I have not tried the clear one but people who have used the original tgsp swear by it. I, personally had a trouble installing (could not get all the bubbles out) and hence settled with Omoton. My installation issues could be related to my own fault (although I have installed tgsp on curved displays including S8+, S9+ w/o any issues) or it could be the first batch of tgsp had some issues which might had been corrected later on. I really don't know, so I'll say user's error. The quality of original tgsp is excellent in terms of material, craftsmanship, and even the black border appears to be little skinnier as compare to Omoton. Omoton, material is probably a notch lower than the original tgsp but I was able to install it w/o any difficulty. So for me, Omoton worked, your mileage may vary as some folks had harder time installing Omoton as well. You just got to try and find your niche brand. Good luck!
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Thanks buddy. Just checked on Amazon and it's not available in Canada. That's weird, I guess I have to learn to be very careful with my phone...

BTW, does Omoton TGSP has adhesive on the whole screen or on the edges only?

Just came from galaxy s9+. I used to have there by far the very best TGSP - Whitestone done. What's a great thing. I wish they will produce their glass for OP too
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
Yes, Whitestone is the best one for S9+ albeit very expensive. Omoton is full screen adhesive and you will still need clear fluid to fill the side gap as mentioned previously.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
What I'm thinking - other day I found 100% optically transparent adhesive in Amazon, which I believe can be used for any TGSP. It cures under UV light, exactly as Whitestone does. Hmm, what do you think?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
As long as you get the right viscosity of Loca adhesive, you should be good to go. You may want to experiment on a cheap tgsp before putting on the screen. Check Aliexpress, the stuff is cheap there but may take few weeks for delivery.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
So, brand name of that adhesive is Loca? Thank you.

I also have a tube of adhesive from Whitestone since my S9+ days. May be I can use it as well. But definitely I need to look at Loca thing.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
No, no. LOCA stands for liquid optically clear adhesive. Just use the left over from Whitestone. Tread carefully.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Oh, OK. I don't realize that's not a brand name lol.

For sure I can use that stuff, but I'll try find non-original adhesive. Now I'm curious.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
Here is a link to generic loca glue

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] rouyal:
So I ordered that tgsp from the video, InvisShield ProPlus from SG Fresh Idea, and it is nothing like in the video. Just a typical cheap thick glass with sharp edges.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] snippem:
You are not the only one had the same experience.

No black borders but non sticking sides and sharp edges.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Harmtan2:
Where can I buy said clear fluid? I've seen recommendations, but I can't quite figure out what it is or where to buy.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Namolas:
He just posted a link to it 3 posts above yours. :good:
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Harmtan2:
So this & a UV light will fill in the gaps?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Namolas:
I've never used the stuff. Hopefully [MENTION] [MENTION=4801738]Gr8man001[/MENTION] [/MENTION] can chime in.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Gr8man001:
I am sorry if I confused anyone. Clear liquid to fill the gaps is like an "oil", no UV light needed.

See Link below as an example

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10p...745.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.31634c4dfZVpV8

Link above was for the LOCA glue that requires UV light and I have NOT used LOCA with this device.

So clear fluid linked in this post is what I have used successfully to fill in the side gaps without impacting the display in anyway form or shape. You can buy practically any cheap tgsp from AliExpress or Amazon (I use Omoton brand but any brand you are familiar with should be fine) and fill in the gaps with the clear liquid/oil. If you try to use this clear liquid, lesser is better. I like the little fluid capsules shown in the link above.

Cons: of using clear liquid is that every 3-4 weeks (depending on your usage and how many times you hard press to clean the screen), you may need to reapply the clear liquid to fill the gaps again-not the entire side but few millimeters here and there. You will be good to go for another month or so.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Zakkoholic:
Sorry, but I have to disagree with this.

I received mine yesterday.

It's not any thicker than other glass screen protectors and it was extremely easy to install.

Installing was much easier than any other protector I have tried.

It also fits well together with my case.

All sides stay nicely glued to the phone screen.

From my experience I can only recommend the InvisShield ProPlus from SG Fresh Idea.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] snippem:
Then they must have send me something totally different compared to yours.

Had ordered 2 clear ones sgs fresh idea pro plus with no black borders tried them both and had air under the sides.

But if look at their advertising with a YouTube video it works.

Thickness I do no care if it works I am fine with it.

Guys, I just wrote a message to Whitestone Dome encouraging them to start producing TGSP for oneplus phone. I guess now people will do the same, more chances we will get the very best screen protector for our phones.

Gets the link

https://www.whitestonedome.com/contact-us/
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Zakkoholic:
I can only say mine installed exactly as shown in the movie.

I wiped the phone clean, put the protector on and pushed it down.

Some very small bubbles were visible at the bottom but after applying some pressure they were all gone.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] TheNetwork:
What's a good screen protector to use with a case that has a more heavy duty (thicker) lip? My skinomi worked well but I dropped my phone on something today and the screen protector ate **** to save the screen. It's still protective but there's a big ugly mark on it now where the adhesive got messed up and the film got cut. The application of those and how they kind of over-stretch annoys the hell out of me though, so I don't want another skinomi.

Tempered glass or plastic, either way.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
I figured I'd update on my experience with the omoton tgsp since I've had it on for close to two months. I stand behind my original comments that this is as good if not better than the Oneplus tgsp. Went on easier for sure. After two months it still looks great. Still 100% adhered to the screen. No problems on any edges. I'm extremely happy with this sp and I would recommend it.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] annie764:
Can you tell us how the borders are and whether they cover part of the screen? (Pictures of the borders would be great!)
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
It's pretty good. I can turn far enough to one side or the other and the border from the wallpaper disappears because of the thickness of the SP and it's black border, but nobody is going to be using their phone like that so that shouldn't matter.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Harmtan2:
I'm stoked for you on that. Mine did not install like the video. It was slightly shorter than the display & halo'd around the edges pretty bad.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] annie764:
Nice! Do you use some app to resize the phone screen? Or was that app just coloring the border?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] TheNetwork:
Considering the app has settings for border highlight... gonna go ahead and guess it was the app
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
Yeah I just installed that app so you could see the borders of the screen clearly. There is a link in our themes/apps section for it.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Just to make sure I've got you right. This tgsp did NOT hiding anything on the screen if to look straight?

Do you care to share the link where to buy it? I cannot find it on Amazon neither in Canada neither in US
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
eh I can't say zero cut-off.... The clear area of the screen protector appears to be exactly the size of the phone screen. Therefore, if you don't get this thing on PERFECT you might lose a few pixels on one side or the other. Mine for example is off a few pixels to the right. It only bothers me because I'm a perfectionist, not because it hinders my phone experience.

Currently unavailable! so I guess there's not point in continuing discussion... (They've moved on to the 6T?)

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
I'm perfectionist as well, so you my pain:) but IF to get it right, otherwise it's perfect, right? Where you've got it? Seems this tgsp disappeared from everywhere
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
You're right! I updated my post above. I could only find one for the 6T (which comes with an alignment tool!). When I looked back at my past order it says it's not available. Good thing it was a two pack. I still have one extra just in case. Unfortunately that doesn't help you guys though.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
That's sux big times, but I guess it is what it is. I need to be careful with my phone.

Really stupid question. I still missing the point why the heck the vendors are using those black burgers. I can see the point of doing that when the addressee is on the edges only. But if adhesive is all over the glass, why you need these borders?

Thank you for your help,buddy:good:
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
I don't know this for certain, but I think the black borders are just a countermeasure to the Halo effect the plagued manufacturers since curved screens began.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
"Let's agree to disagree"

Boris the "Animal", MiB3 :)

I just came from galaxy s9+. Over there I used to have the very best TGSP money can buy (Whitestone Some}. Screen on s9+is curved much more than here (in fact, I didn't realize it's curved on OP6 until you mentioned that). But TGSP had nor halo effect nor black borders.

I guess there should be something else involved.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
Yeah there's a reason it cost so much. Unfortunately not all manufacturers put the work in like whitestone. I had one on my note 8.... the only sp I ever had to have on my note 8. My wife still has her note 8 with the whitestone I put on it when it was new :D

They're the exception and not the rule. Most other manufacturers that want to push out product fast and cheap have been plagued with the halo effect due to inconsistent quality. Black borders hide this. Just my opinion. :silly:
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] TheNetwork:

Yes, I guess u r right. How we'll get Whitestone glass for OP7

Has anyone used this protector? https://www.amazon.com/Ibywind-Protector-Coverage-Tempered-Protectors/dp/B07JYL9RLK

It has a 4.5 but 10 reviews only which makes me cautious...
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] b.huss2:
I saw that one yesterday when I was looking around. Ibywind has been around, and I like that it has an alignment tool. It's only $10.99 so not very risky. If you end up trying it, let us know what you think.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
looks cool really. But the black borders, that bugs me...

this one does not have black borders. Had some1 tried it?

https://www.amazon.ca/Oneplus-Prote...07KQRSQ45/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Also, just found liquid thing. Looks cool, but I'm not sure about the level of protection:

https://www.amazon.ca/Liquid-Nano-G...3&sr=8-25&keywords=oneplus+6+screen+protector
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Namolas:
That is what I am using right now. My favorite TGSP so far. Packaging is second to none. Included registration tool is super handy. Its a perfect fit except black border is quite a bit too big and it does cut off a substantial amount of text on both sides.

Not perfect but still my favorite so far. :good:

---------- Post added at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 AM ----------

Anything without the black border is going to have to be substantially undersized to prevent air gaps around the edges and therefore won't offer adequate protection for a "screen protector", IMO.

And it says so in the description "Not Full Coverage"
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] annie764:
I purchased it and it's going to get here in a week. I'll apply it and post pictures and stuff when I get to it!
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
So, the hunt for best tempered glass has come to an end. The posted picture is of invisShield Pro Plus tempered glass applied on my lovely OP6. The tempered glass is thick, full adhesive has proper rounded edges and the glass itself has 2.5D curved side which looks very phenomenal with the 2.5 D curve of our OP6. As u all can see it is transparent so no cutting of the screen like that of black border ones and the width of the glass is perfect and the screen area is fully covered.Since the glass sides are 2.5D so u cant fell when u get on the tempered glass from the uncovered portion. U can get this glass anywhere in the world as they ship it worldwide. you can get it from https://www.sgfreshidea.com/oneplus-6-invisshield-proplus-tempered-glass-screen-protector.html
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
Any halo effect if to look side wise?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
No, no halo effect.

OMYFILM TGSP for OnePlus 6

I tried out the OMYFILM screen protector for OnePlus 6 from Amazon.ca. Generally I was disappointed with the product. The notch cutout shape of the screen protector doesn't even match what is shown in the photo in the listing, and I am sending it back.

Links:

Amazon.ca: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07HD2ZDTL/

This product should not be confused with the "black border" version from Amazon.com.

Image:

This pack is pretty typical in terms of TGSPs, coming with 2 protectors, some cleaning supplies and tape to align the TGSP before application.

I find that the shape of the screen protector is just not that good. In both horizontal and vertical length, it's smaller than the original factory-applied screen protector. It is slightly narrower than the actual visible screen area. On one hand, I think you'd have zero problems with case compatibility, but then you won't actually have all of the visible pixels covered!

Also, I find that the notch cutout is both too narrow compared to the original protector, and doesn't match the the image in the amazon listing.

Here, I have aligned the OMYFILM protector as closely possible as I would like to install it. It is still sitting on top of the original protector. You can see how closely it cuts to the camera lens.

Image:

In this image, I've slid the OMYFILM protector down a bit so you can see the contrast in the notch shapes in this one versus the original.

Image:

Here you see the OMFILM protector on top of the original protector. The original's curved chin is not matched by the flat bottom edge on the OMFILM.

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] lush8:
i had previously already given up on getting a TGSP for this phone but i was racking up too much scratches on my naked screen (i work in construction) so i bought this and i think it's a keeper. i have to say though, the alignment tool is not as useful as you would think it would be. the tool opening is bigger than the TGSP so there will be wiggle room still which means you can't just plop it down if you want a perfect fit. and trust me you will want the best fit you can get because it has black borders.

that being said, the screen is clear, it hides my scratches, and it doesn't have a halo effect so i will recommend this over all the horrible TGSPs i've bought in the past. just be sure to get a notch wallpaper to help you align it better
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Seanc92:
The official tg is best.

So, after testing 4 different screen protectors. Including the orzly. The best is easily the official. It cuts off the least amount of screen out of all the ones I've tested. All of the others had weak adhesive. The orzly was the worst with adhesive it also seemed to cut off the most screen space. Yes the official one is expensive, but I have spent more trying not to buy the official one. I finally caved and bought 2 of them. It has the best oleophobic coating out of all the ones I've tried. If installed properly it will cut off almost no screen space. Mine is almost perfect. Pro tip if you botch the installation with tons of dust, don't give up and through it away. Clear packing tape is your friend. I thought I had ruined mine and wasted $16. I got 90% of the dust out and have a bubble free screen protector.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Bamboo-Toolkit:
Can you even get the original OnePlus 6 TGSP anymore?

I got tired of all the TGSP stuff for this curved screen and ended up getting a Skimoni. Haven't installed it yet.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Seanc92:
Yes but they are out of stock again apparently. Seems to be an ongoing issue. When I first tried to buy some they were out so I just signed up for the email notification when they restock.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] starche_old:
So, looks there are no ways around rather then to get an official TGSP?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] qbanlinxx:
I just picked up the idlywind version on Amazon, and personally I think it's great. Very minimal cut off on the sides, only noticeable cause of my wallpaper. No bubbles, went on smooth and have a backup
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] whizeguy:
10x pixels all around like the other ones. Same same. Other than that,it's a great protector
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] pp8435:
Just bought this one off eBay:

Search for For-OnePlus-6-premium-screen-protector-Full-Cover-Screen-3D-Hydrogel-film-TPU

Really easy to apply, had lots of bubbles initially and they disappeared after a few hours. Cant comment on how strong they are, but great coverage, sticks edge to edge and allows for a case.

Really happy for it especially for 3quid.

IQ Shield Wet Install Film / dbrand Dragon Skin Works Well For Me

Normally I pocket my phones naked, dash cradle in the vehicles, and on the job they go in a wallet case.

I held out not getting an all glass phone for as long as I could coming from a Nexus 5x.

I would love to personally fire anyone who is responsible for slippery ass glass backed phones.

The dbrand dragon skin

rumored to be their grippiest skin is NOT grippy. More so than the glass back OP6 but don't call it grippy. I do like it though. It looks like charred wood and everyone who notices it asks to see it for a look and likes it.

Normally I don't cover gorilla glass because it is gorilla glass for gods sake but after running the OP6 factory applied film and seeing the wear it gets I decided to try a film. I have seen too many cracked and chipped glass screen protectors that people resist to change or take off.

Following the video instructions the install went without a hitch. It came with two but I managed not to botch the 1st try.

All the bubbles could be moved out but for one tiny one up top by the notch cut out but it went away on its own after 12hrs.

I wet my fingers and put a good mist on the screen, and then wet the film as instructed.

Lay it down as close a possible but do not dally around. Go ahead and push out the major air and then micro align to the edges and start on the small stuff. The longer you fool around the harder the bubbles are to move around, hence the one that had to evaporate.

After several hours she had a slight orange peel texture you could only see if you made special effort to hold it to reflect light.

A few hours or so later its less and hard to see, and I think it will eventually go fully flat.

How I managed not to get a spec under it is luck because this is harder to not do this than is said. But I had the ceiling fan off for several minutes and the HVAC wasn't running, so maybe I did good.

I like this combo. It still feels naked but has a wee bit of minor protection, and is somewhat less than slippery.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] jasonrhodes32:
My Orzly TGSP has been perfect for me. Installed it 8 months ago. Not a single scratch or bubble. I installed it flawlessly first try. It cuts a few pixels off all around but that's a small price to pay for protection. I swap cases from time to time as well from stock to Spigen and others. No issues at all.

Have thought of trying other SP's without pixel cutoff but I have concluded that it's not worth taking the Orzly off right now. It has performed well passed my expectations.

Sometimes I forget there is even a screen protector on.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] semiramist:
Hello all,

Thank you for all of your comments. I tried a lot of screen protector but I couldnt find what I want. I am living in Turkey so it is not an option to buy from US sites. Can somebody suggest me a screen protector from Aliexpress? I just dont want to see pixels when I come close to screen.. And for sure I want protection because I am using my phone without screen protector which makes small scratches...
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Jeik:
I used this one.

It has the halo effect when applied but you get an oil capsule to fill the gaps.

However, if you wanna be crafty, you can buy some loca glue ( uv glue) and a small uv light. That glue is used for Galaxy S9/Note 9 tempered glass ( it is liquid/oily till you treat it with UV lights, then it hardens ) and it can most likely be utilized in this case too.

There are smaller and cheaper ones but this UV lamp should be more durable and future-proof ( if you wanna use it again ).

As for the loca glue, I ordered this one.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] anhanh1453:

I hate cases and TGSP, but with glass phones is unenviable. Plus GG5 is easy to scratch.,so again - no choice.

I'll try not to forget to order glass and glue this weekend and let's see what will happen.
