So like me i am sure you all went thru a lot of glass and plastic screen protectors for your galaxy S7 and nothing fits right or feels same.

Here is a new one by CORAL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL-9u0dnzuk

Here is a video review by our own ebpman

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Fzelt0l9s.

Mod edit: Commercial links removed.

Hopefully i was able to help you all out!

EDIT UPDATE:

Review for the Coral Tempered Glass

#1 Looks 8/10- It dosent look exactly like the phone, so its like putting a case for the front as well. However dont get me wrong it does look very good so i will give it an 8 since it does not preserve the samsung color all the way but it comes very close.

#2 Design: Idk how i can rate this one. It is shaped just like the phone screen so thumbs up i guess.

#3 Functionality: Flawless touch screen experience. This field will get 10/10

#4 Compatibility: Already tried it with other cases, about 5 of them (i work at Verizon) and it works well with all of them. I can see it being a problem with some off brand super tight cases though. I tested it with UAG, Incipio, Speck, Spigen, Case Mate.

#5 Protection: It makes my phone feel very secure and is a solid over all product. so this is one place it gets 10/10 for sure. It is 0.26 MM which is thinner than 0.33 MM regular glass we are used to but if the glass was any thicker i dont think the cases would fit it, so i do believe its the perfect thickness.

Overall its a 9 depending on how it does with my cases but i am sure it ill pass with flying colors.

Will do a more in depth review once i get back home from work tonight or tomm. Will post pictures

I am using it with an otter-box commuter right now and its working great. Also idk how many of you saw this but here is the video of our very own ebpman who did a review on one as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Fzelt0l9s

Another review by [MENTION=3085117]seoulbrova[/MENTION] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70dP...ature=youtu.be

P.S: I have more cases coming in oblique and caseology and all so ill post how those work with this here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] peachpuff:
These companies should probably have options where the samsung logo gets hidden.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] shamwow19:
would you really like that?? i kind prefer mine as if there is nothing on the screen to preserve the orignal look. But then i am also the person whos like BEFORE and is against the after
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Sir_Eagle:
Ordered one, hope it's as nice as it looks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Obsidian Octagon:
Are there any distributors of Coral products in Canada? The shipping costs bring this to about $60 CDN, which seems a bit high for me. Also, is Coral associated with Leaf (perhaps owned by them)?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] xxaarraa:
I wanted to order this, but even with the $5 off coupon, it adds up to $30+. They charge $4.50 for first class mail shipping, which is ridiculous. $32 for a screen protector is a bit rich.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] poopooplatter:
Please let us know how it fits! It seems like all the manufacturers are having problems with those curved edges with not only tempered glass, but also PET. Those slightly curved edges are making it difficult to find any screen protector that is full screen and doesn't have edge lifting or issues with cases. This is the first company with a full screen tempered glass protector that actually has a video of it on the s7 and addresses those issues. Still, it will be good to hear from someone that has tested it first hand that isn't paid by the company.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] shamwow19:
Is it ? everytime i ship something using first class mail it always ends up being over $5 honestly i cant comment on the weight as idk if i have ever shipped anything which weighs like a tempered glass but oh well i wont complain if it works properly, otherwise back it goes lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] _Gir_:
Whats with colored screen protectors this time around?

Are they trying to hide the rainbow effect?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Leeum:
I can confirm that this tempered glass protector would fit as advertised because i bought the plastic ones and they fit perfectly. Heres the link. I purchased one and should arrive in a week. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/17175543...49&var=470968620531&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Just bought the gold, will update on how it looks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] poopooplatter:
Interesting, is that a knockoff Zagg? Not that the brand matters. As long as it fits, protects the screen and doesn't interfere with the touch sensititivy, I don't care about the brand. Maybe mfg finally figured out how to make these for the curved glass. However, the title states for Samsung Galaxy S6 S7 and I've seen plenty on Amazon that state full coverage for Galaxy S7. Then based on reviews, it seems they just rebranded an S6 protector. It does state beneath the title, [tested on Galaxy S7], and also gives the option to select S6 or S7. I hope it fits! If so, it means that there will be a lot more of these available and prices will come down. If you bought the PET one, did you notice any edge lifting?

@ -Gir-, in the video it actually shows the rainbow effect, so no, I don't think that's it. Maybe it helps with aligning it? I don't know, and it does seem sort of unnecessary. The one in the ebay link also has colored borders.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Dwayne01:
Dam, no getting these in the UK? I checked the site and they only ship to the states.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Leeum:
I am waiting on the glass one to arrive. I bought a 3 pack of the plastic ones and stuffed one of them up but second one fit on perfectly. Using a Spigen case and no screen lifting. Touch sensitivity is smooth as it is off. No problems at all
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] StickyGeko:
I got my onyx s7 yesterday, 1st day out of the house. Rocking a spigen case (need to change the case, rear is clear plastic and very slippy) add to that the screen is naked, im scare of breaking it.

Ive akways had tempered glass on my s5 and had no issues. ordered the crystal spigen but desperate for a tempered glass one in the uk :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] lost0138:
will wait for a price drop, they sell other items on amazon for much less. obviously this will be higher than most but hoping a small drop will happen soon

keep us posted on field tests :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Obsidian Octagon:
Looks like that one only ships in Australia, which is shame for me here in Canada. The price seems much better than the one from Coral, but maybe there is a quality difference. If I was in Oz I would likely order this one and try it out. The price of the Coral one is too high for me to order it right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Leeum:
Yeah there is this one also. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/18180932...49&var=483012366865&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Obsidian Octagon:
Thanks, but looks like that one also only ships within Oz. I decided to order this one: https://www.amazon.ca/Galaxy-Protec...458707412&sr=8-8&keywords=screen+protector+s7

I'll report back once I get it and (try to) install it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] poopooplatter:
Hope that Jetech works for you! Just checked again on Amazon and it looks like there are quite a few options now with the same description as the Coral one; namely 9H hardness, oleophobic coated and full coverage (Sorry, can't add urls, newbie poster, long time browser). Also, all seem to have the colored borders. Prices seem to range from about $8.99-$29.99 (Checked Amazon UK and there seems to be a few on there too!). I have noticed that like the Jetech, most of these state the thickness is 0.3 mm, which one reviewer stated made pressing the home button difficult for his fat fingers. Curious to know if anybody else has had that issue before. It seems this is a common thickness for the tempered glass. My last one had a gap under the home button so it wasn't an issue.

@ Leeum, thanks for the update on the fit of the plastic ones. Good to know you didn't have issues with edge lift with the Spigen case.

@ StickyGeko, I had the same case and almost dropped it first day! Immediately ordered another case and only kept that one on there long enough for the new one to arrive. Ended up going with the Spigen Slim Armor. Still a bit smooth for my liking, but it seems to have just a bit more padding.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] HTCMDA:
You all saw that this screen protector does not sit completely flat against the lcd, right? If you watch that video you'll see rainbow ripple colors on the screen..that's because the glass screen protector is not in contact with the lcd. that's not good!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] poopooplatter:
I did see that and the reviewer actually pointed it out too, but brushed it off as not that big of a deal. It didn't seem to effect the touch sensitivity for him. Then again he is obviously promoting that screen protector. That's why I'm waiting to hear what people here have to say about the ones they purchased before I throw my money away on another screen protector. Already got burned ordering one when I preordered the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] HTCMDA:
my thoughts exactly!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Looks like the shipping for the coral screen is going to take a bit, so I ended up ordering this on amazon

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01CW71ZBG/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Seems to be the same design, and I'll have it much sooner. My only worry is that it'll make it too thick to use in my gear vr.

Anyone else with a gear and tempered glass protector have any troubles?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] shamwow19:
Do update us on how that one is when you receive it please. Its like $5 cheaper than the coral one but then they dont have the lifetime warranty on this brand it seems.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] ebpman:
Guys the corel one works well. The key here is alignment. I did get some clicking by the button after a day but realigned it and it hasn't since. I do have another company GPEL sending me a GORRILLA GLASS version and I will report back once I see how that works. They other thing that plays a big factor is the case. Some cases are so tight that they cause the glass to bubble off the screen and make it difficult to tap.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] RebDovid:
The GPEL website cautions that their current (at least, current advertised) screen protector for the S7 has a halo effect, but GPEL will send a free replacement when a new version is ready. Do you know which version you'll be getting?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] laurie9300:
I have the Tagg screen protector, and it stopped mine from fitting the VR. It would no longer slide into the usb clip.

I noticed they were 2 little rubber nubs causing the problem. I trimmed them off with a craft knife, and now it fits no problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Good to hear, thanks for letting us know. It's not too loose though is it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] laurie9300:
Not too loose, fits well!

I must have jinxed musk though, just went for a VR session, and the snappy clip on the other side snapped down hard, and cracked my protector!

I didn't realise until I took it out, so be warned, ease the clip down sllloooowwwwllly!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] red12355:
I bought a coral screen protector, but IMO it's a little dishonest for the guy who is selling the protector (shamwow19) to promote his company (coralguard) as if he was an objective 3rd party (saying stuff like he just "found" this protector and how he hopes it works well as if he doesn't have access to his own inventory... and then giving it a rating of 9/10 in his "review"). Not to mention advertising is against the forum rules.

proof:

He says he is behind the Leaf screen protectors here. The ICANN database shows both leafseries and coralguard as being registered to the same person.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Got my jetech today, and there's a few pros and con's to it.

The pros would be

It feels nice, I was temporarily using a cheap plastic one to avoid micro scratches until I could go glass and it feels much better.

The screen fits really well. It's a bit cloudy right now so I can't get full light effect to see if there's any rainbow effect but I'll update if I notice anything off.

I was able to use my gear VR with no problems, it just fit a little snuggly compared to before. I was also sure to lock it in slowly to avoid cracking it.

Cons would be

The install kit looks pretty cheap. Maybe I'm just used to luxuries like alcohol wipes and dust free drying wipes but what I got was a dusty piece of cloth and a dust removal strip. Every time there was a smudge, I had to use the cloth to wipe it off, which lead to more dust. I eventually just ended up using the cloth from my sunglasses and haven't had a problem after that.

It seems to be a fingerprint magnet. Or maybe its just me. Its a little warm inside so I was a little sweaty, but it just seemed to be hard to clean.

Its thick which is good for protection I guess, but its an awkward feel using the home button. I'll get used to it, and the button works fine but its just a small change you'll notice.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] red12355:
Does the jetech protector use a dot matrix? One of the review on Amazon seemed to indicate that it does.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Yes it does, you can see it when under direct lighting. Otherwise it's not really noticeable.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Hobson318:
Got a jetech today and am not impressed with it. It did seem to fit ok. Mine would not work with the vr. When I tried to my phone back in it's speigen tougharmor, the rubber lifted a corner and cracked the protector. The glass only sticks where you see color. It does not adhere to the glass like other ones do. The glass itself doesn't feel as good as the icarez glass I put back on my phone. It also is a fingerprint magnet. Even though the icarez one has the halo effect. I agree the installation kit felt cheap. Got a small piece of dusty cloth, a blue strip that wasn't sticky at all and 2 tabs for alignment. Was surely not worth the $20 I paid for it on amazon. I would not recommend this screen protector.

No dot matrix that I can tell.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
I'm using a tech21 case which is fitting alright.. As for the dots, you see them in direct light so it's not so bad.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Obsidian Octagon:
Regardless of OP doing what appears to be a little dishonest advertising, what is your opinion (red12355) of the coral screen protector? I'm still waiting on the cheaper Jetech screen protector I ordered from Amazon, but the reviews of it in this thread don't seem to be stellar. I haven't seen any negative reviews of the Coral one, so perhaps it might actually be the best one out there, even if it is a bit of a higher price.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cadcamaro:
Another update on the jetech. It's incredibly hard to get the top or bottom of the screen to register your finger. So paying with Samsung pay, or checking notifications are no longer easy, quick and convenient.

I'll be sending this back tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] john_matrix:
IntelliARMOR contacted, they will release their GS7 tempered glass in approximately 3 or 4 weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] gratefultyler:
Agreed, if his product is legit and the first protector to actually fit my s7, he can call himself Shirley.

Got my shipping notification from Coral yesterday for Saturday delivery, I'll update when tested.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] crapymonkey:
I have one on my s7, it came from a best buy in Louisiana about 2 days after the s7 release. It works great but you can see the slight curve of the s7 (non-edge) on the sides leaves a space where the glass and screen doesn't meet. I haw ever countered this with my otterbox, it covered the edge where the space is. Besides that a solid 8 out of 10.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] gratefultyler:
Cool, glad you never speed or break the law like myself. We need more perfect angels in the world.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] john_matrix:

Maybe they told me that because they preparing a new build?

**What a mess to find a correct tempered glass for this phone...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cingulum:
Just tried to order one for shipping to BC, Canada. Even with the discount and insane shipping cost (minimum US $11) the total cost comes to US $ 39 (approx CAD 50), which IMO is an outrageous price to pay for a screen protector. Will wait till a more sensible option becomes available.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] parkgt:
I waited once and it cost me screen replacement that makes the $39.00 look cheap!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] Sir_Eagle:
Got the Coral Tempered Glass Protector yesterday. It is actually pretty nice, full coverage and fits the screen. The problem it, it doesn't work with either case that I have. The lip on both cases actually causes the glass protector to lift off the screen. Then the screen becomes very unresponsive on top and bottom.

Put a Zagg Invisible Shield HD Glass on it now. I'll try their curved glass when it comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] cingulum:
Agreed!

Just came across this option, https://www.amazon.ca/S7-Screen-Pro...&sr=1-1&keywords=S7+Screen+Protector+-+Peyou+[3D+Curved+Full+Coverage]+Premium+Tempered+Glass+[Ultra+Thin+0.2mm+Thickness]+Screen+Protector+for+Samsung+Galaxy+S7#productDetails. Definitely cheaper than Coral and the product description says full coverage.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] scott14719:
I got mine from Coral...shattered. It was sent in a small cheap USPS Envelope and was damaged during shipping. Their website continuously states to call them that they would love to talk to you....but not one phone number on their site. So I Emailed them about it. I guess the protector might work fine, but so far I'm not impressed by the company or service. Sending something so fragile in such a crappy package and then not providing a phone number for personal contact is not good business practice.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] poopooplatter:
Just as an FYI for any that find this thread. There is a more objective thread that lists many tempered glass screen protectors including the Coral:

The Coral site is always out of stock...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] kreizyidiot:
I have noticed that with the cases, it pretty much covers the curved edge portions of the screen. I wonder if a flat tempered glass protector would work...

IS there a flat glass protector out for the s7 yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] PiousInquisitor:
The OP owns or is at the least an employee of the company that sells the Coral screen protector. Of course he is going to say they are the best. Technically it does have full coverage. It may not meet your standards but it met his so he marked it as resolved.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] gleggie:
Yea i was wondering how this thread hasn't been taken down yet, isn't this against the rules? Anyways there's a different thread that is more objective but still nobody has found a perfect solution
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] PiousInquisitor:
The mods are sitting on their thumbs. There are several screen protector threads. Two new ones popped up today. Its kind of insane.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] :
I left the thread open as users seemed to be having a reasonable discussion about the product and the OP has not posted anything else since. If there is no sensible discussion of the product going on anymore I will close it

for some reason the pixel c prompts "..turn on bluetooth?" when it comes out of sleep. actually, i have it in a case that has an opening cover and it shows the message prompt when i open the cover. my nexus 9 has a similar cover case and i have never seen the message opening the cover on that device. i'd like to get rid of the prompt. i've looked around and can not find any controlling check box for that prompt. of course, turning on bluetooth is not a valid option to me. thanks for any tips.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GolfOX:
The magnet in the cover is triggering the message like you are attaching the magnetic keyboard. Don't let the cover flap contact the bottom back of the Pixel. I just dismiss the message.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkryder:
ok, yeah, that explains. i have a n9 with similar cover and have not seen this message but i'm thinking the c may have a more aggressive message pattern due to probability of keyboard being attached.

Hi,

I cracked the screen on the Sony Xperia Z ultra. I bought an LCD screen and touch screen separately. I have installed both the lcd and the touch screen digitizer very carefully and correctly.

The lcd screen works fine however I cannot get the touch screen to work. There is no response to touches. I have not bonded them together or placed any tape between them. Is it possible the touch screen is faulty or does it have to be bonded to the lcd screen? What I am missing here.

Thanks,

Rob

hello, I have the exact same problem, have you found a fix?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rob54321:
Solved:

Hi after trying everything with hardware and running out of options I decided to flash the stock rom again just to see what happens. When I booted everything worked. The touch screen behaves normally now. I guess some software must have been corrupted. It may not be necessary to flash the rom again, it may just require a factory reset. I didn't try this but it may suffice.

I hope this helps someone. :)
