Never found a glass or plastic one that worked with.my edge. A wet plastic one that would go under the edges of a clear plastic spigen type case would be great. I now use a spigen and onscreen protector. I reckon that is all you may need of the gorilla is good.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dayloon:
What do you mean by "onscreen protector"?

Has anyone tried liquid screen protectors like shark proof?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] faded03cobra:
Bestskinsever was great for the s7 edge. Its a film, but worked with a case
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sanjsrik:
You may want to read/watch this. While the screen is functional in an unscientific drop-test, it's spidered after one drop.

I'd never heard of this before and found them on the web. Something about the coating made me ask them a question (as well as ask if it will work on the S8 Plus). On the "registration" page they state that once you register your device, they'll send you a reminder email of when to recoat your device. Yet, NOWHERE on their site do they state how long this coating lasts. On their site in the FAQ they state that the only way to remove it would be by using alcohol-based solvents, but then why would you need to put on another layer if the only way to remove it is with solvents?

Nevermind, I found it further down in their FAQ it says it's "supposed" to last 2 years but they recommend that you reapply after 13 months. Seems odd.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] felixthecat:
Of the case stops direct impact on the screen, then this should be m9re protective than a thin glass screen protector against shattering. Glass screen protectors are more for scratches imho.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] lmanlo:
Just received the GPEL Case Friendly Tempered Glass as they call. it. It only has adhesives on all sides.

I currently have the 2nd version of Zagg Curved glass for my S7 Edge which has adhesive on the sides and have been using it for about 3 months now without problems.

https://www.zagg.com/us/en_us/invis...xy-s7-edge/glass-curve-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge

The GPEL one seems to be the same format. For GPEL depends on which one you get Clear or Black. The Black one only has the color on top and bottom and clear on the sides for the adhesive parts or all clear around.

I can't say it this would be good or not as don't have a phone to try the protectors on yet. But do have a GPEL black and clear to see how it works and if it works as well as the Zagg is.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XX16SJF

or

https://www.gpelstore.com/products/...ed-glass-screen-protector?variant=41192683219

Mostly with Case Friendly they don't get pushed with the case which for the S7E I'm using the Zagg and UAG Case.

I've also used the Gpel2 for S7E but was very limited to the case and you have a low chance of working but without worked well.

But I expect everyone has pointed it out with TGSP is kind of a hard to miss.

The main thing is that this time they do include at least adhesive on the sides from the start on case friendly ones.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dansan382:
very interesting... not sure which i like better, the black or the clear.

i commented on techarmors posting on amazon because i found it very funny. people were asking if it works with a case but techarmors response was they dont have a device to test. I asked, how did you make this and test if you dont have the device? how do they know it even fits?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Fuyuanhuihaoxiao:
Their won't be any perfect screen for it!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] cantenna:
Yup, tried a few on S7 Edge, all garbage! Do yoursel a favor, dont bother!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Yes, there will not be a tempered glass that will work on these curved screens. The ones with only adhesive on the top, bottom and thin sides just plain suck.

I've been through hundreds of dollars of curved glass in the past and they all suck. I would love to find something for the new S8 + but I don't think it's going to happen.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] RMXO:
As others have said, tempered screen sucks on a curved display. So I went with these to see if I can get lucky

There's a YouTube video of the OtterBox alpha glass on a S7 seems to be pretty decent.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] jpinks:
I kinda thought it was way to reflective. The S8+ I looked at outside in bright daylight didnt have much problem with reflections, or getting washed out from direct sunlight. The Otter glass seemed like that could be a problem to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bonerp:
On my 2 note 7's I went without (as I wasn't keeping them) and neither had a mark on when they got returned. GG5 is very good - as opposed to GG3 on my Mate 9PD which marks if I sneeze on it!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] donguason:
I ordered the GPEL but might buy this one as well. This guy said he was going to do a follow up video on this one to see how it holds up.

Going for the glass protector from Olixar, with a ultra slim hard plastic transparant backprotector with slightly raised edges from Otterbox;

in combo with otterbox Clearly Protected Skin
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sanjsrik:
I went a completely different way and ordered the SharkProof liquid protector. Figured I'd give that a try this time and see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bagged00:
Just watched the review for the otterbox tempered glass for the s8 plus.I liked the design of it but it doesn't seem it's going to play well with other cases. And the guy didn't do a touch sensitivity review on it so who knows if that works
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dayloon:
I did the same
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Outbreak444:
I saw that it has the grid on it, not sure if I'd go for that or not. The last phone I had that I could see dots in a pattern was my blackberry storm. I hope they come out with the same design but no dot grid.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] OtisFeelgood:
I just ordered it. Hopefully, it's worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Waarez:
As mentioned also in the video; It would counter the rainbow effect.

On the other hand, my wife her phone (A3 2016) with a tempered glass screenprotector has no dots and neither does she have any trouble with a rainbow effect.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Outbreak444:
I don't think that's the purpose of the dots from this screen protector. Those dots allow for contact on the screen, but only cheap ones seem to have this effect these days outside of some like Orzly. They state that the dots do what you and the guy in the video said, but their purpose is for the layer of PET they use and without that it wouldn't serve any other purpose than what I said earlier. I'm not sure that this brand does that.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] based:
Post your thoughts on the sharkproof when you install it. I was interested in this but have been skeptical about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] ars0n:
same here!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] GreeleyXda:
anybody actually try the Olixar? (assuming it would be the same as the version they sold for the s7 edge or note 7)

the video makes it sound good
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dansan382:
pre-ordered my GS8+ a few hours ago directly from Samsung. Ordered a spigen neo hybrid, sd card and also picked up 2 glass protectors. the GPEL one and tech armor, see how they hold up

TAGG[CaseFriendly] Tempered Glass Screen Protector- Samsung Galaxy S8 / S8+ Plus

Anyone have any feedback if you can use tempered glass with the GearVR 2017? With previous revisions you could not
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bagged00:
Zagg just released the install videos of their sapphire and glass protectors. Think I'm going to try the sapphire one when it releases
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] MrWicked1:
Previous reviews for iPhones etc are pretty bad for the zagg sapphire hopefully they've improved it
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] XeNoNtheNoBLE:
I bought this screen protector before receiving my S8+ on Monday. The screen protector itself seemed okay, but I wasn't entirely convinced. The material feels very plastic-y and cheap. The biggest problem was when I put on my Spigen case. It immediately went under the protector (weak adhesive, relatively big gap) and made it pop off.

I would hold out for a better one. Right now I'm using BestBuy ClearPlex. It's a perfect fit - however, the case still makes it protrude a little in the corners. The case itself is phenomenal though!

Hope this helped!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] acheney1990:
Got my S8+ yesterday. Not sure what to do. I hate cases so I'm just going to be using a skin. Kinda wanted a screen protector but not if they all suck. I could get a film one but won't feel as good as this screen does. I do have insurance on this phone but there is a pretty high deductible through my carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sanjsrik:
You think about getting the Shark-Proof? I ordered the two pack and am planning on trying that rather than a screen protector as this is liquid that bonds to the glass and prevents scratches:

http://www.shark-proof.com/

Just a thought.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] ars0n:
This is why I do not trust shark proof..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tT3e3E-g9vk

This is a video they made. Watch the stress in his hand as he pushes down on the top part vs the bottom part. You can visibly see his hand shake from the pressure as he "cuts" the bottom part of the screen. While at the top part, he BARELY glides his hand across it.

Total bull****.

And not to mention they used a "plastic" demo ipad.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] acheney1990:
I've tried it on another device before...I can't remember if it worked. Well now that I think about it I don't think I ever tested it. I did try another product they sell here in Canada at Staples called Liquid Armour that is the same thing...A nano liguid protector. I didn't see any real effect from that but it's honestly hard to tell unless your torture test it which normal people don't want to do with there phone.

I've only broken one phone screen before in my life and that was the Note 7. Dropped it on pavement from about 6 inches and shattered the edge screen part. That's what makes me nervous about this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sanjsrik:
LOL, then don't use it.

If you check my channel I review all the availble Tempered glass Protectors

I got all the different types available and will be testing out the Moshi ion Glass... ( very curious about that one) Verizon Dragon Glass, and the Zagg Saphire one... The HD Curve is the same as the GPEL-- THE EXACT SAME--- The sapphire one I am curious about as well and should have it in my hands in a few days..

My Channel name is GravX if you wanna check out the video... Just look at the description so you can skip to the protector you would like to see.

Thanks guy I hope the info helps!

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] RMXO:
I got this one and so far its working out very well. no sensitivity issue and you dont hear any clicking sound when pressing on the screen due to it not sticking.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XXJMZ3N/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

EDIT: ok, im starting to hear popping sounds with the SGP Neo Hybrid case installed. I have another SGP case coming tonight and see if the case does a better job.

Wouldn't recommend this one with a case on.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XSXP2XF/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You can hear some popping noise on the bottom due it not sticking. Falls off once SGP Neo Hybrid is installed.

wouldnt recommend this one either.

I have a feeling my non tempered glass screen protector will do a better job
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] acheney1990:
Fits good all around? Does it have the little dots underneath that some do or any rainbow effect? Does it feel good like the original screen?

---------- Post added at 01:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

Fits good all around? Does it have the little dots underneath that some do or any rainbow effect? Does it feel good like the original screen? I see you are having issues with the case. I don't use a case...So wonder if would still be an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] RMXO:
Sadly i noticed some rainbow effects and it does feel like a good screen only w/o a case

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] mixxxk:
Got my s8+ today. Tried 3 different TGSP. Didn't like how u could see the glue on the edges. I tried the GPEL case friendly, iCarez Pro, and some knock off brand. While I didn't feel any immediate clicky-ness. Aesthetically, I just didn't like it. Been using an Armorsuit on the S7 Edge, same one for just shy of a year, still barely noticable. So I'm gonna go with that yet again. Looks questionable on install, but by morning should be ready to go.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] RMXO:
I'm pretty sure its going to be like the ones I've mentioned in here already. Look for my previous post and links to see they are exactly a like.

tried the iCarez true glass and while the for was good, it kept getting popped out by my tech21 case. Took the case of to get a good feel and applied some hear to it to no avail, it was really easy to remove. On the other hand the tech21 case hugs the phone like a champ, only drawback compared to the s7 edge one is that the back is a fingerprint magnet, other than that they never disappoint even with docents of falls.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] MNX1024:
Yeah, in terms of design, they do look similar on the photo provided in Amazon. Hope that I have much better luck than you with them. Also ordered the plastic film one too, really don't want to go back to those once I have started to use glass protectors. Worst comes to worst, I might just go without a screen protector.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know why curved glass protector does not have full adhesive?

Also, why the heck does most of the glass protectors have the black frame....? Why not make it fully clear? Makes to sense to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] RMXO:
Best of luck, I'm using the plastic film from SGP, works well but the bottom came off once I switched from the SGP Neo Hybrid to SGP Ultra Hybrid w/ kickstand. I'm going to return the Ultra Hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dansan382:
I tried out the GPEL tempered glass one and also TechArmors plastic screen protectors. Both were pure garbage. the GPEL didn't want to stick correctly so it would click every time i hit the middle of the screen. it also would like air in between and would fog up in between the screen and protector. I could swear the GPEL wasn't even glass, it felt like plastic.

The Tech armor plastic dry screen protectors went right into the trash. Wouldn't even stick and forget about protecting the edges.. I HATE to do it but right now im running no screen protector and its freaking me out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] lmanlo:
Ok I installed the GPEL clear one it looks good and don't have any problems on sensitivity.

Not sure if my installations was good as there does not seem to be any click or problems with sensitivity.

But I've only had it for an hour or so. If I get the same problems as other's I'll update.

I have my phone with the GPEL Clear TGSP and UAG Plasma Case.

Posted some pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Greatbape:
Yeah the glue around the edge is really noticeable(on the 2 I have tried at least). I was wondering why so many have that black border. It is to hide the glue. I think this is going to be the first year I go back to a wet install non-glass protector. With a naked gloss slick wrap on the back and a rhino bumper.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] mixxxk:
My Armorsuit settled and I'm rocking a Luvvitt clear hybrid case. Take a look.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Z51:
same one that was given to me. piece of junk. mine came off lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bagged00:
Got a Verizon branded tempered glass. Came out to like 28$ so a little pricey but not bad. My thoughts, the screen protector as of right now works perfect I have 0 problems with lifting, touch sensitivity etc. Install was very easy, and the protector feels like it's sticking well. Seems like it's case friendly but I do have 2 very minimalistic cases. The dot matrix is pretty easily noticeable at certain angles but mostly only on dark screens. Over all so far I'm very happy with it.I can deal with the dot matrix to help protect this screen. When I installed I laid the screen protector on and pushed out from the center. My thought on this is its removing gap between the protector and screen and then sticking versus just sitting on top of the screen and pushing the sides down. Is it guaranteed to work like that? Probably not, but it did work for me
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] oneandroidnut:
I second GPEL being straight junk. Middle of screen and toward home button had air trapped and feels weird. My skinomi wasnt case friendly so im stuck dealing with GPEL junk until a new one comes in!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] lmanlo:
I have the GPEL but got mine through their main site at gpelstore.com. I got the Clear version and have not had any sensitivity issues or clicking or bubbles.

So not sure if their black border ones from Amazon are all coming out bad or I was just lucky that I have not experienced those issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] HNIC215:
I just don't feel good putting some ****ty screen protector on such a beautiful device/screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sakohunter:
I wonder if this would do well with a led view case.

I wouldn't mind spending more if it absolutely worked. Would cost just as much as buying 4-5 different protectors and having them all fail.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bagged00:
I think it would work. You can tell the screen protector as high on the phone you clear cases. Also they have a 14 dai return policy so you can just return it if it won't stay on
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dansan382:
GPEL answered one of my emails where I complained about the product. Their response was basically, sorry you feel that way. They haven't responded since. Going back to Amazon to complain.

I tried my last film tech armor protector again, it stuck perfectly on the inside of the screen and looked great. The edges, forget it.. wouldn't stay down at all. Really sucks because it had great potential and if it did stay down I was going to keep it
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] misiokicio:

Don't get the luvvit. It just has glue on edges which I already have dust collecting under it. Also edges look ugly with glue. It is a partial coverage tempered glass to allow for any case to fit. I will leave it kn until someone finds the best curved tempered glass.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] ProStreetCamaro:
I have the skinomi on mine and its actually not bad. Obviously not as slick as tempered glass but very usable and im not worried about my screen getting scratched with it. Thats my own personal reason for screen protectors is keeping it from getting scratched.
