iPhone 6/6+ Screen Protectors

[brightside]

really not digging the horse shoe cut out.. :/

 

[whiteil]

I bought it at SGD18. Will I get ban because of answering question? Hahaha!

I just realise it cover the LCD screen on the side. I heard some screen protector does not cover the entire LCD, like 0.1mm away from the side.

No lah, not as though you're selling right.

What made you got Data Flex? Do you like it's feel /quality on your new 6/+?

That's quite reasonable for the price no? I remember it used to be very expensive. Is it really fingerprint free? or got smudges?

 

[interguy]

I was introduced to dataflex screen protector by ragnarok95! Hahaha!
The thing I like abt it is anti-fingerprint, anti-glare and anti-scratch!
As my hands are clean most of the times, I really have no idea abt the smudges.

Thanks for your replies and pictures!

Anybody knows of anyone here to paste SP?
For both wet and dry application.

Actually it's not hard to do it yourself, there are lots of videos showing you how to do it perfectly.

I've personally done wet applications on both iPads and iPhones before (front and back) - using Xtremeguard, Skinomi and Bestskinsever. Front is pretty straightforward, no problem with bubbles if u are patient -- take your time and don't be in a hurry; the back is tougher becos of curved sides like iPad Air, and also the iPhone 6 now. Requires patience more than skill. As some people say here, wet application is more forgiving; u can remove and reapply and move it around until u are satisfied, so long as it is sufficiently wet.

I know some of you want a back screen protector to cover the sides and corners too. Based on my experience with the iPad Air (which also has curved sides and corners), it is not feasible. I managed to do it cleanly using Bestskinsever, but after a few weeks, the corners tend to pop up because the surface area is too small and not flat. So if you are shopping for a back screen protector, take my advice:
1) Don't bother looking for one with curved corner protection. No matter how well designed the cutting is, it won't last. Go for the basic flat back and sides.
2) If you really die, die want to protect the corners, u are better off with a slim case, IMO.

Is the wet type for the front smooth to slide or have a rubbery feel and with a wavy suface like the rear?

[palmtungsten]

anyone did not apply screen protector?

i'm abit skeptical about this dataflex for iphone 6..didn't really see any news for iphone 6 even on the official website..

 

[ragnarok95]

Moi using spigen one because i totally forgot about dataflex . When Powersupport is here, will use back powersupport one.

I remember PS has all these ugly cut outs for the 5/5S different holes.

Ok le... at least the SP works...

 

[CPwanton]

Hi, does anyone know whether nubox provide pasting service?

AFAIK, I think only if you buy from them. Most of the people out there do not provide pasting service as if they damage the SP, they won't have a replacement to give you.

Haha, I used to use PS too but I really bth the cut outs.

 

[striker22]

Actually most important is that the cut outs all align properly. Most branded ones are abit too costly and many do not actually perform as well as their demo videos put because they are all edited. My friend works with some screen protectors and case manufacturers and these manufacturers produce roughly the same thing for branded and cheapo ones. They say their business cannot depend solely on the business of a few brands. But sometimes they are told to make SPs to certain specifications based on new research data or when certain new material becomes available.

When he ask them why some brands claim are scratch proof and can resist the whack of the hammer, he say that this is not true, if it were, Apple would have already used such material or bought over the company. He just mention that some tell him to make SP to include certain premium coatings etc for a slightly higher price point. The rest is packaging and including things like a squeegee card, cloth etc to look higher end. Seems quite true.

What you mean? I thought different brands have their own different factories? Also, aren't they companies from completely different countries? Like Spigen - Korea and PS- Japan etc?
You mean they all made in same factory?

 

[striker22]

They are not 100% completely made in the country that it said. They may all get the same base material i.e. Tempered glass pieces and then add certain coatings and packaging themselves.

Of course they are different factories but the technology to produce them is rapidly copied.

How smooth to slide really depends on the amount of water u apply on the SP; the tip is to add a couple of drops of mild dishwashing detergent (e.g. Mama Lemon) into a small bowl of water and then dip your fingers in and apply onto the SP, like spreading butter on bread..
