Does anyone have a glass screen protector on their V20?

[flyingkytez]

I've owned two V20's. The first one I bought when it came out (the LG-US996 unlocked model), I installed a full coverage tempered glass screen protector (the PThink brand). However, the top portion of the second screen near the front camera never adhered properly even after a second install... Therefore I concluded the phone's glass was warped. Bought a 2nd V20 and the glass is 100% flat and it installed perfectly. Did anyone else encounter that problem? What screen protector do you have and is it full coverage? I might get a different V20 but scared it might have the same problem...

This is the best one and I have tried many. No rainbow, full coverage, sticks right to the glass entirely and has great response.

Nice, that's the exact one I have. A VERY good brand.. the glass is very scratch resistant and lasts a long time.. perfect fit too. Almost a year now and it looks good still! Superb manufacturing quality.. I think it's more scratch resistant than the Gorilla Glass 4 that's on the V20...

I've had the VZW version since day 1. I don't mind the partial coverage. I do wish it were fingerprint resistant but I've never seen ANY screen that really is despite oleophobic coatings.

Mine is as resistant as the bare glass to fingerprints.

Many especially the zizo are far worse than the bare screen

I have dry skin and don't eat greasy food but every phone I've ever used is covered with fingerprints within an hour of cleaning it cover glass or not.

I personally don't use them. I am careful with my phones and the Gorilla Glass should be ample to protect my device whether it's tucked in my pants pocket or sitting on my desk.

As long as you dont mind scratches

Yeah, the phone honestly is rated military grade and can withstand drops. Gorilla Glass 4 & 5 is more scratch prone than the old Gorilla Glass 3, however more drop and shatter resistant. People like us have OCD and would like to keep their phones in pristine condition especially if planning to keep the phone for many many years.

I used to have partial coverage and the unprotected screen was scratched, although I took care of it and was careful. GG4 is easy to scratch. Oleophobic coatings will wear down eventually, regardless of what you do. There is a glass wax they sell on Amazon that bring back the smoothness of the glass and oil resistance.

Have had no problems with scratches on any of my devices so far.

What is this glass wax on Amazon? I'd be interested in purchasing it.

If you do purchase it and try it, report back and let us know how it is. I haven't tried it but heard good things about it.

I'm somewhat anal about keeping my screen clean. haven't used a screen protector for either my v20 or g2. No scratches yet.

I'm telling you guys. Get the one I got. Try it. I was surprised at how good it is. Literally the only downside is the LG logo being somewhat obscured.

I have it too and it's the best hands down. It's over a year now and the glass still looks good.

Use a bright LED flashlight and tilt it at an angle.. it's there for sure.
