the screen polarization is a deal breaker

[richard dillon1]

I just installed spigen crystal screen protector and my screen is noticeable brighter and the screen protector is the best. Look very thin and easy bubble free installed. You don't even know that screen protector on top. Highly recommend.

Link please

I stopped buying polarizing sunglasses because there are so many LCDs in my life.

Most LCD TVs are polarized as well, to reduce glare and reflections. It's normal.

Polarization is the nature of LCD (the way the liquid crystals line up), not directly related to glare or reflection reduction.

But most ppl don't wear their sunglasses to watch TVs either

So are you saying that this screen protector negates the polarization issue?

I saw the example that a circular polarization filter stops the screen darkening effects of polarized sunglasses, but polarization filters for cameras also reduce the overall light.

I want the HTC 10, but my HTC ONE M8 drives me nuts with the polarization issue. A deal breaker for now.

Or, you could buy sunglasses with polarisation that matches the screen. They're not that hard to find. I found some for $10 and they look just like Wayfarers.

Lol...some of the reasons as to why you people will return a phone are beyond me!

htc 10

Lol, not to trivialise this issue, it really isn't an issue in the UK.

Still no sign of phone's in the UK, is it just the USA at the moment? Any other country got them?

Just like in the Foggy Albion, not an issue here in seattle lol

A film won't change the way the screen polarization interacts with sunglasses. If it's at the same angle, it won't affect it, if it's 90 degrees off, then it will block the screen.

Actually, if the film is 45° polarized, it would sort of "twist" horizontally polarized light and allow some through vertically polarized sunglasses. See the picture below (from this article).
