[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Accessories] GravX:
Hey guys, For those of you who don't know me I have a channel GravX Reviews... I started it after becoming utterly pissed off with Tempered glass screen protectors for curved screens. Finally Found a good one for the S7 Edge in Whitestone Dome glass...But i wanted something you just slap on with no crazy installation...My channel was a result of that search... Hopefully this can help clarify and save you money ( I'm also writing this so you don't have to watch the video I am working on) The glass i talk about can rang from.20mm to .50mm in thickness..most are .33 mm.

This Knowledge is from testing over 400 kinds of Tempered glass over 4 years , needless to say i have a small idea of what Im talking about-( all from amazon-ebay or allibaba) im sure some of you will be ignorant enough to tell me I'm wrong and that glass truly is different..That's fine your entitled to your opinion .. All I'm doing is trying to help save people money and frustration- I wont try and sell you any product... Ive used the case friendly version for a long time because it was cheap and easy to pop off and on.. I noticed some touch issues...with all of them but i just got used to it.. In the end you get what ever you want. this is just here as a guide

All of these items can be bought on alibaba for 10-20cents for the edged adhesive ones in bulk...the re-sellers send them custom graphics for their boxes and then sell them like they designed it...( so stupid) kind of like zero lemons 5500 MAH battery case... its the same one as the 5500 MAH cases on ebay-

1st. Types of Glass screen protectors for the Galaxy S9/Plus or any protector for that matter..

Case Friendly ( any one that looks like this will be virtually identical to the next ( it might have thicker or slimmer black silk printing) ( which is the Black or white or what ever color they use) They also come in clear

https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Ca...9d-20&linkId=0e4c23f42c372db5a43d5221f96f8d2f

Pros-

Can be cheap

Works with most cases- But not all... UAG <<cough cough>>

Easy and fast to put on

Will protect your phone

oleophobic coating is cheap and comes off fast.

Cons

Edged Adhesive ( they will try to trick you by saying "full Coverage

Micro Dot matrix - AKA "pixel grid Technology" such a stupid term

"precision Grid matrix" "Perfect touch Grid" Its all the same stupid ****- Its placed into screen protectors that don't have full adhesive to assist in the identification of touch on the display by the digitizer panel

Re sellers grossly over charge for them and add Bull**** terms such as shatterproof...or ballistic or bulletproof...explosion proof- Anti Fingerprint ETC

2. Case friendly Full adhesive

They made cheap soft glass ones for the S8 and note 8 and they sucked...one side always had air bubbles.

The new Version is supposedly Hard Glass- Zagg is making the Curve glass elite

https://www.zagg.com/us/en_us/invis...protector/glass-curve-elite-samsung-galaxy-s9

I have it on order and will test it when i get it next week.

Im sure if the product is good it will have more sellers... Zagg does have a lifetime warranty which cost 5 -10 dollars to ship depending where you are, which if the product is good might make a worthy investment...But time will tell

2A- Case Friendly Privacy screens-

https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Ve...9d-20&linkId=ea6e28cfd2269ce9a43cb5ecdab9a914

Identical to the the above mentioned case friendly ones but with an extra layer of Privacy Film ( which makes it thicker

They all have edged adhesive and they are all the same product..Nothing special between sellers- NO MATTER what they say

3. Full Coverage Screen Protectors ( otterbox will sell an Alpha glass version of this that might be cut Short like the Galaxy Note 8 Version...But its the same thing...just a few inches shorter ( all pros and Cons Apply)

So many of these flood the market and they are all the same garbage with Edge strips of adhesive ( the ones for the S9 / S9 plus have thicker bands of edged adhesive...but it will still cause issues..

https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Co...9d-20&linkId=4e1080c6fdae78ae656456b35cc76aae

Pros-

Covers your entire display

Cheap

Easy to put on

Cons

Doesn't work with a lot of cases

( it does work with Casemate ToughStand and ToughMag)

Sellers overcharge for the same ****ty product ( while adding flashy words like Bullet proof or 11 lbs of protection)

Will have touch issues with the screen due to edged adhesive ( it works OK..but some people will notice a degradation of sensitivity

Micro Dots

4. Full Coverage Full adhesive

This is the same as the regular full screen one before but with Full adhesive according the seller

https://www.amazon.com/Improve-Sens...9d-20&linkId=dd8fec54bddaa1443f4d9fc10dee4983

All the Pros as the Full screen Coverage version... Just with " Full screen Adhesive"

Cons if the adhesive is truly full screen would only be case compatibility

5. Case Friendly UV Glass kits ( whitestone Dome Glass and Alibaba Generic Kit)

Whitestone- https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Gl...9d-20&linkId=bdf7dd57946aa39b9e1d31c7b35156df

Alibaba Generic ( you need to buy 10 minimum order to get them

https://www.alibaba.com/product-det...l?spm=a2700.7724838.2017115.30.466f2b24loSX3N

UV KIT

Pros- Japanese Glass All the above use Chinese glass - Yes you can See and feel a difference -

Crystal Clear - no Micro Dot)

Oleophobic coating is high quality and can last up too 6 months depending on usage

Hydrophobic coating can last even longer.

Sealed due to the LOCA adhesive used , meaning no water or dirt can get under the glass

Cons

Expensive

Complicated installation

Easy to mess up

If you get dirt under it your screwed

Cannot be replaced after curing is done ( well..it can but its not worth the headache cleaning it up)

If done wrong and the safeguards aren't in place you can get adhesive in your speaker grill ( use the Speaker covers included)

The whitestone Kit while a lot more expensive then the allibaba generic kit does have a warranty and Whitestone is actively involved in customer satisfaction- they were the first to market this..

White stone has the Speaker Cover stickers which are an awesome touch and requested feature by alot of us. I dont know if the Generic One has them.. I didn't see it on the Images and they supplier has not answered me yet... Since the seller is the factory that makes them for whitestone it should - i think its shaddy AF that whitestones Factory Supplier is selling the Dome Kit unbranded and at a huge price difference...but i cant say im surprised.

If i missed anything please let me know

I didn't include FILM protectors..because they are useless and i didnt include liquid coating kits becuase they are essentially snake oil and will help with water and fingerprint resistance at the most... I will however be testing these products too see if they change in the past 3 years. I hope this helps you guys! Feel free to drop by the channel and show some love and support ( only if you want )
