iloome Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector - Premium Flexible Glass Review

[donb2010]

Just wanted to share my thoughts on the iloome Premium Flexible Glass Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector. I've had it on for a few days now and I really like it so far, I previously had the BodyGuardz HD Anti-Glare ScreenGuardz for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 on, but found it to be too "rough" to the touch, not smooth and also was kinda blurry to the sight. On the other hand the iloome is super smooth and crystal clear, really easy to install and I did it without any bubbles or dust (proud of myself). Anyone else have the iloome or BodyGuardz? share the same opinion?

That's good to know. How does it work with the S-Pen? I'm had some screen protectors cause the S-Pen to kind of catch or stick just enough to be annoying.

I have the iloome on mine as well. Love it! Super smooth writing with the Spen and it's crystal clear.

Waiting for mine to get here on Thursday... hope I don't mess up on installing it I read that you only get one chance to put it on

I have the iLoome Flex and the Mime Feather Glass on two different Note 3s. The iloome is the thinnest glass protector and when applied is barely noticeable. It is very smooth and has no effect on the S Pen or touch sensitivity. On the other device, the Mime is slightly, but noticeably thicker. Since the edges are rounded, it feels smoother on the edges. They are equally smooth for writing. As far as fit, the iLoone covers the front camera and sensor, the Mime has it cut out. pros and cons for either on coverage. The advantage of the Mime is better scratch resistance (the iLoome does show scratches) and the Mime has a better oleohobic coating. I consider either a top notch product - just with different advantages.

^ Thanks for the comparison.

Just got the iloome and it's better than I thought it would be. It's so clear and smooth you can't really tell it's there if you find something better than this please let me know!!!!!! :thumbup:

I have had the I-Ioome for more than a few weeks and love it. One massive problem though. Why is no one else calling out this company for the massive fallacy that this item is fingerprint resistant? It is by far the most fingerprint prone screen protector I have ever used. I have to wipe it clean every and I mean every single time I pick up the phone - this surface is a forensic specialist's dream. The protector installed amazingly easy with absolutely no bubbles. A bit thick and noticeable heavy for my taste but I guess this bodes well from a protection perspective. It is crystal clear, to the point you don't even know its there, and really smooth - works well with fingers and S-pen. However, it is a serious finger print magnet. Don't get me wrong, it is a great product and I am certainly glad I got it. I just find it equal parts ironic and amusing that the one and only complaint I have is touted as a feature by the company.

You must have some very oily skin I do not have any issues with finger prints on the screen whatsoever

I have seen a few others talk about fingerprints (other forums), just not as much as I would have thought and I doubt the tip of my fingers have that much more oil than regular folks if any. I have brought 4 people to my desk and demonstrated this as a joke. Showed them them the I-loome website and the list of features, took two fingers and tapped the screen in the four corners. Whole screen full of fingerprints. They all laughed in disbelief...

I bet but I do have to say that the finger print is not an issue but when I do make a call and look at the screen that's when I see all the nasty oil on the screen guess there is more oil on some ones face than their fingers lol

We have it for both of our N3 and so far loving it. It came in the mail the day I picked up our phones from Verizon & Best Buy. No fingerprint issues whatsoever. I will wipe down the screen occasionally but that's because sometimes I'm using the phone while cooking. Also noticed the spen didn't work so well on the 1st day but after that it writes as if I don't have a screen protector on. Overall no one can tell I have it on and a few of the employees from Best Buy complimented how good it looks.

Hmmm..interesting, no fingerprint issues. I am starting to wonder if mine is defective in some way. When I say fingerprint magnet it looks really bad, the worst I have ever seen in a screen protector. Everything else is perfect. I will try to post a pic.

Out of curiosity I Googled Amazon reviews for the protector. This review caught my eye. It seems like different users are having different experiences...interesting...

I have messed up every screen protector on every phone i have had and believe me thats alot...this product was simple to install just follow directions you can actually hold it on the sides to make aligning it simple since its not a piece of film.No bubbles at all...woo hoo..first time for me.. as for finger prints and smudging well that is where the problem lies its horrible..im not hitting it with a hammer so i will just believe the 9h rating is good enough.. i looked it up and it says it can take a hammer strike once again not gonna do it...at $27.00 it seems a little pricey but its not its a forever product. So get this first time around and your done. I would most definitely buy it again. I reccomend..I HAVE EDITED MY REVIEW BECAUSE THE FINGER PRINTS AND SMUDGES ARE THE WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN!!
