After my third go on the Incipio flex screen protector, after a month it is adhering well (my first two attempts peeled up on the edges within 72 hours) so the third time was a charm. There is an ever so slight halo at the top right that is less than 1mm along the edge and no more than a fingernail in width. It is so slight that it does not bother me. It is no where near the prominence of all the other protectors I have tried. I have it paired with the Incipio dual pro.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aznflawless:
Anyone have a picture of the Rhino screen protector? I just want to see or know if it screen protector has glass on surrounding the speak at the bottom, and top including the camera and sensors
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] richteralan:
Got a 22 cases glass protector off from Expansys. Fits perfectly with no halo. Unfortunately I grabbed the last one.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Greatness83:
I just recived the Sparin tempered glass. While it doesn't lift or have halo's but it doesn't fit on the screen correctly like its cut shirt on the side.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aybarrap1:
This is the norm for some of them. Due to the ever so slight curve of the screen, it is the only way many will get the screen to fit without the halo.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iks8:
has anyone glass that covers main proximity and light sensor? are there any troubles with that?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] acejavelin:
Tempered glass protector, properly installed, should have no appreciable effect on either sensor
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iks8:
well I wouldn't be that sure ;\ I already have glass that covers sensors on the bottom and they work fine but on my sister's phone even thin foil caused troubles with proximity sensor.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] acejavelin:
I have had tempered glass screen protectors on at least 7, maybe even 8 or 9, different devices... Never had an issue, but I'm not saying it's impossible. Now, traditional plastic screen protectors, well, that's a different story.

im using this.. it does not atttact so much finger print.. i like it.

New glass with video

I just installed my first and second ever tempered glass protectors today and so far no Halo. There is a tiny sliver that does not cover on edges but I here that is because of tapered edges so as not to get Halo

Here is link to them http://www.ebay.com/itm/262415524917

Here is a link to the video of the install. https://youtu.be/n73NsDHXyhI

And here is link to my screen replacement on this phone if you waited till it was too late to protect your phone

Nothing at all?!

So, let me get this straight: There are only three kinds of solid screen protectors for the Moto X Pure Edition - protectors that are smaller than the screen (worthless), protectors that are the right size and peel themselves up at the edges, and the ones that only have adhesive only at the edges (but crop the screen down, e.g. Transesca).

I guess the game has changed since I bought accessories for my Note2. Back then, it was just as easy as buying the first cheap TPU and tempered protector, knowing that both would fit perfectly and give the device enough grip under any and all usage scenarios.

In this way, the Pure Edition is a bit disappointing, but thankfully, technology has advanced to where these types of screen protectors aren't as necessary anymore (although I'd still like something that can compensate for the massive lip on the Cimo TPU casing).
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] aybarrap1:
You have to remember several factors are involved:

1. The Style/Pure has a screen that curves right at the edge of the viewable screen and with minimal bezels, it makes it more difficult to design a screen protector. Many prior phones, and even current ones had flat screens or the curve was far enough away from the viewable area to make glass screens easier to make. I don't count the Galaxy edge line from Samsung because the curvature is so dramatic that it allows glass protectors to almost line themselves up automatically leaving only the top and bottom alignments to worry about.

2. This was not a "big seller" like the Samsung, HTC, or LG flagship lines. It was never carrier branded so it was not well known (while researching a switch on US based carriers, numerous store reps from different carriers did not even know Motorola made this model. They kept telling me they did not know if it was compatible on their network). This equates to a less popular device in which many manufacturers just didn't want to do accessories for it (all about the money).
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] affiatic:
Yup it is what it is. For some reason Motorola doesn't get the love it deserves. Cutting edge technology. First dual core, first finger print scanner, chop chop,Moto mods, kick @$$ turbo charger, mid range priced phones that rival high end phones. Near pure Android. Oh and you can get them unmolested by carriers

Heck I listened to the owner of PC magazine blah blah blahing about how far gorilla glass has come when someone asked him if they made a phone with a tougher screen yet. Not a mention of the Droid turbo 2 or z force even though the guy asking was clear he used Verizon.

Not that Moto phones are perfect but in my opinion can't be beat bang for buck
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] mirrin:
2nd pleson chipped in the second month after install ordered IQ shield and BIUZKO glass shields to test

IQ solution to the halo issue was to narrow the protector it now just barely doesnt cover the full screen and still haloed... Biuzko haloed to the same spot at the iq but has more glass to actually cover the full screen...
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jal3223:
Has anyone been able to get one of these on without a halo?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] cyris69:
Got both mine in today. However, they are not like in the pictures were there are holes cutout and looks all fancy for new moto x. Plus they are obvious rebranded versions with identical packaging but neither are for teh 3rd gen. These are just the exact same design as the 2014 unfortunately. My phone isn't here says estimated the 15th but who actually know. Anyone else get these are see that they are different than the photos.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jal3223:
Has anyone tried a tempered glass on yet? I'm curious if the "halo" is going to be present this year.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Geordie Affy:
Same.

But my guess would be yes.

My tempered glass screen protector will be here tomorrow. I'll report back
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] robjbw:
Installed my tempered one. But bubbles on side. :( . Curve on the phone.... Same as my Moto X2nd.

Is the "Klear Cut KlearGlass - 9H Hardness Tempered Glass Screen" I bought from Amazon.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jonathanbailie:
Will be very interested to see how you like this one. It says it has rounded edges, and it's only .2mm thick 9H glass.

Let us know what you think, with pictures if it's not inconvenient for you. I'd specifically like to know how it feels on touch, and how the fitment is.

I normally don't use a screen protector or case at all, because of feel and fit, but if there's one that works well and eliminates my issues with them, I'd definitely consider buying.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] joshhud:
I installed mine and its pretty annoying bubbles on almost all edges especially at the bottom

supershilz halo

Supershildz -- I have installed mine last night , nice glass but pretty annoying halo, I think with this phone we have to stop dreaming about halo free glass and get on with it or just go with a wet apply screen protector :(
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] tvtt:
This is truly disappointing, I prefer glass screen protectors. I can't put mine on till my phone arrives on Wednesday. I finally got a shipping notice and my phone was only delayed by a day.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] chindynasty:
Sometimes, best solution is going to the mall for lifetime zagg installed. I am interested in the glass style protection with cover as well. But halo or bubble edge sucks
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jonathanbailie:
Does a wet application glass protector help with halos or bubbles? Is there much difference between a wet or dry applocation?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Oaklands:
I had zagg a long time ago. The surface didn't seem smooth enough for me. It felt like my finger would stick. They could be better now.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] joshhud:
I'm having a hard time finding wet applications.. Can anyone post a link
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
From what I was told on this thread was that the wet application is the NON-glass protector.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] joshhud:
Thanks for clarifying.. That's all I found as well
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] ShaunWinSC:
Just a FYI, Xtreme Guard will not be making tempered glass for the MXPE. :(
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Jkteam:
just ordered this one:

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B014JRVRII?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

phone is coming soon (hopefully since order on hold) so i just wanted to put something on it right away

also the cut seems nice and precise especially on the top where it goes around everything

eventually we might find the perfect screen protector no halo effect good protection overall)

i might also get this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Dmax-Motorola...sr=8-13&keywords=moto+x+pure+screen+protector

only one ewview but a new one from september so i guess its for the moto x pure and he says it fits well
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
I'm thinking about getting the supershieldz - http://amzn.to/1OaPLU1

No reviews yet for the Pure but for the other phones, its gotten great reviews.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] TrenchKato:
Those are not tempered glass.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Jkteam:
yup same here might take it too
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
Yes, I am aware. My reply was to Jkteam since he mentioned another screen protector. And reading all the complaints about the current tempered glass with the halo affect, it may be best to get screen protectors if you want immediate protection.

I've been using the normal screen protectors for years and never had a problem. I have a tempered on my wife and I don't see a need for it on any phones. But that is just me.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] brholt6:
Ah really? I always get theirs since its like $4 when they do a sale. I just got their dry HD protector (holds fingerprints like crazy, but works for temporary protection) in to hold me over until they had the Spartan ready.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Darnell_Chat_TN:
My MXPE came today and I put the Skinomi Tech Glass on it right away. I didn't like how it looked. The glass was hard to install, because it does not come close to covering the width or height of the device. I've used Skinomi Tech Glass on my M7 and with the M7, it covers basically the full width of the device. Which makes it much easier to install. But after getting the MXPE glass on, there were some areas under the glass where the adhesive had come off a little, from the need to reapply it. And since it does not cover things, it's really obvious to see the glass cover. I didn't like the look, although I tried briefly to enjoy it. I removed it. I'm just going to stay naked. I'll have to see if I can get a refund for the glass.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] pinoymutt:
Approximately how much gap was there on the sides when you put the Tech Glass on? I have one coming in the mail, and I'm debating whether or not to cancel and go back to traditional PET film. I really like the feeling of tempered glass though....
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] tvtt:
I just got my phone and put this protector on it: http://www.amazon.com/Klear-Cut-Kle...3&keywords=moto+x+pure+glass+screen+protector

It's not the best, but I'll use it till i find a better solution, I'm probably going to try and return my Skinomi one.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] spotmark:
Cancel your order, it sucks. I called Amazon, and told them how poorly designed it is, but it would probably cost me money to send it back. They very graciously told me to keep it, and they credited the purchase price back to me.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] pinoymutt:
I actually ordered directly from Skinomi and they said it was on backorder. When I emailed them yesterday to potentially cancel, they mentioned that their new test unit was due today and perhaps a new batch was ordered. I may give it a chance to see if they changed the design at all based on initial feedback.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] yung40oz84:

Has anyone found a good quality one yet?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] elitemeat:
Just received this one and applied it.

Supershieldz® Motorola Moto X Pure Edition Tempered Glass Screen Protector

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01313QHAY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00

I've done this before on other phones using tempered glass with no problem. The Supershieldz one seemed to be cut to fit well. The problem is that the edges don't stick properly. For mine it was very noticeable at the bottom of the phone (those two flaps flanking the bottom speaker). The protector doesn't stick well at those flaps and it looks sloppy. Gonna try to get a refund.

[X Style (Pure) Accessories] ShaunWinSC:
So what tempered glass is the best to get at this time?:confused:
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] spotmark:
At this point, it sounds like NONE of them.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] nowens0520:
Purchased these: http://www.amazon.com/iLLumiShield-Tempered-Glass-2-Pack-Anti-Fingerprint/dp/B013HAI9J8/ref=sr_1_24?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1442418226&sr=1-24&keywords=moto+x+pure

Same result as the rest of you guys. Halo is fairly minimal but no coverage at top surrounding the camera and flash. Bottom is bubbled out where the screen rounds out towards the back. I'll live with it for a little while and then see if I can get better results with the second screen protector.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] :
I'm a ways off from getting the one I ordered. (Arriving Tue, Oct 27 - Tue, Nov 10) I'll post a review once I get it. The tracking number give was from China Post.

That's kind of what I was gathering. What are you waiting to get down the road?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] spotmark:
No idea, just going to wait and see.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] th3taman:
That really sucks! :( I've been using them almost exclusively lately. Had one on my G3, Nexus 6, iPhone 6 and 5C, S6. Good prices if you wait for the coupons and excellent customer service. They replaced two or three for me at no cost.

Looks like a lot of the ones on Amazon aren't that great. For me adhesion and no rainbow effect is key....I'm wondering if some are not used to glass protectors when talking about not covering enough? They don't go to the edge always on newer devices especially with so many devices having minimal bezel. They have to find the right mix of going as far to the edges as possible without losing adhesion.

Might have to go without a glass screen protector since my G2...ugh.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Yea, I was thinking it would be a wash to even try returning it, given the shipping expense. I will contact Amazon and let them know my thoughts.

I have no idea approximately how off the size is. I just know I tried it, it looked terrible and I removed it.

I'm going to stay naked. I'll just pay the Moto Care $49 deductible if I break it. That's why I got the extended warranty coverage anyway.

---------- Post added at 10:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

And to return the Skinomi for refund, here's the math:

Not worth returning for refund. And if you choose to have UPS pick it up, instead of drop off. You get zero, since the cost to return is higher than the glass cost.

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ----------

I got on a call with Amazon support. And got the same deal as [MENTION=2371173]spotmark[/MENTION] . Refund with no return required. I just explained it didn't fit well and to return would not give me even $2 back.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] matsuyamakaze:
I agree to not using a screen protector. I use to purchase all the screen protectors until I got fed up buying them replacing them I never looked back. I say enjoy the phone the way it is. They spend all the time designing and developing gorilla glass millions of dollars and someone slaps a 5 dollar piece of glass or plastic on it come on...Also they design the phones body itself and someone slaps a huge ugly phone case on it. I admit case I can understand for on the go but the screen protector is a gimmic to make a ton of money. I ordered a expensive screen protector it arrived broke and the seller on amazon asked me to rate 5 and he's sorry. Why so you can fool more ppl. I say get insurance enjoy the phone the way it was ment to be enjoyed. I also like the skin you can put on the back of a phone like carbon fiber.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] MR.MEMORYLANE:
I installed mine and no halo (air bubble). I moved the halo all the way to the edge and lift it just enough for it to go away.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] :
Q
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] cyris69:
I've accepted the corners not fitting flush and some bubbles no matter how clean it was. Still can see teh screen just fine and no issue with touch so its still better than nothing.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
There's bubbles probably because of small particles/dust that are trapped. Take a small piece of tape and place it on a corner of the screen protector. This will act as a tab for you to life up the protector. Take another piece of tape that is longer and this will act as the "grabber". Lift up the screen protector just enough to slide the long tape in and start removing the particles. Keep doing this until you got everything.

This is my method and I do this to all my screen protector installs and they come out flawless.

Another install method for when you're first applying is to run hot water in the bathroom and let it steam up. Wait about 5 mins and than go in and install your screen protector. This is kind of like a clean room where there are no particles floating around.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jonathanbailie:
I haven't used a screen protector on my last two phones, the HTC One M8 and Nexus 5. Both have Gorilla Glass 3 like the Moto Pure and neither have significant scratches on them. They both look very good and you can only see very, very slight, small, hairline scratches if you look at it from the right angle under the right light. So, I'm not going to worry about it on this phone either. I agree that it's a very good looking phone with an amazing screen, so if you're a careful person with their devices, like I am, just go nude :good:
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
For those of us who resell their phones to recoup the cost of the new phone, these "very, very slight, small, hairline scratches" affect the resale value. Which is why we put screen protectors on our phones.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jonathanbailie:
Yeah, I know. I usually keep all my devices though, so I never have to really worry about those scratches. I was just referring to me personally, I just hate the look and feel of cases and screen protectors.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] cyris69:
Well, unless you can clean the silicon coating on the underside of the glass then i'm out of luck as tape alone didn't help. Plus the glass available is just low quality, not smooth at all. So the corners in the issue areas have lips of glass that shouldn't be there and overall thickness doesn't seem to be uniform on the two protectors I've gotten. I've been tempted to hit up the mall and go to the zagg kiosk and get a non-glass protector installed but I don't think there is an invisashield out for it yet.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] pinoymutt:
I just saw this today -- pretty expensive, but I'm wondering if it is different from regular tempered glass, because this one is supposed to be "flexible glass." Anyone wanna be a guinea pig? ;P

That one doesn't have the proper cutouts for the X Pure Edition.

---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 PM ----------

That looks 99% similar to the two 8$ ones I bought. Thin glass flexes, I can flex/bend mine a lot. It's the quality of the cuts plus uniform thickness you need to look for.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] joshhud:
Snap on placement bumper? I am interested to see what that is.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jal3223:
Do you have a link to the two thin glass flexes that you got? Does it still have halo?

I remember the Note 4 had the halo problem and it was solved with a super thin tempered glass from iloome and icarez. It still felt really good like glass but was as thin as a plastic protector. Personally I don't really care if the camera is covered or not, I'm just concerned with the screen.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] iazybandit:
iCarez has the standard screen protector for the Style/Pure - http://amzn.to/1FRK8m2

Hoping they have the tempered soon.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] pinoymutt:
I just emailed Incipio to ask a little more about the Plex (specifically about whether or not it's just their fancy name for tempered glass, or if it is different) and how it deals with curved screens.

iloome seems to have a similar product (although not yet for our phones), and at the bottom of this page has a comparison chart. They seem to carry 3 types - traditional PET film, tempered glass, and something they also call PLEX which seems to be a hybrid.

http://www.iloome.com/Galaxy-S5-Screen-Protector-Flexible/dp/B00IO5OBNU

(but I noticed that iloome only made tempered glass ones for both the Moto X 2nd gen and Nexus 6, so perhaps the curved screen caused some headaches?)

If the Incipio one is truly that hyrbid one (and it works better with curved screens) -- it may be worth the investment.

I'll see what they say....
