Accessories Galaxy Note 8 glass screen protector options

Thanks for that. I left a message on Amazon and it was answered immediately. They answered that it is compatible with the Otterbox Defender!

That's great, now you can also give a try.
My advice is to watch the installation guide several times before attaching. Might be a bit difficult for the first time. Good luck.

I received the Gobukee yesterday and I have it on now. The installation wasn't too bad but you were right, the video needs to be watched because it doesn't really apply like the less adhesive ones. I have to admit that the sensitivity was really good and the fit is okay. My issue is that the adhesive wasn't quite enough on the edges. I think that once they fix that, they will have a great product. It's only been a few hours, but so far, no other issue with the case (Otterbox Defender).

I have been rolling with either my S Cover or my Spigen clear case (with kickstand) but with either case, I never used a screen protector. Last week I picked up a really small gouge in the screen so I opted for the Techmatte 3D curve screen protector purchased from Amazon. Good price, very easy to install, and very easy to register your purchase. I am very satisfied with this protector so far.

After using the Techmatte 3D curve screen protector now for a week, I have to say I am neutral on this protector. I have to use more force when touching the screen and the screen pops around the top 2 corners when I press down there. Touch sensitivity is completely due to the protector but issue with the corners I feel may be a result of the Spigen clear case that I am currently using.

I have been scouring the internet for the best screen protector for the Note 8 (that isn't the Whitestone Dome Glass) and have found mixed reviews on many products. Just a disclaimer I will be using the OtterBox Commuter case for this device. Just got the Note 8 for Sprint and wanted to see what the forums had to recommend.

Hi,

I used Zagg. I liked the clarity. What I didn't like was what it looked like as it cracked a lot. :). Very brittle.

I've been using a Zagg Glass Curve screen protector since I purchased my N8 new. I agree that they do crack on occasion, but with their lifetime warranty, it's easy to get a replacement. Which, BTW, I've now done four times (so, I'm on my fifth screen protector in a little less than two years). To get a replacement, you log into their website, click on their "Get a replacement" link, fill out the info, and a replacement is on the way. Once the replacement arrives, there's a return envelope in the package where you place you're broken screen and mail it back to them. You pay shipping costs, which are about $10, but you get a new protector in the process. The screens aren't hard to install, so that's a plus. Also, I've not had any "edge" or other usability issues involving the screen in regards to phone functionality.

I've also been using a Spigen case on it since new, which has protected the rest of the phone. I'm not careless with my handling, but have dropped it a couple times. I've never scratched or dented the phone in either situation (one of which was on very rough concrete and had me a bit worried), but one of those drops did crack my Zagg screen protector.

I've been very happy with both products and would definitely buy them for my next phone.
