Another vouch for the Nillkin 9H Hardness Tempered Glass Screen Protector. I purchase mine from here and received it today. The application was easy, the edges as very nicely rounded, and the home button isn't recessed too much. I'd definitely recommend it.

I have the same issue with the I-loome.. After about two months, my I-loome protector, which was perfect otherwise, started to loose adhesive on the left top corner. Now I have this ugly spot about two inches long on the left side of my screen. Needless to say, I am very disappointed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dr.m0x:
My Illome also didn't stick too well. Both top corners would start peeling away from the screen whenever it was warm. In my pocket or in the sun. Had no issues at all with my Nillkin so I guess it's a little bit hit and miss.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] neyenlives:
My Bear Motion is still rocking solid. It's got several small scratches on it. Let's be honest, I'm a machinist and it gets covered in abrasive dust from grinding and stainless steel shavings all over it..... I am impressed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] asctony:
Do we really need Tempered Glass since the Note 3 has Gorilla Glass?

Yes.

Finally got my Note 3 (from sg3) and I love it. Anyone who has the Slim armor have any issues with the tempered glass on the edges?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Lunarskye23:
So I've had a cheap 7 dollar tempered glass protector on for about three weeks now and love it. Went on so much easier then the thin plastic ones. I have the Same Issue As A Few others with the upper left corner not staying adhered. It's pretty small right now and I don't notice it, but I'd rather spend 7 bucks on ebay then 20 to 40 for a supposed better quality one. Let's face it...glass is glass. My dad has the note 3 and the I lome one or whatever for 25 bucks and it's exactly the same. Unless someone can prove to me why the expensive ones are better then the cheap ones...other then brand name...Then I say save ur money and get a cheap one.

I bought the Nillkin 9H after using an SPG Ultra Crystal for a few weeks. The Ultra Crystal has been my protector of choice for years going back to the OG Evo. It is super-durable and feels great when swiping, but easily shows fingerprints and oils, the only downside.

That's not the case with the Nillkin. The amount of screen prep seemed almost excessive, but I followed the directions and did not need to lift up to remove any dust.

Easiest protector I have ever applied. Not a single air bubble, just instant 100% adherence. It has nice beveled edges and keeps the stitching on the official S View cover from contacting the bezel due to its thickness, unlike the SPG.

My only complaint is the packaging. The plastic "card" (with cutouts to hold/pinch the protector in place in the box) cracked the top edge of the glass. It's only a few mm and not worth exchanging, but pretty annoying and due solely to the packaging. A simple paper/cardboard sleeve would have prevented this, and probably save customers a few bucks too, considering the elaborate box it ships in.

For ~$20 I think this is a great value.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dr.m0x:
I'm rocking the Slim Armor and the Nillkin 9H right now and everything fits perfectly well together.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] paTherion:
I used my N3 without any case/protector for 3 months and nothing happened. Not even a wee scratch. But to be sure I bought Nillkin tempered glass and UAG case. Got it today and it looks fabulous :)

http://activities.aliexpress.com/special_promotion_for_main.php

I bought this:

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Anti...ote-3-N9000-Film-Guard-Retail/1405404294.html

$6.13 - $1 mobile app purchase = $5.13 free s/h

It takes a while to ship from China, about 3-4 weeks. This is my second purchase for our Verizon Galaxy Note 3. We have one on our T Mobile Galaxy Note 3 for a few weeks and it's so good, we bought another. Our first one costed $7.50 :(

Buy the 0.40mm because it's thicker and offers more protection. This is not plastic, it's tempered glass, so it feels like the OEM screen. I bought this as insurance because of this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpsNtuaCfp8

Don't buy the ones that cover the sensors and camera because only super high quality optical grade glass will let in 100% of the light. This is not optical grade glass, so it most likely will not let in 100% of the light, so you could lose a little bit of performance if you cover the sensors and camera. This model does not cover any sensors or camera.

The hardest thing about installing is getting every spec of dust off the screen. Wash hands, do it in the bathroom so you can reduce any wind that will kick up dust. It's not hard to install, just takes patience...about 10min.

It comes with a sticker for the HOME button, but I don't use it because I like it to be recessed so we don't accidentally press it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Mayonesa:
I highly suggest MIME glass screen protector. Love mine. Not one issue
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] hp79:
I got mine for $8.75 from ebay (item 271366040134). Advertised as hardness of 8-9 H and 0.3mm thick which I prefer and think is thinner than other tempered glass. It was still a bit thick and it came in perfect shape, no misalignment or anything. It doesn't cover any sensors, and the home button is covered all the way around. (Some protectors skip the area between bottom edge and home button.)

I had an air cleaner running hard sucking air on my desk for about 10 minutes and had dusted the desk area before I started everything. Washed my hands clean and used strong light so I can see all the dust specks. I also used a air blower that I use for my camera to blow away dust. Got mine perfectly installed without any dust under the screen.

Can i still use the s view cover?

---------- Post added at 04:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 AM ----------

Can i still use s view cover if i put the glass on?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Mayonesa:
I dont see why not. The only thing you would have to check is how the case mounts to the phone. The glass goes right to the edge of the bezel but i think you should be fine. It shouldn't mess with the functions of the cover
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Sam Sung:
I'm considering the Nillkin. I haven't seen mention of anyone using the Smart Stay feature (screen won't turn off when you're looking at it). Has anyone experienced issues with that or other sensor functions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DEEBS808:
I've bought two from eBay and two for my wife's s4. Paid $27 for all. It was our first glass protection and we will never go back to plastic protectors.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Ammarious:
I received my Nillkin from ebay already broken. 9H hardness broken while shipped. I was able to get a full refund . Now looking for a better brand.:rolleyes:

Any of you guys had any experience with Sir Lancelot Holy Grail Screen Protector? Thinking about getting it but would love some input before I do, thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Sam Sung:
Thanks for the heads up. I've read that more than once through this thread, and I haven't committed to one yet. Maybe the iloom flex (8h) is the way to go, since it is a bit thinner and flexible. Also costs about the same as the Nillkin on Amazon (around $16).

My last protector was for an S2, non-glass and very pricey (Seinhall). Even though plastic, It was pretty good quality. It lasted me more than two years. It did, however, collect skin oil and fingerprints in a big way.

Has there been any sensor issues with any of these protectors? I do like that Smart Stay feature...

Is it really better than mate/glossy screen protectors?

Is it really better than mate/glossy screen protectors? I used matte and glossy screen protectors before.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
read through the whole thread, then you will know.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dr.m0x:
It's easy to break any glass protector if you bend our squash it when it's not supported by the rigidly of the phone. Sounds more like bad handling than a bad product
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TheLoonyRebel:
Has any company made glass screen protectors with different colors outside the screen area such as blue? Right now I'm rocking the Caseology Crystal Clear HD Clarity Blue one which is your typical plastic based protector. Would be amazing to have a blue colored protector that is glass based much like I had on my Note 2 made by iCaseGear.\

Edit: Something like this but maybe sold in the USA perhaps?

I've been looking for something like this because I want my glass to look white... Anyone down to try it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Lembo:
Hi,

After over an hour reading this thread I'm think I'm going to go and just stick with Spigen as they haven't let me down (yet).

I don't mind the home button to be receded slightly so I was going to go for the GLAS.t SLIM but I love the rounded edges on the GLAS.T.R SLIM but it's over 10% thicker at .3 which might be too much.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
.3 isn't that thick, you won't notice it, and you don't need to go for a expensive one.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Dabitz:
I just bought this one on Amazon, seems to have good reviews http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GPAFP7W/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I paid $16 w/Prime.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Sam Sung:
Thanks for the heads up! I put it on my wish list to check out later. Looks useful. I also saw your post re;aliexpress:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50733700&postcount=1046

Adding shipping costs (min $10.53?), it looks like it costs as much as some of these other brands (sans Spigen TGlas of similar thickness). Did you find it worth the wait and total cost, i.e., is it that much better than comparable protectors in the U.S.?

Also, I'd be nervous giving them my CC#.

I just ordered the iloom flex for an S4 we have. We'll see how that works out before I order anymore. I just changed carriers, and as a business, had to buy several new phones.

What a racket the cell phone industry is (and increasingly so as time goes on)!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BOOMER_SOONER:
How are you liking the Tech Armor? Anyone else have any experience with this one?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xManMythLegend:
Ive had the MIME and now Bear.

I cant fathom how anyone doesnt get scratches. I baby my phones and dont keep them in pockets with keys etc. The mime was scratched and cracked mysteriously twice. The bear 3 days later already has a scratch about one inch.

Unless Gorilla Glass comes out with one I dunno.

Its a shame all the gorilla glass progress still cant stop these micro scratches that appear on "Stock" glass.

eForcity Tempered Glass SP on sale at Newegg

Just came across this Newegg Flash sale. It's $6.99 plus free shipping. I know the brand, but haven't bought any of their products before. But I figured I would give them a try since i've been wanting a glass screen protector for a while but I thought they were too expensive. I'll order one and let you guys know if it's any good.

nillkin has been commentated as a good replacement for plastic protectors, i'm using the JZ one, even the people at nillkin say it's better, this is the site www.jz-glass.cn the site may be in chinese, or look back post 995 and the prices is very similar to the nillkin, but i'm afraid it's not available online.

Slim Armor View

Has anyone used a tempered glass screen guard with the Spigen Slim Armor View? Would hate to get a glass and have it break due to the cover or not be able to close the cover due to the glass. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] apallohadas:
I had a slim armor view and a tempered glass protector. The fit is fine.

Only downside is that the Slim Armor view has a few bugs to work out.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] frostxinfinity:
I absolutely love this screen protector. Using stylus on my Note 8 with a regular ZAGG screen protector is uncomfortable because of the way it sticks. This tempered glass one is easier to clean, feels like your real screen, and makes it fun to use the stylus! Doesn't blur screen at all being that it's glass :p
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babak:

I got the same one.. Had it for two days and while getting out of the car it slipped off my lap. Crscked the top coner of the glass but my main screen is good. It applied easily but I did notice smudges where it says its anti fingerprint
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babak:
Thank for your replay,but do not think I can do with my hands, it seems pretty solid.

Yesterday I paid for a Spigen GLAS.tR (http://www.amazon.it/dp/B00DD5TWXK/ref=pe_386201_41597321_TE_item), but I'm afraid I made a mistake, only after I discovered that is 0.4 mm thick and I would not have a problem with the thickness and s pen :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
use you finger nails at the edge and lift, then slowly pull up, the base of the glass protector is a adhesive coat so it should come off in one piece.

It took me a few times to get my protector on and off because of lint and dust.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babak:
Thanks my friend :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
my protector is in post 995, you can look back.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babak:
what do you mean exactly?

unfortunately I have already paid for and I'm praying that spigen tr 0.4 mm is not too often.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] WandersonGD:
Sorry for the bother guys, but anyone knows about a great screen protector film, anti-scraches, clear, fingerprint and grease resistant?

Thanx
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Sam Sung:
You might try using a piece of shipping tape to pull it off.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babak:
already tried it, but I think when I get the new film I will use the method that suggested :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] neyenlives:
Get one of the tempered glass protectors mentioned in this thread. They will all scratch, show fingerprints(don't touch your phone and it won't get fingerprints) , etc...... The point is you don't mess up your original screen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Larry Page:
If anyone is interested in purchasing a tempered glass screen protector and don't want to pay a fortune, I would highly recommend buying from amazon. Just search for tempered glass for the note 3 and you will find one for around $6. I would say the thickness of the glass is not as thick as the spigen ones but it works very well. I'm using it on my phone and I also purchased the zero lemon battery as well. Both in combination works flawlessly. I have to say once you use glass, you can't go back to plastic film.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] 2dorr:
I received my replacement MIME Feather glass and I managed to put in perfectly like the first one. I changed because the oleophobic coating was almost gone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] moccor:
So the Spigen tempered glass protector would prevent the S-pen from working?

I have the sign glass.tr and have no issues with the s-pen. It works great.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chirpyone:
I had the slim armor for a whole two days when the hinge broke! :crying:

It was working perfect for me up to that point (still have 4.3). Now I have to find a new case. :(

If I am going to do a case with no front cover I am going to definitely have to get a tempered glass protector.

I am debating between the Tech Armor glass ( doesn't cover camera or sensors) or the Niliken. Anyone have any advice? Also has anyone tried the Zagg Glass (hate that it is $39, but like the thought of lifetime replacement)? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] makavelisk:
I bought the tech armor ballistic tempered glass and installed it yesterday. I have to say for 16 bucks I love it!! It fits the phone perfect and has the single cutout across the top which is nice as well as the edges are rounded so you don't feel a edge hardly at all. The spen works great as well as just normal use and the feel is so much better than a plastic screen cover it's ridiculous. I forgot what it feels like to type on the glass! I do have a Seidio ledger view case as well with a Spigen clip to hold the sview flap down and they all work together great. Oh the installation was a piece of cake with no dust or air underneath. There was one little bubble I missed but was able to work out with running my finger nail over it a few times.

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BOOMER_SOONER:
I narrowed my choices down to the Tech Armor or the Nillkin. I went with the Nillkin as I just saw too many guys on here recommend it.

I did go with the Tech Armor for my girlfriends iPhone 5s. It has over 8000 reviews with a high rating on Amazon.

Both came today and I can tell you that the instructions and install package for the Tech Armor is really damn good. I was hoping it would include a suction cup like others have gotten but I'm going to use the hinge method anyway so I guess it doesn't really matter.

I'm going to wait till tomorrow to install so I can read and watch installation videos more. I'm also trying to decide if I'm going to keep the Trident Cyclops case with the Nillkin. I've got the Neo Hybrid and liked the idea of the Cyclops being rain, dust and drop rated, for when we go out rock hounding. I'm concerned about removing the built in protector if the Nillkin will fit under the bezel.

I'm wiped so have no idea
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sunki:
I have Brando tempered glass screen protector rounded version and rocks. Was not to expensive and its great. No smudges easy application. When you have spigen neo hybrid, protector it's from edge to edge.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MACHEK:
Rainx didn't work for me but didn't try wax yet either. Anyone try it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] d12unk13astard:
If the built in protector screen is plastic just remove it, you have that tempered glass protector which is all you need. I seriously doubt the plastic screen protector of the trident would protect better than the nilkin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BOOMER_SOONER:
Thank you, i agree, my concern is will the Nillkin still fit with the bezel of case. The way the case is designed the bezel for the plastic screen interlocks with the case. After doing some searching II've found some guys that have used tempered glass with this case after removing the plastic protector find out what they have to say, one guy said he had pockets where the glass would t adhere on the corners due to pressure from the plastic bezel

Yeah the plastic protector seems really cheesy on a really protective, slim case.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DEEBS808:
I've had this one for a few months. Love it. I'm never going back to those plastic screen protectors. My wife also loves hers for her s4

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] int_architect:
I bought my first one from them and the quality was/is beyond awesome. It has survived several major drops without a crack, although there are a few noticeable scratches. I was so impressed with the product that I ordered two more. That's when the problems began. The seller pulled a bait and switch. When I contacted them, they told me their distributor chooses which types are sent out and I got a very high quality one for very little money. They said they couldn't guarantee the same product, which is the only reason I bought two more in the first place. The two from my second purchase were thin, no rounded edges, and seemed more like plastic than glass. The seller offered me the option of keeping both for the price of one or a refund. I chose the refund, and convinced them to pay for the return shipping. However, I had to threaten to open a case with eBay to actually get my refund. They also offered to replace the glass screen protector I bought for my wife's HTC One because it didn't adhere completely, but they never sent the replacement.

In the end, I wouldn't recommend this seller. But that's my experience. Others have purchased from them without any issues. Still very happy with the first one I bought from them though.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DEEBS808:
I bought 2 for my note 3 and 2 for my wife's s4. I never did check to see if the other two was the same quality. Now I will. I didn't have any problems with the seller yet. I was going to grab a few more but we will see. Mines is still looking good with a few scratches and I had it for a few months I have the other one that would probably last me just as long. Where did you end up buying from now?
