I use my Note 7 a lot each day, one thing that amazes me is how resistant the screen is to fingerprints and oil. My previous phone was a HTC One M8 and as soon as you touch the screen once or twice it's coated in oil from your fingers, I had to wipe that phone down so many times it drove me nuts. I was curious what about the Note 7 screen made it so resistant. I'm not typically a screen protector guy, so to have that kind of fingerprint/oil resistance on Note 7 with no screen protector was one of the best features of the phone for me.
I've yet to trade mine in as it's taken me a while to decide what to do about having a replacement phone I'm more than happy with, as I await the Samsung 8 variations which sound like they will look and perform amazing. I was curious as I look into the 2017 phones, what I should consider as far as screen specs, as I'm not really sure what makes the Note 7 screen the perfect match for me.
Is it simply Corning glass 5 ? The super amoled Note display ? Dose the Corning 5 glass or super amoled display have some sort of oleophobic coating or something ?
Also, if I need to get a screen protector to somewhat replicate the amazing anti fingerprint and oil resistance of the Note 7 screen on my Note 5, should I just be focusing on ones that state they are oleophobic or some other feature as well ?
Do only tempered glass screen protectors have the oleophobic coating or do non glass protectors have it also ?
I tried to research the Corning glass 5 and Note 7 screen and haven't found may answers. Currently I still have the Note 7 like I said, but picked up a refurbished Note 5 via Groupon black Friday sale, relieved when it came in that it was in flawless condition and fast charged. However while the Note 5 screen is very nice, it does collect finger prints and oil more so than the Note 7, no where near as bad as the HTC One M8 though. Was also confused what type of screen protector to get as I don't use them typically, it's just hard to use another phone aside form Note 7 and for me and not have the amazing fingerprint/oil resistance.
Thank so much in advance for any replies,
Tony!
