I got the tgsp and am waiting for the glue capsule. However, my Op6 still has a soft screen protector on so I probably won't be experimenting till it needs to be replaced.

I bought two and will try two methods:

1. put the tgsp on, fill the halo with the glue and UV treat it ( I'm not sure if this might create a "ridge" between the tgsp and loca glue as time passes )

2. put the glue on the screen and apply the tgsp just like one would with the S9/S9+ tempered glass ( this one should work best )

I also forgot to say that you will probably need to put tape on the speakers, headphone jack, USB-C, alert slider, volume/power buttons as the glue can easily get in the smallest possible gaps.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Mar-cel:
What is the best protection now?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
I hate that plastic on the screen, so I don't have. Plus it does NOT provide ANY protection. So really - I'm not sure what's the point to apply it on the factory. To give people faulty feeling of protection?

Anyways, back to business. Before I bought OP6, I used to have quite few Samsung phones. All of them had Whitestone Dome TGSP. So, in aware of proper way to apply TGSP. I even have UV light to cure the glue.

Your option 2 is a right way of doing things. Earlier in the day Whitestone Dome did not provide tape to cover speaker grill, but recently they do. I think it's a good idea to cover the grill. However, why you need to cover everything else? Unless you have a plan for a big mess lol.

My concern is - how much glue you need? Like inWhitestone Dome case they give a tube with exact amount. But you're buying more then you need. How to measure - that's my question.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Jeik:
The capsule I got with my tgsp ( and the one I passed a link for ) had only a bit more than it was needed.

So my guess is enough to make a droplet 3-4cm in diameter when you put it on a phone.

But I usually just put tissues under the phone, cover the holes and go nuts with small capsules.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Your don't need to go nuts:)

Make sure tho the surface you working on is really flat.

I have the nillkin amazing h (not the h+ pro) on my device for 3 months know and I can say for me this is the best one yet. No issues.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] divvykev:
Just fitted the ibywind screen protector. Nice and easy to fit (even if you dont get it right first time!) And sits nicely with the clear case that came with the phone. Very smooth.

Very happy so far
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] parthsony2000:
Hello Everyone,

Did anyone tried Dbrand's new Prism screen protector?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] kalpik:
Have ordered. Will only ship in February.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] annie764:
I posted saying that i would get the ibwind tgsp sometime back - i got it for about two weeks now. It fits really well but doesn't fit with the spigen case. The spigen case lifts it up just a little and there is a bubble that doesn't go away (tried to readjust a few times). That said, i would look for a new case which is not as tight probably..but for now i don't care much about the small bubble
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] GAURAV THAKKAR:
get the orzly screen protector
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] askor:
I found the best tempered glass for Oneplus 6. Befor this I had Orzly but it was cutting screen quite big. It was annyoing so I started to search for better alternatives. And I found it. I can 100% recommend Ibywind tempered glass. I found it on Amazon tempered glass for full screen with mounting frame. I ordered it and after a week I got my packge. Inside plastic box I found mounting frame, two tempered glasses, two sets (with wet and dry wipes and anti dust sticker) and invisible carbon foil to back of my phone (cool, additional scratch resistance). Thanks to frame the mounting was the easiest ever and tempered glass is sticked perfect. Holes are good cutted, olephobic layer is very good.

Cost is 10 euro on Amazon.de (but you can find it on other country Amazons). Definietly worth this money.

My experience with the official tgsp
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] snippem:
That is more the wrong choice of case with the official protector
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] allan1229:
No case. Wouldn't stay down on the top left and top right had air bubbles that started after a day
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] supleed2:
I had a couple of issues with it lifting up but it went away after using the sticker in the pack on the back side of the official tgsp. It's the only one I've ever had that's had a sticker that actually worked in cleaning the underside
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] snippem:
No dust or dirt under the protector ??

Installed a bunch of them on different OnePlus phones and never had this.

The only faulty one was a protector with a line in the silicone adhesive.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] allan1229:
Nope. The bubbles in the right are between the adhesive and the glass
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
Hey, did you feel that loca glue is a better option than the regular oil capsules that get shipped with the protector? (I still have the same one as you lying around and haven't used it yet.)

What are the benefits of using loca glue as opposed to the regular oil?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Jeik:
I just got a capsule and will try it out when I get home.

Loca glue is oily till you treat it with UV light. Then it hardens,meaning it won't change/drip over time like oil would, it turns into hard glue.

EDIT

I'd call it a success, I only messed up the vertical alignment a bit ( but it still doesn't interfere with my RhinoShield Crashguard so I'm fine with it ) .

Remember to tape all the holes/buttons as the glue can get everywhere.

Spill the content of the capsule on the center of the screen and slowly put the tgsp on it ( do NOT press on the glass, simply wait for the glue to slowly seep everywhere ), after which you treat it with UV light ( 45s bottom, 45s middle and 45s top, you can also treat the edges for ~20s just to be sure) .
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Superguy:
I can't recommend the ibywind. Both started cracking within a week of installation, and the first one didn't even last a month before it was useless. The second one isn't cracking as bad, but it's showing some crush marks near the power button and has tiny hairline cracks in multiple places.

Original glass protector from OP held up much better, albeit for double the price.

I'm going to try a different one once this other ibywind becomes unusable.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] ahagersr:
I can confirm this as well. Installation was smooth, overall appearance and feel were great. Both found cracked when pulling out of pocket.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
Thanks once again for the incredibly informative reply! You rock!

Just another small question: do I understand correctly that, when using the regular oil, the effects wear off over time and the halo-effect reappears?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Jeik:
The oil is liquid and stays liquid unlike Loca glue which hardens after you treat it, meaning it can get "scraped off" by dust and fabric from clothes as you use the phone over time.

Loca glue hardens and becomes the same as the default glue ( it actually sticks on the much stronger than the regular glue from screen protectors ) .
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] prudhivisekhar:
Can anyone from India recommend me a good screen protector please... I tried some from local stores.. but the look and touch feel is bad.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
Not necessarily. In my case, it's holding up pretty good for over a month. I would suggest not using any oil and wait for 48 hrs. Chances are you may not need anything to fill the side gap. If side gaps persist after 48 hrs of tgsp application then go ahead and use something like olive oil or buy the commercial oil capsules designed for this purpose.

Hi, I am trying to solve insoluble problem with glass.

I tried 4 glasses, some expensive sh*ts from ali.

There are 3 types.

1, Glass with frame, which sticks only in frame.

-this Is the worst type, because under the glass is visible stain like oil.

2, Glass with frame, which sticks over the entire surface.

-i have not found the type yet, which has frame, which does not overlap the display!

3, Glass without frame, but without gel does not hold on display And there are bubbles.

So what should I do? Which Glass Is perfect?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
Well, the sad answer is that there isn't a perfect glass. Our phones have a wonderful "feature" called a 2.5D display, which makes the manufacture of proper tempered glass screen protectors -- like on the old flat displays-- impossible.

There's basically 3 options for you, and none are optimal:

Use the official tgsp or a clone. This is a glass with frame variant that sticks across the entire surface, but cuts off a small portion on all 4 sides of your display.

Use a generic full cover tgsp without a frame that is targeted to OnePlus 6. These are guaranteed to have a halo effect. This can be solved by using capsules of oil that sometimes ship with these tgsps. Look above for posts by themarionnette to find a link for a tgsp + oil capsule.

Use a generic tgsp targeted to OnePlus 6 that is NOT full cover. This means you'll end up with a noticeable edge, but no halo effect. This solution is the worst IMO. OnePlus used to ship these from their store (for the OP3) but stopped.

A bonus option would be a variant of option 3, and would involve purchasing loca glue and a small UV lamp. For an example video on how that stuff works you can look here:

https://youtu.be/jyRvapJ8Vek

Sadly the slick kit from the video is not available for the OnePlus :(
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] supleed2:
Just moved from the official tgsp to the ibywind one and I love the look of it so far. The black border is much thinner so it seems to line up absolutely perfectly with the edge of the screen. It's not as slippery as the official one which is a bit sad but personal preference I guess. Will update after a couple weeks to see how it's holding up.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] VEGM92:
The border is thinner but does it cover any pixles? Would you mind taking a picture or two?

I ordered the Dbrand Prism last month when it was announced. I today got an email saying that it'll be shipped by the end of Feb.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
The application method looks very interesting. Their webpage descriptions are very vague though. I can't figure out what material this screen protector is.

It seems like some type of plastic, but on the page they talk about combining it with "real glass".
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Please keep us posted. I'm looking into getting the same. Not fan of covering pixels.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] supleed2:
The prism looks really interesting. Seems like glass but with a plastic layer in between so shocks don't reach the phone.

And after a while I think the feeling of thinner borders is because it is about half the thickness of the official tgsp. I can take photos of the screen but does anyone have a photo I can put up so it shows how much of the screen is actually covered? Otherwise it's pretty hard to tell
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
From the website I got the impression that it's simply a type of plastic which, according to the manufacturer, has some of the features of "real glass".

The picture they use for the screen protector also shows the protector bending much more than a TGSP should be able to.

EDIT:

If I'm not mistaken the phone recovery menu shows the cutoff quite well.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] marjanoos:
In Poland we have some brand which produces TGSP (or imports) named 3MK. They have in their offer "hybrid" glass which name is FlexibleGlass. It seems to be connection of glass and plastic but it turns out that it's only plastic. And opinions aren't really good. The price is about 12 euro and it covers only flat surface.

https://sklep.3mk.pl/pl/p/OnePlus-6-Nietlukace-szklo-hybrydowe-3mk-FlexibleGlass/39482

The website is in Polish but you can translate it with Google.

Really, I don't believe that Prism is much different that 3MK FlexibleGlass.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] spr33:
I'd love to get one to try but I'm in the UK :(

With regards to the Ibywind protector - I ordered from Amazon, applied, chipped after a week in one of the corners, sent it back for a refund. Don't believe the hype, it's not great.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] marjanoos:
AFAIK they're shipping worldwide. At least within the Europe.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] spr33:
I got as far as entering the address but I couldn't select the UK from the second address box which I'm assuming is postal address rather than billing address. I'll see if one of the mums at school can help me out.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] supleed2:
That's pretty worrying considering many people have bought the prism and it costs $30. Hope it's more than just plastic, or at least feels as premium as glass
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
I translated the polish page. It has a bit more info on the actual material. It says the screen protector is regular plastic treated with a ceramic coating, apparently reaching 7h hardness. The polish page also refers to glass-like properties, so I agree with [MENTION=4564175]marjanoos[/MENTION] that it seems similar to the Prism description.

That still seems pretty sweet for a plastic screen protector though. Also the application method for the prism looks very convenient.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] marjanoos:
Oh sorry, it seems that I have found fake info about that shipping. You can always write them, maybe they will ship to the UK, it's not expensive (about 3-4 pounds using Polish Post). Or if you are able to trust me, I could go and buy one for you locally (i work near big shopping mall where they sell it) and send to the UK.

Dbrand is pretty expensive brand. For example I have bought skin for OP6 from local guy who was advertising only on Polish Android forum and I'm really happy with it's quality. And the best is price which is a half of Dbrand price. So I won't be surprised if that PRISM will be the same product as that 3MK FlexibleGlass.

But to be honest I've never used that FlexibleGlass. I only rely on reviews from Polish OnePlus facebook groups. Many of the users has been dissapointed. In the other hand there're some happy users. It depends on people needs I think. I would rather spend the money on Orzly or Omoton (which I'm happy with right now) glass but I'm tempted to check.

I could spend 30$ on Dbrand Prism if the product is really good. But I won't preorder for sure. Will wait for some reviews.

The shipping on official 3MK site is pretty damn expensive. I've found out that you can buy the screen protector on Allegro.pl (kind of Ebay in Poland).

https://allegro.pl/oferta/szklo-caly-ekran-3mk-flexible-glass-max-oneplus6-7644635984

It's their official shop there and shipping to the UK is only 15 PLN (16 pounds together). You can buy there without any registration.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
How long did that AliExpress one end up lasting? (The one that included the tube of liquid)
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] linar10:
By buying on the official website you collect discounts. At the next shopping you have a discount of up to 20 percent, after exceeding the order by 100 PLN free shipping. Personally, I only buy on their website,

Registration alone gives a 10 percent discount

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] marjanoos:
Actually I don't remember that I've wrote here about that AliExpress one. Actually I took it off the very same day I installed it. The oleophobic layer was very bad or there wasn't at all. So I've installed Omoton again and it's okay. I got used to little halo effect which is visible while the screen is off. I've used that oil to get rid of that but it hasn't last for long. So I think the oil is kind of useless if you have to reapply every 2 weeks.

I don't think that kind of loyalty program is attractive for abroad customers but it's only my opinion. I almost wanted to go yesterday to buy that Flexible Glass but I've read that it doesn't have oleophobic layer so I don't want it anymore. Omoton has very good oleophobic layer. There's almost no fingerprints at all and if I take my phone from the pocket it's almost clean.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] MoresM:
Ah that's a shame. It seems the only solution for decent protection is to use a borderless TGSP and apply it with Loca glue.

Otherwise you'll deal with the loss of display real estate.

If I understand correctly, the official OP TGSP has the smallest amount of pixel blocking?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] marjanoos:
Atm, I think that omoton tgsp + loca glue is the best solution. It has very thin black borders which doesn't cut the screen at all or maybe only a little (1-2 pixels).

I haven't had the official TGSP unfortunately but I think I will buy it soon.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] KJYap:
TGP full border with barely any scratches at all after 3 weeks of usage, oleophobic coating done amazing job at keeping fingerprints away. Bought from Taobao, 3USD for 3 pieces.

Got the ibwindy tgsp set a few days a go, easy to apply on and all good. Was mounting my poetic guardian case on and it seems like a nice fit. Now a few days later noticed the tgsp start to get lifted up from the screen and forming bubbles beneath it.... Anyone else have this issue or is it just me? The screen protector works fine with the spidgen rugged case but it could use a higher lip around the screen

This part sounds nice. But if this one's actually curved to fit the OP6 without creating a halo-effect, it would be a first. There's a chance, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] scorp200:
Got my grip and prism, I screwed up on my prism installation and got dust bubbles on the edges, but not too noticable so I'll run it for awhile before attempting to install the second prism that comes in the box.

The screen protector does feel more like glass than plastic so it feels nice to touch at least much nicer than the ****ty Skinomi screen protector I had before.

Edit: more photos
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Dungeon47:
Got my prism and installed a day ago.

It looks great. Very clear and resists fingerprints well. In most cases I can't even tell it's there. It feels almost exactly like the display glass and is the exact dimensions of the flat part of the display. No bubbles, no lifting at the edges.

The only downside I can find is the edges. While they look good, the edges are very noticeable to the touch of you use gesture navigation and are heavy-handed. There is an obvious edge that my thumb gets momentarily stuck against, where the actual screen is just a smooth curve. I can overcome this with a light touch, but it is taking some effort. This is not a deal-breaker for me, and I may see if I can sightly buff away the edge a little too smooth it out.

Installation was easy to get exactly right. Their system is a good one. I did mine in the bathroom not long after a shower because it's bright and the humid air means no dust. Make sure to watch the video all the way through once before following along. They included a second Prism just in case, but better to have that for the future in case it needs to live up to its hype, right?

Overall, it's the closest to invisible I've ever seen for a screen protector, and it feels amazing -- except for the edges. If it has even half of the impact protection it claims, it's easily worth the cost for me. Combined with my RhinoShield SolidSuit, my phone feels premium, light, compact, and invincible. I intend to keep my OnePlus 6 for a good 5 years, and this makes me confident it will last.

Prism: 9/10

I've just ordered one - will report back on how it performs. I have an 'OG' Oneplus protector now but it's badly cracked, and shipping of them to Australia is prohibitively expensive.

Could you please confirm that the PRISM screen protector does not leave any pixels uncovered? Thanks a lot!
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] georgiapi:
Two months now for the IQ Shield Wet Install Film and its still good.

I'm hard on my devices, carrying naked in the pocket off-the-job and in the OP Folding case on-the-job in front pocket, and handling it with thin work gloves that may or may not be very clean. I am a factory floor maintenance tech.

Its somewhat self healing as I have seen nicks appear and go away in a day or so. If I put a business card in the cover slot the top edge of the cards will leave a very slight line in the protector which goes away after a while. This demonstrates to me the shock absorbing capabilities of the film.

It never bothers me and if you hold it to reflect the light you can just see a very slight orange peel texture.

A glass protector would have been toast several times over by now and I see more cracked glass protectors than anything out there.

For a few days after the install there seemed to be a slight film of moisture of sort that cleaned off and it may be the adhesive moisture working out.

I would say this is a rough service protector, completely transparent, only noticeable when looking for it. No bubbles. I'm glad I purchased two because when its time I will purchase it again.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] kipue:
I've posted in a separate thread some close up pictures and you can see.

As said above it is exactly the size of the flat part. If you look from the front it is, but slightly angled to the side, it seems to be veeeeeeeeeeery slightly short. It is not noticeable when using the actual device.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Dungeon47:
I left my screen on during installing to ensure this very thing. It is very, very close to exactly the width of the viewable area of the screen. Near as I could tell, it does cover all pixels but only just. The margin is razor thin.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] artiemon:
Just installed the IQ Shield film & so far I am pleased. To me it seems exactly like the preinstalled one that came on the phone. I only took that one off because I wanted to try a tempered glass one. Never found one I liked.
