[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] gottahavit:
put one of these on tonight. I had removed the pre-installed to put on what turned out to be an abomination glass protector from IVSO. This one is softer than the pre-installed but smoother and harder than zagg(crap). Went on easy fits screen perfectly, works well with pen at least for now(unlike zagg). Fingerprint reader is now very easy to use. I may try the AiCase at some point but these work well and I put the 50 bucks(instead of whitestone) into upise insurance, so I'm mostly concerned with performance(pen, clarity, fingerprint is a plus) and at a 2 dollars a piece and 5 min to install, this will do.

That is nonsense. I had tons of plastic ones before and not a single one even comes close to the preinstalled one on the Note 10+

The preinstalled protector is the best plastic one I have ever seen. It covers the full screen, it oleophobic coated and feels exactly like glass. I had a whitestone ordered but after I took the note out of the box I immediately noticed how good the preinstalled one is. I let the whitedome sit in the drawer now.

Also, after using it for almost 2 weeks now I doest not show a single scratch, so even while it is plastic it seems to hold up extremely well.

I also wonder where this can be bought, if they even sell it. Havent found anything on Samsungs homepage and searching for it shows no results. If they sell those for 5-10 a pop I would use them instead of the whitedome.

Also, using them with a Samsung Silicone case and a led case - both fit perfectly to the very edge of the screen protector.

what are you guys talking about !!! this pre-installed screen protector is the best quality i have ever seen and i am not talking OEM ones only i am talking best screen protector EVER!! and this is comes from someone always use CLEAR COAT on his devices

3 weeks with the phone and not a single scratch! amazing job with the fingerprints and u cant even notice its there

whomever pulled it off or using another, its your loss seriously, quality and money
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] GermanGuy:
Totally agree that the preinstalled protector is awesome. I called Samsung support about getting replacement ones if needed. I was told a replacement screen protector has to be installed by a service center since it requires UV curing!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] borisb:
Totally agree. I have no I deal why would someone say the screen protector is bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] magichoward:
I too am impressed. Would luv to know how to buy them later.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] ajsmsg78:
I actually like the stock protector. I always use PET protectors (not TPU) like the stock one on all of my devices and I've never had an issue. The only time I've had a scratched screen was when I decided not to use a protector on my OnePlus 6 and ended up with a gouge in the screen. It wasn't from keys either.

I doubt it requires curing. You can apply the stock protector (it's PET) by using liquid like rubbing alcohol under it or Windex this way you can move it around and get it aligned perfectly. Once the liquid dries it looks perfect. I install all my friends protectors because they like how perfect it looks when it's done and there is never any dust or bubbles when I apply them. You can usually get OEM ones on eBay for a few dollars for five of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] katatonic1:
I went to Samsung Store here in Warsaw and they told me the foil protection on the screen was for transportation only and recommended buying some other protection they are selling in store. I told them what you had written and they did not confirm it. They said the warranty would not be void if I peeled the foil off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] GermanGuy:
I believe Samsung support about the curing process.; you don't just make something up like that. There is something special about this protector. Had lots of film screen protectors in past and hated them all. This one is a film but feels like glass. Totally love it. And, of course, taking the protector off, will not void warranty. It also will not protect the screen when the phone is dropped.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] bayniner:
I agree this is one of the best plastic screen protectors I've used, feels great on my 10 plus and my wife's regular 10
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] katatonic1:
Mine got scratches all over - visible in direct light. Soon or later will have to replace it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] bayniner:
That sucks, I've had mine since release day and it looks great, honestly can't even tell Its their most of the time
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] katatonic1:
So I contacted Sumsung support via chat https://c-contactus.samsung.com and they confirmed that foil is just an accessory and can be removed. New one can be appliedy by user.

I wonder if it varies by country then...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
The Screen protector that comes with the Note 10+ better than all protectors I ever used (and I used a lot of different brands because I can't stand rubbery feeling, smudge, orange peel, bubbles etc..) I think it's even better than the Whitestone because after a while you get spiderweb like cracks in the cheap LOCA they use. I contacted Samsung about where can I buy more but they said that it would not be available in stores it's installed in the factory by machine...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] jonstatt:
It does feel and look good but it does not have the hardness of glass and will develop micro scratches over time even with care. So st some point you will want to change it and then what will you do?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] ssgunner20:
Jumping on the boat of the pre installed protector being great. Feels very smooth like glass. Unfortunately I do have a scratch/bubble in the right center area due to a whack by a salad fork...:mad: Compliments to my 3 yr old.

I was wondering if they sell this one. I may just try other brands. Kinda over spigen one, feels to rubbery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] ep3:
I too love the preinstalled screen protector and best I've ever seen or used. Had whitestone on my note 9 and cant even use defender case cause it pushes up on the bottom of the whitestone screen protector and spider webs will start to show.

Unfortunately I too had to replace my preinstalled screen protector on my note 10 plus because I dropped my belt buckle on there edge of the screen and it tore a small slit on the edge of the screen protector.

I ordered a tpu screen protector from Amazon and it's probably 95% of the preinstalled screen protector quality. Although there are 14 steps in total to install, as long as you follow the YouTube instruction video from the company (LK) you should be fine. I installed mine perfectly.

To all those who still have their preinstalled screen protector on their note 10 I highly recommend you keep that on for as long as you can.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] cldbld:
Gotta agree that the preinstalled screen protector is great coming from and S7 edge, nothing stuck for more than a few days on that phone. Had Note 10+ since launch and still looks good..

Obviously eventually it will need to he replaced but from the looks of it a couple months rather than a couple weeks or days.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
I don't know. Probably will try the amFilms glass protector. The Whitestone is overpriced garbage (from my experience).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] BigMosley:
I just took mine off yesterday, had it on for about 6 days. I started to see scratches on it and figured screw it since I have a SquareTrade warranty anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] xile6:
Looks like we arent finding a replacement.

I like the protector also.

Normally always go with skinomi. Even order one before the phone came, but the oem one feels great so its still in the box.

I am looking for a backup tho. Had my phone 2days before launch and its doing great. But always like to have backups.

Just cant find a protector as good as this one.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
Try the Ringke Dual Easy Film. They are amazing. Dry installation, 100% clear, and they are soft, so they stick to the curves. I used them on my Note 8 and Note 9. They feel like glass and the SPen leaves no marks at all. And you get 2 of them for like $8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
I don't recommend the Ringke Dual it feels like it doesn't have any protection against smudge compared to other protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
I do recommend the Ringke Dual. It wiped clean very easily. As I've said, I've used it on my Note 8, Note 9, and my wife's S10+. Apart from the Whitestone Dome, it's easily the best screen protector out there, and is the best alternative to the factory installed screen protector. No other screen protector is as clear or smooth in my experience (and I've spent a LOT of money on screen protectors trying to find the best one). I've NEVER found a screen protector that's as oleophobic as the factory glass or the factory installed screen protector from the S10 or Note 10, but Ringke is the best available to date.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
I have it on my Note 9 and the smudge doesn't wipe easily it's also doesn't play well with some cases (lifts). I have installed and used a lot of different brands of SPs this one far from best.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
Not sure what the issue is with yours. Never had any issues with mine and never found one better, except Whitestone Dome. My wife loves the Ringke I installed on her phone. She scratched up the factory screen protector at the beach. So I replaced it with Ringke. She gets makeup and grease from cooking on it, and I can just wipe it clean with a t-shirt. Sometimes on hers I have to use a damp t-shirt, because makeup and food grease is so thick and sticky. But just normal fingerprints wiped off easily. Maybe you just have really greasy hands?

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

So what is the best screen protector you've found? Other than the pre-instslled one that is.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
Still searching :rolleyes:

Unfortunately since the curve screens there isn't a screen protector that I can say it's the best. I find myself changing screen protectors brands every 1-3 months. I have ESR Tempered Glass & TPU Screen protectors on the way, will report back when I install it (depends on how much time the preinstalled one will last).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
Return those and just get Whitestone Dome. It's the best of all the screen protectors I've found. Ringke is 2nd best for ease of installation and price.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
Had the Whitestone Dome overpriced garbage. Replaced it under warranty a few times, perfect installation every time. Could be the best if they used quality LOCA.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
Gotcha. Have it in my N10+ and love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
Do you want me to send you the photos of the spiderweb cracks (in the LOCA) that I got after about 2 month of use? Or better yet search the N9/S10+ accessories forums you'll see what I'm talking about. I will admit that the feeling and the clarity quality of the Whitestone is supreme.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
No, I don't need to see your photos. LOL.

I do have experience with Whitestone Dome. I had Ringke on my 512GB Note 9. I sold that one and bought a 128GB Note 9, and the previous owner had already installed Whitestone Dome on it a few months before selling it to me. I used it for a little over a month myself before trading it in for my current Note 10+. Never had an issue with it. Matter of fact, when I removed it before trading it in. There were two large thumbprints on the glass under it. So the PO didn't even wipe it down before installation and it still looked perfect! ?

When I got my N10+ I got Whitestone Dome a couple days later, so I've been using it for about a week and a half. Not even a hint of it lifting yet.

I've read all the posts and seen all the horror stories and complaints. As well as the posts from people who said they had the Whitestone Dome installed for nearly a year with no issues.

All those posts made me shy away from a $50 screen protector, but honestly over the course of a year, I probably spent three times that amount trying to find the "perfect" screen protector. I loved it on the Note 9, and I was able to purchase direct from Whitestone for $41, so why not.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] xile6:
Thanx ill order a pack later and see how they are when and if this protector gives out
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] note4 guy:
I have been using preinstalled screen protector. feels like glass but still afraid is it good enough to protect screen.. Have been reading this post and people shared some good ideas. Still need advice, what's the final verdict ? is it safe to keep using preinstalled ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] joogle:
Is there a good glass screen protector tempered , dont care about fingerprint scanner
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liamR:
I'm not sure if it will protect your screen if you drop your phone, but it will be ok against scratches.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
Yes it is absolutely safe to keep using it. That's the reason Samsung installed it. Will it protect against a drop? No of course not. But it will protect against scratches.

My wife got a S10+ on day one, and they have the same screen protector. It lasted until we went to Florida in June and she scratched it on the beach, because she had sand on her hands.

When we got back, I ordered her the Ringke Dual Easy Film to replace it. When I took her factory installed screen protector off, the screen underneath was in perfect, pristine shape, even though the screen protector had deep scratches in it.

FWIW, I had the Ringke Dual Easy on my Note 9 at the time, and it got scratched up on the beach as well. But when I fixed it, the screen was absolutely perfect. So both do a great job against scratches.

Whitestone Dome is the best, but it's expensive. $50 for one screen protector, then $10 for replacements if you need them.

AmFilm is very similar to Whitestone (tempered glass with LOCA installation), and people here have had very good luck with it. It's $40 for two screen protectors, and it has a lifetime warranty like Whitestone, though I don't know how much replacements are.

I know you don't care, but both of those do work with the fingerprint sensor.

There's a couple threads on screen protectors already. Read this one and those others and I think you'll find your questions already answered.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] pheNOM1101:
I love the stock protector but I got whitestone dome after watching my girlfriend accidentally drop and crack her phone screen. I mean, I haven't dropped a phone in a long time but I'd rather drop 50 for guaranteed protection from drops. The stock protector is amazing but it definitely scratches easily and won't protect from drops at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] koppee1:
I just installed a domeglass for my note 10 plus. The moments after the install, everything worked perfectly, even the thumbprint. But hours later, I had a difficult time registering or using it. I eventually realised I needed to press harder. A lot harder. The Samsung store was selling a tempered glass screen protector that had a visible circle for the thumbprint sensor...that's why.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] maxime4611:
Amazing stock screen protector.

I mean, sometimes i even forget that i've this screen protector. It feels like glass, it covers the entire screen, it's oleophobic.

I was just expecting a little more sensitivity from the S-pen, maybe it's due to this screen protector...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] jtambis6:
The stock screen protector is totally awesome. I didn't even know there was a screen protector until I removed the stock case it came with and somehow I peeled off the screen protector on the bottom corner. I almost peeled it off but somehow my mind was telling me to keep it in place. There was a few bubbles after fixing it back to place, but the bubbles was gone after a few hrs.

I like the feel of it and I haven't encountered any problems with using the S-Pen. I'll keep the stock screen protector on for the duration of me keeping the phone (usually a year).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
While Whitestone is a lot better for drops, I wouldn't call it guaranteed protection. It's still possible to break the screen even with a Whitestone Dome installed. BTW that's what I'm running on my phone and love it.

What sensitivity problems are you having with the S-Pen? I have had no such issues with either the stock screen protector or a Whitestone Dome protector. The S-Pen utilizes a special secondary digitizer that should not be affected at all by a screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] maxime4611:
I use the S-pen with a very light pressure, even when i tap on something. Sometimes it does'nt register my actions. Maybe i don't force enough on it ...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Mr. Orange 645:
That sounds like an issue with either your pen or your device. Mine will sometimes register a touch before I even make contact with the screen.

If I were you, I'd contact Samsung and see what they say.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] DeeXii:
I know someone that accidentally tapped his phone on the corner of a countertop and already cracked their Note 10 Plus. (yes they had the stock film).

To anyone wondering, obviously the stock film is just to protect from scratches not impacts or drops. This bigger these phones get the bigger the surface area is to potentially crack.

While I am super careful and rarely drop a phone or tablet, the times I have and it had made some kind of impact I have always had tempered glass (white stone since Note 8) and always it has protected the screen glass.

I'm sure there are situations where a large enough impact has damaged both the protector and the screen, but tempered glass, without doubt, increases durability greatly. I would highly suggest it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] schvagier:
the pre installed screen protector is not a real screen protector..its job is just to make you feel better that you are indeed protecting your screen..just installed the amFilm Ultra Glass , now my screen is REALLY protected ..gave a try to amFilm , had Whitestone on N8 and N9 good but not Great..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] herpi:
My note 10+ has a one centimeter large scratch, that I can feel, going over it with my fingernails.

I took my "old" note 9 and put it under a very strong light and do not see the slightest scratches. Nearly the same as with my note 5.

Pfff, frustrating. I think I will peel it off soon.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] elfarto:
Have had my 10+ for three weeks, to be honest i did not notice the factory installed protector until scratches and marks started to appear on what i thought was the actual screen. The Samsung Store guy made me notice it. I bought a 3rd party protector but i'm not installing it until the built in one needs to be replaced, i actually like how it feels.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] winol:
Some subtle scratches are begining to appear on my protector, I got my note on sept 11th, I would really like not to change it, as it is most oleophobic I have ever seen
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] mafy31:
Mine is scratched all along the right side because of samsung live view cover.

The cover has hard plastic window and its edge scratches the protector on the curved edge. Left side is mint.

Im rather pissed considering the price of the cover. Samsung sells accessories that are barely fully tested (a bit like their products though, so no surprise here...).

We should be able to get replacement really, shame from Samsung. This occured because of their own cover, this kind of damage should be covered in warranty !
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Reaper1337:
The Note 8 Clear View Cover does not have this issue

It completely covers the front side of the phone

But the note 10 plus one barely covers the right side

I too have these scratches

Maybe it will get fixed in another case revision

I have a spare white one around here, but I didn't test it out yet
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] oneandroidnut:
I replaced mine with a third party and I am going to buy another new note just to get the OEM protector back!!!! LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] winol:
Sadly, a little bubble in the bottom is beginning to form, I think it is due to a poetic affinity case I put on, I already have another screen protector ready, but I will surely miss the outstanding oleophobic coating the factory applied one has
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] SpideRMaN-17:
When i removed mine a week ago due to bubble getting biger day by day i saw a difference in the display (more vivid colours) when i looked at the protector i removed it was yellowish
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] winol:
Well, thanks for the info!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] kparikh82276:
I've put screen protectors on my prior note phones, none of them ever lasted a few months. Either it got bubbles it I just got tied of it. The note 10 OEM screen protector is the only one I've kept on just because the phone came with it and I tell ya, it's one dam great screen protector.

Like it.

But I'm noticing some bubbles. So I it's about time I get a screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] raul6:
Agreed! Real good protector and i'll struggle to find the replacement that will match it even close (mainly because of how well it is applied) once the damages becomes too much to put up with.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] ekerbuddyeker:
It was great while it lasted! It got messy looking so I removed it and I prefer without it.

https://www.amazon.com/amFilm-Application-Compatible-UltraSonic-FingerPrint/dp/B07VKHMK9J/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?keywords=amfilm+samsung+note+10+plus+screen+protector&qid=1574256814&sprefix=amfilm+Samsung+note&sr=8-6 I've installed two of these protectors on a note 10 + and a note 10.

I've used WDG for a few years now and this one has exceeded my expectations and is better than Whitestone imo. The installation is simple and comes with a weighted cylinder that's used when you're curing the glass with the UV light. I've had zero issues with the finger scanner as well as my daughter on her note 10. I actually put the cylinder on while the glue was spreading. I can actually see a circle where the finger print scanner is at and I think this is a recipe for success. I've installed these just after release and they still look brand new. The scanner works great! I can provide footage if anyone is interested. I haven't had any case compatibility issues, feels just like nothing is on the phone. The price is great for getting two in the box. I highly recommend!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] winol:
Mine is starting to show tiny scratches...I think it will last barely 'till chistmas, anyway, I have two protectors ready( for the back included), for when the time comes...
