So received this full screen edge to edge glass protector today, it's "almost" perfect.

Pro

Very nice cut truly edge to edge

The home button and speaker cut out are aligned very well

Con

The silicone adhesive is not edge to edge but like the normal tempered glass protector (is this even consider haloing when the adhesive never at the edge in the first place? )

The oleo phobic coating feel less slippery and more draggy

Edit... maybe the coating need to break in, but seem to be more slippery today which i prefer

Overall I'm happy that this give me more screen coverage protection ill be using this instead of the nillkin h+ i had before. Combine with my tpu bumper frame, it gives full frontal protection with almost no noticeable gap. If you notice the adhesive edge being a little jagged i think that was from me lifting up the glass to get the dust

Do the folks who has the nillkin cp+ also notice the same adhesive issue? I'm wondering is that why the cp+ has color edges so the adhesive issue won't be visible?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
Anyone know of a good back tempered glass screen protector? A $2 one from eBay feels way too thick
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] gomek111222:
dont buy nillkin cp+ it cover proximity sensor and makes it useless. when u do phone call screen goes black immediately.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] zathus:
That's exactly why they color the edges. The issue I had with My nillkin was dirt getting in there. At least when it's not as good as the dirt has somewhere to go. Or you can wipe it off. But when he gets underneath there and just kind of stays and made me worry about scratches
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] cchant:
I just got two nillkin cp+. One in white for me and one in gold for my wife. My wife's went on without any issues. Everything lined up perfect. Even the proximity sensor works.

On mine, it does not work perfectly. There is some adhesive that won't stick to the screen and leaves a line across it. It also interferes with the proximity sensor as you say and basically makes it always active. I have set and reset it so many times and it looks absolutely perfect but it still interferes with the sensor. I emailed the eBay seller about it but I'm wondering if somehow the white color is causing the issue
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] gomek111222:
Nillkin made the sensor places transparent. But the proximity sensor doesn't work like this. if there is an object which is even transparent, the sensor recognizes it. Because of that the sensor hole must be empty. i dont understand why the other phone works witout any problem

Edit: i found the problem. you must be push screen protector to phone till there is no gap between phone and glass. Maybe this solves the problem but it is too late for me because i broke the screen protector.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] cchant:
My point was perhaps the holes for the sensors are slightly smaller than the sensors themselves and interferes with it. I don't know why it does on the white protector and not the gold. Both were installed the same way at the same time.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] gomek111222:
you may be right. because my protector was white too.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] tvoneicken:
Ah, I have the white nilliken and really like it, looks great. But I was wondering why the phone stays black when a phone call ends and I take it off my ear. Must be that the proximity sensor is not working properly. Thanks for describing the problem!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] cchant:
OK so that's three cases where the white Nillkin cp+ interferes with the proximity sensor.

I have tried a bunch of the different tempered glass screen protectors including Tech Armor Ballistic Glass, iAnder Tempered glass, UTLK tempered glass (Full Front), & Coolreall tempred glass (Full Front). With the Neo Hybrid case I use, the Full Front protectors are a no go because they are too thick. The best I have found is the iCarez 0.2mm flex glass screen protector. Its a lot thinner than most of the other tempered glass protectors and is hardly noticeable once installed compared to many of the others . http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VT8CP6Y?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00 No edge halo problem with this one, and the installation was very easy.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] DeathAngel66669:
I've used Zagg GLASS and Qmadix tempered glass screen protectors with no issues.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Greenv7:
Today which is the best tempered glass ZERO Halo?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] cchant:
Is the iCarez clear or matte?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Cameron_S:
It is clear.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mangust:
iCarez .2mm

I've had iCarez .2mm glass for several days now. My first experience with a glass protector and I like it. It's totally transparent in look and feel. It does not cover the entire screen so you can feel it if you place the finger at the top or bottom edge. In my opinion it looks right in place along with the Neo Hybrid or similar case. However, on phones with minimalist or no cases, the edges of protector will be immediately visible.

I had no problem instaling it, iCarez uses two big tabs on the protection cover which made application pretty easy. I had to reposition a couple of times but it didn't affect the adhesive.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
Anyone???
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] SRZ1977:
I can confirm as well that the iCarez works great with no halo's.

It works well with my Neo Hybrid case also.

The screen protector itself is crystal clear and very smooth to the touch.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Sophia Zhao:
I got Nillkin tempered glass when it's price off. It works very well, no bubbles, clear and look safe.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Huey85:
Really wish there was a way to order the icarez outside of amazon ...

tech armor ballistic glass has halo effect?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Doraemon02:
How did you choose the colour of the screen protector?

I'm thinking to buy one for myself, but I have the black galaxy s6 and I don't know how to choose the black protector (on eBay), if there is two types of course.

After this time what do you think of the screen protector? Good or not?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] bitslizer:
What do you mean choose the color? the screen protector itself is clear glass with no color?

I would not recommend this one going forward. As another user with Nilkin CP+ noted, the adhesive does not go to the edge and dirt and lints can get underneath the edge.

I also have a quarter inch pieces of the edge (the part without the silicone adhesive underneath) broke on me. The phone was not drop and i can only think it broke because I was wearing skinny jean the other day and it was too tight? lol
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Huey85:
Just installed the zagg glass and it is perfect. Obviously it doesnt go edge-to-edge but out of all the tempered glass SP's I've used, this covers the most of the screen than any others. Also, no gross looking halo effect on the edges or "rainbow" effect on the glass when looking from angles. Highly recommended! Just make sure u prep the screen well to rid it of all dust, grime, lint and oils. After that, alignment was easy and installation was quick.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] tangiers:
Like others have said, my Nilkin full screen has no halo. I can't discern any lift on the sides at the top or bottom where lint could get in. I was worried that there was some small spidering when I first put it on but it disappeared after a few hours. Really happy with it.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Kensairabbit37:
I haven't had great luck with my installs of any brand. Every one ends up having the edges lifting/bubbling.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] openwheelracing:
iCarez 0.2 thin temper glass works perfectly for me. It almost feels like regular plastic protector but it is supposed to be glass.

I got some brand "yooloo" or something like that and it is way too narrow so I returned that immediately via Amazon prime.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
My Nillkin tempered glass screen protector is too scratched up after 4 months. I'm disappointed in the quality of the protector as well, it gives off the rainbow effect.

Any suggestions for a new one that is preferably more scratch resistant and higher quality? Best Buy has the Zagg invisible shield glass for $25 on sale right now but I'm sure I can get good ones for cheaper
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Rakcoon:
If you're in US, give iLoome a try. I've used their flex screen for iphoene, galaxy s4, ipad air and ipad mink. Very thin 0.15mm, with same 9H hardness. Their customer service is exemplary, and price is cheaper than competitors.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] bitslizer:
Phantom glass market themselves as using genuine gorilla glass. They are pricey though and i have not try them myself

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] frezd91:
Lately I noticed a lot of vendors are switching from real glass to a sort of plexiglass. Now I'm using a Mediadevil "tempered glass" screen protector and it's plastic. It's ok because it's clear, but on my S5 I have the same protector and it is made of real glass. The feeling is totally different.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Rakcoon:
I have phantom glass for my ipad mini 2. I've used it for 1yr and a half and it has no scratches. Very smooth and I like it. However, it is on the expensive side, and availability is scarce.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Huey85:
phantom glass has halo issues. I received a sample from them for my birthday and had major halo'ing issues.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Rakcoon:
Good to know. My experience with phantom glass was limited to ipad.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] akg7091:
Whatever you do don't order one from xtremeguard.com

The coverage is horrible and has more than 2mm gaps on all sides.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Huey85:
Yep. I have a Phantom Glass on my Surface Pro 3 and it's superb (although coverage could have been extended out a few further mm's). The Phantom Glass on the S6 on the other hand, not so good. They obviously had troubles catering for the curved edges of the screen.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
Bought the Nillkin, and I couldn't be happier. Truly covers edge to edge, covers the sammy branding, and feels smooth as a baby's bottom!

Nillkin 9H Full Body Tempered Glass Screen Protector Film For Samsung Galaxy S6
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jennifafa:
Agreed. I tried those ones back in the days and are horrible.. Been doing lots of research, and I am using Jedi Shield now because of the discounts =P. Works perfectly fine for me.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
How does it cover edge to edge if the front of the S6 is slightly curved at the sides? This is why most stop at the edge of the screen rather the edge of the front.

Also do you use a case with it? That comes up and lips onto the front slightly?

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] bitslizer:
That is why it's got the color edge because the adhesive does not go all the way to the edge, without the color edge you would see haloing, also since adhesive doesn't goto the edge dirt would collect under the edge after a week or two
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
Ah ok... but with a case that lips over the front slightly it would cover it a bit and avoid dust and grit getting in there at least mostly wouldn't it?

Isn't this a good screen protector?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
This thing is fantastic. Check out my post about the sad little camera protector I bought for pics. I use the Ringke case and it looks great imo.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62987496&postcount=20

Weeks into it, and no dust. I'm pretty sure mine has adhesive all the way to the edge. It pulled like it did when I removed the backing. I liked it (and still do) enough to buy another as a backup.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
Do you have any pics of the screen protector?

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
Ah! Sorry. I thought I flipped it in the pics for use in the case thread. I'll get pics and put them up!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
Cool thanks [emoji3]
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
Here's a couple. Let me know if you want a different angle.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] bitslizer:
Look at post 281 for a clear(no colored edge) version to see what i was talking about regarding the adhesive
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
Thanks looks good. Is it the light or is it chipped at the edge?

My case tech 21 is my thicker and comes round the front more than yours so not sure if that would cause me any issues with it?

I'm using one of the usual glass screen protectors that doesn't go edge to edge as you will see... but hasn't gone on right so want to change it...

Any chance of a pic of the edge of yours without the case on?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
That's just light reflecting. I'll see if I can steal my wife's s4 to take a pic or two without the case...
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] simonprr:
Ah ok thanks. Do you think I may have an issue with my case?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
From what I understand, yes. I think this screen protector is best used with a case that has no wraparound, or no case at all.

Sorry I haven't seen the wife and wont for a couple days (opposite schedule.)
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] pettepark13:
I found a cheap tempered glass from Jedi Shield.com . Have been using it for some time, great coverage and durable.

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
Does anyone know what the blue light, UV protection stuff is about?

I went to Best Buy to get a zagg invisibleshield hd glass protector, but they only had the blue light guard version. It was more expensive ($25 vs $40) but they offered me to give it to me at $25 since I reserved it online. I decided not to buy because I'm not sure about the display quality with the blue light protection. Does it ruin display quality at all?

And between Tech Armor and JETech, which is better?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] csjg3525:
I have had 2 Zagg InvisibleShield Glass, I don't reccomend them. They are durable, saved the screen after dropping it on rocks. But, they do not seal around the edges, or cover the whole screen to the edges.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
I don't need edge protection. How's the quality of it? Did it scratch a lot?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] csjg3525:
It is pretty much scratch resistant. I work heavy construction and dropped it out of my pocket many times and flat on the screen a few. It did end up with a few minor chips after it landed face down on large gravel. What I mean by not sealing around the edges, is there are gaps around it where it don't seal to the screen itself.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] iamhacked:
Oh so it doesn't cover the whole screen? Regarding scratch resistance, do you see any hairline scratches when you shine it in sunlight or something?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ElBeaner:
I bought this when I first got my phone on 9/26 (well it arrived the Tuesday after).

On 10/7/15 it chipped and cracked. No replacement warranty or anything.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012KEEZO0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00

Replaced it with this

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WQFPS8G?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

This one has a replacement warrant so we'll see how it holds up

I will say the second one feels better and fits the home button and camera better(first one actually had glass over the front camera).
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] RobbieTr:
anyone who can give me some good advice?

I'm looking for a tempered glass screenprotector which covers from edge to edge and still displays the samsung brand.

I like the nillkin, but it is without a Samsung logo on it.

Anyone who knows such protector?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] trekage:
I actually bought one that had the Samsung logo still on it from Skinomi. They have it both in black and white but no gold sadly. I posted some photos and a little review on it here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63149238&postcount=130 , the link to buy the product is also available there. The only downside was that it became much harder to view the display in direct sunlight and I needed to really boost up my display brightness in order to properly use it.

Any suggestions for a tempered glass protector that does not have the halo thingie but can be found on Ebay and shipped from either Europe or HK/CN? I cannot justify paying $20 to ship something from the US and wait a month or so. Is Nillkin any good? I had it on my Mate7 and it had no halo or anything similiar but I read a couple times that on the S6 quite a couple protectors do have that. A friend gave me a chinese one that was like $1 and it has the halo and its pretty annoying. I'd be fine with upto $15 with shipping.

I put the protector with extreme precision, but the result....isn't the best.

If money is not a issue then get phantom glass protector it is good I don't know about the halo effect as my cousin uses it but it cost him $30 but i have seen him drop that phone multiple times from various heights with screen down and it still has no cracks on it the only thing is that he also uses a phone cover with it so if you are looking for coverage on both sides that won't be possible

Great find [MENTION=1982944]zathus[/MENTION] and as for the other guys it kinda worries me that you guys would choose a half a%& glass screen protector that doesn't protect under the home button which is still glass, instead of a full protective glass that actually DOES cover under the home button, I just don't get it, it makes no sense....

Left : nillkin, gap on the bottom, Right: iVolar, no gap...

Idk maybe im crazy but I honestly just don't see what the rest see, like I wanna get the glass with the most coverage, it doesn't make sense to get the glass with a gap...

Waiting for XtremeGuard to have their sales with their Spartan glass. Using it on my Nexus 5 and has protected my actual glass from damage after a face down drop.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Slicktune:
Nexus had no home button so the whole glass could be covered, do u know if Xtreme guard is gonna have that ugly gap on the bottom??
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] xdviper:
Hopefully not, but they go through revisions and may possibly have one without the gap on the bottom. Need the whole glass covered myself also. Just have to wait it out.

First revision of their Nexus 5 glass didn't have any holes for the proximity and the front camera. Their second revision started to have them. They may change suppliers and depends on their suppliers at the moment.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] dustinb17:
The glass screen protector most likely won't go edge-to-edge do to the rounded edges against the metal. You'll see them cut a little smaller than the screen itself like on the Note 4 and iPhone 6.

There may not be a big enough gap in between the home button and the edge to allow enough contact.

I'm sure there will be a flood of reviews to discover all these nuances and probably several revisions. I would still say when you're paying less than 10 bucks it's worth it to have it protected on day 1. Once there are more options and real world reviews you can make a better decision if you need too.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] km8j:
Bunch of them on amazon for $3-$4. Crazy price. The question is if they are really necessary given Gorilla glass 4
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] jzero88:
You probably won't find a glass protector that covers the bottom part. Cutting a hole in glass is very difficult.

Not sure how not covering that very small bottom section is half @$$ but not covering that little section probably doesn't matter since 95% of the rest of the screen is protected. In a perfect world manufacturer would make removable/replaceable screens, BUT since they don't we live with what we have at our disposal.

I paid $4 for one and that had no reviews, none do, but since I want it protected since day 1, it's a small price to pay to have it on until more reviews come out on other/better screens.

Just my opinion
