Tempered Glass Screen Protector

[JDLion]

Has anyone had experience trying out this TG screen protector? I just found it on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/20124743125...49&var=500443570565&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

I was about to buy it but I'm hesitant to buy it for $18 bucks without knowing more about it.

Glad these are finally hitting the market. I just ordered one here for $11 shipped: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Limi...n-Protector-For-LG-G-Watch-R/32255647483.html

O nice, $11 is a more reasonable price.

I'd like to hear from anyone who gets/has one. How has it impacted touch sensitivity?

I've ordered the 2 screen protector pack for $16: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free...-watch-R-screen-guard-for-LG/32254729144.html

Product seems to be this one: SIKAI 0.2mm 2.5D HD tempered glass screen protector for LG G Watch R

http://www.sikai-case.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=325


Hopefully I'll receive them before I scratch my screen!

How did these tempered screen protectors work out on the LG G Watch R? Do they affect the feel, look and responsiveness of the screen?, Do they offer better protection than standard screen protectors? Would you recommend them?

Review

Mine just arrived today. Already installed and stuff:

So far it came with a cool looking tin can with a plastic window on top (covered with a sticker), alcohol wipe, microfiber cloth, stickers to get rid of the dust and to guide the protector on, and, surprisingly, a cheap stylus and a few useless stuff for free.

The cut is extremely exact to a point where I have no idea how I would remove it. So my recommendation is the make sure you properly clean the surface and use the stickers to get rid of any dust cause once it's on it'll be extremely difficult to remove.

Once it's on, it adhere to the screen leaving no bubbles. The feel is nice about as smooth as a typical tempered glass screen protectors for phones. The sensitivity isn't affected, as sensitive as the actual screen.

One thing I like about it is that it gives the screen a little height so it makes the screen a bit more flush with the bezels. It definitely looks as if there is no protector on the screen.

I attached some pictures of what came in the package and how it looks on the watch. Don't mind the Skinomi body skin around the watch.

An excellent review! Many will appreciate this.

So is there any noticeable difference in glare or viewing in direct sunlight?

There isn't that much glare. As long as your brightness is at 3 or higher you can easily see the screen, to me anyways.

It might not be as good as a naked screen but it's the same as if you had a plastic screen protector. In ambient mode you might have to look a little bit harder to see the time in sunlight, but overall glare is minimal but it depends on the person's point of view of course.

The only label that came out of the packaging was SIKAI.

Thanks so much for the review!
I'm wondering, is it possible to remove the screen protector once put on the watch? I mean, if I want, or need to remove it later on (if scratched or broken), how would I manage to do that? (because it seems to adjust si perfectly, I don't really see how I could pry and detach the screen protector without damaging the bezel or the real screen itself....

That's what worries me more.

Honestly I do not know how I'm going to remove it. As of right now, I think the only way I can remove the screen protector is by using the included sticker that was used to guide the screen into place and a pin needle. I think I can stick the needle in one of the small opening and use it as leverage to lift the protector while using the sticker to help lift it off the watch's screen. This is the only way I can see myself removing the protector from the watch.

Hum... I don't like that very much tbh... I have two screen protectors on their way, maybe I should have bought only one after all (or none).

Yea, it seems trying to use the pin you'd risk scratching the screen underneath. But I "think" you're only supposed to ever need one. Unless you have something catastrophic happens, that scratches it. In which case, you'll be very glad you installed it. Since they are not easily scratched.

With the skin I have, there's no real "glare" in sunlight, but I'm concerned these glass covers cause extra glare.

Honestly I dont notice any increase in glare, the OLED is pretty bright even in the lowest settings so you'll still be able to see the screen. As for the protection, the only way i see the screen really getting damaged is if you something pointed hit the glass directly. Cause of the raised bezel it'll be hard to scratch the screen

Is there any gap (even small) left between the protector and the bezel? (where dust could stay, I find that extremely annoying).

Unfortunately there is a small gap where particles of dust can get in, but you can get rid of the dust with compress air. When I try to blow the dust away with my mouth I can get rid of the small strands of lint. I really don't notice the dust that much during normal wear unless I really focus on it. I am a little ocd about dust and stuff on my screen but I can live with the dust on the edge as long as there's none underneath in direct view of the face.
