Will all Note 4 Tempered Glass Screen Protectors have this "Halo" effect?

[felloffthetruck]

This sucks as tempered glass is the first thing I install on my new phones.

 

[Almeuit]

Oh wow it does .... I guess for this those curves kind of suck ... They feel sexy though.

I wonder if they plan to fix it? Hm.... @felloffthetruck -- Did you try asking them about it?

I purchased 6 glass screen protectors. 2 from invellop (they didnt even cover the usable part of the screen completely and issued me a refund). 2 from orzly (halo effect). 2 from tech armor (Halo affect but they demand to see a picture of it and I tell them that my only camera is the Note 4 so i cant provide one). I even bought regualr PET fil screen protectors. None fit at tall.

haha so that was YOUR review i just read on amazon lmao

 

[jayochs]

and i honestly can't beleive some companies saying "oh we just leanred it's a curved screen."

REALLY? the 2.5d screen tech has been mentioned since november. are these companies blindly manufactoring product without even a dummy device to base it off of? crazy.

When they say they're "fixing" it, I will bet you that they are just making it smaller so it only covers the flat part.

The Spigen seems to fit the best since it's intentionally smaller than the screen but it still isn't perfect, hopefully spigen handles it well an I won't have to use the amazon a-g guarantee thing, I ordered 3 glas tr slims and I'm not gonna ship it back on my dime.

Take a phone selfie in the mirror.

That sucks! But man, that black note looks sick! Can't wait for mine!

I bought the invelop on amazon, it is a little narrow compared to the usable screen but barely. No hallo effect because it does not cover all the way to the edges. It'll do for now.

Wow...iloome with the very clever solution here! Not even Spigen had this idea! Way to go, iloome!!!! Gotta look into this. Might be the perfect solution for my Note 4. I ordered some plastic screen protectors last night, but would rather have tempered glass like my Note 3.

The top (face) of them has the curved edges, the bottom (sticky) part is still flat.

So, it's not curved like their iPhone 6 products with iloome's 'CurveProtect Technology'?

Wow. That would be awesome if it is.. I've tried tons of glass screen protectors on 2.5D screens after seeing the "curved" edges, but all of them were flat on the bottom.. I will buy this one if it truly fits edge to edge.

How do you know this? I thought they weren't even available yet.
Reference the curved iPhone 6 protector.

I have ordered an iloome as well. I am inclined to think they might have the best shot at a "proper" fit. But I really won't know until I have the phone and the screen protector and try it.

Really phone accessories to me are much like aftermarket car accessory manufacturers. The phone/car manufacturer spends thousands of man hours to design and spec each component of their end product and the aftermarket accessory manufactures might spend a few hundred man hours if that. Much of what they do is take their basic technology and apply it to the specific car or phone. We need their stuff but much of what we are left doing often comes down to trial and error. Not complaining. It is what it is.

My expectation has always been that I might have to poke around a bit and try a few things to get stuff I like especially if I am a relatively early adopter.

That's exactly what I meant - so it's just speculation so far. That's a bit of a relief

 

[Android4life47]

Why would they only make the top part round knowing that the whole screen of the note 4 is round this doesn't make any sense???? I will wait to see it myself when I get it next week

 

[jtaclas]

Yup, ordered the Spigen Crystal, and it looked hideous. Going without a screen protector right now.
