I currently have iPhone X and always used Screen Protectors for all my iPhones in past, I am OCD regarding dust and lints that get stuck between the protectors and the sides of it constantly cleaning it. I have my Note 9 ready to be picked up in Best Buy. But was reading several forums, reviews and here also that with curve screens several SP don't stick. My both brothers, father and some friends have Samsung phones from S8+ to Note 9, and none of them use Screen Protector. My SP on my Iphone X already has several scratches and it does not bother me but I am worried if its on the actual screen maybe my OCD.

Do any of you use SP? I did order a Spigen Liquid Protector I understand it can be snake oil, but heard it is actually good against scratches, I never dropped my phone (knock on wood) in the past. I am very careful but scratches can happen even just putting it in the pocket.

Do any of you use your Note 9 without a SP?

I won't put a screen protector on my Note 9. For me it ruins the best display in the world! I wouldn't cover it up with anything.

Yes it is a fantastic display but with curves its also one of the most expensive to replace.

That and scratches can occur.

From all I've seen the Whitestone Dome does not adversely affect the user experience.

I had it on my note 8 and never got a scratch. My brother actually cracked his from a drop and they paid for a new screen. Cost him no money or of pocket. I haven't gotten to the store to pick one up for my note 9 just yet. I have a caseology protector on right now.

Yes it does. Whitestone Dome is a finger print magnet. I put one on my wife's Note 9 and it's horrible. You see every little touch and looks filthy to the point where I removed it. There is no type of coating on it like there is in the actual display.

I have heard about problems with that product even if it's the best one out there it show's a lot about protectors with curve display's. Do you use a Screen Protector on yours?

I would never use a device without a screen protector. I got the Whitestone Dome glass screen protector on Amazon. It has an adhesive that's applied directly to the screen and it covers the entire screen protector, unlike those worthless Zagg protectors. The kit is $60 on Amazon, but it comes with two tempered glass screen protectors and everything you need to apply them to your phone. It's well worth the money.

You must've got a lemon because my Whitestone glass screen protector doesn't show much, if any, fingerprints.

I personally don't use screen protectors. I pay 9$ a month for insurance, so if I break it I can have a screen repair or next day replacement.

I use SP. I've tried Armor Suit, Skinomi, IQ Shield, Spigen, Zagg and a few not so popular brands. I've gotten maybe 3-6 months out of them and in my experience, none have been consistent.
