I plunged 2-3 weeks ago and got this moshi ivisor for $5 at my local att store on sale and with big company discount. Still stastified, no lifting, sticks fine. I can deal with the dots. It's only when in direct sunlight. No adhesive in the middle; can't notice a thing. I'm pleased, smooth as butter. Guess I'm lucky.

So to this date we still dont have a edge to edge Glass protector for the Note 4? The one posted above on http://www.juzhetech.com/en/Glassscreen/SAMSUNG/Galaxy_Note_4/2014/1202/241.html looks good but having no other sources of information and no real place to purchase it makes me weary...

What is the best option so far?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] borijess:
Just bought one for backup. Got it for 5 bucks on the att website.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] eksoccer99:
nice... I couldn't pass up the deal. Once applied, I left it alone over night like someone else suggested and then kept pressing/firming down the sides and all around the first few days. If off just a little bit. I've used the sun/heat to push around the areas that were slightly off for me, i.e home button area, haha, to center it more. Also, thought about getting back one, haha.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] borijess:
Yes can't believe people paid 50 bucks for this. I have a nuglas on now so I am good.

Is there some confusion here? The link (which I am not allowed to put fully in my reply - less than 10 posts) is for Skinomi "TechSkin", which is thermplastic urethane (as stated in one of the illustrations at the top of the ad), not tempered glass. Skinomi "Tech Glass" is tempered glass. In the link search terms "Tempured" is misspelt, but there is a mention of "tempered" glass in answer to a question in the ad, and one or two review comments erroneously refer to "Tech Glass", when the ad is not for "Tech Glass", but for "TechSkin". There seems to be a bit of confusion between the 2 products. Also Skinomi "TechSkin" seems to be one word, "Tech Glass" is two words.

Hi LancerV: Was your protector Skinomi Tech Glass tempered glass and ergibson83's was Skinomi TechSkin thermoplastic urethane (page 103, I think)? Maybe you were talking about two different products? The link from ergibson83 actually points to TechSkin not Tech Glass (despite the mention of "Note 4 Tempured" as the search parameters), and the name of the product mentioned by ergibson83 in their post is actually the TechSkin product and not Tech Glass.

If yours is the Skinomi Tech Glass, is it still okay? I'm looking to buy a Note 4 and a screen protector (preferably glass) for it, but just wondered whether the Skinomi Tech Glass can long-term hold onto the curved screen of the Note 4. I've still got more reading to do in this (long) thread, but the shape of the Note 4 is obviously a challenge for many screen protectors, whether glass or non-glass.

Hello,

When Note 4 released I bought the Spigen Tempered Glass protector before the phone was released. When my phone arrived and place it on the phone the sides does not flush in because of its curves. I just switched to tmobile and got a N4 again and I need a tempered glass. I would like to ask what is best out right now for it and that might actually flush the sides? Any information is appreciated. Thank you in advance
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Novakingwai:
I too would like to know. From my experience in the Nexus 6 there was dozens of models and almost all of them had halos.

im loving the tempered glass, its doing awesome so far
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] eksoccer99:
And this would be which one? Brand? Haha
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
I just received this one today and it's the best I've used so far. Aside from my own application screw-up which resulted in a smudge underneath it(anyone know how to remedy that? Wet application perhaps?), it's gorgeous. No halo whatsoever & it covers the entire screen. I believe it comes in white too.

I've tried skinomi tech glass on my black note 4 and there was a halo on mine. It is important to remember there has been a recognition that the screen curvature doesn't always seem consistent from phone to phone. It is possible someone may see no halo but another person will.

I'm using a nuglas screen protector off eBay and it is the same cut as the skinomi tech glass and a lot cheaper and easily available if you are in the UK.

There is a halo present but it is bearable. I still prefer a glass screen protector with a halo than a plastic screen protector. Glass works better with the stylus and has much better longevity.

http://www.amazon.com/protector-Cai...42067499&sr=8-1&keywords=califu+note+4...edge to edge, no halo at all
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sefrcoko:
That looks similar to the moshi ivisor (which I tried and didn't really like). Is there any space between the glass and the middle of the screen? That's what bothered me with the moshi, tapping didn't feel as natural since the edge-to-edge design meant it wasn't fully flush on my screen due to the curved edges. Since then I've been using my Zagg glass and no complaints. No halo on mine, great oleophobic coating and flush fit. Only minor issue is no edge-to-edge protection, but we can't get it all due to the design of the note4 screens.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sefrcoko:
I understand that, but simply repeating the info in the product description doesn't address anything I said in my previous post.

If you read some of the poor reviews in your link, you'll see that people complained about the glass moving around over time due to weak adhesive, or that dust gets trapped underneath. These are the same issues that bothered me with the moshi, caused by having adhesive only around the edges rather than on the entirety of the glass. Hence my original question.

Honestly, there is no perfect glass for our Note4. I'll give up edge-to-edge protection for quality and proper feel, but to each their own. [emoji106]

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] crash_194:
What sefrcoko is saying, you are completely missing the point on.

I understand what he is/was asking and you aren't answering it? Lol

He's asking if the screen protector fully adheres to the screen or just around the edges. Nothing to do with whether the screen protector goes all the way to the edge of the screen or not?

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] :
wow

Wow dude you 2 lol, both of you are so confused, Your sayin what ive been sayin since the start of convo. I get that edge to edge isnt the point, I own it and it fully adheres to whole screen and bonus goes edge to edge. I answered his original question of if it adhered to screen by posting specs sayin it curved at edge and goes edge to edge, no halo
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] crash_194:
Yes but quoting the spec saying it is curved at the edges and it goes edge to edge doesn't say it fully adheres to the screen? Im pretty sure thats what started it Lol

I think we've got there in the end though didn't we?

In all of this screen protector fiasco it kind of makes me wish I'd bought a white phone as any halo is hardly visible at all on the white phones from what I've seen. It seems the screen protectors with the black borders are our only option with a black device :(

sent from my Galaxy Note 4
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] :
Its pretty clear if it goes edge to edge like other phones screen protectors have there would be no ghost, all the screens that are out are to short, hence edge to edge with the fact that its curved gives you factory effect while protecting screen, thank you come again!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] sefrcoko:
I hear what you're saying but the official moshi website also describes their product as having "curved edges", yet their glass didn't adhere to the entire screen like with non-edge-to-edge glass (such as Zagg, Otterbox, etc). So that claim means nothing by itself, based on real-world experience. That was why I asked my question in the first place, even though I already kinda knew the answer ;).

I'm not smoking anything, I've used five different screen protectors and know their intricacies pretty well at this point. You can search this thread or the other tempered glass screen protector threads to see users commenting on the gap between the moshi and the screen. This is why I keep saying that no glass has been perfect on our phones. I'm hardly the first to say that here either. It's always been a trade-off between that gap, a halo, or no edge-to-edge protection. This is why there are so many different tempered glass threads here in the Note 4 section lol.

I don't want to start anything, and I do appreciate you trying to help. I'm just saying the glass you linked looks like the moshi which wasn't perfect for the reasons I mentioned. If you're saying it's fine, I take your word on it. I still find it weird though that no other company has been able to deliver this type of product (even though they likely have more experience and resources), but yet this company does it. On top of that, they offer it at less than $10? Hmm, I think it's understandable for someone to have been skeptical! Haha, all good bro.

And thank you crash_194 for understanding what I was saying and having my back :). Much appreciated! [emoji106]
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] :
all gd

Just tryin to let you guys know!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] crash_194:
Your a mile off with everything your saying and clearly don't understand the basics...

The 2.6d has nothing to do with the screen protector being round, I.e. following the contour of the phone screen. It is the finish on the screen protector itself so you don't feel a sharp edge.

The reason you see no halo on the screen protector you have linked is also nothing to do with edge to edge covering. It's because it has a black border which means you simply can't see the halo. This is the cheat that was originally employed by moshi to hide the halo effect caused by glass screen protectors being rigid and not fully adhering to the curved note 4 screen. The smaller screen protectors are designed to be cut short so they finish before the curved edge of the note 4 screen starts and adhesion is not an issue.

A picture to further demonstrate the 2.6d concept...

You clearly dont get the point, the whole point of this thread was for a nice glass screen protector, the one I linked is ten dollars and no ghost, dont care if its illusion or not. My intent was too help others, not bash. Dont care if anyone takes my advice or not, its a forum with free will, so take it as you will. It went from edge to edge with rounded edges, not sure how much clearer it can get, with no ghost... So Im not understanding your point...is there one??
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] crash_194:
Yes my point is you are the one with a lack of understanding on the questions asked and as a result have contributed nothing useful. You were the one who tried to get all smart with your answers and imo have made you self look unhelpful in a "bashing" manner as you put it... what has this forum come to.

Ignoring the rather "challenged" individual above and as an apology for the off topic I thought I'd post some pictures of the Nuglas screen protector I'm using at the minute.

These are by no means perfect but are ready available and cost me £5 off eBay with free postage.

The quality is good, by no means a fingerprint magnet, feels nice to touch and very OEM. It is however cut short to try and minimise the halo (may be too short for most but it does cover the parts of the screen you will be interacting with.

The box

The screen protector fitted

Apologies the pictures aren't great, I took them with my Mrs S5 and I don't think the camera is great, it always seems to struggle focusing.

I have used a zagg hdx for quite some time but I just get fed up of it harbouring greasy fingerprints.

You can see there is a halo, but in all honesty, in general use it is hardly noticeable, especially when out doors in bright light. I do fully understand though this won't be acceptable to most.

The case I'm using by the way is a tech21 impact tactical (if I remember correctly!).

I got this screen protector in today and an going to install it, but from looking at it, the entire area has a visible grid matrix on it. I hope its not visible once installed, otherwise I'll be sending it back.

I got it installed tonight. I can see the grid matrix some, mostly if the screen brightness is turned down or there are black areas to the image. But on bright images, it doesn't look too noticeable. One thing I noticed when typing in the screen like I am now, I can't hear a bit if a tap/click sound. I'm not sure if there may be a slight space between the screen and the protector, or its just the way this tempered glass protector sounds when being typed upon.

Why would you put a screen guard on a Gorilla Glass 4 device?

I never put any screen guard on my devices that has Gorilla Glass 3 & above.

Gorilla Glass weakness is silica sand & as long as your device is away from it your device is save.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] kabuk1:
I've gotten micro scratches on every gorilla glass device I've owned, and my note 3 screen was saved from cracking by a tempered glass protector. The guard took the hit and the screen was saved. People always say you don't need a screen guard with gg, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] bonerp:
try dropping it without any form of screen protector...
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] d4rkkn16ht:
I am (was) using Gorilla Glass powered devices for about 4 years.

At first I was using screen guard (not tempered glass screen guard as it was none that time) being afraid it will scratched.

But after the last device with GG3, I decided to remove the screen guard & use only phone casing.

To my surprise, GG3 is holding very nice, not even a scratch on it & it's been 2 years of usage (I still keep the device with a perfect screen glass).

Now I also use my Note 4 with cases (I use LED & S-View Cover with Wireless charging interchangeably) without a screen guard.

I've dropped it a few times & it hit the glass screen twice on uneven cement floor & ceramic tile floor....not even a scratch.

On other occasion, the case saved the day.

As I said before, as long as you can avoid sand touching your Note 4 screen, you are good without a screen guard.

Why sand?

In many sand mixtures there high probability of silica grains in it, which is the ultimate enemy of tempered glasses or any glasses.

And I don't know how, sometimes you can get sand inside your pocket & this will be a nightmare for any devices with glass on it.

It's my experience, other than that it's your choice ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] FAUguy:
After using this screen protector for a few days, here are my thoughts...

Likes:

Does cover the entire screen.

No halo.

Nice smooth glass feel to it (since it is glass).

Dislikes:

More reflective than the Gorilla Glass.

Grid array over the screen (why does it have this?) It's mostly visible on dark areas or when screen is dimmed down, or when sun reflects.

The soft keys (recent apps and back) seem to have a smaller responce area.

So for $10, its not bad. I could even get past the grid array, but this glass is so much more reflective, even when used inside. Lamps, overhead lights, sun, all reflect a lot more with it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] bonerp:
Guess the trouble is they are made cheaply - would you pay double for anti reflective like on optical lens??

I've bought a couple of glass ones and found a poor fit etc or glare/poor key response or they chip easily. I've stuck with the iLoome protective screens - the 9h hardened film. They aren't available in the UK so buy from Amazon.com and have the shipped over. They last around 4-6 months and protect perfectly with little to no difference over no protector.

Like others I've found grit/sand even a little will destroy a GG screen. If people don't want to cover it and ever go on a beach, or do garden work, it'll be a mess come reselling.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] FAUguy:
Has anyone tried this one from Coolbo?

http://www.amazon.com/Coolbo-Beautiful-Tempered-Protector-Samsung/dp/B00RO50OI2/

I'm thinking of trying it since this Cailifu model is heavily reflective and has a noticeable grid matrix on the screen.

I could get past the reflectiveness of it, but this grid matrix just looks terrible.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] dpcdpc11:
It all began yesterday when I found a small scratch on my Note 4 display which came from nowhere sice I take good care of my phone, never dropped it, never place it facing down, never have it in my pocket with other things etc. It's not a very visible scratch but I know it's there and I can even feel it with my fingernail.

So for the last 2 days I've been OCDing to find a solution for this to happen again. And of course I don’t want to put such a nice phone in a ****ty case/cover. Since I use the SPen to sketch, a plastic screen protector was out of the question. And my search to find a better solution took me here, looking for a good tempered glass for my Note 4. And this is the key, a solution to MY Note 4. Since serie products can't be 100% identical for some phones seem to work a specific tempered glass and for others none showing up the ****ty halo on the edges.

So the closest solution for me seemed to be the Bodyguardz Glass + Crown which would get rid of the ugly empty space around the glass. But this again will make your phone thinker and less pretty.

But in the end I gave up and I'll just use my phone regularly trying not to worry all the time about it, it has Corning Gorilla Glass 4 after all. And next year I'll just buy the Note 6 or hopefully a phone with a stylus cause honestly I've had enough of Sam****!

I'm guessing most of you Note 4 owners will skip the Note 5 and wait for something better.

It's too bad since the Note 4 could have been a phone to last me a good amount of years.

But there are some deliberate design flaws which are getting pretty annoying each day like the idiotic placement of the main speaker on the back or the useless rounded edges of the screen glass when the phones has sharp metallic edges. The rim and the glass should connect seamlessly. Also I dont understand Samsung's persistence of the physical button on such a narrow bezel! Try holding the phone in landscape to watch a video or something without accidentally touching the capacitive key. I had to disable them and use the on screen buttons using some mode found here on the forum.

Of course all these flaws are intentionally made to give you an extra reason to buy the next and the next phone. And it's pretty ****ty when companies take advantage of their customers when they don't have a choice since the Note series are the only phones with a stylus, which is the main reason I bought it in the first place.

So enough ranting for today. I'll patiently wait for the next phone, hopefully a Note 6 that will not look like a iPhoney and will not have an idiotic glassy back! Until then I'll be waiting for the 5.1.1 root so I can upgrade the os and finally have a chance to enjoy the phone without lag and ****. It freaking took Sam**** a year to fix the recent apps lag and ****ty battery performance that should not have existed in the first place on a flagship phone! Well done!

P.S. come one xda... You're censoring words like $hit? Since when this is a bad word? Internet nowadays is really going to $hit!
