Znitro

This is very tempting then. zathus, I checked out the Znitro page and can't find any reference to it being 0.4mm thick - are you sure about this? It would be the only thing stopping me, as it would stop my Quick Window case from closing all the way.

Or is there anyone else who's using the Znitro with the Quick Window case who could confirm?

Has anyone ordered this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZNITRO-LG-G...l_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item2ecf24509e

looking for feedback on this because I am interested in it and want to make sure its good. Thanks

The cheaper one is also normal glass. So, if it breaks you have shards of sharp glass vs small chunks.

White Znitro screen protector

Yes, the same reseller on ebay (thecellguru) that has the black ones also sells the white ones.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Znitro-Lg-G...ass-Screen-Protector-White-Reta-/151273886208

Or you can order directly from Znitro.

https://www.znitro.com/lg-g2-nitro-glass-white.html

I'm going to send Znitro an email to ask if the thickness would prevent my G2 Quick Window case from closing properly, as this was an issue I had with a previous glass protector.
[G2 Accessories] abhinav.tella:
Thanks for the links.

From my experience in December, if the phone hits a corner the Window case wont't do much, my first G2 took such an impact 2 feet off the ground the corner plastic of phone rebounded with no damage, but the screen absorbed the force and shattered. I bought a Slim Armor Champagne Gold Case from Spigen's Ebay store two days back.
[G2 Accessories] shinhwa:
I'm interested in getting the Champagne Gold - when you get it, can you tell me if it's matte or glossy? Thanks.
[G2 Accessories] abhinav.tella:
Lol thats what I was wondering too, in images only slate and champagne looked matte otherwise I wanted white but its glossy, will find out soon enough and tell.
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
Looks nice, do you have a pic of it applied to your phone? I'm curious about the edges and thickness.
[G2 Accessories] zathus:
I'd imagine they're all glossy because there underneath the glass. Even if you take a flat color and put it under glass it usually looks glossy

I'll take some pictures later. Right now I don't have a second camera. It actually looks thinner then the other one I had which was .4 mm. Also the edges feel a little rounded. I've been going caseless for a few days while I work on my case and I haven't snagged it.

Good to know. I have the iloome right now and haven't been super happy with it. It protects the main part of the screen but the bottom is coming up a little and of course, the top is barely covered. Would you recommend the Znitro? I assume it covers the whole screen.

I would recommend the znitro over any other. And I've owned pretty much all of them. Here are some pictures

I posted some pictures in the slim armor thread (last post, can't give you a link because I'm new).

It's matte in that it isn't a mirrorlike fingerprint magnet and it has a 'grainy' texture (probably the same as the metallic slate one) . It still is shiny though because it has golden paint.
[G2 Accessories] abhinav.tella:
Yep only Slate and Champagne are matte, I wanted white but it was glossy and scratches would show more easily.

zNitro thickness

I'm very tempted by your positive review of the zNitro, but your pics #3 & #4 actually make it look quite thick, possibly 0.4mm at least?

I messaged zNitro on FB about the thickness as I couldn't find any reference to it on their website and their reply about the thickness was "It is .003 in thickness"

They didn't specify if this meant inches or what, but if it's inches then it is incredibly thin, in fact <0.08mm. But the iloome ScreenMate Flex is the thinnest glass protector that I know of (I have tried it) and even that is 0.12mm thick.

So I have asked zNitro for clarification on this figure.

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

I've tried this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/0-25mm-H...een-Protector-for-LG-Optimus-G2-/191001680960

I was quite happy with it in general. The edges are slightly rounded (although not as much as the G2's own screen edges of course) so they don't have that 'sharp' feel to them.

I was not happy that the screen protector stopped my LG QuickWindow case from closing properly, which led me to believe that it's possibly thicker than the claimed 0.25mm - but would really need a micrometer to be able to confirm this.

I wasn't able to continue using it because it caused my screen to become unresponsive - but your mileage will vary with regard to this, since even the thinner iloome ScreenMate Flex did that to my G2, and even a much thinner, cheap plastic film SP isn't 100% in this respect on my G2 either. My G2 appears to have a rare screen issue in this regard, and my next SP will quite probably be the zNitro, which doesn't use adhesive under the visible screen area - I have a hunch that that's maybe what's causing my issue...

So I would still be happy to recommend this SP to the vast majority of G2 users, and the price is certainly right! The seller was also very cooperative, no complaints there at all.
[G2 Accessories] axlastro:
Please recommend a good glass protector that is confirmed to work with a cruzerlite bugdroid case (no bubbles)
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
I ordered the zNitro from my VS980 yesterday and I'm using the Diztronic case. I will report back when I apply the screen and put the case back on.
[G2 Accessories] dp917:
That is my setup, works great
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
Nice. If it fits the case well, it doesn't really matter how thick the protector is...you would only notice on the cut outs on the top.
[G2 Accessories] dp917:
Correct! It is a hair short from top to bottom and the case doesn't always stay over the edge of the protector, but it meets right against and still can't tell the protector is there.
[G2 Accessories] zathus:
Yeah doesn't specify on the box either. I have a .4mm one and this one does seem thinner. But when your talking 1 mm it's hard for He human eye to catch it. I can say that it's not bigger then .4 lol. But the actual size I don't know for sure.

Sent from my VS980 4G
[G2 Accessories] ECrispy:
The cheaper one ebay description says tempered glass though. And looking at the cutouts seems same as the znitro.
[G2 Accessories] dp917:
I've had both. It doesn't have physical cutouts in the glass like znitro, just in the black coloring. This has caused proximity issues for a lot of people. Others have also stated it's not tempered, just plain glass. Go with the znitro and not have any worries later.
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
zNitro thickness

OK, so mystery solved... or deepened...? zNitro replied to me on their FB page to clarify that 'sorry it was a mistake. it is .03 in thickness. not .003'

So this means that it's actually 0.76mm, or almost twice as thick as that 0.4mm one you were using previously. Judging from your zNitro photos I would say that 0.76mm is about right, and it's definitely thicker than the cheap glass one I had which claimed to be 0.25mm and yet still stopped my Quick Window flap from closing all the way.

I know others here don't like the Quick Window case but I do like it, and it would really annoy me if the zNitro stopped it from closing properly :(
[G2 Accessories] zathus:
Ok, I tried my best to compare. The one I'm holding is .4mm thick. To me it's the exact same as the znitro.

It is definitely not twice as thick

But I would imagine it would, or might keep the flap from closing properly on a window case

[G2 Accessories] jordant2:
Same thing here. I installed mine last night and I got frustrated when I couldn't get the edges to stay down. Then I realized it is just a mm too big on each side. But I don't have the lifting shown in the last pictures. I think it's due to the case. This screen protector will lift if anything is touching the edges. I was using a tpu case and had to take it off since it pushes on the glass. I have a flip case that works well with it and it's not so bad now.

Just got mine and I concur. There must be a larger radius of curvature to the edge of this screen. Also disappointed with the feel. Alot more like the plastic protectors than the naked screen.
[G2 Accessories] AKA_Rizzo:
I still wear it everyday at work in the Plant, On the floor. Getting all kinds of dirty. I keep it in a 4x8 2mil plastic bag most of the time..

If it tilt it in the light I can see 6 scratches, Each about the width of a hair. I have to look hard to find them and that's with the phone locked and screen off.

I can not find them with the screen on.

So after all this time I would buy this protector again.

How's that ?

Oh yeah, I make abrasive material at work... The stuff I make is made to scratch LOL

I got the Spigen GLAS.tr for my GS4 before. My review - After coming a month, there was a hairline crack at the corners. Yes. Two corners. A week later, a streak in the middle. I don't know how the hell it got there but one thing for sure, i'm never getting it again for my G2. Paid 40 bucks for that crap.

Currently sniping the reviews here. ;)

Thought of the iloome flex but seen bad outcome.

Anyone hates putting screen protectors? I used my G2 for 2 days without it and man it was smooooooooth as a butter.

But then, i'm scared pf the 'phantom' hairline scratches.
[G2 Accessories] il buono:
I have the Glas.tr for the S4 and it's still in excellent condition. I think I've had it on there for at least 4 months. People will obviously have different experiences but spigen products have always been excellent for me :)

My ocd kicks in if I see even a hairline scratch. So as much as I prefer the glass feel, I still use screen protectors.

Do these aluminum bumpers have some sort of coating or padding on the inside to keep from scratching the phone?

Also, do they have that cheap Chinese feel to them? (e.g. poor machining, poor fitment, etc)
[G2 Accessories] zathus:
Actually, no. I was quite shocked at how well it was made considering lol. But it doesn't cover the back and that was a no no for me. But it's well made and has thin rubber along the sides and top and bottom to protect the phone. Like all cases though, It's based on an opinion. And opinions vary. My opinion, its pretty nice. But, can't speak for everybody

[G2 Accessories] abhinav.tella:
In the event these protectors crack, how hard is it to take them off? Is it a very strong adhesive?
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
No, the adhesive is silicone-based, non-curing, so you can easily peel them off. Re-applying them after removal may not be so successful though. They usually warn about that, but I've never tired to yet.
[G2 Accessories] ouchthatsucked:
I have to say the zNitro is the best I've used so far. I've had the Glass-M, and the Flexglass prior to it, and I love the zNitro. It looks perfect with my Trident Cyclops case and covers all of the edges of the screen protector. VS980 G2
[G2 Accessories] nizmoboy98:
I've tried the ones off eBay . The tempered glass covered edge to edge . So the edge of the tempered glass wouldn't adhere. I've used diztronic, otter box defender, body glove drop suit, and a cheap spigen slim armor knock off case with no problems. But they were finger print magnets. Right now I'm using iloome flex glass. Love it edges all adhere no lifting at all around the edges. And it's compatible with the cases I listed
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
I installed my znitro last night and it is perfect, it looks great. The only thing I could say is that you can see the touch grid in certain lighting conditions, but I don't care enough to let it bother me.
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
Update: the zNitro screen protector with the Diztronic case is amazing! It looks like there is just a case on the phone, no protector. Great combo!
[G2 Accessories] TaDoey:
I've had success with removing the tempered glass screen protector and reapplying it. Though I would not recommend it. When you take it off you expose the adhesive side to a million dust particles and some are bound to stick to it. But other than some really small dust particles under the screen protector there really isn't anything wrong with it.
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
And the zNitro has no adhesive under the clear section, so that shouldn't really be a problem with that one if it's removed and reapplied, right?
[G2 Accessories] wgilles:
Correct. That is a great feature, no bubbles or dust. I reapplied it a couple times when getting the alignment correct. One thing I did notice, if your case comes up the front of the phone a little bit, make sure the screen protector is UNDER the case. I lost touch support because I didn't pay attention to this, but just smooshing the case up to where it needed to be fixed it right up. :good:
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
That's an intriguing issue you've pointed out - I think you're saying that if you use a case that doesn't cover the edges of the SP itself, then you completely lose touch? Or get reduced touch sensitivity?

That sounds like a strange issue, and I'd be interested to know if you have tried any OTHER glass SPs with the G2 and found the same issue - or has it only happened with the zNitro?

I use the LG Quick Window case (actually the cheaper Voia brand, which comes standard with the G2 here in Australia) which DOESN'T cover any of the actual glass itself, just the VERY narrow bezel. Now, the zNitro is about as wide as you can possibly get in a SP, due to the G2's curved glass, but I'm sure that the edges of the Quick Window case would still NOT cover it - so I doubt that the zNitro would work with the Quick Window case if what you're saying is correct.

Anyone esle tried the zNitro + Quick Window case combo?
[G2 Accessories] M@XLOL:
what case is everyone using with the znitro on vzw my case lifts it off fml
[G2 Accessories] dp917:
He meant the case lifted the glass off the screen, which then caused touch issue because it wasn't touching the screen.

[G2 Accessories] dp917:
I had this happen a couple times in the beginning but has been fine for a while. Do you have the glass perfectly aligned? And I carefully slide the phone into case making sure the edges went under the lip of the case using my fingernail along the way.
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
Ah, OK thanks, well in that case the Quick Window case should have no issues with the zNitro, or with any other SP for that matter :D

(Apart from, I strongly suspect that due to its relative thickness (est. 3mm) it would prevent the Quick Window case from closing all the way)

The Znitro and Diztronic is great for the Verizon phones. As I stated above, if you don't align it correctly it can lift off the glass and cause some touch issues, however, since I adjusted the case it has been smooth sailing and I have not had to readjust anything.

i just bought tyrex tempered glass for my G2, but after that my touch screen can not precisely tapped, and its some kinda flicker.. in the end i peeled it up again.. how can this happened?
[G2 Accessories] Ralph77:
Did the touch issue happen even while you operated the phone with it in your palm? Or only while it was lying on a hard surface?

My tests indicate that touch issues are much LESS likely while you are holding the phone; and much MORE likely when you aren't holding it, but instead just operating it with one finger while it is lying on a solid horizontal surface. (I can't comment on the flicker issue though)
[G2 Accessories] andrewrizal:
no, ive heard about this, that if you put it lying, it will be unresponsive..
