I'd highly recommend the Casebase tempered glass I got from Amazon. It cost £10, came in a hard shell clam case for protection which is good. I've bought a few before and they were damaged when I received them. This one is real quality. Not sure on thickness but it's about. 3mm, rounded edges, 9H etc etc.

This item is really good, very professionally packaged, resists fingerprints pretty well and wipes clean very easy if it smudges. It's way smoother than the original gorilla glass.

Heres the link.

There are two different types of nilikin you want 9h+ I've heard there problems with the other
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
I believe 9H does not have rounded edges. 9H+ does.
[One (M8) Accessories] Tom Fagerland:
I used a Spigen Glas.tR first, but it broke. Then I bought a Nilikin, but after only a week I've already ordered a Glas.tR to replace it. It costs three times more, but is worth it.

First of all, the Nilikin has scratches already, while it took months for the Spigen to get to that point. Secondly, the glass holds fingerprints more than Spigen, and I don't like the feel of it.

BUT, the Nilikin actually has a better package of tools to mount the glass. Instead of a useless plastic protector for the front of the glass, it has a little "dust remover" which is simply a sticker you use over and over again until you've used it on the entire screen, making it easier to be sure it's clean. Of course, a simple piece of sellotape does the same thing.

Could you share a link from eBay with nillkin tempered glass but the glass with 9H+ and curved edges
[One (M8) Accessories] rand4ll:
I agree with the nillkin. Had it on my last phone that got stolen and was great. Bought a ptouch one for this phone and it was crao, scratched and even lifted corners within a week. Now replaced with nillkin again and love it. Also used on two other m8 for friends and they love it.

Just received the skinomi one today its exactly like the nillikin. Like the idea of a lifetime warranty even on scratches.
[One (M8) Accessories] hieuman:
i have the zagg, at 40 dollars i was definitely hesitant...but it's super super thin, so thin i can barely tell it's on there. the corners are rounded and everything feels like it belongs on a stock phone.

plus, i accidentally cracked it the day i got it somehow and i told zagg and they sent me a new one and paid for shipping for it too. I do know that if it happens again it'll be 5 dollars for shipping though.

worth it IMO.

Is anyone running the iCarez temepered glass with the Supcase Unicorn Beetle TPU case? I installed it all lastnight and the case is pushing the screen protector up on the sides where the volume buttons are. When I had my Sense version M8 I had the Supcase with the Nilkin so I orderd the Nilkin and it will be here tomorrow. Hopefully it works like it did the first time around when I had the device.
[One (M8) Accessories] jmwils3:
I have it, and it works fine for me
[One (M8) Accessories] wase4711:
Just an FYI; I tried the Zero Lemon glass screen protector, and I was NOT happy at all with it.

The first one came all scratched and scuffed up; got it from Baxter Wireless on Amazon, and they were great about immediately sending a replacement one out.

The second one was not scratched, but it wont lay down on the screen properly; 3 of the 4 corners, which are NOT rounded are pushing up slightly, and have air pockets under them and no matter what I do, it wont lay down completely on the corners. I think its a tiny bit too large, and that is what the problem is.

Have used NIlkin a few times with no problem, so ordering one of those now to replace this thing..
[One (M8) Accessories] tpal12:
I haven't install a screen protector or tempered glass on this phone and after your comments I decided select the nillkin tempered glass. Thank you very much guys.
[One (M8) Accessories] Steven How:
Have u guys heard this brand? Mocolo, it's made by Japan asahi glass . Which was the Dragon trail glass from Xperia z2. Here is some pic of it. I'm still using my defective Nillkin H glass sp. So I can't give much impression on the Mocolo glass sp.

I bought one from a 9h one iloome.com and it works really good on my phone
[One (M8) Accessories] romainpicou:
I use the Mime USA Ghost glass:

http://mimeusa.com/product/htc-one-m8-ghost-glass-screen-protector/

I think it is an amazing tempered glass protector. I got it the day it went on sale and have had it on my phone since. I have 0 scratches, 0 chips, 0 cracks. (no bubbles under the screen either)

I'll explain why I recommend this glass protector:

- Nice, minimalistic but modern packaging that includes clear installation instructions and a little pre-installation kit to guarantee a perfect dust free installation

- Despite the thickness of the glass (0.32mm), it has smooth rounded edges. (they now offer a feather 0.15mm version)

- The 5X Ultra oleophobic coating is my favorite part of this glass. This coating makes the glass silky smooth to the touch and repels fingerprints amazingly. It has not faded at all since i got it.

- The adhesive used makes for an easy no bubble installation and removes very cleanly if needed.

- If you break it, they'll sell you a new one at 40% discount. I have dropped my phone a few times and its still looks like the day I got it.

In short, The Mime glass and a very nice premium tempered glass that offers great protection and has exceptional build and finish. (also they are currently offering free shipping in USA on their website)

I also use the Cruzerlite S-Line case which cost $6 and looks great in my opinion.

There are a lot of good glass protectors and cases out there to choose from. It's hard to pick a "best" one. I can only share my experience with the Mime as it is the only one that i have tried. I hope you find my post helpful.

size of the cover

Hi there,

my old phone got stolen. :(

Now I want to get a HTC One (M8). For that I am looking for a good glass screen protector. I read the posts and looked into amazon and e-bay a lot. And now my question:

Are there different types of protectors out there? Most just cover the glass, but are there some that cover the "whole" front, including the parts where the speakers are/camera is?

In my opinion is 0.3 mm thickness quite okay if the whole front is covered. The GLASS-M is just 0.15 mm but covers only the glass (what I can see from their website) but that would be okay than.

Thanks, David
[One (M8) Accessories] Steven How:
Usually whole front would apply only to the plastic sp. Like the skinomi full body protector. Glass I don't think they even make a glass covering the speaker portion. Only plastic protector .
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
For whole front coverage you'd need to go traditional plastic screen protector route, even then there aren't that many that cover top to toe.

I've not seen one tempered glass one that covers top to toe.

In my opinion having gone through several brands including MIME, Nillkin, XtremeGuard and GLASS-M my recommendation is:

- 0.33mm Nillkin

Great protector all round, rounded edges, good price and bonus comes with the best camera lens protectors for free.

- 0.15mm GLASS-M

Had this one on a few weeks now and it's really good. Made from Gorilla Glass it's really tough to scratch. It's thin enough you barely notice it plus it's Dot View friendly.
[One (M8) Accessories] wase4711:
I think I read that the one Verizon sells at its stores covers the entire front of the phone, top to bottom..
[One (M8) Accessories] jah:
Is that with cut outs for the speakers? I've similar for the LG G3 with a cut out for the top front speaker.
[One (M8) Accessories] wase4711:
yeah, I think the Verizon site mentioned there was a cut out for the speakers, and the front facing camera too...24.99 us $$

Actually, after re-reading the info, some folks say it is NOT a "top to bottom" cover like the description had said it was, so I am not sure what it actually is at this point..
[One (M8) Accessories] AtlanGon:
Thanks for the replies. I am looking at amazon.de (the german one, because I am from/in Germany) and I found this one:

go to amazon.de and look for: "Spyrox Premium aus gehärtetem Glas Crystal Clear LCD-Schutzfolien für den Bildschirm Packs mit Poliertuch & Anwendung Karte für HTC One m8"

(I can't jet post outside links)

Many pictures show only the screen protected but this one shows different. It one of just a few.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Looks interesting:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spyrox-Temp...d=undefined&sr=8-4&keywords=spyrox+htc+one+m8

Certainly gives the impression its top to bottom.

I can't see this being true though. I think there would be issues with adhesion to the speaker grill portions.
[One (M8) Accessories] naturecannon:
I have broken both a NIlkin and extreme guards tempered glass sp in the last few weeks. I had great luck with a glass m with my original one (m7) so I will look into one of those.

Also with the extreme guards my touch screen went wonky if it wasn't cleaned everyday. Unhappy with the quality of most of these tempered sp these days. I believe its because peeps are wanting the thinner ones which are craps and crack easily.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
GLASS-M 0.15mm thin and I've had no issues with it this far.

[One (M8) Accessories] T.J. Bender:
I picked up a Z Nitro tempered glass protector (Nitro Glass) the day I returned my OtterBox Defender, and haven't had any issues in the month and a half since. It was $40 in-store, but worth it to me to have someone else to yell at if dust got trapped under the protector during install. I don't know exactly how thick it is, but I have to imagine it's in the 0.33 neighborhood, as it's definitely not thin. No scratches or chips, though, it doesn't hold fingerprints, and it feels very smooth to the touch. If I had to do it all over again, I'd probably have gone with a cheaper protector and installed it myself, but it's certainly held up well so far.

I used the MOCOLO Tempered Glass.

The edges are rounded, so that it has no "hard" borders, which is really nice and give a good feeling if you swipe woth the fingers over the edges.

http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00JURQQK2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The price in the EU is also really nice ;)
[One (M8) Accessories] T.J. Bender:
Or maybe it's 2.2mm thick...jeesh. At least it's nice and strong (8H) and resists fingerprints well.
[One (M8) Accessories] Heisenberg420:
Using the pthink temepered glass (.3mm thick/9h/fingerprint resistant)

After a month still fingerprint free. Also great price @ $12

So I want to get the nilikin since it seems like the majority have no issues with it. Can someone give me an amazon link for it because I don't know which one is 9H+.

I also still need a case to order and was wondering if nilikin will severely limit my options on cases. I am looking for something that just covers the back and isn't too bulky.
[One (M8) Accessories] frankcck:
If you wanna know what the material of your tempered glass is, check the color of the glass in every angles. Corning should be seem as Crystal clear, instead of green.

HTC One M8@ ViperOne M8
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
On or off the device? I won't take it off just to check, but whilst on the device, looking at all angles it just looks clear to me.
[One (M8) Accessories] frankcck:
Look at edges, there should be no a little green color at all. Otherwise, that's soda lime glass.

I personally doubt that glass-m use corning glass not only it's from China but even the first gen corning shouldn't be this sort of cheap price. Just my humble opinion.

Logically, if corning glass has many advantages plus the price over "soda lime glass" why those big screen protectors producers didn't use that, considering they sell one protector for $30~40.

I have one screen protector which is verified for using first gen of corning glass as well made in Taiwan for $45.

[One (M8) Accessories] Steven How:
Was that imos ex? That was made in taiwan lol. So if I look at the edges of my glass sp. If it has kind of blur or green colour it's soda lime? I'm using Nillkin h now which have the so called green or blue colour. How about Dragontrail glass? Is there anyway to identify it?

[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Well, all I can tell you is I see no green or blue. I've had several glass protectors and this one is definitely more resistant to scratches.

My nillkin has all green tint but no scratches after 4 months I recently changed to the skinomi cause of fingerprints but the skinomi has several scratches in three weeks so please explain. Both have green tint or soda color
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Honestly, get the GLASS-M for yourself and tell me its not Gorilla Glass. Because I'm looking again, and I see no coloured tints. It looks perfectly clear to me.

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

It's not feasible that a Chinese based company could order from one of those factories some glass sheets and do what they want with it? We have no idea. They could be ordering Corning glass sheets not yet tempered, cutting protectors out then tempering them. I'm sure I also read it's entirely possible to put tempered glass through a process called annealing which allows it to be cut then re-tempered.

I fail to see any reason to disbelieve it's Gorilla Glass.
[One (M8) Accessories] alfling:
Do you think ZAGG's tempered glass screen protectors are really worth the premium price?

ZAGG's tempered glass screen protector costs 40$ IIRC

But I see a lot of people buy Nillkin 9H Anti-Burst Tempered Glass Screen Protector for 8.90$ or Orzly for ~10$, or Rhinoshield for 25$... What do you think?
[One (M8) Accessories] jah:
I recommend Bepak H+. Very precise fit but lovely feel.
[One (M8) Accessories] wase4711:
Not at all; Zagg is overpriced, overrated, and you can get 3-4 others, like Nilkin, which fits and works great, for what you pay for ONE Zagg..

Hard to believe so many people will over pay for their products..
[One (M8) Accessories] alfling:
However I've read that there's a huge difference in the quality of the oleophobic film between ZAGG and Nillkin, do you disagree?
[One (M8) Accessories] wase4711:
I cant speak to the Zagg quality, as I would never buy a zagg product again, at those prices.

The Nilkin is clear, fits great, and many folks here will agree with me on that
[One (M8) Accessories] alfling:
Well, thank you for you input
[One (M8) Accessories] dragontology:
Would it kill some of you to post links? Seriously. ;)

I think this is the Nilkin one you guys are talking about, the 9H one. Pretty sure this is the one I want. I have $5 in Amazon credit from Bing farming, and I think either my account or my wife's is about to drop another nickel on us, so I can get it for a buck. (If you haven't heard about Bing farming, go to this XDA app developer's app page and throw a buck or two at him, or watch his ads while his app does all the work.)

But yeah... Used film on my last two phones. Tempered glass screen protector? I'm so in. Only thing is, I don't get glossy film screen protectors. I spring for the matte, because they're easier to drag fingers across, and they resist fingerprints. Not a lot of people like them, they prefer the glossy, but I personally find them sticky and problematic. Seems the tempered glass protectors offer the best of both? I like the look of gloss but not the feel. Anyway, for a buck out of pocket I guess I can't go wrong.

I need one which prevents fingerprint as much as possible. Tried boxwave with my other device and needless to say it did an amazing job. However it is not made for M8 though
[One (M8) Accessories] T.J. Bender:
I'm really a fan of the Z Nitro tempered glass. It was pricey and it's thicker than most screen protectors (manu says 2.2mm, but it seems smaller), but it's been in my pocket with a wallet, occasionally keys or an iPod if I get lazy, and no scratches at all. Fingerprint removal is a breeze; just wipe it off. If I could go back to when I got the phone and use a thinner protector, would I? Distinctly possible, as the thickness of the Z Nitro did make a Walmart case completely unusable, but it works perfectly with my Spigen Slim Armor. Would I go cheaper? No, for this reason: this was my first tempered glass screen protector, and I didn't trust myself to apply one correctly. Since stores typically frown upon you buying a $6 protector on Amazon, walking in and asking them to install it, my options were limited to what I could find in stores. I would've had the AT&T store apply whatever they use, but my Otterbox return ended on something of a sour note, and I wasn't interested in giving them any more money, so the phone accessories store nearby that came highly recommended found its way onto my list, and Z Nitro is their preferred brand. All in all, I'm very happy with it even after, what, two months of use? If you're going in-store for your purchase and installation, you can do a lot worse.

I don't know if my Nilkin is round edged. I feel like its not. The edges feel rough-ish.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
There are two versions available online:

9H

9H+

The latter has rounded edges. Unfortunately this seems to get a little lost in translation by the various sellers on eBay and Amazon, I'm not sure they know there is a difference as some will title it 9H+ when it's in fact just 9H.
