[Nexus 6 Accessories] Radicchio:
I have been following this thread for a while. Thanks to everyone who has posted their experiences with different screen protectors. I don't even have the phone yet, so don't have personal experience to offer.

I was surprised to read a post at Android Central about a Bodyguardz tempered glass screen protector with pictures and a very favorable review. It was not the one sold at AT&T. It was the Bodyguardz Pure anti-glare TGSP. It actually is cut large, like the other Bodyguardz screen protector, so it fits the entire glass and beyond. The reviewer said that he has no halo effects and that the edges are not lifting. Might want to check it out.

Since I don't have a phone yet, I'm just paying close attention to all the comments about TGSP and still debating my choice. I'm hoping that Zagg will release their version soon, although I have seen a negative review from someone who said he got it at the Sprint store. Since Zagg still isn't releasing any on their own site yet, I'm hoping they are redesigning. I really like their installation process---it looks like it would be the easiest one to install (if you can call installing a screen protector "easy").
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Kendaihou:
I contacted Orzly by email through Amazon from GDUB or something because I didn't get my glass protector yet since Dec 1. I got an email back saying they reshipped it immediately.

Who knows when I'll get it. I ordered a case from them before and got it pretty quick but not this time. Great customer service though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
They say that to everyone, its been 1.5 weeks since they said that and a month since my original shipped.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] MaelstromXC:
That's what happened to me except I emailed them and they did not reply. I submitted a claim with Amazon and GHub refunded me the next day. To be honest, I rather have the product than the money back as I will need some form of screen protection when I get my phone.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
They refunded me as well. Now let's see if they really did ship it and one actually shows up...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
Just received the "updated" XtremeGuard/Prestige Solutions/Spartan TG in the mail. I don't have time right now to install it (will do it tonight), but i snapped a few pics.

First thing is, they now ship it in a generic retail packaging. There are no cutouts for the proximity sensor or FF camera on this one. Just a quick look, it still looks like it may be too big for the curved edges. I will let you all know later today (wish me luck!)

EDIT: just noticed on the inside of the packaging, it said it is a "curvy border glass membrane"
[Nexus 6 Accessories] radeon962:
I got mine the other day as replacements for my original order which were too large and did not adhere to the curved edge.

They just made them smaller so that they cover the flat part of the screen only. The edges are not covered but it covers the majority of the screen with no bubbling around the edges.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
Did your replacement come in that generic retail packaging also? Because all of my orders with them in the last few years always shipped out in a padded envelope or glassine envelope. If it covers what it looks like it does, with no halo, then I am happy, because with a case on it, its pretty close to the edges
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
I just e-mailed Xtremeguard. Here's what I wrote:

Hi, I ordered the spartan tempered glass protector for the Nexus 6 and it didn't quite fit right. I was reading a forum and someone stated that you were now shipping a revised version of the tempered glass protector for the Nexus 6. Is this information regarding the Nexus 6 glass protector true? Thanks for your time and consideration - Carpathian

I didn't include my order # as they have already refunded me for that order & I was going to place another order if they were indeed sending out the revised version(if I ordered from xtremeguard.com, not the e-bay link provided earlier)

Here is the response provided:

I am sorry you had any trouble whatsoever with your order. We sincerely care about your satisfaction. I have gone ahead and issued a Replacement for your order, expect it in 4-12 business days.

Your order has shipped. (Order#: ****** placed on 11/10/2014)

That was nice of them. I still ordered one off ebay, I will compare all three when I receive them. Suspecting the two that are in the mail now will be the same, but I hope they are different from the original I received nearly a month ago. Keep you guys updated on the hunt for the best TG available.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
I'm very happy. Got my Orzly today and just installed it. It is short and I don't know if I would have been happy with it by itself but I was able to peel up my d brand front skin to reuse and then put the Orzly down and then the d brand back over it. It fits amazing...with some heat it fits around the curve of the glass protector perfectly and fills in the little curved area that was exposed. Here are a few pics. My only issue was making sure the Orzly was aligned properly so it didnt get the halo effect by putting it over too far. Love the glass feeling again.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
Great, thanks for the pics. I'm going to attempt the skin over the TG when/if my device ever arrives.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
The key is just to get everything aligned properly and use lots of heat. It will probably be easier too if you're using a new skin...mine had already been used.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Does it still peel when you stick it in a case with the orzly? Do you have a case that you could out it in and post some pictures?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
No I don't have a case. Sorry. Never did like them. That's why I went the skin only method. I don't know if it would peel but I would worry about that.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I guess I'll find out if my orzly ever shows up.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Just a little alert, I'm actually having an issue with my Orzly. Despite being cut short the one I have doesn't seem to be attaching correctly by one speaker and slightly on one side and it is noticeable. There is a slight halo effect. I was meticulous at aligning it correctly so I don't think it was that. The d brand skin over it helps a bit but I've decided to contact them and see what they say. It's a shame cause it feels so nice!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Pictures?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] tbird302:
My local zagg dealer just called me said the got the new ones in will report back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
This supports what I was saying about this being an adhesive problem, not the cut.

There can also be issues when applying in a steamed up bathroom. I.e. you don't want moisture under the protector. It may stick fine at first, but with the heat from the display, or if you add heat, say from a hair dryer to "aid" the process, you will get vaporization under the glass, which will prevent adhesion.

I've always had the best results by turning the phone off and making sure its cool to touch.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Thanks for the advice. I think you may be correct about an adhesive problem. They said they would send me a replacement anyway.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] eep2378:
I also emailed Xtreme gaurds regarding their spartan shield. I received two of them about 3-4 weeks ago. I'm not thrilled with the halo effect around the edges. It''ll do for now but like others have stated, hopefully they'll send me the revised version to see how if the fit improves.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jcarlm:
Reading all these comments with issues makes me think I will just go with zaggs hdx screen protector. I would like to have glass but I want the screen covered.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Gater2011:
The "updated" JellyComb is supposed to be here today... If you guys want pics or impressions let me know.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] tbird302:
Just got back from zagg because he called so I thought they got new glass still same cut. BAD. Tried to get me to pay for it. So I got an hdx to replace the one he took off.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Radicchio:
Gater, Yes, please do let us know what you think and pictures would be good, too.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] VinceThePrince:
Does it still cover the proximity sensor? My first TG from them gave me proximity issues, I'm currently waiting on the revised version to ship
[Nexus 6 Accessories] radeon962:
Yes, the only cutouts are for the top and bottom speakers.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mnsportsguy1978:
This is interesting because I ordered the same product and am having a halo effects, I just contacted them to see what they say
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ucfknight2:
FYI, I have ordered 3 orzly protectors. One installed perfectly. He other two had areas near the camera and bottom speaker that would not adhere to the screen.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Gater2011:
Got the "updated" Jellycomb..*sigh*
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
I read here on the forums that every Nexus 6 has a different amount of screen curve at the edges, this is probably why to some people it fits perfectly while others it doesn't
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jay661972:
Zagg is already available, Sprint store for now...

Sent from my Nexus 6 running SinlessRom
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I have two of the updated Jellycombs. I dont know how the fit is, because I haven't tried it. But if you want, I can send you one.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Did you apply it yet?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Nocturnal86:
edit
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ALUOp:
Just a warning to people who don't like to use a case and want to use these "updated" or smaller version screen protectors.

Think twice.

My phone dropped out of my pocket this afternoon when I was getting out of my car, and it fell onto concrete ground.

Because the edges were not protected there are now one big chip on one corner, one small chip on another, and one small scratch on yet another.

Luckily the screen was intact, probably because it was only about one foot from the ground when it was dropped.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] StephenP85:
I generally don't use TG screen protectors with expectation of any kind of drop protection, though I understand that it's generally supposed to be one of the perks. I just like the scratch protection. As much as I try to be conscious about where I my phone, it will always end up in the same pocket as my keys, face down on the desk, sliding around in the passenger seat of my car, etc.

Also, just made an account to say that I also ordered one of the EZguardz screens from ebay. Tracking says it will be delivered Monday. I'll apply it and post pics Monday. I first ordered the Orzly TG screen protector. Unfortunately, mine arrived with a broken seal, and the protective backing had bubbles, showing signs it had been applied by someone else, botched, and then repackaged and returned. Full of lint and dust of course. This was from Amazon. Oddly enough, this is not the first time I've received a tempered glass screen protector from Amazon that was an obvious customer return. It fits well though. Depending on how the ebay one looks will dictate whether I return for replacement or refund.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ALUOp:
EZ Guards is the same as Xtreme Guard.

I have the updated version, and it's the same as the one posted here. It is smaller but without proximity sensor cutout.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57454467&postcount=616

I think I'll apply a Dbrand skin on the front to help protect it if it drops again, sigh.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] StephenP85:
Gotcha... So this one is an older version, with the camera cutout?

(this is pic from the ebay listing)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ALUOp:
Do you actually trust the pictures on ebay? Seems like this member bought it from the same seller:

[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I'm done. All of these TSG's are a crock. I've even received the updated Xtreme Guard/Spartan/Prestige one, the updated JellyRoll one, none of these are right. All of the ones I had create a halo. In order not to have a halo, they have to be cut too small. Anyone that says they have a good TSG with no halo is talking ish. Enough of this wasting money, I am going back to my wet-apply plastic screen protectors where they actually mold and bend with the curves, and give the clear glass look too.

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ----------

I think my comment above sums it up.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ALUOp:
Wet-apply is best for coverage; they have slight orange peel effect though.

I do have one here. Had I installed it instead, I wouldn't have these chips now on my phone :(.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Nocturnal86:
My new revised xtreme guard fits perfect no halo best fit I have seen! I have some micro bubbles in various areas that won't stick down, only around the edges and probably because I kept lifting and reapplying it. At first it messed with the Proximity sensor but I toggled "end call with power button" and rebooted and its all good now! Im gonna rock it till it messes up cause I have another to install.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] rufflez2010:
Took forever to ship. I odered it before thanksgiving and I got it Friday. Also, the item feels like hard plastic, not glass. The worst part, doesnt have the cut-out for the proximity sensor like the ad shows. I don't have my phone yet, so I don't know if the speaker cut-out is wide enough to also include the proximity sensor, but it doesn't look like the image on the site.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
I read that apparently every nexus 6 has a different amount of screen curve
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
I'm not sure how you can say I'm talking "ish" as I posted pictures of the protector perfectly fitting with no halo or lifting. I just wish I didn't have that stupid snowflake like mark on it. Still waiting on the replacement.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I can live with the orange peel. I have been for years. I actually had a BSE wet-apply skin on this phone while waiting for these updated replacement TSG's to come in. The BSE skins were the best I have seen so far for the Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] clninja:
Very sad that tempered glass protectors don't go all the way to edge and create a halo effect.. I always use tempered glass.

Any solutions for a protector that also offers impact protection other than zagg hdx or tech21

I think I'm going to end up going with an HDX from zagg ( dry install). They are a huge improvement over their standard screen protector .. I just hope it doesn't yellow over time like the regular one does
[Nexus 6 Accessories] thatdudebutch:
Can we see a pic?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Radicchio:
Oh no! You finally get it and it's cracked. Sorry.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] r34p3rex:
Got my updated Jellycomb protector. They cut it even smaller than the first one, but now the proximity sensor and FFC aren't blocked. No halo!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] androidtoy09:
Pictures please!

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] StephenP85:
I don't necessarily trust the pictures, but given all the revisions coming out, it would not even surprise me if not everyone was getting the same design. I've also only tried two designs so far. The first one had the inaccurate cutout where it didn't extend far enough to the camera. I returned that one, and it's not even listed on Amazon anymore. The second one is the Orzly which looks like it fits fine because of the shorter cuts, but takes some surgeon like precision since the width is exactly the width of the display. Unfortunately, I got one that looks used. I feel bad returning yet another one to Amazon (I know amazon can flag accounts with excessive returns), but Orzly support already told me they won't help and that I just need to send it to Amazon.

If this EZGuards from eBay doesn't work out, I'll probably just get another Orzly and put a dbrand skin over it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mikgabo:
Hey everyone, new to XDA.

I just ordered a inskin tempered glass screen protector for my nexus 6. Does anyone out there have one and if so can you provide some pics?

Cheers and Merry Christmas!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
Just put on my Orzly,, and man is it small. I'm not sure how everyone positioned theirs but the way mine is position I don't even need the top cut out it could be straight across and not interfere with anything

, I also still have one small spot above the bottom speaker on the left side that's not it sticking... But that may be from when I lifted it up to reposition the first time
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Parvinder25:
No man. There's some issue with it at the bottom. Mine also doesn't stick near the bottom speaker and i know I placed it very well in first go. It has that snow flake kinda look. I have had it for 4 days now and every day the unsticky part seems to expand. I think it won't hold long.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
I guess it's like that one guy keeps saying it must be just an adhesive issue they need to put extra around the edges
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Next time, try using the hinge method to applying screen protectors, it ensures that you have it alligned perfectly and you dno't have to reapply
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jarjar124:
Got new jelly comb. Here's the new cut out comparing the old vs new. I'll keep the new one on until scratches happen.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jasonleb1:
Mine shipped the day after i bought it and it will be here tomorrow morning. So at the very least the quality of my shipment was much better than yours. Just hope the same goes for the quality of the screen protector itself...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
My orzly has just arrived and my ezguard is coming at the end of the week, should I open my orzly as it says "no refunds or exchanges if the seal is broken". I'd prefer the maximum coverage of the ezguard but if the orzly doesn't provide a halo effect then I would want to use that. What should I do. My phone hasn't arrived yet either :'(

I want to keep whichever fits and return whichever doesn't.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Speaking of orzly...

I just got my package right now, I'm afraid of opening it because I might want to return it if the XtremeGuard is any good
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jcarlm:
My nexus 6 will be here on Wednesday. After all I've read on here I went ahead and ordered a zagg hdx so it will cover the whole screen. Is there any tg that cover the whole screen yet?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Not yet (at least not one that actually sticks) iloome might make one (it depends on what they make)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] StephenP85:
I'd wait for the EZGuard. I'm in the same boat. I thought my EZGuard was coming today (USPS tracking said estimate delivery date of today, but it's still in another state and the mail has come and gone). I'll probably get my EZguard last. It's half the price so I'm probably just going to apply that first. If it's good, keep it and return the other. If it's crap, toss it and put on the other which I know will fit.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
Yeah my delivery estimate is this Friday or some point in January. I live in the UK so I can get the orzly quickly but the ezguard comes from USA. I might send the orzly back now and when the phone comes (which is its own problem to say the least), see if the ezguard fits, if not then buy another orzly as I have 6 plastic ringke protectors
[Nexus 6 Accessories] qnzesc0bar:
I have ordered the Casebase and am having the same problem I had with BodyGuardz pure. It seems there is variation from device to device with how flat the screen itself is. I know the edges are curved, but the screen itself may be curved on many devices. As a result, the protector just will not sit flat. I dont know if I can put up with this lifting, as it looks ugly. The protector itself is fantastic though. Feels great and sits everywhere else just fine.

What do you all think?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Zenzr:
I couldn't do it. I would hate that. Even if it's off a millimeter it's too much for me.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CasebaseAcc:

'Hi, for those of you worried about the delivery times showing on Amazon, please do not worry as these are just what Amazon state and which our resellers cannot change. However orders to USA usually get there in about 1-2 weeks. We have the glass screen protectors in stock, and because of the curved screen - we have had to make them smaller than the screen size. However the fitting is optimised for the best coverage without any air being trapped and creating bubbles. We also have normal screen protectors for those who are looking for more coverage against scratches etc although it won't offer as much protection as the glass version. Thanks
[Nexus 6 Accessories] h0bnail:
Gave up on Orzly and filed a claim on Amazon. Probably just hold off now until someone consistently produces one that works.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
Update on the extreme guard from eBay.

I got the replacement and it fits perfectly again. No halo and covers as I showed in my previous posts. I still haven't received either of the Orzly that I was supposedly sent.

I'm going to order another as a backup now
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Wanna post a picture?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
It literally looks exactly the same as the other pics I posted but with no snowflake type defect on the screen. My son is using the nexus 5 ATM and I'm cooking dinner. Maybe later
[Nexus 6 Accessories] l3thalsab3r:
Finally got my xtremeguard glass after placing an order with them last thursday. Which is when they got their revised versions. Hopefully this is the revised one as I don't have their first version to check against.

So here's some pics to compare between the orzly and xtremeguard. The first 4 pictures and underneath are the ozrly.

I'll post more pictures and feedback in a bit after I put the xtremeguard on.

I couldn't figure out how to post the smaller versions of my pictures, so here's a link to the album instead.

https://imgur.com/a/llpsV

Sorry for all the lint, I just took it straight out of my pocket and started snapping pictures.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Kendaihou:
So I finally got my phone and put the ozrly on. Although, Its small its very good quality and went on the screen with no problems. I got one tini spider web at the top that I can't fix but whatever I'm pretty happy right till something better comes along.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
Put on my Jelly Comb updated version and can finally say I'm happy..... 99.5% prefect just a couple micro bubbles in one small spot
[Nexus 6 Accessories] qnzesc0bar:
You think I should just return this? I'm thinking of just giving up and not going tempered glass. There is no way I can get a good fit. This is covering just the screen and I am STILL getting lifting off of the edge.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Wow you are lucky, my replacement got shipped 2 weeks ago and it's supposed to take 15-25 days for international orders
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
, I had my Orzly one on for only a day and it is going back to Amazon tomorrow

Lol I just realized I quoted myself instead of editing my post
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
I thought it says on the pack that after the seal is broken you can't return it
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
I ordered mine from Amazon and anything that is sold by or fulfilled by Amazon you can always return back to Amazon
