I bought the tempered glass screen protector from the following ebay link. Used it for 2 days and the seller promised me the refund. Along with this I tried many other tempered glass screen protectors from ebay and amazon (with promo codes) and following are my reviews which apply to all of them:

1. Even though they call them tempered glass, those are not really made of glass elements, rather these are made of hard plastic.

2. These have glue only on the edges and these will come off pretty easily. Also, there were gap between screen and the protector which makes it annoying to type/touch experience. That awkward sound and the poor responsiveness.

3. It looked okay with the above limitations for a day and then it makes it impossible to use.

4. The real problem comes if you keep these screenguards for more than a day. Tiny dust enters inside the screen protectors and stays in between the screen protector and the glass. The hard you press while typing, the more will be the damage to your screen. My screen had tiny wipable scratches most of the time and finally with my latest experience, got a permanent mark on my screen.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/20163722764...49&var=500890774340&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

What I learnt with these expeiences:

1. There can not be a perfect tempered glass screen protector for this phone if you want it to be edge to edge. If the protector is made of real glass, it wont allow you to bend in order to place the screen protector in right place. Samsung is the one to blame, because if you observe the edges, the edges are curved further backwards, which makes it impossible to have a real tempered glass on this phone.

2. Do not have false hopes and try not to scratch the precious screen on the phone. Yes, the screen definitely need a protector (even the dust particles can create scratches on this glass) and it need not be tempered glass. I ordered a very good normal clear screenguard from Amazon and ordered carefully. Never buy a screen protector which has awesome reviews, if the reviews were in exchange for a honest opinion (corruption). Instead I went for a screen protector which has amazing reviews, but nothing from a discounted purchase. The reviewers need to disclose that they received the protector in exchange for honest opinion as per the law, so read the reviews. The one I bought is from the following link, if anyone wants to give a try:

I bought the same but haven't received it. How did it work for you? Is it worth it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Cashreedhar:
Yes, it is definitely worth and its going to stay forever on my phone :). I used skinomi screen protectors before (where you need to spray the liquid all over before applying and wait for a day to get it fixed) and I was not really happy (- but it is my next choice if you can't get this one), because for a normal sunlight, the screen protector got burns. Out of all of them I used, this is the best!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] kwanbis:
Great. I would update my experience once received.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] fredriks:
Today I received a tapered glass from eBay. Chap this to, doesn't attach well anywhere really. Will probably pop of any time soon. I'm so tired of this tempered glass. Right now I'm thinking of going naked but i work in an environment thats risky to get particals on the display and then got scratches and I don't won't that

Are you using it with a case? If so, how well does it work? 8 had a Zagg screen protector, let it dry for a day on my phone, and within minutes of installing my Spigen case, it started lifting on the corners.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
So guys,

I bought a clear TGSP on ebay from the same seller I bought from the link I posted. Adhesive is only on the edges, and the price was 5.99. Now it's two packs for 2.99. Honestly, sensitivity isn't bad. Will it last long? Not sure, but I'll post the link for ya'll in case.

And honestly, for those of you who bought the Amazing Things for that rip off price, I think this is the same thing.

---------- Post added at 12:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 AM ----------

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/131951655305

---------- Post added at 12:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------

Also, since I think this uses the silicone adhesive as well, DO NOT USE HEAT on the corners.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] dogredwing1:
Can anyone recommend a glass protector for my s7 edge that doesn't completely wreck the screen responsive?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
Taken with my wife's Note edge. It has some rainbow slick and it's probably because I didn't completely wipe the alcohol well enough. Sensitivity isn't really and issue, if an issue at all. Adhesive is only on the edges.

Also, here's a tip and maybe this isn't applicable to everyone. When using a TGSP, I think it is very important to let the adhesive settle, AND, if you're going to use a case, use the Spigen or Ringke Thin fit (they're probably manufactured by the same people, just branded differently). In my opinion, even the Samsung Clear case can interfere with how the TGSP sets, whereas the Thin fit cases just wraps around the phone without disturbing the glass protector.

If you want this one that I'm sporting, I posted the link on my last post.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ToneyEricsson:
The best is the Otterbox Defender case, it fully encapsulates the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and zero lifting :cool:

Just saw this today
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] GoBears:
I'm using the Otterbox Alpha Glass with a Spigen Tough Armor case. I'm pretty happy with the combo so far. The phone feels pretty protected with not much added bulk.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
Does dust get in between?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] GoBears:
It hasn't yet. It definitely has negatively affected the touch sensitivity, but if you want to use a case this protector works well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
I have been using. the Otterbox Alpha glass and as I earlier promised a short review.

The glass was very easy to install and it fitted with all my cases such as Spigen Neo hybrid, speck candyshell, UAG and so on. The touch responsiveness was not perfect but up 90% perfect and it was clear enough for me even if there was some matrix in it.

Unfortunately the glass loved smudges but it was not a big problem for me since the glass worked well with all the cases and touch responsiveness was okay. Moreover it did collect dust in between, mostly at the edges and some all the way into the middle! I took it off couple of time to clean it and it felt like adhesive didn't like it too much.

I did not try to smash or crack it but it somehow, unfortunately cracked at upper right corner when the mobile was in my chest pocket during work. I didn't bang against anything that I am aware of but it might be a slight pressure leaning over something.

Anyway, Alpha is the best glass so far that I have used according to case usage and sensitivity issues for me. The worst was all that damn dust getting in between. But will I buy another one? Not going to happen with that superpremium price!

Sensitivity issues? I would say barely or NONE, I am serious.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] GoBears:
Update: After a week or so of usage, I'm not really pleased with this product. I have now started to get some dust under the edges and even a fine hair. At least I was able to slide a corner of paper under it and remove the hair. The touch sensitivity for me is unacceptable and even frustrating at times. The glittery matrix effect is also very annoying. On a positive note it does work with every case I've tried and seems to offer adequate protection. I'll be leaving it on until the dust gets on my last nerve. Once I remove it, I will not be putting it back on. My hunt continues...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
A huge downfall of using a TGSP, is that dirt can get in. I think the best film I've used was the Armorsuit case friendly. It's just tempting to have a glass protector on the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] radtech777:
After fail after fail, I am officially done with the glass protectors. My last one lasted a solid month, but I hate that I could not use it with anything but a slim fit case. And I never liked the feel of the film protectors. So I have tried something different. I am currently using a liquid screen protector, this one :

Hi-Tech NANO Liquid Screen Protector.

You can find your own videos about it. Let me just say, it feels amazing, it's is 100% clear, and that is important to note, because I never realized how poor the screen quality was with the glass on it. The screen absolutely pops. Read up on it and see what you think. Anyone else tried this stuff?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Xophile:
Do you have an URL for the NANO protector?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Cashreedhar:
I have been using this protector for more than a week now. I am very happy with the purchase. No rainbow, bubbles, etc. I use it with a hard case and the edges are not peeling off. The screen protector is made with attention to details, it leaves a very narrow edge uncovered (not noticeable unless you stare and search for it), which helps from covers screwing the screen protector. I have used many other similar application screen protectors (let it dry for few hours kind), but this one turned to be totally different. It has some tough glue, I had hard time seperating it from the original wax paper it came with.

---------- Post added at 12:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

I suggest you should remove this screen protector asap. if the touch response is 90% that means, there will be gap between the screen and the protectorr. Dust particles enter in between somehow and the beautiful glass will be scratched. I hate those screen protectors how they scratched the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
It's taken off as when it cracked. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
Film is the best way to go. Keep getting dust in these Glass protectors!

They have it on Amazon, which is where I got it, for 3 bucks more, but since I bought it, I can't post the link because it gives you my personal info lol.

As an added bonus, it's even more oleophobic than the original glass. I can barely leave a fingerprint on this. So far, I'm pretty pissed that I spent so much money on glass.

If you got that 4 pk from Amazon, please note that it does not come with the microfiber cloth. That is the only reason I did not but that brand.

This is basically after 10 days of normal in and out of pocket, to and from work, 80 miles round trip, going shopping and running errands. There wasn't a scratch to it. There are 2 guys at work (Apple, ha-ha), who also have S7 Edges, and saw it first day, and were shocked how clean it looked, and saw it again yesterday after roughly a week and were just speechless. I have placed it face down at work, first week with a standard Samsung cover, and the last 2 days with a Ringke cover, and no problems. I got a second solution today, and did 3 cameras, re-applied to the front, and for the heck of it, did the back as well since it's also 'glass'. I can honestly say as of now, well worth it. I went through 5 Pure-Gears, 3 just applying them, 2 that pealed off in a day, and 4 Zagg HD Drys that basically just left imprints in the screen from day one.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] arvylas:
[MENTION=6746880]chernabog88008[/MENTION] did you apply it to the back camera also?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chernabog88008:
I did, buffed it out as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] arvylas:
I wasn't sure about the back camera. Extra protective coat is nice but on the other hand I'm worried about proper focusing and light reflectivity/ transmittance .
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chernabog88008:
You end up covering the front camera right off the bat, and I didn't see any issue with it in a couple of selfies.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Cashreedhar:
It is the same like the one I got (I believe) - spraying solution all over the screen protector and apply. It is definitely more oleophobic than glass and there wont be any fingerprint left. Also, the screen protector has the self healing technology if it gets any scratches.

I used similar screen protectors from different companies like skinomi, etc but this has been the best. couple of them were exactly similar, but no match to this quality. It sticks tight to the screen, edges don't peel off (they have left a very narrow edge uncovered for cases) and this is the best I ever owned. I ordered 4 more for future, if they stop producing this :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
Took the TGSP off and back to using Armorsuit case friendly film again
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] redlikemethodz:
I'm really liking the Armorsuit protector. Check out my review: youtube.com/watch?v=yQNDdnkerBg
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] itsadam:
My brand new s7 edge I nudged it off the GearVR box a few days after getting it to pick it up from the side of the bed to turn the alarm off the phone shop and Samsung refuse to do anything about it.

After having a Note 2 for nearly 4 years without a screen protector on it and not even a single mark on it, I've come to one conclusion. I'm never buying a Samsung again. The note 7 horror stories are enough to cement that further.

My s7 edge did actually have a screen protector on it, but didn't cover the edge part, however since the screen crack happened in the middle of the screen it was *protected*.

Meanwhile my note 2 has flown across floors, tumbled out of my car on to concrete and all sorts.

So much for being an upgraded version of gorilla glass. I contacted Samsung support originally and said it cracked taking it out of the gear VR they didn't care, contacted on Facebook with the real story never got a reply, followed up and was told they could repair it for a price.

Useless phone not fit for purpose, Samsung quality control is worse than half the tat from alibaba.

Conclusion

Spend that 40-60 quid on phone insurance instead of a protector and use it how it's designed to be used , because a protector won't make any difference.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chernabog88008:
Don't deal with the hoseheads at the 800 number. I had mine take a nose dive from the vertical charger off the desk and into a bedrail and cracked it right at the charging port. The glass was fine, but it was only 3 weeks old and I was less than amused. I called the 800 number and straight cussed out the first person who answered the phone, and was then told by 3 other people to pay $70 to just look at it. I left a voicemail Monday with their corporate office, got no reply, called back Wednesday, and got someone who helped. They were going to 'repair' the phone, and didn't have parts, so I ended up getting a brand new phone. Their customer service is horrible, but you should try the corporate number if they have one in the UK. Emailing them at the President's office is a total waste of time as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] itsadam:
That's a nice thought, but like I said tried Facebook and phone, even started posting trash on their Facebook post, they just deleted it.

I could 5ry the corporate number. I have 2 Samsung TVs, 3 Samsung HDD 2 of which are SSD, Samsung phones for 7 years same for my fiance because I always buy her a Samsung and also got the immediately family from iPhone to Samsung. I even explained this to them and said I'm looking at buying a Samsung washing machine and they just didn't give 2 craps, so I didn't buy their brand or washing machine in the end and I won't be buying anything of theirs again purely down to their customer service. Oh I have a Samsung microwave too haha! Two loyal customers lost at least!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] chernabog88008:
I had an NVMe 951 drive that crashed in 6 months, they actually deleted the repair request. I did go back to the vendor, they refunded the money, turned around, got a 961 NVMe that just tears it up. I've got a 28" UHD monitor, 3 wireless chargers, one I gutted and put inside my dash for my phone, they honestly don't care. They're up to their eyeballs in problems with the Note 7, so they have other pressing matters. If you can afford it, or use VOIp, call the number in New Jersey. 201-229-4000, if I remember correctly, you have to use 0 to get an operator, tell them you want the irate customer department, they'll ask if it's a Note 7 or something else, tell them it's an Edge 7, and they'll get you to consumer relations. As for Facebook, EA did that last year to us about Star Wars Battlefront, just deleted post after post slamming the game. I can see deleting posts for profanity or what not, I get tired of seeing southern inbred rednecks doing that on US Women's National Team player sites or just sports teams in general, but deleting stuff because you're too lazy to reply and fix a problem is just childish.

Is it just me, or does a tgsp totally destroy outdoor visibility? I was using it today on the bus in bright sunlight and all I could see what the reflection of my face. Is this normal? I only had the phone for a day before putting the screen protector on so it's possible I didn't notice.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] skylirizm:
When I got my S7 Edge, I ordered a "REAL TEMPERED GLASS FULL COVERAGE" Screen Protector.

Yeah the box it came in was low quality and the "Tempered glass" was flimsy plastic.

And it used tape adhesive to apply. When it was on my phone, the edge features didn't work and you had to press a bit harder for touch to work.

I should've been a little smarter - I only paid $12AUD for it.

Since then, just got a normal film protector. It's a hard phone to have a screen protector fit great on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] masterhacki:
Well mine felt down from my car seat into the car just about 20cm, and the whole display was cracked....

I went to Samsung Service Station and they repaired my phone, the next day i could pick it up. That was kinda nice but i had to pay 350€ for it. :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] itsadam:
You see I don't think that's right at all it's not fit for purpose. It's a mobile it should be made to be dropped and atleast survive little drops.

My note 2 went flying all over the car popping our of the windscreen holder, its been dropping, skimmed, stood on, all sorts and not a peep. How does a newer phone with a better version of gorilla glass because so much more fragile.

It's disgusting,and it's the last Samsung to enter my home for me or my fiance 100%.

To be fair I was expecting a lot more stock functions from the edge, but it seems you have to shell out for 3rd party apps. A gimmick is all the edge is best used as. The only reason I got the edge was screen size.

---------- Post added at 10:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

There's a thing in the UK called sales of goods act, if you and many others belive that an item should last x amount of time or withstand a small drop, then it's deemed not fit for use. Just saying :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
I think so. I have a garbage clear TGSP, and you have to remember the quality of the glass is different than the S7's. I am thinking of getting a Note 4. If the Note 5 had external storage, I'd probably consider it. I think Samsung should consider going back with a more leveled screen. It would make having a TGSP easier on the phone. If the Note 4 had the S7 Egde's Camera and Fingerprint capabilities, I would probably make it my daily driver. But hoping to maybe get a great condition back Note 4.

Can I re-seat my gpel 2 TGSP after a couple days of it being in place? I've have my gpel 2 protector on for a couple days already and used a blow dryer when I was applying it to get a better seal. But I'm not happy with the touch sensitivity so I was wondering if it was possible to re-seat the screen protector now. Has anyone done this without issue? I realize I'd have to be very careful about not getting dust underneath, but I'm just wondering if the adhesive will hold again? Are there are tricks to getting the best placement for screen sensitivity, or is it all just luck?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
I think I'm pretty much done with glass. Dirt eventually gets underneath, unless you use a holster like someone did. I'm sticking to my case friendly Armorsuit film from now on.
