Same thing, i opened and put it on, it actually looks pretty good, but the sides, top and bottom are a tad smaller than they should b, the result is the borders around the edges form a slight rainbow effect if you dont line up the protector exact.

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 PM ----------

The protector is usable but like I said has to be aligned perfectly
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
How small is too small? Any chance of a pic of it lined up right. Obviously not stuck down though ha ha.

Definitely worried now if they think that one shape protector can do more than one model of phone.
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
this is how the size should be like
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
See, taking an even closer look now, it does appear to go a hairs breadth over the width of the lcd doesn't it. Which, if it is that size, I will be more than happy.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
I will post later tonight.. Heading to a gig now.. If someone hasn't best me to it
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Nice one :good: Will be morning here before I get to see it now. Hopefully they just sent the wrong one to you if it is narrower than that posted pic just now. You'll prob have your replacement before I even get mine ha ha.
[G2 Accessories] rebelx:
Does that mean that a case would work with this? I was thinking of the Spigen case.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
OK, so, my Glass-M arrived today! Odd, as the tracking code never showed anything at all. But, it's here.

Firstly. The protector DOES fit. It will cover the width of the screen as the previous pic showed. You just have to have the steadiest hands in the world to achieve the 100% perfect placement. I think I did not achieve this, but, I'm 95-98% happy with how I did it ha ha. But, have no fear if thinking of ordering, it does fit.

Touch response is exactly the same to be honest. Very pleased with that. Colours are basically the same too. All following pics are screen brightness at 50%.

I have no air bubbles, but had to lift it up once to replace it, which has made the top edge 'prongs' a little less sticky, but, they are stuck down still, and don't interfere with the screen, so all good.

I am using it with a Spigen Slim Armor case. It all fits perfectly, so that is one case for sure that will work with it :good:

Anyway, enough blather from me, enjoy the pics! (sorry, all pics of my phone itself were taken with a lumia 520 :()

Slight 'rainbow effect on top left as I was very close to going over the lcd panel. Be careful when applying. Not really a big issue when looking at it normally though.
[G2 Accessories] Anilexis:
My glassview have arrived. It fits nicely, but have issues with touchscreen sensivity :(
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
it takes around 7 days to reach you? mine just shipped yesterday, hope mine will turn up sometimes next week too, i see some ordered nano one, i might order one too after receiving mine and tried them
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
It took 7 days yeah, but can take longer apparently. I'm happy so far. Like you, i may buy a nano slim one mind for comparisons sake. Plus, maybe I'd fit it perfectly next time ha ha.

No touchscreen issues still for me. All good.

Is a bit reflective in direct light though. But not too off putting. Have upped brightness to 65% now.
[G2 Accessories] justbenice:
It look like we have some problem at the top of the screen protect. Is it right ?
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Please read what I wrote about it! There is no problem at all with the protector. I had to peel it off once as I placed it wrong, hence, the very top 'prongs' are a bit less sticky. It is however, all perfectly in place and working as it should!

Saying there are faults will make people think the item is faulty. It is not!
[G2 Accessories] justbenice:
Thank you for make it clear . I am going to order a NANO SLIM. And can't believe, just a few day and a SLIM GLASS M now sold out !!!!
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
The Nano Slim interests me, as I'd prefer a thinner one too. But, not sure whether to bother ordering one at minute. Think a couple of others on this thread have ordered the Nano. Will wait to see what they say about it before I order, as I'm happy with my normal one now.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
Looks like someone beat me to pics.. The protector should fit most cases.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Ha ha, yeah mine arrived this morning, and figured given time difference I would just get them up so everyone can see.

It requires a very very steady hand to get perfectly in place as the margin for error is very small. But, it does it's job.

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

Seems to be common with the Glassview screen so far. Maybe try the Glass-M? I've had no issues with touch at all, it is just hard to get perfectly placed.
[G2 Accessories] Anilexis:
Yes, maybe. Just liked the idea of covering logo with Glassview screen. Oh well...
[G2 Accessories] rebelx:
Looks like the prices of the Glass-M went up too.

The regular thickness is out of stock, and the nano is now $16.99 from the $13.50 it was just a few hours ago when I was browsing the site.

That's unfortunate. Sprint users don't even have the G2 yet and we're going to not only get a late start but have to pay more in accessory costs as well :(
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
The regular thickness protector was always $13.50, even when I ordered mine. The nano one was always the more expensive price. It was a few days ago, and was this morning over here when I checked the site again.
[G2 Accessories] ms54:
I ordered the glass-m nano a couple days ago and I'm from Canada. Costed 21.99 u.s in total. I haven't received a tracking number yet but thankfully I got it before it sold out.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
The Nano is not sold out on the site. The regular protector is sold out.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
I'll keep the glass m till the xgearlive gets here...it does the job but I want something a little more exact.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Exact in what sense? The protector fits perfectly, you just have to be exact in the fitment to get the absolute best result. If anything, the Glass-M is too exact, as a little more breathing room on the edge, not even 1mm needed, would make it a lot easier to fit. But, then you run the risk of getting too close to the edge and the glass lifting or splintering.

I hope the xgear is a good fit. The pics look very very close to the edge, so will be good to know how it holds up to use both in and out of a case once you have it. From the pics at least, which can be deceiving of course, it looks like my Spigen Slim Armor may not fit if I had that on. Which is a shame, as it provides a lot of coverage.
[G2 Accessories] nadalzeal:
Anyone tried using xgearlive sentinel tempered glass?
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
It's not out yet. Ship date is expected to be 18th November.

It looks exactly like the Glassview protector though. If it just sticks around the edges like the Glassview does then I presume that will cause touch issues as the glass won't technically be adhered to the actual phone screen? So hopefully the xgear has a full pane silicon type adhesive all over.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
I have mine as close to perfect on the device as it can be, but it still leaves too much area on the top and bottoms exposed...more than i would like, all my devices that have tempered glass fit exactly within the bezel of a diztronic tpu, this leaves a coupple mm exposed. None of my other devices experience any lifting either, I wish Spigen would just make one.
[G2 Accessories] nadalzeal:
I will be getting my G2 later, so does Spigen slim armor will fit well with a tempered glass? And I heard the camera flash gets disrupted by the spigen slim armor, is that true?

---------- Post added at 06:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 AM ----------

Yes I understand what you mean, then they should create a curved glass protector as well. If they create a flat one, the middle part will be floating. This is the only thing I dont like with G2, curved screen = few screen protectors
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
I've had no problems with Slim Armor and my flash as yet, so, have to say I disagree about that. Same could be argued about most cases that are thick though, as the flash would sit 'recessed' a little.

But, no problems from mine.

---------- Post added at 01:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 AM ----------

The lifting is because of the curved edges of the phone. Your other devices may not have curved edges in the same way though you see. So it ir right that they won't suffer lifting issues. Spigen non glass protectors are even slimmer amd actually sit inside the width of the lcd itself. So if they made glass version, i expect it would be too narrow as well.

It's annoying, frankly.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
i know why the protector lifts, and i have other devices with curved edges that don't lift. spigen protectors are usually spot on...if you're happy with the glass-m cool, but personally I'll keep looking for a better option. Although atm the glass-m is the currently best option...if only it was 1mm taller and a smidge wider it be perfect.
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
i suspect glass-m still sending out "older version"

as in Hong kong the yahoo bid is now selling

which is the new version which cover slightly more in all areas

from what i saw from the pic been posted here, it looks like the version the yahoo bid seller stopped selling

notice the distance between the edge of the screen protector, which is far less than the first picture and this is the version that JUST cover the screen area
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
The curved edges have to be a particularly difficult problem on this phone (for some reason), as iloome had to cancel theirs and they definitely have enough experience in protector to make one work on slightly curved edges.... Or you'd think they would anyway.

I agree, the glass-m could be taller definitely. And I did say despite it fotting perfectly that it needs to be a hair wider too.

I'd happily use a basic rear solid cover and just a protector if it covered the full face more. That's why I hope the xgear works when yours arrives.
[G2 Accessories] nadalzeal:
I will just wait for the xgearlive sentinel, it looks good. It's okay if I can't install a case, I will just apply maybe like Zagg invisible shield on the back.
[G2 Accessories] rebelx:
Hmm, for those that are going to be using a case with their Glass-M, don't we *want* a bit smaller screen protector so that there are no lifting issues? I've sold myself on the glass style protector this time (I had bought a xtremeguard before I discovered this subforum) and when the phone ships later this month, I want to make sure that I'm good to go without having to wait!
[G2 Accessories] narutimetto:
Can't wait for mine to arrived :laugh:
[G2 Accessories] Dmitryy:
My finally go shipped yesterday (they gave me the number, but no tracking information is available ). Hope it arrives soon. Can't wait to try it on.
[G2 Accessories] M@XLOL:
I'm perplexed. I can't tell if the glass m is good or not LOL. A lot of ambiguous reviews and comments.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
Glass-M in a nutshell, cut a little too small (top and bottom are shorter than they could be, width is a hair too thin), needs very precise fitment to avoid rainbow effect on edges of protector, touch sensitivity is great surface is olleophobic. Most cases will work with this protector.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
It should be said though that the saying it is 'too short' is your opinion, and not an actual negative for the abilities of the glass. You could easily flip the comment and say it allows more room so that almost all cases are likely to fit the device.

This is the problem, it could easily be described as 'ill fitting' by some, but also described as perfectly sized.... And it just requires patience to line it up perfectly.
[G2 Accessories] justbenice:
The funny things is first we want it smaller to fit all the case, and when they make it smaller we want it bigger to fit the whole screen. :P

BTW, anyone got the glass-m NANO SLIM yet ? is it better the SLIM ?
[G2 Accessories] jackatthekilns:
Out of Stock?

Can't seem to find anywhere to buy this. Any links?
[G2 Accessories] bigdee888:
Please read back for it.
[G2 Accessories] jasonsf:
I just ordered the Glass-M Nano. I currently have a film protector and I am getting mysterious scratches in it. I keep the phone in my pocket. It never rubs against anything metal or sharp. Just a plastic chapstick tube. I can't for the life of me figure out what is causing the scratching.

[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
Been there. Which one has the black trim to cover the logo ?
[G2 Accessories] Sushiglobster:
Whoa, there is a tempered glass version that covers the logo? Please sign me up for that. I'm trying to find a way to hide the hideous Verizon logo while also applying a tempered glass protector.

If such a product exists, I'll buy it for sure.

EDIT: I found this from Seidio. It's for the GS3, but perhaps they'll make an LG G2 version? Notice the black trim: http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-vitreo-screen-guard-black-p/sptssgs3-bk.htm

EDIT 2: Emailed Iloome about their product. They just responded with a "No." they are not planning to produce a version with black trim. Only clear.
[G2 Accessories] fhblake04:
I emailed Seidio about their product line for the G2 last week, and they sad it wasn't finalized. I'm a huge Seidio fan. I hope they do, this would be awesome!
[G2 Accessories] Sushiglobster:
Hah, that's funny because I messaged them today asking about their G2 offerings. Let's see if there's an update.
[G2 Accessories] psychoace:
I think that is actually a positive though. Which would you rather have crack your screen or the screen protector when you drop your phone? The screen protector here would absorb most of the force then
[G2 Accessories] DeaconBoogie:
Bro, I wasn't *****ing about it. I was trying to tell a previous poster that it is indeed glass and not plastic, "and here's a video that proves it." :)
[G2 Accessories] psychoace:
Wups sorry
[G2 Accessories] thestrangebrew:
I've never used a glass protector but I'm definitely interested. Might have to order one now!!
[G2 Accessories] SysAdmNj:
But do you have to specify what carrier version of the device you have? I know in cases you do.
[G2 Accessories] EniGmA1987:
Cases need to be carrier specific (sometimes) because Verizon has a thicker case and some other changes. As far as I know the actual screen size and shape is the same for all models so you should not need anything carrier specific.
[G2 Accessories] SysAdmNj:
I hope so, I'm probably going to order one later on. Never had a glass screen protector. I think my biggest concern would be how it plays with a tpu case. I've had flimsy screen protectors act weird on corners. Hopefully this stays put and plays nice with case.
[G2 Accessories] joshuadjohnson22:
after reading reviews I am hesitant.... the one from the OP evidently shatters easy and the flexible one scratches easy... I may wait to see other's products
[G2 Accessories] kyler13:
With the curvature at the edge of the G2's screen, I think you'll find the screen protectors are a bit undersized to prevent issues with adhesion. That will also mean no interference with a case. Perhaps some of the folks on here with carrier accessory screen protectors and tpu cases can chime in.

At 8H hardness, it won't scratch nearly as easy as plastic screen protectors.

Anything can be scratched if abraded hard enough.
[G2 Accessories] pmoradi2002:
Just tried a sample of this Flexible Glass out, the edges of the protector lift up as I suspected.

GL to your pre-orders :victory:
[G2 Accessories] kyler13:
Wait, you got the iloome screen protector for the LG G2 already???
[G2 Accessories] pmoradi2002:
My company got a sample from the same factory they use :angel:
[G2 Accessories] energie:
so no glass yet without problems? :(

im looking to buy one since normal screen protectors have edge problems because of the curvature
[G2 Accessories] kyler13:
Huh? I have some cheap eBay screen protectors that work fine with a reasonable edge exclusion. I find it hard to believe premium manufacturers wouldn't do this. Stranger things have happened, though.
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
just asked one of the reseller of glass-m in hong kong to post picture of the new nano glass. he said he will have them in stock by tmr and will have pic by then
[G2 Accessories] rebelx:
How do you determine proper fitment to avoid the rainbow effect?
[G2 Accessories] nadalzeal:
I have a cheap screen protector but I don't see any rainbow effects. The only problem that I have with this SP os that the 2 bottom corners are not intact, maybe because that's the last part that was attached and the installer kept removing those parts to align. I hopr there's a plastic SP that can cover the whole front.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Make sure the left and right edges are applied perfectly. Thats the only way. The margin for error is tiny, as i said in my post about it, and as the pictures i posted clearly show.

Mine is slightly off, but now, after a few days, i don't notice it at all. Does its job perfectly well.

---------- Post added at 12:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 AM ----------

My Glass-M Nano has shipped. Based off delivery time on regular one, I shoyld hopefully have it by Saturday.

However someone else ordered one before me. The difference is .11mm so, looking at them will show little difference, it will just feel a bit less raised on the sides.
[G2 Accessories] drumaster12:
I've been using mine for a couple weeks without any protector and the screen is in perfect shape. Is a protector absolutely necessary with the new iterations of gorilla glass?
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
A couple of weeks means nothing. I jad my gorilla glass Nexus 4 for 10 months and it was pristine.... Until i dropped it and shattered the screen. So yes, for me, and for anyone wanting to make sure their screen is safe (or at least safer) they are kind of necessary. Gorilla Glass is not break-proof or scratch-proof.... It is resistant to those things. Big difference.
[G2 Accessories] MNk1ng:
I have never seen the point in screen protectors... Never used one and never scratched a screen.
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
so i decided to try out the glass view that finally arrived today, and to my surprise it works very well for me, havent had issue with touch, and no lifting best of all it covers the whole front surface and fits in my diztronic tpu, will post video after a couple days of use.

So the fit with the View is spot on? Wondering based on your opinion if it is a better fit than the M.
[G2 Accessories] DeaconBoogie:
Hmm... another eBay special... Some company called "Hohoo" from Korea says this is a 9H tempered glass product.

However, it looks like some kind of PMMA film, not tempered glass... I am not sure of anything from Asia anymore! :eek:
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
Here's a video: Glassview G2 Tempered Glass

It looks much better than the Glass-M and the touch response is good for me, no lifting to speak of.
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
The company name kind of doesn't mean anything. These things are being knocked out in factories over there and then sold on to companies who stick their own name on the product packaging anyway. It could be awful, but, it could be perfect. The only way to know is to try it sadly.

Though I'd mail them on ebay asking about the use of the word 'film'. As they are in New York they should Speak English fine. (Hopefully)
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
let explain your way of installing this? may be a different tricks? since at least 2 on here have touch issue
[G2 Accessories] djkinetic:
no tricks lol, i just aligned it, to remove and realign i used a suction cup, also some tape on the the adhesive side and on g2 screen to remove dust/lint. then use a soft cloth to press down the edges.
[G2 Accessories] stevvveo:
Just got word from iloome ScreenMate Premium Tempered Glass Protectors.

I specifically asked about my VZW LG G2 but I'm assuming they would have similar timetables.

"Hello,

We're developing it again, but we are not sure when we can bringing out for you guys. It may take 3 weeks, or even 3 months. Sorry for the delay and thank you for your interest!

Best regards,

I complain to the company and they sent me the replacement but still the new one also made the screen unsuable. :crying:
[G2 Accessories] whitepandaaa:
was browsing through asian forum on the G2, many ppl had problem with their glassview. one of them said took him 4 times to get it correct to get rid of the touch issue, the margin of error you could say is even less than glass-m one.

not sure if it works, but looking at this person pic who claim he don't have the problem anymore,
[G2 Accessories] narutimetto:
judging from the pic, it seems that the glass is way too big for the screen. It goes up to the edge of the screen. Does that supposed to have lifting issue if the glass overlaping the screen like that? (just judging from the pic above)

and also it could be a problem if we want to use a case along with the glass
[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
That one does look large yes. Hopefully we can get some nice low level side on shots showing how close it goes to the edge though. As a slight angle in some pics can make everything look awful.

[G2 Accessories] mgolder:
Blimey. That first pic shows he has put that on a good mm too far off at the bottom right.

It's ridiculous how one piece of glass can have such a small margin for error with regards the touch sensitivity like on glassview, or the trying to make it fit exactly tolerances on the glass-m.
