[Nexus 6 Accessories] HyperM3:
Finally heard back from Bodyguardz on my email complaint to them about the fitment of the pure guard:

"Alex,

Thank you for contacting us. Similar to the HTC One X, Nokia Lumia 920, and Samsung Galaxy S3, the screen of the Nexus 6 is beveled (curved) around the edges. Since a flat glass screen protector will not stick to a curved phone, the edges of the screen protector float slightly, giving the appearance of peeling up. To ensure our screen protectors are compatible with as many cases as possible, we shrank the dimensions. This allows for cases which wrap around the edges of the phone to fit without peeling up the screen protector. While you may notice a difference in the appearance of your phone, the tradeoff is outstanding protection against drops, scratches, and shattering. These products are not defective - they were intentionally designed to fit the phone as closely as possible given the curved screen.

If you are not happy with this our ScreenGuardz UltraTough is a polyurethane screen protector that, while not offering the same drop or shatter protection, will better conform to the curvature of the phone's screen. We would be happy to send you a replacement protector in the UltraTough material to try if you would like. Please let us know if this is something that you would like and we will be happy to assist you with this further.

Thank you,

Ashley"

My response was that I thought offering me the least expensive protection they offer as a consolation was a smack in the face. I asked for their new HD Impact protection as a fair option. If that didnt work for them, I was still in the window for a full return. Im waiting to hear back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
Is it just me, or does this look like its been cut unnecessarily short. Looks to me at least 3mm short of the curve.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] chrisjcks:
Yes, it's just you. :)

If you can find images of a bigger glass protector that doesn't have bubbles or the halo effect due to it being too large - I'd be interested to see it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
While I'm aware that this is plastic, it does however go to just shy of the curve. The entire area covered by this protector is completely flat. If glass protectors with a similar cut are not sticking on this flat surface, I'm afraid that is an adhesive issue.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] chrisjcks:
Nope - plastic protectors should be able to go edge to edge (especially wet application versions), that is expected, glass protectors aren't like that - it has zero to do with adhesive.

Go have a look at all glass protectors that users have used on the N6 - see if you find one that is edge to edge or larger without any bubbles or halo effects.

I'm guessing that image doesn't exist.

It sounds to me like plastic is the way to go for you though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
What you're saying is that glass can't adhere to a flat surface. Is the screen not perfectly flat up to the start of the radiused curve at the edge? If so, then it should stick. If not, then it is either an adhesive issue, or the curve at the edge is mor like 8-10mm wide.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Kendaihou:
I ordered an Orzly glass protector. It shipped December 1st and I'm still waiting on it. Don't know if I should email them yet.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] chrisjcks:
Do you really think all these companies havn't tried to make them bigger?

Orzly are already on their 3rd iteration I believe.

If you find a larger one, without bubbles or halo effects - do share.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
The orzly is so small its almost painful to look at. I'm almost glad mine never came. I might just stick with plastic... I know its due to the phones shape but the orzly is an eye sore and it doesn't protect he edges or anything other Han the screen.

Time to wait on iloome now.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] h0bnail:
Yes, you should. Can't promise it will do any good, but they claim to be sending me another.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] uhguy:
Well my Orzly came in but I'm returning it. I'm not sure if I got a bad one or what, but there is a big bubble in it despite cleaning it very well. I've installed multiple tempered protectors and never once had this issue. Also, you have to be insanely precise when installing the protector as it is the EXACT width of the screen. It's a shame this phone is curved because it would be nice to be able to cover all of the glass. Oh well, guess I'll go naked.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] eurominican:
Hope a proper tempered glass screen protector comes out soon and on the cheap. I got the zagg and its awful (not the quality but the edges due to curved screen)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] venturizhou:
Basically at this point I'm just waiting to see what iLoome comes out with and hopefully they do something similar to their iPhone 6/6+ design. If not I'll seriously consider getting something like Rhino Shield at that point or whichever plastic screen protector has the smoothest feeling.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Drefsab:
I've not got my nexus 6 yet, so I will stick with the orzly one (if it comes) until something better comes along, its only cheap to be fair and its better than naked or plastic, I think with the cases it will be less noticeable.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] limen123:
Ordered my Orzly on 11/12, still haven't gotten it. Decided to email them and ask about it yesterday since I was never given tracking. All they said was sorry and sent me another. I'm glad, but they didn't have to. I really was just curious why it was taking so long. I don't even have a Nexus 6 yet.. XD
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
Just got an email that my updated jelly comb is on the way....
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Skripka:
LOL.

I'm still waiting for reports of tg protectors that reliably fit that are Amazon Prime and that are in stock. Been using a modded iSmooth protector for the time being.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Drefsab:
They told me the same thing sorry we will send out another. They seam to be awfully quick to resend another. That makes me think something odd has been going on with their shipping.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
I wonder would it be too tacky to put a plastic screen protector under a glass screen protector?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I asked them for proof of shipment and they said they don't have any.

Has anyone who actually received it from them without prime received it from the UK? I'm starting to think that there's something strange going on here because mine "shipped" way back in early November with the first batch and it hasn't arrived over here on the east coast from the UK.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Skripka:
I have to ask...why on earth would you even want to bother trying?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
To have the greater coverage area of the plastic screen protector but also the nice smooth feeling and fingerprint resistant of the glass screen protector

---------- Post added at 06:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 AM ----------

Unless someone knows of a plastic screen protector that is thicker than normal has a very hard surface and also a oleophobic coating.... Then I may just be ok with that
[Nexus 6 Accessories] g33k3r:
Don't know if anyone saw this yet but.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] sn0warmy:
Me too. :highfive:
[Nexus 6 Accessories] drgonzo712:
This looks promising. Did you order one? I hope it goes edge to edge as stated.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] MaelstromXC:
Since we have not seen any "working" glass protector that goes edge to edge, I doubt this one would work. I would probably risk and buy it if it's $15. $35 is too steep for no photo/review
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
I ordered one from ebay - ezguard - Sorry i cant get the link right now because my work computer blocks it.

Anyways - the fit is perfect. No halo or bubbles around the edge. My issue is there is a defect in the top middle of the screen protector that looks like a snowflake. It's about half the size of a pencil eraser and not noticeable with the screen on. I'm waiting for a replacement and assuming that it's defect free i'm completely satisfied. I don't remember exactly what i paid, but it was something like $6-7. Shipping took forever though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
ok i pulled out my N5 from the bag and photographed the N6 with the screen protector on. I also decided that if i was going to stop being lazy that i would pull up the link too.

Link: http://m.ebay.com/itm/331389420757?nav=SEARCH
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Damn that looks nice, but when did you order it?

I'm pretty sure EZGuard is the same thing as the SpartanShieldz and I heard they made an updated version that fits it perfectly
[Nexus 6 Accessories] natezire71:
I agree. They could have made it a little longer and a tad wider. This looks like it is only good for covering the display.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
i ordered it 11/24 using that link. When i bought it, the price was a little under $6. It's a little more now.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] wattsja:
Does the proximity sensor work when in a call?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
yup - no issues with that
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
I'm going to email Amazon as well.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Just wrote them about canceling my original order from the UK. I'm not going to wait anymore. Going to pay the extra for the US store one.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] msd24200:
For $6.99 with free shipping I'll give it a try!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
yeah - i thought the same thing when it was ~$6. Keep in mind, like i mentioned, it took a LONG time to show up. 16 days for me - also i did have a flaw on mine that they agreed to replace (that snowflake like imperfection i mentioned). I'm currently waiting on my replacement. Hopefully defect free!

[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I just bought 2 let's see how they were, I also bought the Orzly one so hopefully one of them is good.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] slidesear:
Took advantage of the deal and got one for the Nexus 6 for me, S5 for a friend, and for the Note 4 for my wife.

Not a bad way of spending 18 dollars.

Tapped from my Note 3
[Nexus 6 Accessories] dleonard1122:
I could be misreading it, but after going to their website, the $6 screen protector is a regular film screen protector, not tempered glass. They do have a tempered glass option for $50+

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] overlord727:
You're correct. But, if you use the promo code, you can get the tempered glass one for about $6!

EDIT:

Promo code is 90off1

You can use the promo code on your entire order though..
[Nexus 6 Accessories] dleonard1122:
I see. I probably should have read the other thread. Thanks!

---------- Post added at 01:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------

Requested to Cancel my Orzly tempered glass screen protector which was $13 and had an est delivery date on 12/12-12/24.

Instead, ordered 1 Xtreme Guard tempered glass screen protector, and 2 regular screen protectors for a total of $7.40 (after tax & shipping)

Can't beat it!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] limen123:
Definitely ordering the Orzly for mine. Was going to wait for iLoome, which was who I used for my S3 and S4, but it seems Orzly is trustworthy as well.

Also, I'm trying to decide between two cases. I wanted TPU with a clear back, and these are the two that I've come to a standstill on. Anyone wanna help me choose? I'm getting a white model btw. Deciding between:

Spigen Ultra Hybrid - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OH4HY3G/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5

[Nexus 6 Accessories] RedBlueGreen:
I bought this brand for my OnePlus One... It was my first glass screen protector and i was amazed by it. Looking from the ones you guys have posted they are missing a bit of protection where the top and bottom speaker grills are. This one isnt.

Its also a twin pack.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Mine already shipped 2 days ago I'll post pictures when they arrive.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] lensgrabber:
Orzly had a price drop on Amazon $7.99. I think it was $12.99 when added to my wishlist earlier.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] garyHal:
Will Amazon refund the difference if I ordered it at $13?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ejkeebler:
I just emailed them to ask, i'm guessing they won't, but you never know. I also asked them about this alleged "screen curve".
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Thank you. Please let us know what they say about both questions.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ejkeebler:
This is the response I got back, i emailed them separately about refund and screen curve. So there may still be an update for the refund.

Hello Jared,

The screen protector is also curved and should fit the screen perfectly.

Regards

Rob

Not the glowing endorsement I was hoping for, but its good enough for me.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Thanks. It's not to expensive so I'll give it a try too.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Master Ramy:
Check out the xtremeguards spartan tempered glass for n6, it's 59.99 but use coupon code 90off1 and you can get it for 6!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I already posted that. Give credit where credit is due.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] limen123:
Hmm, I just got a notification from Amazon saying my Spigen Ultra Hybrid case has shipped, but the date is 3 weeks from now. Does anyone know where these are coming from? China?

I hope my TG protector gets shipped soon too then, if that's the case. I got mine from Orzly. Should I order the XtremeGuard one as well? It seems like it'd be a better, more reliable one, being $60.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stephenta:
it comes from irvine, ca

Mine shipped yesterday and I got mine today as it was local. regular usps first class shipping
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Got the email confirmation that my Tempered Glass screen protector from Orlyz has shipped.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] msd24200:
Thanks for the find/share just ordered one!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
Is it possible you could take a picture of that snowflake.

XDA is really making me spend money, I've purchased 3 cases and a total of 11 screen protectors, 2 of which come with 2 of the 3 cases, the 8 are the same as the 2 but I had to get them to get free delivery and then an orzly which I got from ebay, the orzly was meant to arrive yesterday but hasn't. I'm hoping they've done a revision that's like the ezguardz so I don't have to spend more money

Worst of all is that my phone hasn't even arrived yet. ETA is end of December :'(
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
It's very difficult to photograph, but i did the best i could. The defect is on the inside of the glass so it feels fine swiping across it. Also, like i said, you can't even notice it with the screen on unless you really look for. I certainly have no plans on leaving it on long term, but it will be fine to hold me over until the replacement shows up.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] purpl3rain:
How or what method did you use to apply it? Looks like there's not much room for error looking at how much it covers. I also got the same one but have not applied it yet. I did a test fit and I felt like I won't get it right the first time.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
First let me say - i've probably installed hundreds of screen protectors (no joke - literally everyone i know that has a phone or tablet makes me do it for them - very annoying).

The method i use is pretty simple. I don't go nuts - and for the plastic ones i just clean the screen really well, take my time and lay it down carefully.

Since the TG only came with 1 sheet and i wanted to maximize the chance to succeed i did take a little extra care. I steamed up one of my bathrooms and then cleaned the screen really well. I turned off the shower and let the steam kind of fall towards the ground, which pulls most of the dust out of the air. I made sure my hands were clean and well dried. I attached two pieces of tape to each end of the screen protector to use as tabs. This allows you to have greater control. I lined it up and laid it down. Really nothing too special. I think having steady hands helps a lot. I'm fortunate to have those :)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] tbird302:
Ordered on fit looks really good
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Tsukasa Buddha:
Ugh, I received the Orzly glass today. I did the same thing with steamy bathroom, tape tabs, etc. But for the life of me I could not get it on right. There is zero room for error. Just a mm off and part of the display is exposed. After a number of attempts and finally getting it right there was debris on the adhesive side so I had to toss it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] purpl3rain:
I know the feeling. So well. So well.

:laugh:
[Nexus 6 Accessories] birnard:
Amazon will work with you on the shipping

I messaged the vendor on Amazon, and requested a cancelation on my order which was already shipped (from UK) and set to arrive in January. They refunded my purchase and then I reordered from the same listing now with prime shipping and it arrived today.

I'm happy I got it all installed and everything, but it is definitely a tight a fit for width. I have it slightly off center (don't notice unless i look for it) and can see about a column of pixels to the right of the display near the forward facing camera. I'm happy enough, but if they still send me that first order from UK even after the refund, then I might try again to install that one better using strips of tape as tabs as suggested above.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] davidtrs:
After I try my tempered glass protector on my phone I feel more thickness obviously and I don't like the sensation
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
I'm still going to give a try at putting a d brand skin over the Orzly screen protector when I get it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] xxprodigyxx11:
Waiting to try this Skinomi glass protector. Still has a couple weeks before it ships. But I like the cutout for the camera and sensor. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00Q3OXJKA/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1418339922&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SY200_QL40
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
That's sold by Prestige solutions. The one I ordered from xtremeguard had lots of negative feedback regarding halo ring & bubbles. Going to take another chance with them as the fit looks excellent. Not much different from the one I'm awaiting to apply as soon as my device arrives. If that doesn't work out I will order this one and see if it provides a much better fit. Thanks
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
XtremeGuard sent me out a redesigned replacement, tracking shows I should have it tomorrow. I will try to install it tomorrow night and get some pics up here.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] cwis:
I can attest to this. I recieved my first N6 with a scratch down the center. Google returned it gave me a new one. Also, I just ordered what I always put on my screens, an Armor Suit Military Shield spray-on protector. I love these things.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
It says in stock and available for Prime shipping right now for me

Edit.... Nevermind I see it says in stock december 23rd.... I wonder where the 2 reviews came from then?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I'm interested to see how it fits with the revision.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jhk0215:
Keep us updated! They sent me an updated version too but it will come in like 20 more days lol
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Well some good news! The new Orzly I bought from the US store today should be here tomorrow and this time has tracking info. Cost more but worth it at this point.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Parvinder25:
I got the orzly tsp today. I don't know if it's new or old model but it's the one that doesn't cover all corners. I applied it all well but at the bottom near speaker, it still doesn't stick well. Also since it doesn't cover the full screen, so the looks aren't that good. I personally didn't like it.

Disappointed after paying 16$
[Nexus 6 Accessories] purpl3rain:
Maddening. Return it!! And don't take no for an answer.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] kingston73:
I'd rather have it cover less and stick than cover the whole thing and not stick on the edges. I'm not really sure what people want and after reading this thread I don't know how anybody can be surprised by the results. It seems like most brands have been well represented and explained here.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
Not to be confrontational, but i'm pretty sure what people want is as much coverage as possible without any problems. I have yet to receive my orzly yet, but the one i showed from e-bay appears to be about 1mm wider on both sides of the screen area, so it seems orzly could have created a protector that was wider. I believe that is the complaint and it seems like a reasonable one, especially for those who paid 2-3 times the price for it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mrizvi66:
i'm looking exactly like what your describing i got mine yesterday with a free tpu case. looks like ass. both the bottom corners dont stick and neither do the edges.

this is going back to amazon.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

they should just make it so it covers the active screen part since that's the only part really that needs it.with the curved edges you can never get edge to edge coverage.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Parvinder25:
And since it is on exact lines of the screen, if you tilt your phone and try to see through sides of edges, you'll be able to see through the screen which makes the screen look naked.

Tsp manufacturers are just making these protectors just for sake of it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] woodensoul2k:
Do you have any sensor issues with this protector?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
no everything works correctly. The FF camera is fine too.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] woodensoul2k:
Thanks, I look forward to see if your replacement is defect free. I will also be interested to see what you think of the Orzly (I have one coming eventually). I have a bodyguards right now and can't stand it but it's temporary. Note to anyone about the bodyguards, they scratch easily. I keep mine in a leather case with a soft liner and it got scratched in a few spots.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] HankStorm:
Seems that the iLoome and possibly the one from OtterBox are the best hope once released.

I'm going under the assumption that iLoome will make one with the black ring around it to account for the curved glass. Assuming that pans out, does anyone with previous experience with iLoome's products think there would be any issue with using that type of screen protector and a case like the Diztronic at the same time?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jasonleb1:
Followed that ebay link for the EZGuard protector yesterday. Got a shipping notice this morning and it should be here early next week. Will update once it get it installed.
