EDIT: Spigen Slim Armor.

Or there is a knockoff branded version on Amazon made by "Anoke" for $8.
I'm considering this one but it may make it too thick.

If you want something slim, the cruzerlite cases cover all corners with TPU. I just can't stand their stupid 5 year old look.

Those open face covers on this particular phone I cant find one that doesn't pull up the edges of my screen protector. I am gambling with the temper glass protector and nothing else.

I may buy that too just as a precaution. It sounds like it bears the brunt of any hit and shatters so the phone doesn't.

Yeah if you don't like cases, I think that glass protector is a great idea. Never heard of them either before this thread.

Neither had I. Maybe if I had, I wouldn't be getting a new screen...

Dry. These are maybe the easiest screen protector to install of them all. Simply pull a tab removing the sticky backing. Align the bottom then set it and run finger down center and push out to edges. Any bubbles and there are few you push out to side with thumb or credit card. Its not soft and pliable so you can actually hold the edge because its stiff and makes easier. I get mine from xtremeguard when I see a 90% off on Slickdeals.net which is often. They mail out and abut three business days through USPS. I got 3 for like 12 bucks 2 weeks or so ago seem very good quality.

I don't know about "easy." They are a pain in the ass to get lined up correctly by just dropping it on the screen. I think I redid mine like 4 times before it was straight.

I've seen people make hinges with tape, though. They'll put the screen protector on the phone peel side down, line up the screen protector, and take a couple pieces of tape and tape the screen protector and the phone to where the screen protector wont move. Then they'll flip the screen protector back, peel the sticker off, and then flip it back on the phone, and remove the tape. Seemed like an easier way to get it lined up perfectly.

I meant compared to wet or the dry flimsy poly type these are a breeze. This was the first time Id used this type took me about 1 minute and placement was perfect as I stated above per instructions that came with the tempered glass. Maybe I just lucked out. Oh and mine came with a alcohol wipe to get fingerprints off the screen and a lil plastic card to squeegee air bubbles.

Came in today. Great phone. The only thing I was disppointed with is the volume level for music. When I plug it into my stereo I have to crank the stereo volume up much higher than my last phone needed.

i.e. what only needed about a level of 21 on my old phone now needs to go to 42 on this phone. Yes, I double checked that the volume on the phone was max.

Battery life doesn't seem very good. Lost 20% in the last 2 hours doing nothing on it but checking my email. This is after updating to lollipop and doing a complete factory data reset twice.
