Note 7 Tempered Glass Screen Protector

[calicocat2010]

I have the Sparin full-coverage tempered glass (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5349053) installed with a Ringke Air case (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5349053) and they work beautifully together. No lifting - plus it's virtually impossible to install it wrong!

edit: I just read the reviews on Amazon, and frankly they baffle me. It fit perfectly, touch is great, it sticks fine and the pen works as expected. Obviously I've only had it installed for less than a day, but, so far, so good. I couldn't be happier.

edit 2: here's a closeup of the side showing the gap between the Sparin curved glass and the Ringke case. The top is flush, but doesn't push the glass.

Maybe you should leave a Positive review on there.

I'm going to take your word for it and either get the Rinke or Spigen, however, there are too many Spigen's to choose from lol, and the Sparin TG.

I just got to buy the phone first.

I may have spoke too soon. All of a sudden, I couldn't swipe down to get the setup options. It turns out, it was because the case was pushing ever-so-slightly on the top of the tempered-glass. I removed the case, and it's fine now.

I'm going to try to use a razor to trip the case - it won't take much trimming, but for now, there is a minor issue, at least with the case.

Edit: I see what happened. The tempered-glass slid up a very small amount, but enough to hit the case. When I took the case off, I saw the glass wasn't perfectly centered (top to bottom) - it was a little high, so I gently pushed it down from the top. It's lined up again, but there are a few hairline cracks in the glass near the top now.

As others on Amazon indicated, the Sparin glass lacks enough adhesive and can move around a bit. Not sure it's the best alternative. I may just use plastic for now.

Let me know if after 12 hours it stops peeling. I might go back to Best Buy monday and have them put another one on, but i'll let it sit for 24 hours and see if that helps. Idk what else to do but the peeling is annoying.

Sorry for not searching but has anyone put a non curved tempered glass cover on? Does it look dumb that the edges are not covered? I got non temp glass screen protector just to get me by as I didn't really see any good ones on amazon as of yet but the curved non-glass one sucked.

I installed the flat Xtreme Guard Spartan tempered glass a couple of hours ago.


Pros:
Case Friendly
Offers some protection to the front of the screen.

Cons:
Very narrow coverage area.
Does not feel as slick as the screen or my previous tempered glass protector on my old phone. (Harder to do things that require you to drag your finger around. E.g. 'swipe to text'. This may work itself out with use.)
My install haloed pretty badly. (My last tempered glass install, albeit I used a different brand on my Note 4, did not halo. Not sure if this is the fault of this screen protector or not. But worth mentioning.)


I was too nervous to continue going without anything on the screen, and it's more or less what I expected, so I can live with it for right this moment until I can find a viable alternative.

My install haloed pretty badly.

I suspect that any glass that doesn't extend to the edge would halo badly - just the nature of the glass edge. Unfortunately, that may be the only option for glass on the N7.

I purchased a curved tempered protector from verizon and it is PERFECT. covers edges, looks great, works well with pen. Definitely the best option right now. Downside: $24 with 25% off

Sparin curved and colored glass. Mated with Spigen Tough Armor case..

Works well for me. But, what works for me, might be a disaster for someone else..

Zagg is making glass for the Note 7. I am sure it will work fine even with a case.

Thought the same thing until Zagg finally came out with a gs7 edge tempered glass. If you like space between your screen and glass go for it. Haven't seen one decent screen protector yet for the note 7. If anyone on here finds one please share. Zaggs HD screen is to big. Speck case will touch it....

Does this tempered glass have only adhesive on the 4 corners and not over entire glass?

Can you confirm this after 12/24 hours? No peeling, full adherence to the screen? Could you possibly provide a photo?

IMO, the CURVED temp glass is the way to go. The curved glass takes away all the placement problems. Also, IMO, the CASE has a big part on how the glass fits. With case A glass fits perfect. With case B, the fit is horrible. IMO, that is why we are hearing so many different outcomes with temp glass on the Note 7.

The tempered glass protectors only have adhesive on the top and bottom - there is no adhesive above the LCD screen. That's why none will stay on very long.

I have the Zagg HD InvisibleShield on, installed perfectly by a young kid at BestBuy. It's perfect. However, I let it dry and attempted to put it into a Tech 21 Evo Frame--a DISASTER! the case kept wrinkling up the bottom side of the Zagg InvisibleShield! It's being returned to BB

How about this one from Zizo? Has anyone tried this brand before?

Where did you buy the official Samsung screen protector? I don't see it on Samsung's website to order.

 

[sschluter]

also wondering where to click "buy".... wtf?

 

[Cappaccinodagreat]

I bought the same case, the clear version and added the Pure-Gear Extreme Impact screen protector. All is good on my end.
