I would tell you but I've this annoying bug on my screen that I cant get off. It's making me nuts!
We have Nexus 7 Protectors as well by the way.
Will you be releasing full frontal protection anytime in the near future? For the screen protector of course.
I'm just looking for the best screen protection to complement the otterbox defender I'm using. I'd like to pop its plastic screen out since it's in all honesty an awful screen protector.

Dammit! Really? Just ordered this on amazon because I'm looking for a protector that feels like I have nothing on and this seemed extremely promising. The other two main glass screen protectors on the market, Xgear and Spigen, seems to be having issues with theirs so went with this one but... We'll see once it comes. I'll try to post some pictures and and a review.
Just bought this and have to say I am somewhat disappointed. Protector only cover the display area and I understand some of the other protectors out there are the same way but this one is even smaller, only the rectangle area of the display. It leaves all other section of the glass exposed. From the way I dropped my phone and broke the screen last time (near the center butter) this protector will not to much good in preventing that type of damage. Also, it's been couple of days now and still seeing some rainbow effect. Otherwise, it does feel smooth but not as good as what I was looking for. Will try the iFeel glass protector and see.
This protector does look interesting, but they haven't researched properly, most phones all have a whole front made of glass, so it's rather disappointed that this only covers just the screen and leaves out the other part.
May be they will rethink and bring out a second version with almost full coverage.
We fit every phone individually. We use a 3D laser scanner to get the exact size and then we start with covering the entire glass and work in until it sits perfectly.
Samsung devices have curved glass which means any kind of protector will peel at the edges. The S3 actually is curved the most out of every Samsung we have done. We've sold quite a few for the S3 and people have been very happy with them. The Galaxy Nexus has a curved screen also but not as severe. We can cover 90% of it. It's a screen by screen determination.
Trust me if we could fit it on more of the screen we would in a second.
On our non Samsung devices we cover the entire screen.
Also you won't find any other protectors that can do this - https://www.facebook.com/DbaCases/videos

I won't comment on what the protector can do, thats what I like about it, but i'm sure you can extend the coverage upto the the ear piece and the button areas, i'm sure this is possible without any lifting, when compared to most edge to edge coverage type.
I will send an email off to our team that cuts them and see if we can do a larger cut and let you know.

It does feel smoother than glass. I don't know why he said it wasn't good enough.
The fit is as he described - it covers the display so there is no peel.
Let me know your impressions when you get it.

It only covers the display because otherwise it will peel. We did testing on it extensively and re-cut it until it stayed on perfectly.
Do you see the rainbow with the screen on or off?
You are looking for smoother? This is 20% smoother than glass.
Is it the size that mainly bothers you?
Scott
Ok I have to admit there is a rainbow hue when it's off but I don't care it's off.. What I care about is there a hue when the phone is on? NO it does not have one so I did not care about this as my original screenshots show.
Second to complain about it just covering the glass portion when I distinctly said in my review it is only about a mm larger than the screen really makes no sense if the review was read you would of expected that as well as the close ups you can distinctly see where the edges of the protector is I did close ups just for that purpose.
Nobody should of if they read my review been upset about the screen just being covered with barely any overlap as my pictures were very closeup and my description explained this also. The protector is very smooth and does just covers the screen area as stated specifically so if you were not going to be happy with just that much coverage than should not have purchased it I gave a good detail review with pictures to help people not make a mistake in there decision to purchase.
I expect the hue is probably and effect like a prism from the chemical when the screen is dark behind it the light reflected back is probably split a little bit causing the prism hue. What I worry about when I put a screen protector on is smoothness, strength, and bubbles that maybe left behind. If no distortion when screen is on than I do not care.. and I have not noticed any distortion with colors or the picture with the screen on.
Thanks for the response.
Mine has the rainbow when it's off also - who cares. Call it a feature.
We have third party tested it and it's 20% smoother than glass. However I am not the manufacturer and I do not have permission to post it. I can assure you I've seen the results.
I like to get customers what they want so I've already asked them if they can extend the size. I should hear back shortly but they will probably want me to test it. I already had them modify the Galaxy Nexus one so they will try whatever I need.
I may just get a few and send them to you guys to test and give me your impressions.
That sounds great. Be cool if someone had an old cell phone they don't mind trashing so they can demonstrate to themselves how strong this protector is. If I had one I would do that test so it would be a completely unbiased unrelated to manufacturer of the product test for those that are concerned about it like ScBlacksunshine.
Follow-up questions!
Anybody with a full-cut:
How is swiping from the edges? Do your fingers get caught on the screen protector?
Anybody with a DBA Thin Grip (DBATG)
How is swiping from the edges? That is, how high is the lip? Can you swipe readily every time or once in a while, you get caught by the case?

Also, what is the return policy? I imagine for screen protectors there isn't one once its been applied, but what about cases? I didn't find anything on the website.
Is this the "full cut" I received today direct from dba's website? Waited for this new cut before I ordered; and avoided Amazon so as to not chance it and this is what I got. There is absolutely no edge of the glass protection.

The 2nd protector I got in my order of 2 units isn't even a pre-cut protector, just a sheet of the material cut like a sharp square?!

Not happy so far... Will be emailing Scott on these issues. Ordered on 10/21 received today.
The Armor Suit I have on my other S3 is a perfect edge-to-edge protector.
