I'm interested in what you think of it. i want to buy one, I'm not sure which one is the best though.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Chadie:
I would definitely share my experience; but I can't install it anytime soon. the stock sp here is still scratch free.

I bought the pthink because it had a lot of great reviews on amazon (for different model) and one person did say that it leaves zero fingerprints. The current stock sp already reduced that by 80% (I used the phone sp-less for 5 days and that was a fingerprint magnet).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] hamsup1o:
I had one on the nexus 5 and it definitely feels better than the nillkin one I have on the z3c. The pthink also doesn't show fingerprints like the nillkin.

Could you tell me how the cutouts for the front speakers and sensors are on the pthink for the z3c? are they precise cutouts or are they large cutouts that extends to the edge of the phone? trying to decide if I should switch. only reason I've stuck with the nillkin is because it has precise cutouts. TIA!

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Chadie:
It is exactly like the cutouts of the stock screen protector but without a hole for the front camera.... Don't know how that will affect selfies.... [emoji17]

Even the bottom is similar to the stock
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] hamsup1o:
thanks for the pic. unfortunately that's what I was assuming the cutouts would look like. I'll stick with the nillkin one for now. thanks again!

I bought the Ultimate Shield tempered glass, and now my double tap to wake doesn't work properly. Sometimes I have to tap very hard on the screen to make it works, sometimes it takes 5 or 6 taps.

Very sad about it.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] darthaled:
It is not because Ultimate Shield, with the last update (.77) double tap to wake works only if you move or hold in your hand the phone. If you try to tap when the phone is on the table you have to do it some times more or it doesn't work.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Alan Slade:
Why have they done such a stipid thing?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] darthaled:
I don't know. I used to tap when the phone is on the desk to check the notification, now I can't do it anymore so I have to move it to activate movement sensor to be able to screen on via tap.

Now often on the desk I have to use hardware button :(

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] jarayn:
That's absolutely not true.

Something else is wrong with your phone. It works exactly like before. Tap to wake works on a table or in the hand.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Ethenyl:
Exactly, works like a charm for me even with the latest FOTA update. Something is messing with your phone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] darthaled:
If it were like you're saying the last update break this, because before every doubletap was ok. But someone else like me notice this fact, I'm not the only one

Nillkin tempered glass protector bought from ebay for £5.95 with free delivery. Seems good to me. Good cut, good price and easy to install. Only issue now is that the phone did not fit in the dock but i've managed to file away some of the plastic on the dock so it now fits.

IVSO Perfect Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (off of Amazon Canada); very easy application and came with this blue "electrostatic precipitation film" that made getting dust and stuff off the sticky part easy. Edges are flush with the phone and unnoticeable/I can't feel it. Oh and ignore the stuff on the middle (I didn't wipe before taking a picture); I can assure you the glass is as clear as water.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Craig89:
Hey I see your in the UK, have you got a link for that screen protector, it looks good.

How are you finding it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] jmoore2:
Here is the link http://m.ebay.com/itm/191379268530?_mwBanner=1

It feels ok to me. I've never used a tempered glass protector before so I don't have a comparison. However, I can say it looks very clear and feels good to use. It does pick up fingerprints maybe slightly more easily than the phone glass but nothing major.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Craig89:
Perfect thanks. I'm going to fit one front and back.

I have used them for a while now and will always use them now as I put one to the test by accidentally slamming my phone in the car door, smashed the screen protector to pieces but the screen was perfect underneath!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] kdma:
Today my z3c fell down and this tempered glass protector broke but saved the screen!

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] ellie3009:
I'm not a robot

Can anyone confirm if having the front camera lens covered by the tempered glass affects the photos?

I was looking at the Nillkin one, but it looks like it doesn't have a cutout for the camera.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] jmoore2:
I have the Nillkin protector. I am not big on the "selfie" so when I use the front facing camera (which isn't very often!) It is for video calls. I have no doubt that the quality will technically be lower but I can notice no difference whatsoever. I imagine for a (relatively) low quality camera, an extra layer of glass will make no noticeable difference.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Craig89:
Are the edges chamfered on the nillkin ones?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] jmoore2:
This is the first glass protector I have used so I am unsure how a chamfered one would feel but the edges do feel fairly sharp so I don't think they are chamfered
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Craig89:
Thanks for the reply, yeah the chamfered ones are smooth to touch on the edge, standard are quite sharp like you say
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] rexet:
How did you file your dock, I am interested to do the same :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] jmoore2:
Very poorly. I used a hand file then attempted to smooth everything off with some fine sandpaper. It doesn't look good but it works.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] rexet:
Thank you. I thought about filing mine but I don't feel good about it :( !

I also bought a Nillkin H+ glass and I love it but I also love using the dock for charging.

Maybe I should look for another third party dock that could fit.

I have a front AND back tempered glass screen protector and the Ringke fusion and I can charge my phone without a problem in the original dock.

Devilcase Tempered Glass

I just recently bought my devilcase tempered glass, it is rlly cool. But I am getting paranoid of something atm.

I got a very tiny hairline scratch (I dont know if its a scratch or a crack) it is like a tiny "J" with the curve yes.

Is it possible I obtain the scratch from my nail? Because I remember I strike my phone with my nails but I dont recall I have a sharp edge in it.

I wonder if curve happens in crack as well? If crack how to know if the crack comes from the tempered glass and not from my phone screen?

UltimateShield corner cracked clean off

Hi guys, thought I'd throw this experience out there. Sat down & phone slipped out of front pocket--and dropped 15 inches to the wood floor. When I picked the phone up, the left corner of the UltimateShield tempered glass screen protector had broken. Just a small piece--but enough to snag a finger on, looked pretty bad too, so I peeled the thing off.

On the one hand, perhaps it saved my screen? On the other, it was a short drop onto wood, & I'm surprised that it chipped off so easily. Am I expecting too much from my tempered glass screen protection? I've replaced it with a RhinoShield, which I don't like as much.

Are my expections too high for sturdy glass screen protection? I'm not loving the RhinoShield (Just a feel thing. Got used to the glass feel & plastic film doesn't feel as good anymore.)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Dsteppa:
I had the same thing with my UltimateShield, in the end the scratch was just on the protector itself, if you want to be sure you'll have to remove it, or lift it up, but it might cost you another one.

I have thrown mine many times on wood, no problem, in the end it met it's ruler in a concrete wall. It can really take a lot, you might have just been unlucky.

Just don't forget that even tho you have a Tempered Glass screen protector, you also need a case.

And please tell me, what would you rather replace? Your phone's digitizer or a 10GBP screen protector? It's a really easy choice for me. But in the end I understand you, I assume that it is/was your first tempered glass screen protector, so you didn't fully get to enjoy it. I've been using them for a while and I've got one on my Xperia Z for more then a year now (Just 1 for an entire year). It also saved my Galaxy Note back in the days when it fell while I was biking.

So don't give up on these things, because they are really worth the money! :good:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] dryvine:
Ultimate Shield broke

Yes, it's my 1st tempered glass protector: love the feel.

Surprised it took so little to break it. I'm just not sure I want to spend $$ & time to get the Ultimate Shield shipped from Britain every time it breaks.

Having said that, I have re-ordered from Ultimate Shield & also from a different brand via Ebay. I'm going to try the Ebay temp glass protector 1st since it will arrive far before the Ultimate one does. If/when that protector breaks, I can try the Ultimate again. In the mean time, I continue to be happy the protector broke, not my screen. But if my screen had broken from such a short fall, I'd be supremely pissed & would doubt the veracity of the glass used on my phone.

Perhaps, as you suggest, I got a 'bad' one, or a weakened one, or perhaps the strength expectations I had are/were overblown? I think that's the main thing--I'm wondering why such a short, relatively 'gentle' drop would break it? It feeds into my concerns that some of us might be paying for premium protection, but getting subpar product. There's no real way to tell.

(I didn't buy from that seller, just showing how it looks because there seem to be one one for our phone)

But it really isn't that great, it feels like normal glass and you can't use flash with it. But my phone fell a few times and I threw it a few times and it's still 100%

In the end my phone is as if it only had the Ringke Fusion case, since it's not thicker and I have more protection. Still looking for a better tempered glass protector for the back, if there will ever be one. I believe there is also one without cutouts for the camera.

Aerios Tempered Glass Screen protector

I am quite happy with my tempered glass protector from Aerios. I did find application a bit difficult and the protector isn't on exactly straight but the margin for error is quite large so it still fits the screen well. I have found that is still picks up fingerprints and smudges however not as bad as the bare screen. I have also notices tiny scratches but these are only visible under certain light. Overall I am quite happy.

I got mine here: https://www.aerios.com.au/product/sony-xperia-z3-compact-tempered-glass-screen-protector/

The tempered glass is good and the edge isn't sharp so the transition is very smooth.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] INFRNL:
I have had good luck with my Nillkin, and there is no protector that holds up for me, but nillkin is doing great so far

the ultimateshield is not a tempered glass protector. The point of these protectors is to save the phones screen and they do just that. the ultimateshield is like the xtremeguard protector, its a rubbery skin type protector. I do not like these types for the actual screen but will use them for the back.

From what I have found, the Nillkin has the best design and looks and works great, however I do not like the back protector from nillkin, its just a cheap non-tempered protector. I will be getting a xtremeguard for the back.

everyone has their preference and I will stick with the Nillkin amazing H+ for front and will be trying xtremeguard on back. as long as you are happy with your ultimateshield is what matters most to you but I cannot do anything but tempered on front

Can either of you post a shot of what the ultimate shield protectors actually look like. For now I'm using my nillkin and have a spare.

One thing I noticed and not sure if it's the nillkin or not, but sometimes it seems like my touch is not registering properly. I mainly notice it playing a stupid game I have on there for one of my kids. I put the protector on as soon as I got the phone so I am not sure what the cause is exactly. Not a big deal cause I have other bugs from lollipop anyway and the phone works fine for what I mainly use it for.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Guids:
I am giving nillkin another shot. Couple of month ago I posted that mine scratched easily, might have been a fake one from eBay. Since I had bought another nillkin from AliExpress for my sister, and that is doing a good job. Although her actual screen did break while using the tempered glass! I was unhappy to see that happening. Maybe an awkward fall, I don't know. The tempered glass still looks intact.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] petr232:
You can easily check if the Nillkin is fake or not on their site (Customer Service - Authentication).

Hi , im new here and really need some advice.

I purchased a Z3 this week and bought it second hand , even though it is new but without box. I found out it has the dreaded demo app installed because i think it was ex-display in a phone shop. Once i plug in the charge it deletes my photos,contacts,apps etc. and comes up with the demo video. Iv'e tried the codes people usually use and done something else using the computer someone suggested ,but nothing works. I was thinking about rooting the phone but after looking on forums i can't seem to find anything to explain how to root it or even if it's possible yet because its a new phone. Iv'e tried to delete the app it has but it just keeps coming back. So need to find someone way that is like rooting the phone to get access to delete it permanently. If anyone can help , would be much appreciated. Thanks:good:
