where did you find them at 4 bucks a pop...just hit the website (yeah I know that's the worst spot) they had them at 35
ill be d@mned.
I managed to peel my one off too using a square razor blade to pry it up in the corner. It took a few attempts to get it right.
So pleased I came across this thread coz my screen got real scratched up in my pocket only a few days after purchasing. Thought i was gonna have to live with this nasty *** scratch for good.
Now I'm just waiting for the polycarb replacement screen from samsung, i will put a gorilla glass screen on top once installed.
The thing is that the polycarbonate one offers much more shatter protection than the aftermarket screen protectors. You can't really even tell it's on there so most of use who are putting on a glass protector are doing it mainly to prevent scratches on the protective shield. With that shield the Active survives extreme drops as mentioned on these forums.Still waiting for them to be available last time I called...
But ya, im sure most complaints about messed up screens could probably be fixed by just removing the factory screen protector cause it's soft and sometimes the adhesion messes up too.
If I use an aftermarket protector, I'd rather take the polycarb one off first because part of the design to protect the screen is that it's recessed slightly below the rubber lip. And I don't like the idea of putting a screen protector on top of a screen protector.
Has anyone taken the poly layer completely off yet?
Now all those bite marks are gone and there's a pristine screen I have now. Wondering if I should order the factory replacement or go with a third party screen protector. Don't like the idea of a screen protector on top of another screen protector.
Several months late to the conversation but just purchased an S7 Active Friday as a replacement (or carry over until the next Note) for my turned in Note 7s! The AT&T Screen Protector Specialist attempted to install a BodyGuardz on it for me 'cuz I used them on my Note 7s - would not go on properly. He grabbed a Zagg and I was out the door in 5 minutes!!! Looks great! I'm happy!The bodyguardz glass you buy at att dont properly adhere to the polycarbonate screen. They leave air gaps and allow water under them.
Can confirm this... just peeled off the one on my buddys phone this morning. He had an actual cut in it so we peeled it right off. Just plain glass underneath.
Thanks - good to know! I wonder if that's why so many of (us) have had problems installing other screen protectors? Putting screen protectors on top of screen protectors... ??? I don't think it mentions anywhere in the documentation that they have one from the factory. Thanks again!
I didnt have any trouble installing my protector... on top of the factory one.
