Put one on a couple nights ago on my wife's phone, I only ordered 1 because i figured I could use both for both our phones...wrong! ruined the first one with dust and trying to line it up multiple times. Got the second to line up ok and it seems to not be bothered by her Speck case. Now debating if I want to order another one for my phone or maybe just get the Nano or the Ultra Crystal.

I'll say this much, that night I put it on it had a little tack to it probably from the front peel off protector and I was a little put off by it but felt it last night and the tack was gone and it felt pretty smooth. Clarity wise it is very clear, we'll see how well it holds up.

Installed today. Pretty easy to apply.

Now got problem with TPU-cases :(

Peeling from corners when putting phone in.

Might have to cut it a bit smaller.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lightpsycho:
Daaahh geez....! So much for using that protector with the Kraken then! I guess I'll just use some generic crappy one until (well...rather if) Spigen releases a glas.T for the S3...here is a message I got from them after asking about it and stating that I read on XDA that they would be releasing one...

Hi, my name is Diana from Spigen.com

Thank you for your interest in our products! We are currently in the process of considering the production of the GLAS.t however, nothing has been determined or confirmed by our manufacturers at the moment. We will know more details by the end of the month

Alas, it's not a fully negative answer...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] f16pilot:
I switched to a leather flip case that allows the phone to be propped up on its side with a built in stand. I really like it because it protects the phone's corners, the back (including the camera), and most importantly, the front. It's called the mini-suit. I've tried the Aegis, the Rock Quicksand, Boxwave aluminum and few others...the mini-suit is my favorite so far.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Kawirider1228:
So is the common consensus that TPU cases don't agree with this protector?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zardoz99:
I'm not sure it's even the TPU cases. I have the curved installed on my S3 and I get the feeling that it's very close to correct but it really needs a little more grip on the curved edges. While it feels easy enough to apply, getting the curves to match exactly is very hard indeed.

Until a tempered glass one comes out in the UK, these will have to do. The glass ones look really nice but cost an arm and a leg to buy/import.

Hey guys, I'm confused as to what the purpose of these screen protectors are? This phone comes with Gorilla Glass 2 which is highly scratch resistant, so what's the point really? Not trying to be a troll...honest question.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatonjb:
this just came out last night

http://lifehacker.com/5937324/your-keys-arent-scratching-your-smartphone-its-the-sand-in-your-pocket

long story short, its resistant , but not perfect
[Galaxy S III Accessories] soulzero:
Reading declarations on here this appears to be the story: the S1 and S2 were literally unscratchable. (I have them both and it's true except for microscratches but you can't tell there there anyway unless you cleaned your screen and really are looking for them)

But word is that the S3 screen is an lot more scratchable. So I'm not taking any chances on this.

my screen has a 1/2" scratch on it, and i havent a clue where it came from.

What about the "hinge technique", placing tape centered on the top side, do you think it would work?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mav3rick478:
I hinged it from the side, actually used the messed up first protector out of frustration lol. Next one I'm gonna try hinging from the top.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] zardoz99:
Just submitted this review to the manufacturers web site for the "Curved Crystal".

Value	3/5

Quality	4/5

Design	4/5

Pros: The shape is novel and is certainly an improvement on the screen protectors that don't cover the whole screen. It's very clear and feels nice on the finger tips. Functionally it works as expected.

Cons: It's quite hard to get the alignment correct to match the curves of the screen to the curves in the screen protector. It might have been better if the home button and the slot at the top were a tighter fit to ensure better registration. The adhesive is simply not strong enough to prevent the edges lifting away from the bevelled edges. This is especially true if used with a official Samsung TPU gel case Also, the corners have a tendency to lift and allow air in to form new bubbles. Very close examination shows that the protector does crease right at the very edge of the corners, so placing them under enough stress to lift. There is about a 1mm gap between the edge of the protector and the edge of the glass, so it's not 100% coverage.

Having said all this, it's the best we have at the moment, so we have to live with it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kms108:
3D mask film from www.skinplayer.co.kr has better coverage, little more expensive that the spg.

easy to apply.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Biker1:
I also had the corners eventually lift after applying the 1st Crystal Clear. I screwed up the 2nd application, so I'm gonna forget about this screen protector for now. $20 wasted.

I don't use cases because I want to keep the S3's slim factor intact.

But I was in the Sprint store the other day working on an eticket regarding an Auto Rotation failure, and I saw the rep sporting one of these:

http://www.wirelessground.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-s-iii-flip-cover-blue.html

I was impressed, as he let me check it out,

I'll post a thread about it, if one is not already posted.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] irock1985:
Ideally for a screen protector like this one we need a 2 piece hard case 1 piece front and 2nd piece back. That way the case would actually help hold down the protecter.... Unfortunately I haven't seen one of these yet :cool:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] raiderep:
Man I was hoping this would work with the commuter but no dice :( Maybe a two piece would work. I also tried my mercury pearl and the edges just keep bubbling up or plain raising on the top and bottom...I am thinking I just through away twenty bucks...time to try the protector that came with my otterbox...

Installed the second one today with the hinge-technique(Thx for that btw!)

This time I taped the edges with clear packaging tape to prevent it from peeling off. Does not look good but I use s3 with case only so not that important.

Then I was thinking it would have been much easier just to tape the edges with normal screen protector :)

Hoping that there will be this kind of protector which covers the whole screen and goes along with cases.

So maybe not the best one if you gonna use TPU-cases!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] NvigR8:
I've been using this screen protector for about a week with no issues at all. It was as easy to put on as any other (using great care) fits perfect, Crystal clear and has no tack after the first day or so. I've had no peeling edges but I'm also using a case that covers the edges. Said case is the Seidio active case which I have come to really enjoy. It is my recommendation for a compatible case. It also maintains the thin form factor to some degree which a recent poster was concerned about.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatonjb:
just installed mine as of a min ago. easy to do, no bubble, just a tiny thin hair that shows no bubble, just got sucked in there, so i am happy with it. i hope it does not peal in my waterproof case like the Zagg one did!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] side808:
Just installed mines today. Screwed up the first one so I had to use the second. Seriously how the hell are you supposed to get a crystal clear screen protector on perfect on a white galaxy phone. It was near impossible to see it on the screen during installation.

It does look good on the phone. Doesn't work too well with my body glove case though. I see just a bit of lifting on one of the edges. I hope it doesn't lift too much.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] AVTR1337:
damn, i hope i will get mine soon. It's easy as hell to screw those screen protectors up, so hopefully i won't then. They're pretty expensive
[Galaxy S III Accessories] NQTrung:
I got this one and it fits perfectly. No issues at all! Definitely recommend!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatonjb:
so far, day 2. All I use is a rubber bumper that I really like , it seems to stay on, sometimes i see a little lift on the edge, just push it down, im ok. but like i said, only day 2.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
What a worthless piece of ****:mad::mad:.

Those idiots have placed the front/back sticker both on the front side, wtf:sly:

So it was impossible to remove the backfilm without touching the protector and bending it.

Wasted both because they had the same fault...

just use cellotape, that will sort the problem out, or just contact them to send a replacement.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
I used tape, but it didn't gave a good result.

Also the protector doesn't stick right at the curved edges, so waste of money besides the problem with the stickers.

Already contacted reseller about it though.

Reviving dead thread just to say I've tried a few protectors.. xoskins and tech armor..

And this blows them both away.. no annoying edges to look at.. actual FULL coverage.. I might as well buy a few more cause I'm sticking with these.

And a quick thanks to whoever came up with the hinge method.. youre a damn genius

Thanks..xD

Been using this for almost a week.looks like I didn't put any screen protector. It toil 10 days of shipping. It covers 95% of 4 sides
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eatonjb:
it has lifted from the corner from time to time., just push it back, and get the bubbles out.. its the price you pay when it is at the edge!~
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dvaderx:
loved the ultra crystal on the droid x, but not so much on my s3

I have the boxwave case, which works well with the sgp flex hd protector. but i didn't like that one because you can see

"micro-wrinkles" in it. and it feels to rubbery-ish

i liked the feel, look and performance on my DX for the UC, so when a curved version came out, i jumped on it..

but yeah it sucks with my case, all the corners are coming up and the home button/usb port part is perm up now.

waste of money if you have that style of case.

i think if they would have made it a little bit larger it would have worked better.

going to look for a new case and / or protector

edit: i forgot to complain about my installation.

it turns out my protector was sandwiched between 2 protective layers, so i peeled the back off as i put on the protector, got it on, and then peeled off the "front" sticker.

only to realize a day layer, there was another full layer of film on top of the protector.. not sure if it's a QC issue or they are all like that, but it wasn't like that on the DX

and why when i peeled off the front sticker did the front protective layer come with it? i don't recall seeing that in the docs either.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rawfish:
Received my Curved Crystal today, and with a bit of standard preparation it's so easy to apply. Going along well with the Otterbox Commuter too, and so far no incidents of bubbly edges or peeling have happened though within a period of just a day. I'm sure it'll remain sticky, being a great combo together with the case. Otherwise, I'm happy to report it back here.

The surface is sufficiently protected, with around like 0.5mm to 0.7mm of empty space around the perimeter remaining. No big deal, with or without the case. Only time would tell, of any oleophobic properties, however I'm prepared for the customary grease and I'm against anything that could compromise visual clarity.

Visibility-wise it's ultra clear, with no rainbow-ey effects when viewed straight or at an angle. I'm still able to view the fine pixels on the S3's display. I don't find it as smooth as the original glass, as what others reportedly feel. When a little pressure + surface gliding akin to popping a whitehead is tested, you should experience a bit of plastic-ky friction with the expected sound, though it's a vast improvement over the other A- to B+ grade brands out there. To Swype or SlideIT users, it's fantastic.

One thing I wish to point out is, since it's so thin you will need extra care when handling its application over the screen. I can't emphasize this enough. I somehow accidentally had the film bent at the middle, causing a permanent 5mm v-shaped crease. Upon complete installation, it's still left visible. Nevertheless, after ironing it out with the freebie squeegee, the crease smoothed out great! It's still there if you really try hard to find it, otherwise it's a-okay for daily use!

Hope you find this mini review useful. It's great to live life on the edge.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dvaderx:
i wanted to update on my setup.

i ordered the speck candyshell case and used my last curved ultra crystal. and to my surprise it's perfect.

i got the UC on and then put my case and hoped for the best..

that was 3 days ago, so far no bubbles, no lifted corners or anything.. if it holds up then i'll be a happy camper!

I have the Steinheil Curved Crystal and really do love it. Unfortunately, putting it in the pocket has cause some scratches and smudges that couldn't be removed.

For those using the curved crystal, do you have a pouch/sleeve to house the phone from scratches? I only used a ROCK case, so the SP was still vulnerable to scratches..
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Badelhas:
I have the acase superleggera pro case and because of the lip I have no scratches on my curved crystal screen protector.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] BarnOwl:
I also use the same screenprotector and of the cases I own (cheap black Ebay case, Spigen Neo Hybrid, blue original Samsung and Musubo Retro case) the Musubo one comes out as the best. Not only does it prevent the edges of the SP to curl up but it also is the most protective case. It's only 13mm wide and offers equal or more protection then the Otterbox Defender like cases.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] ken147:
I've had mine on for 2 months and gradually the screen peels from the top of the phone and especially the home button area. In the colder months you will notice the protector coming off the mentioned areas. Initially it was a good protector but it doesn't have the lasting durability.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] seonny:
Wow that sucks, especially for such an expensive screen protector. I originally thought the adhesive was really strong too (at least compared to cheapo ebay ones)

Mine has little dents and is full of lint under the home button. I put it 3 months ago only.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 123qwesz:
Thanks for the recommendation! I was hoping to get a pouch for my S3 as whenever I place the phone in my jeans, there will always be scratches. Hoping to get a leather pouch, but I have no idea which kinds can house the S3 along with my ROCK casing....

That really looks great. Thankx for bringing it up.

I have got mine with ultra clear as well and it really is crystal clear, you can hardly feel it being there. I bought it from ebay too, free shipping but not from them, I did buy it from gearmaxx and serves pretty well. Got a good deal too and was shipped for free like yours.

You all complaining about slow downloads and whatnot, if you were following tech sites you would have seen that a bunch or major DNSchanger servers were being shut down.

In November 2011, the FBI and authorities from other countries arrested the crime ring behind the malware; however, they were faced with a problem about how to fix the millions of PCs that have been infected with the malware. For these systems, their DNS server settings will continually revert to point to the rogue DNS network, even if they are manually changed by the user. Therefore, in order to keep affected people online, the FBI kept the rogue DNS network active, and only converted it to be a legitimate DNS service.

Without you guys, this community probably wouldn't exist in the capacity it does today.
