[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
I just wanted to leave a quick review on three types of protectors I've tried on my S7 so far.

Two things I did before installing, which I very much recommend to anyone is get this app which will allow you to set the lighting for the backlit keys to a custom time limit. I set mine to always on for my install. The second was I just had this image open in the gallery on fullscreen viewing mode, at full brightness. These two will help with aligning any screen protectors with cutouts for the backlit keys, and help you catch any dust on the screen.

The first being the standard plastic cover that comes with most Otterbox cases.

I've always loved otterbox cases as they typically are a fortress of a case for your phone. I ended up returning it due to the material not getting along well with my pockets. *the case got stuck easily, pulling my pocket inside out.* I don't have any pictures of it, but overall it worked well enough until I could get a better option. Since it was directly against the glass, there were no issues with registering inputs from my fingers, which was helpful since we often just check notifications with a quick swipe down from the top, or pay with Samsung Pay with a quick swipe up. It wasn't the greatest quality, and actually started coming off quite easily after a few days. One part gave up completely and lifted up when I was using my Gear VR, and the little clip that holds the phone in place ended up pushing, and lifting the protector back. If you're looking for something temporary to avoid micro, or pocket scratches then it'll do. If you want something that won't lift when sliding it into your pocket after less than a week, don't bother.

The second protector I got was the Jetech full screen protector from Amazon.

Here's what was included with the Jetech. Sorry the actual screen isn't there, I just took the picture after installing.

First off, the only real helpful thing that they included was the small, adhesive application tabs. You can apply them anywhere to the screen, and it was used to help you align in to the perfect spot. That's really it when it comes to useful items included. The cleaning cloth was leaving lint behind like no other. With every wipe of the cloth, there was more dust left behind on the screen, making it more tedious than useful as an accessory to help, since it made everything much worse. There was no alcohol cleaning wipe provided either. Call me spoiled, but I'm kind of used to such luxuries to remove, and keep dust off my screen when installing a glass protector. The provided sticky, blue dust removal film was also pretty flimsy, so you can add that to the low quality of materials that are included from Jetech. Overall, once I ditched the provided cloth, and switched to using the cleaning pad that came with my sunglasses, everything was much easier. I was able to get the screen as dust free as possible, and using the light from my girlfriends Turbo 2 I was ready to get the screen out of the box, and ready for install.

The glass has two cutouts for the home button and speaker. The camera, sensors and Samsung logo were covered by the glass, but were not painted. From my experience, the front facing camera had no ill effect from being covered as the glass is quite clear, leaving no unsightly tint in any photos taken. The installation instructions were not included in the box. At least they were not in mine, but if you have general experience with case protectors, then you can figure out how to put it on. If you don't, luckily we have a very helpful community who don't mind offering advice.

For me personally, it was a little tricky to place it down just right since I didn't exactly think things through, and just went blind. The lit buttons kept going out within two seconds, so it was hard for me to get a good placement, and I was trying to use a light to make sure, that somehow, no dust got under while installing the glass. I was able to get it on within a minute or two of trying, with about 6-8 attempts. If you miss the sweet spot, luckily the glass is pretty easy to lift off so you can try again, just carefully use your nails to lift a corner and go from there while holding from the side.

Once I had it on, I pressed firmly on the glass, going from the center out to try and make sure that it adhered well. Apparently there's no adhesive on the screen covering section of the glass, and rather it is on only the outer edges. So basically anything that is gold, is adhering to your phone. I would still recommend pressing down on the center, going out though to make sure you avoid any issues, although very slim, with parts of the adhesive not staying down properly.

One big issue is that the glass has made it quite difficult to make swipe from the outer screen, going in. As in, when you want to check notifications, or use Samsung pay you have to either learn the sweet spot, or go at it a few times until you are finally able to get to the menu you want. I often had to try swiping at least 3-4 times to open Samsung pay, and usually at least once I would open the app drawer by mistake. As for the notification screen it was the same issue. It wasn't only the top and bottom though, if you tried pressing certain keys on the keyboard, such as those on the side of the screen, it would sometimes have difficulty registering. The second problem is that the glass is a magnet to anything oily. If you have any sweat, or oil on your fingers then it will leave streaks like no other on the glass. It's easy enough to clean off, but still it sucks.

So now the glass is on, and we're ready to go. First I tried it with a Tech21 wallet case and had no complaints. Didn't have any issues with the glass lifting or cracking, but still had problems with recognizing inputs from the edges of the screen. Only one day I had an issue where I heard light clicks when using the back button, but after some firm pressing on the glass near the bottom, it went away. I ended up returning the case for a different one, not important but if you were wondering, Tech21 worked fine with the screen protector for me.

For my last protector, which I just received today I'll go a little into the Coral screen protector, which I learned about from this thread.

Here is what came with the Coral glass. It had a nice box for it too, but there's a lot going on in this picture already.

I only just put it on maybe 30 minutes ago, but the install process was a breeze. They included an alcohol cleaning pad, the rigid dust removal blue film, a microfiber cleaning wipe, and some helpful instructions. So after washing my hands, and getting the heaviest book I've got I started the install. What I can say is this. The items provided for the install are much appreciated, as this is what I'm used to when purchasing a glass protector kit. Dust free materials and proper cleaning supplies make everyone happy since it makes the whole install easy, fast and overall gives you a better end result. From my first impressions it looks like the glass is exactly the same as the one that came from Jetech. Same cutouts, same feel, adhesive location, and gold paint.

I can't say much about the overall feel, or my experiences with the glass but I will update after a few days of use to let you guys get a good idea on how it is before making a purchase.

Edit: I tried the case and and I hate it after only a day. From what I can see it's the exact same thing that is included in the Jetech glass. It has the same problems I was experiencing as well. The difficulty swiping from any edge, the fingerprint magnet effect, but this one also had more clicking on the backlit keys when pressed as well as the rainbow effect in the center of the screen. Guess I'm going to leave the phone without a screen protector for now and hope that my flip cover protects it enough.

I also want to note that I did not get anything for free, or at a discount. Paid for everything, just as any of you would and I just want to leave some real reviews, as a real customer for everyone here to give you some of my personal thoughts on these, to hopefully help some people make a good purchase. Or, avoid making a bad purchase.
