Screen protector - NOT tempered glass but "old school" film

[crberus81]

How is the texture and clarity of the IQ? I got a Skinomi (with has a similar product description) and personally I was not happy with the stretchy texture and less-then-smooth feel when swiping. Also, it seemed to like clarity and almost had small "webs" when looking at it at certain angles. (not bubbles)

It does have a very slight orange peel effect. You only notice it when viewing from an angle in sunlight really. It's not quite as smooth as plain glass, but it's also not as expensive as a TGSP. Mine is plenty clear. It's the second IQ one I've used. They start off a bit foggy looking but it clears up after a couple of days. Same with any bubbles.

I finally found regular PET protectors similar to the OEM ones that fit the phone well and are of good quality. I got them from here:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/5X-Ultra-Thin-Tempered-Glass-PET-Soft-HD-Screen-Protector-Film-For-OnePlus-6/163161457336?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=462326426650&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

The adhesive is pretty sticky on them so they don't lift off but it's hard to get them perfectly bubble free. The way I get these on perfect every time is put rubbing alcohol all over the screen then apply the protector and set it in place exactly centered (it's easy to move because of the alcohol) Then lightly push down on it and very lightly push out some of the alcohol so you don't see any bubbles. Then wait five minutes and peel off the front layer then lightly with a small cloth push out the rest of the bubbles. When the alcohol dries (takes about 10-15 mins) it will adhere perfectly and there will be no residue, bubbles or dust under the protector.

Hi,

I can't have it as I am in France. I am looking for standard films like original one but I am desperate. Would you mind giving the brand of the films, in order to look for it in stores that will ship to France ?

Thanks.

Hey, thank you.
It says Mate 20 x : shouldn't it be OnePlus 6 ?

Yeah, my bad. :laugh: The OnePlus 6 ones are in the exact same package. I sold my OnePlus 6 about 4 months ago and bought a Mate 20 X. I didn't realize the protectors were the same until just now lol.


Here is where I bought them:

Thanks to your pictures I found a seller that has the same packaging so I ordered 2. Will be testing in 2 weeks I guess. Hope it will fit perfectly like yours.

Mate 20 X seems great !

Thanks !

I personally use 3MK Flexible glass - its hibrid glass. I use it from years, now on OP6. I think its the best option for any phone

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

doesn't work out to be a budget friendly deal at all locations...
in India, it comes to '$5.85 + $9.10 Shipping & Import Fees Deposit to India'

just for a pack of 8!! :laugh:

How does this protector fit? Does it cover all of the visible screen area?

I'm not recommending the standard 3mk fllexibleglass film... it's too small... try arc or max version...
Now I using Ringke full cover
