Can u show a pic with the case on? Where does skin meet case? Or does the case go over top of the skin?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] bamfsig45:
These stop right before the curve in the screen. Does not touch the case.

I just got the spigen ones today and couldnt be happier. Went on easy an didnt even have to squeegee any bubbles out.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Pictures? Mine are coming tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] toyfreak:
I just got my Spigen CRYSTAL earlier today and the fit is perfect. Edges are just inside lip of Diztronic TPU case and the only cutouts along the top and bottom edges are for the ceramic bars at the top and bottom. Went on easily with no bubbles, practically disappears, and feels nice and slick.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
I got my SPIGEN crystal today as well. Unfortunately, the screen protector does not let the screen turn on during phone calls. Not sure what you other guys are experiencing. The fit of the plastic is fine and goes on just as well as their other products. I guess they just need to make a cutout for the proximity sensor.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] toyfreak:
I just tested mine and it works fine. I covered and uncovered the proximity sensor several times during a call and it worked reliably.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
Hmmm. Odd. Mine works fine without the protector and doesn't with it on. Maybe some proximity sensors are more sensitive than others?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] chris6278:
Mine works fine with the spigen ones as well
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Before you cut it look in the glass screen protector op. There is a way to get it to work without cutting s hole in the protector.

Also I'm updating the OP. I got my Spigen today and all I can say is buy it!!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] pcrussell50:
Can someone show me a link to a Spigen screen protector on both Amazon and Spigen's own web site. I find plenty of cases, but no screen protectors.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] y2jdmbfan:
DO NOT BUY THE iCAREZ PROTECTORS! They are absolute garbage, the cutouts aren't even close and the texture sucks on the front. If I didn't only pay $5 from Amazon, I would send them back...

[Nexus 6 Accessories] hlxanthus:
I still haven't decided which to get, so I left the factory screen film on. Honestly not horrible, just has that white corner haha.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
The spigen ones are really nice. They aren't too expensive for plastic ones either at 9.99$ with prime.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mb3030:
Just an update on my proximity sensor issue - it has a problem in low light, but works in a well lit room or outside. I'm waiting on TG so this will hold me over until then. Also my install is slightly off (maybe 1 mm down too much from the top, so this may be causing an issue as well).
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EvoKnvl:
I replaced my iSmooth with the Spigen. Fit and finish is awesome. No problems with proximity sensor.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] pcrussell50:
Nevermind
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Jeimygirl:
Spigen all the way. $10 for 3, I can't tell at all that I have a protector on (feels like glass) and I had one protector for my N5 for the year I used it and it protected my screen 100%.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 20degrees:
Guess you can send those extra n6 ones my way then. ?

N6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Jeimygirl:
Haha! Come on, $10 for 3 is great!

I have 1 left, have 2 N6's.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] TheDonXR:
Skinomi

Anyone try the skinomi? You have to use the fluid to apply but it may work out better if you dont use a case... Im trying to decide between those and the spigens.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Fadakar:
Yeah I got to check out my cousin's last night with it. It was from the first batch so the cutout was wrong, but he said the fixed one had already arrived at home, he just didn't have time to put it on before he left for Thanksgiving.

My thoughts were that it was thicker than I remember (long-time Skinomi user who switched to tempered glass and never looked back), very tacky feeling, but covered a lot of the face without issues. I'm sure their new cut outs are great and if you're fine with a plastic one, there's no reason no to get it.

One time I got a ****ty skin from them that started peeling 2 days in, no rounded edges on my HTC One either, so I didn't understand why. I contacted them and they got my a new one to me within 2 days! Turns out they also own Illumishield, and sent me a 3-pack of those, but those were thin, dry-install, PET protectors. I contacted them again and they sent a proper wet-install one. Told me to keep all the extras. Ended up loving the Illumishield protectors better due to thinness and how smooth the texture was.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
Just got my order from BestSkinsEver BOGO sale, and the case optimized screen protector is spot on. Small but perfectly lined up cutouts for camera and prox sensor, and the cuts are straight and not jagged/crooked like the XtremeGuard ones.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] unregistered825:
Just received my Spigen crystal screen protector. Unfortunately, there is no cutout for the proximity sensor which renders the phone inactive when making a phone call. I've already sent an email to Spigen customer service. I'm hoping they've addressed this issue as i love their products.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] indianajonze:
i just checked my nexus 5 and there's no cutout for it either. after using that phone and the spigen for a full year i can tell you there are zero issues with the proximity sensor. did you actually try it and found issues or are you just assuming there will be issues?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] oak:
I just installed Invisible Defender screen protector. It has a cutout for the front camera but not the proximity sensor. Proximity sensor seems to work fine though.

For those of you that still have the factory screen film on, the screen is MUCH nicer with it off! Color and sensitivity is much better without it. I can't believe I left it on the last two weeks.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] unregistered825:
The install went perfectly. When I made a phone call in in lit room, the phone screen went black immediately. There was no way to bring back screen functionality until the call ended.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I just applied these about an hour ago, so they are still drying, but I wanted to share a couple of pics.

These are the BestSkinsEver wet-apply screen protectors. I used the glossy one on the front, and I put the matte one on the back (more-so to hold the letters in from falling out like others have). It also came with the side pieces to apply, but I didn't put them on. They would have pulled off when I put the Spigen Neo Hybrid on the phone (because of the tight fit).
[Nexus 6 Accessories] dhruvmalik:
Thanks so much. I was wondering how BSE looks. COuld you post some more pics of the front and back?

I want to know if the BSE front has any hazing or orange peel effect.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I tried to take a few pics for you with my Nexus 5. (Sorry about the pocket lint all over the phone)

When the screen is off, there is a slight orange peel effect to it, I won't lie about that. But IMO, its the least I've seen than other competitors Ive used on my Nexus 5 protectors.

It looks crystal clear IRL, and when the screen is on, you wouldn't know a protector was on it.

The one I ordered is the case-optimized one, so it is cut a little shorter to make sure the case wont touch it and cause it to start peeling.

Overall, I am satisfied with the BestSkinsEver protectors.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EvoKnvl:
I have the Spigen on my N6, and I have absolutely no issues with the proximity sensor. I've heard someone mentioning a setting in the Accessibility Options. They enabled and disabled and it solved their problem. I believe it was Power button ends calls... Maybe give that a try...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] dhruvmalik:
Thank you for the pics. I am more interested in the back actually and how easy was it to cover the Motorola Dimple?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I already have the Neo Hybrid on the phone, and I apologize, but it is a real PITA to take it off and put it on. I can tell you this, though. The back was surprisingly easy to apply. The protector is obviously a flat sheet, but it easily conformed to the dimple. I think you can see in the previous photo of the back i posted, the back protector adhered flawlessly. The only thing was, I had to squeegee out the excess water (this is a wet apply) because water collected in the dimple lol took all of two seconds. I chose to order the matte material instead of the glossy for the back (didn't want a shiny back), so there is no orange peel effect on the back. Take a look at the attached photo, there is no water or air bubbles at all in the dimple.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 20degrees:
Hows the grip?

N6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Jake_dils:
Never knew these existed. How do they do against scratches, fingerprints? Better than those film protectors? I would have loved to see the installation!

Looks the same as xtremeguards.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jcarlm:
Extremeguard is a wet application to
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
Yes, but you don't get the spray solution with extremeguard. They just tell you to add some dishwashing liquid to a glass of water & dip your fingers in it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jcarlm:
I'm looking more so at the wet application one.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00OV..._1_3?colid=MBGR0ZV83NRS&coliid=I2ZEPW5ADPU80Z
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
Its the same product you posted before. Wet apply, same as extremeguard.

They feel quite rubbery on the screen & slightly soft & a bit grippy. Not slippery like glass. I had one on my n5 & even though it was fairly tough and scratch resistant, I couldn't wait to rip it off because of the rubbery feel.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jcarlm:
Them tell me one that will cover the whole screen and won't peel up easily?

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

My experience with wet application screen protectors have been with zagg hdx and I thought it was pretty good.

I had a mime tg as well and it felt awesome. But it collected a lot of dust on the end and it peeled up way to easy. I had the feather.

These were on my nexus 5.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
I've had the same nilkin tg on my n5 for about 8 months. Its got a few chips & cracks, but not really noticeable while using it. Never peeled or collected dust. The only cutout is for the speaker and I've had no problems with the ff camera or proxy sensor. Have loved it. About to buy another one to put on when I give my n5 to my wife. (If my *!?$@# n6 ever gets here.)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
Your in a plastic screen protector thread so this comment is worthless trolling. Why must there always be "that guy". There are obviously people who want plastic and people who want glass. Then there are always narrow minded who think if you don't like what they like it's garbage.

Back on topic, i had a glass protector, it hung over the curve edge of the glass, it was garbage (see what i did there?), so i bought a Spigen invisible crystal plastic. I do prefer glass but I'm willing to try something else.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
Haha, i think we see who got hurt. This is a forum, but one where people must be civilized and share constructive information. Your comments are neither of those. I have nothing more to say. You make yourself look foolish enough.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] feedtheducks:
I applied the skinomi screen protector today, will post pics tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] th3xeroeagle:
anyone got any matte ones from ebay that don't have crazy shipping charges to Canada?:)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Andre08:
That's what I'm using I like it so far
[Nexus 6 Accessories] wickets:
I used ringke invisible defender....dry application; seems to be as advertised and cutouts are where they are supposed to be
[Nexus 6 Accessories] feedtheducks:
Skinomi screen protector. Pics taken with N5 HDR+.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ViciousMo:
Ringke invisible defender scratches very easily, would not recommend.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] indianajonze:
not sure where you're getting that from. ive had mine for 2 weeks with zero scratches. and according to ringle, their protector is 3H/4H. which is stronger than spigen's 3H rating
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ViciousMo:
I'm getting it from owning the product. I didn't use the phone in an abnormal way. It was in my pocket with keys, maybe that was it. But, I've had plenty of other cheap plastic protectors on other phones that withstood that use.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] indianajonze:
wow that looks fantastic. was it hard to apply?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] feedtheducks:
Nope. Applied the screen protector, in the bathroom, after I took a hot shower. Took about a minute for the entire process. Perfect application.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] irock1985:
For anyone with proximity issues try restarting your phone... If that doesn't do it try going to settings , accessibility, power button ends call, toggle that on and off and see if it fixes your issues
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 20degrees:
Mine is scratched too. Been on the phone since the day after Thanksgiving with no keys or anything in pocket.

N6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ViciousMo:
Exactly! They won't be seeing my money again .

Anyone try this protector? I hear good things about it from other device owners.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jasonleb1:
Using the Spigen Ultra Clear or whatever. Very happy with it. I can't tell it's on there with a case on and no issues with the front facing camera or the proximity sensor.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] indianajonze:
well i finally got around to installing the spigen crystal. it fits dramatically better than the invisible defenders. actually goes edge to edge, perfect fit. we'll see how it holds up, but given my experience with them, it should outlast my use of the phone.

one thing to note, when i removed the invisible defender protector, i noticed several scratches as well. apologies to the poster earlier...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ViciousMo:
Edit: found the crystal on amazon, just has less than spectacular reviews.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] xxprodigyxx11:
Have you noticed any "orange peel" effects, or a rubbery texture?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] feedtheducks:
I have used skinomi on my GS2, N4, N5, and now the N6. The best wet apply screen protector, IMO. Orange peel is inevitable on wet apply, however, it develops months later. The feel very smooth, near glass like. Plus their customer service and lifetime warranty is the best. 1 call and they send a replacement screen protector right away. Never waited more than 2 days for a replacement to arrive either. I would recommend it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] xxprodigyxx11:
Just purchased one. Used a skinomi back in the day with my galaxy nexus. I'm probably going to get the skinomi glass one when it ships in a few weeks though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Crosserson:
Anyone have any more input on a good dry application screen protector? I have the invisible shield right now and love the feel of it, but like stated, they scratch very easily.

Would like to try Spigen, but the shipping costs to Canada is half the price of the product. Grrr....
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Well its probably not what you want to hear, but the Spigen is the best one so far in my opinion. I'm just glad that amazon has it with prime here in the US. Do they have it on their Canadian site?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Crosserson:
WOW!

It's funny I just checked Amazon after you posted this and they offer free shipping on orders over 25$. This was not the case last month. Needless to say I order a few packs.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
No problem, they have the most coverage as far as plastic dry protectors go. I'm happy with mine until a good TG comes out.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] adrman:
Another vote for the Skinomi here.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] cobyman7035:
factory stock still! i have it on for almost a month now! scared to take it off due to micro hairline scratches, but i think the color of the screen will vastly improve..i feel its too grainy resolution
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Crosserson:
You will notice a huge difference when u remove the factory skin. I did! Screen is gorgeous.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Just get some nice plastic screen protector which preferably is HD (meaning it doesn't distort the image at all and it's ~99.9% clear) and you will immediately see the difference.

Their wet install screen protectors always made the screen look bad in my opinion. Is this still the case?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] situman:
They have odd color specks as if the water never completely evaporates. Honestly, the Spigen Crystal and the Illumishield Clear is damn good. I have the illumishields on my NVidia shield tablet and I forget I have a screen protector on and that opened my eyes to that brand. Besides both are cheap and comes in packs of 3 and they stick well with no halo effects. Feels more like glass since its hard plastic. The Skinomi techskins and the armorsuits wet apply skins gets dented and its not as clear and scratches pretty easily too and no it does not heal itself despite what it claims. Go ahead run your fingernails gently across it and see the dents and see if it "heals." None of the so called healing ever happened to dents or scratches.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
That's what I figured. I don't like wet install skins for this reason and because the last time I used on was on my G Pad 8.3 which stopped working because some of the fluid mist of seeped into a gap. I've very very careful installed things and I was surprised that it broke but that's why I really don't like wet install protectors. It seems like they haven't fixed the distortion they cause either. It was probably my fault for having a drop get Into a gap (I don't know if it did but my screen flickered and then wouldn't turn on) but again it was a lesson learned and km glad I had a square trade warranty on my GPad.

Spigen Crystal films are still my favorite and the best ones I have used so far :)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] situman:
I think I'm going to just give up on using glass protectors if the second orzley I have coming in today doesn't work out well. Not worth the headache of purchasing, waiting for two weeks for amazon to ship it for free, doesn't work, pack it back up and ship it back out. Order the Spigen and Illumishield as well so just gonna be using those instead.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I have the Orzly but I won't use it because its so tiny that its worthless. It pretty much only covers the screen and nothing else which I don't like. I ordered another Jelly Comb which arrives tomorrow. I'll see how it fits this time around. I have a different phone because of a RMA so if may or may not work.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Gungrave223:
Umm lol im think im actually the option of this, I prefer wet applied screen protector because its easier to install.. If you need to adjust you don't have to take the entire thing off and hope you don't get your fingerprint or dust under it in the process, rather you can just slide it into place.

I just install a wet SP to my girls tablet the other day. at first she didn't like it because of the initial bubbles but not she loves it. No tinting or distortion either...maybe a crappy band? I personally like Skinomi.. best wet SP that I've used (although I will admit to not trying new things once I find something I like lol)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I'm used to installing TG so I've mastered installing non wet screen protectors. Plastic dry install SPs are even easier for me because you can bend them unlike TG. I'm not a fan of wet install for the reasons above, but everyone is different and if you like them then that's good. I prefer something that feels closer to glass and not a soft touch.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Gungrave223:
Lol I like wet cause I at dry... I usually don't jump on the TG bandwagon but decided to with the N6 I got the orzly originally and fell in love with the glass feel.. unfortunately the wide was crap....and even worst off...well you been on that TG thread so you know its not looking that great to get a TG that fix everyone screen really hit or miss.

But if you don't mind wet application SP I recommend the Skinomi... it's a little up there in price, but its worth it. I personally might pick up a one in a couple of weeks when I get back in town, maybe even the Spigen Crystal to see which one I like better, right after I give the Jelly Comb TG a try since it seems to the most hit for people. :fingers-crossed:

**Edit**

Turns out the price is not bad at all on amazon for the N6 lol
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Yeah it doesn't look good, but iLoome could fix that if they ever release theirs. I have a JC coming Saturday so I'll post over in the TG OP about if it actually fits. I have plenty of back up Spigen ones just in case.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] situman:
Illumishield sucks. Fingerprint magnet. Spigen awesome and crystal clear and feels like glass, 99%
[Nexus 6 Accessories] machNex:
My Ringke screen protector is scratched like crazy. I've been less than impressed with it. It collects fingerprints very easily as well. At least it came with the slim case for free...

The Spigen protectors are on Amazon Prime in Canada. $11.99 w/ 2 day shipping. Absolutely worth a try.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Crosserson:
The ringke screen protector is invisible defenders, which scratch easily.

I just put the SPIGEN protectors on and they are excellent.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
Spigen crystal is great. I prefer glass. In fact I told myself I would never use plastic again. However, none of the glass protectors for this phone look good. I would rather leave it naked than put one of the glass ones on and deal with that horrible looking halo effect. Long story short, I got this Spigen crystal and I'm quite happy with it. Clear, feels good, and fits good. If your going to go plastic, go with spigen crystal.

Edit: forgot to mention it's a dry application. Nice and stiff piece for being plastic. Goes on very similar as the glass ones.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] chrisjcks:
Spigen Crystal

Sorry for poor quality photos, used an old HTC ONE X.

Also, I 'had to' use flash as the screen protector couldn't be seen at all without it.

Full coverage, invisible to anyone using my phone who doesn't know it has one - highly recommend.

Sensor & front camera protected - No Issues with either.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mexiking713:
Very nice. If I can't find a decent tempered glass screen protector then I'll give this a try.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] vaxick:
I have the iLLumiShield on my Nexus 6 and I'm very happy with the way it turned out. No bubbles or anything. Nice and clear.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] pughie:
Spigen crystal on mine too, Im very pleased with it
[Nexus 6 Accessories] msd24200:
I received the invisible defender's 3 + 1 pack but haven't tried them yet as the EZgaudz tg isn't too terribly bad. It has caused some issues with the proximity sensor because that corner wouldn't stay down. They sent me a replacement that I haven't tried yet. Probably will just use the invisible defenders when I do take it off
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Karine:
What do you recommend using when you run out of the tabs that shipped with the Spigen Crystal?
