Mine's the plastic sheet that came with the phone. Been using it for 3 years without knowing (s10) and only noticed it b'cause my friend peeled it for me. Now I need a screen protector.
What do you mean "now I need a screen protector". The plastic that was on the screen has no impact protection, you can hut tempered glass with a hammer and just peel it off to reveal your screen is perfectly fine
i use glass protectors that have a soft silicon like layer underneath. they require no glue. simply place it in position on your phone, once you get it where you want it, touch the center of the protector and it seals itself from the middle outwards. quite satisfying to watch too. you get the bonus of glass scratch resistance and the shock or impact resistance of a gel protecter and they have NO negative impact on touch. with both working together, less likely to have a rock or something crack the main screen of your phone. over the last 2 years of using them, i have had my phone land face down so many times and always expected it to be smashed, especially when dropped on gravel, but the protecters worked wonderfully. i stock a few spares too so i can swap them out when they get a few cracks. im about to try a gel one on a new phone but seeing how thin it is, i dont think its going to the job.
@BlowJab TV Ceramic obviously but a little bit overrated, If I were to choose just go with tempered, been using it for 8 yrs now and not a single scratch/crack on my phone 😉

I beg to differ, as I have been using UV glue screen protectors for almost 2 yrs on my Oneplus 7 Pro and there's no lag in the fingerprint. As for application, I find them to be the easiest to install and never get any air bubbles after installation.
The easiest? Come on. It's fine if you like them, but don't over sell it. By virtue of the installation process UV protectors are some of the hardest to install. That's just an objective fact.
@@LobsterNoodlesits not as accurate thought. ive had to take mine off of the s22 ultra as i would have to try finger print over 4-5 trys. got sick of it and took it off.
But can the hydrogel screen protector handle being in my pocket while Im working on the floor and roll over and there's a small rock on the hard floor and the screen makes contact with the screen with the weight of my hips and thighs and cracks it? Because this happened to me with an old phone while working on a car and the tempered glass took all the hit. It was so bad I thought that my phine screen was also broken but when I removed the tempered glass the phone screen was in perfect condition.
why I never prefer glass: I got my glass protector cracked very very soon after the purchase. I don't blame anyone but myself though, it's just me being clumsy. I refused to buy a new one, thinking I'd just quickly crack it as well due to my clumsiness and that would turn into a loop of money wasting. So I lived with lots of cracks with very tiny glass shards in them. These shards would fall out every now and then. New ones would crumble and fall out as well. I was worried about hurting my own fingers or someone else's (by letting people use my phone), or maybe even getting them into my food accidentally. Hydrogel protector frees me from all of that, so for me that one reason is already strong enough to choose it over glass. Yeah, perhaps it sometimes sticks off your screen a bit, which could lead to some air bubbles, dust particles or hairs getting stuck underneath, which you have to manually fix. But for me all of these problems are definitely less significant than tiny pieces of glass falling out of my screen. HOWEVER, if your priority is the safety of your phone, well, I'm actually not sure which one is the better option.
Yes you are right My hydrogel screen protector is still good after 3 years of rough use it only got scratches but no cracks even after falling from roof 3 to 4 times And bestfriend of my screen protector is rugged back cover
How can I clean the dirt on the edge of the hydrogel one? (I'm perfectionist what can I do...😭) When I tried last time (with needle/nail) it peeled the whole protector and I needed to put a new one-
I might have said Hydrogel doesn't provide perfect "drop protection" . It only provides scratch protection or may be drop protection from a very low height....
I want to add the glass doesn't really add "shock absorption" it takes the hit for the screen and in some exceptions, it ends up chipping or breaking the screen too. The TPU holds everything nice together. Just make sure you have a decent case for the drops. The TPU takes the scratches pretty good. I have TPU on my RAZR outside and inside and I'm satisfied.
You clearly didn't watch a tutorial for the glue one. It's actually quite easy if you follow the procedures. Firstly you pressed down on the glass, secondly you're supposed to move the phone around when you can see air (the top in your case)
I need just the plastic one, like the original one when the first time you buy the phone. Where to get the plastic one? What supposed it called? I don't like hydrogel since my nail has a bad allergies to it .
Can i put 2 hydrogel on my phone? Not sure but i am having trust issues with hydrogel due it's very thin. Or i put one hydrogel then layer with tempered? As a mom of a toddler, no phone is safe with my daughter 😂
This is a half truth half good story telling. I have done the Loca glue on my last 4 or 5 phones and I will never go back. REASON 1) It is crystal clear 2) Better protection 3) Buy the kit once then buy extra glass,, extra glue and golden. If you follow instructions and are patient you can get an like factory appearance.
The best screen protector as per my experience are the unbreakable matte finish ones. Firstly they dont break. Provide good protection. Leave no finger prints. Are good at protecting scratches. And reduce screen glare.
It really depends upon the quality of the TPU. The cheap ones feel rubbery while the good quality ones are so smooth you don't even notice they're there.
great info, but do the point of the protector is for the screen not to break, so why buy hydrogel if it can stll break? or does it not break with hydrogel just from a regular fall? and are ALL the hyfrogel protectores curved on the sides? ( i have a curved note 8)
Might have missed this one. All hydrogels are not the same. They come in different textures, like glossy, matte etc, but their thickness is same usually. It does not break from a regular fall, unless you phone drops on something sharp or pointed. All hydrogels are not curved, you'll need to specifically ask for your phone's hydrogel
Loved this video so much. Short and sweet. TO the point. Very clear. Very good english. And summarised the choice for me very quickly. Thank you so much. PS You didnt explain why to avoid 10D UV protection
Thank you for your nice words! It's people like you who keep me going :) I'll do a follow-up video soon with some more information! Hope that will clear some more doubts
That's a very good question. Honestly I feel like both kind of protectors are same for sweaty hands, but I think that hydrogel stays clear with a little better touch sensitivity.
I just had a hydroge protector installed in my iphone 11. The problem is, the earpiece is slightly blocked by the protector. Is it okay in the long run? Would it not damage the earpiece and/or phone?
uv glue glass protectors once properly applied, is hands down the best you can possibly use for a curve screen phone. literally has no downsides if you apply it correctly. does not have the issue with fingerprints as you described here, in fact is just as fast as bare screen. if you're having fingerprint scanning issues it's cause you've screwed up the application. I've used all three types on my p30 pro which is curve screen, and for the past 2 years I've exclusively used uv, after getting annoyed by the downsides of both hydrogel which is not smooth and peels off on the edges way too easily, and the glass ones with adhesive borders and hollow in the middle, which tend to just fall off in days to weeks, have poor fingerprint scanning, ridiculous glare, and traps dust underneath.
Agreed. UV glue is the best. he did screw up the application process. prep work is most important. and the glue portion must be in the center of the phone and in sufficient quantity vs screen size. also to ready cotton buds in case additional glue seeps down. need a blower as used in DSLR to blow off remaining particles in the glue or surface as well before inserting the glass. never push the glass downwards. let the glue do its job. let it dry for 1 hour and not touch the phone.
The only good UV tempered glass are from Whitestone dome and few other popular brands like spigen. They are ridiculously expensive ! Cheap UV tempered glass are not good. Because i used one and i had a hard time with the finger print reader. it's hit or miss ! And not to mention that I got air bubbles in that UV tempered glass with just more than 6 months. So i replaced it with a hydorgel one and yeah it has a rubbery feel to it but the finger print reader and touch sensitivity is smooth and seamless. Also the viewing experience and clarity is way better than the normal UV tempered glass. So i think the way to go is if you can't afford a high quality UV tempered glass from a reliable brand you can use a normal hydrogel film with a good protective case. Protective cases are not that expensive !
Here'sa quick question... why not use both at the same time? It might sound foolish but I'm curious about the results. Nothing to lose to see if it works. 🤷🏽♀️
Not foolish actually, it works that way but makes your phone screen way too thick that it makes a parallex of image and compromises the clarity big time. Doable but not practical ;)
It is fact that you have to have some experience applying uv glass to your phone. And they can be problematic when not applied incorrectly. After my own try and error I think it is a winner.
Have you ever removed a hydrogel screen protector I CAN'T remove mine to replace with a anti glare hydrogel one.... I've tried every corner Razor Blade ,Picked at it with a needle,finger nails,etc IT'S ON THERE lol I put it on myself...IT WON'T JUST PEEL FROM THE CORNER EITHER>> I tried heat on the corners...Thanks
I agree with hydrogel. I use it more than tempered glass. Tempered glass was always my go to screen protector. But since i work in a hardware store i am exposed to concrete dust alot and always wrecked my temp glass protector. As for hydrogel its good if it fits the phone well.
Thanks for your, " to the point " video! I went from hydrogel to tempered glass. It seems like every time I put a new tempered glass on, my cell would fall out of my lap and onto the ground getting out of vehicle and crack, splinter, etc....also, a couple if there was a fingerprint or smudge on it, it would actually cause issues with my cell lagging. I had thought about some that were advertised to be great BUT they were UV glue kind (thanks for the heads up on that). I do still worry about that one time where it lands just right to crack the lcd because like you said, the hydrogel just isn't as thick
Bullshit about the UV and fingerprint sensor. The glue actually HELPS so much with the fingerprint sensor. Normal tempered glass are the ones that doesn't work with biometric fingerprint scanners
I installed hydro gel today and it feel good to the fingers, really soft I installed glass protector and after 2 days the corners chipped from the car keys
I like UV glass because if you have scratched screen the glue will fill all the scratches and it will look like a brand new phone. Also when applying the glass you need to tilt the phone and the glue will slowly flow to that direction, you just need patients. First time for me was very successful with this method. Also make sure you don't have dust on screen before applying it. To be honest I have UV glass and Hydrogel and my fingerprint still works good.
@@ZeeForceGaming fiber glass? Does that exist? >.< I've had the one plus 3T and just now it has a crack and some purple pixels but it's endured all of the times I've dropped it! Of course the case is important but I do want a rather strong protection for the screen on my new one plus 8pro....
@@filoshi ahh that's so sweet. I think he's ribbing you. I personally find sheet steel a very durable screen protection. Just a bit hard to see through that's all.
Thoughts? - 🤔Why not Hydrogel first, then a glass layer (or glued glass) over. At least if the topmost protector cracks, it will be easy to peel it all away from the actual screen - if it remains intact.
Bought a hydrogel screenprotector of 30 euros, accidentally dropped it today from out of my pocket, and now my screen has a butterfly cracked screen.. never had these issues with tempered glass ffs.....
So just because you don't know how to apply uv glass it makes it bad? I have been using uv glass for more than 2 years now.And it has saved my phone screen where I have dropped my phone multiple times. I always apply it my self without any issues and without any bubbles. And fingerprints always works.
Good question. Hydrogel is made of TPU. But with high ductility and self repairing ability for micro-scratches. A good hydrogel protector will not show micro-scratches, but a common TPU protector will show.
🧐Tempered glass may break but will it damage display, tpu film is not a glass so it doesn't crack so may display will also not be effected by that🤨. But Tpu Film is good shock absorber but tempered glass is stronger 💪 & because of that should I prefer Tpu film or 0.26mm thickness tempered glass is better than that🤔 .this is my sandheh.🤔 ഓം അമൃതേശ്വരെ നമഃ 🙏🏾 🙏🏿 🙏 🙏🏽 🙏🏼 🕉️
The hydro jell screenprotector makes the screen look oily and a bit blurry which looks very bad. The uv screen protector is best if applied precisely and the in display fingerprint also works.
Bro I have the same phone s20 ultra with the same dbrand skin the teardown skin can you PLS send a link to buy a screen protector that you use for this phone s20 ultra
"UV glue tempered glass is not recommended for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and similar phones due to the risk of glue seeping into the ear speaker, causing voice issues, and resulting in blurry front camera images. Please be aware of this issue. A Samsung Customer Service executive suggested using a membrane guard without UV glue instead."
Ye to khudi apny apny protectors ko sb ne naam dye huy hyn.. 2.5D kk bjaye 9D best hy quality me.. Or hydrogel sb se best hy agr screen kk display quality achi chahye. 9D is tough and hard. Hydrogel is smooth and almost equally protective
Don't buy the glue one very nasty to remove after it dries and also lot of dust sticks to the corners because of the glue while drying. It'll make your phone look cheap and imperfect.
Plastic/TPU is the best screen protector, it doesn't break & easy to apply & it's very cheap. Tempered glass is the worst, it breaks easy even when applying or if gripped hard by the car holder & it's expensive!
I tried that temper glass one and OH BOY NEVER AGAIN! Good luck trying to remove the part where the fingerprint sensor goes! That piece did not come off until I used a hair dryer on that area and scratched it off with a credit card... Hydrogel all the way! Much simpler!
I dropped my S10 last night and good thing I had a tempered glass protector but this hydrogen looks tempting to use. I rarely drop my phone so it should work fine.
OMG a Best Buy sales person just sold me the hydrogel one saying it’s WAY more protective but it looks like it’s just plastic holding it together if it shatters, I paid $20 for it I really want a refund now. I thought she meant it’s thicker and softer. What a scam 😤 does anyone know if the tempered glass would’ve been a better protector for an Apple Watch?
From personal experience, glass protectors break faster than the original screen and when they break the screen usually breaks with them Hydrogel offers somewhat a softer impact, and if your screen breaks with a hydrogel on, then it would've certainly broke with a glass protector on in the same situation.
@@mohamedjaouadi86 Well i have a very slim case. Hand i dropped on cement it was fine just some invisible scratch on the protector. At home never a problem. But im not a heavy duty user but the hydrogel fell better in the hand.
So damn true bruh, I've been using ultrasonic tempered glass minus the fingerprint sensor on my s21 ultra.... factory installed paper is good in terms of touch and fingerprint but last year i dropped my s10 plus face down and that broke my phone screen and happened very 1st time that i ever broke a phone screen lol. S21 ultra equipped with gorilla glass victus but since the last years screen shattered now i have trust issues lol and now I'm looking for a durable tempered glass with a working fingerprint scanner.
Thanks , I got to know exactly what I wanted… never buy in display finger print scanner model phones. As you can use only hydrogel to protect the display which does not protect your phone display from drops and if screen cracks it will be expensive to replace in these high end models. Buy medium budget phones with side fingerprint scanner, use tempered glass, it’s cheap to replace with far superior protection and in spite of everything , if your phone display cracks then display will be cheaper to replace.
ebay. tempered glass, curved edges, works with inscreen sensors, no glue needed, no visual effects and even has the oliofobic(however its spelt) coating. ~$7aud.
Well, no I agree that the UV ones are somewhat difficult to install but it's well worth it. I didn't screw up any of the instalation. I did over 250+ UV installs and every one of them with a success. Even the first one but I did my research. In your case you didn't. 1st - Hydrogel protects shit. Nothing, not even scratches so you ar ebetter of without a protector 2nd - the tempered one with the glue on the sides only looks bad, feels bad, works bad in any case so that is out the line from start (but still protects compare to Hydrogel) 3rd - the UV is the best option. With the glue correctly applied you won't even notice that you have a protector. Oleophobic, durable, protective, fingerprint works (assuming you install it correctly), no washed colors, finger swipes smoothly But I can see that you have affiliate link in the description. That's why you choose the only protector that doesn't protect anything
Hydrogel/TPU is very protective. It may scratch a bit but your screen won't. It will self-heal and repair most scratches. It's chemically treated plastic, the same material used to protect the nose cone on fighter jets. It's flexible and absorbs shock better than tempered glass.
Every test done over TPU/Hydrogel over tempered glass scores way way lower. I understand that is self healing but against no damage vs self healing I take no damage. It will protect your screen only against nail scratches. That's all that's good for I will better have a screen that I can see rather then a protector that looks badly damaged. So, no No matter how your are trying to tell us that Hydrogel is better, it's not
@@Marinalin85 TPU is better in that it is easier to apply, will not crack or shatter, is flexible and bends easily to cover curved screens and is a self healing polymer. It's also compatible with ultrasonic fingerprint readers. Tempered glass can provide better drop protection in severe falls but for typical drops the TPU protectors are fine. Glass does not work as well with ultrasonic fingerprint readers.
Mine's the plastic sheet that came with the phone. Been using it for 3 years without knowing (s10) and only noticed it b'cause my friend peeled it for me. Now I need a screen protector.
Interesting,I just changed to tempered glass because there's so much scratch on it from my nails(they're plastic so it's scratchable with nails)

The best screen protector as per my experience are the unbreakable matte finish ones. Firstly they dont break. Provide good protection. Leave no finger prints. Are good at protecting scratches. And reduce screen glare.
The big problem is that they reduce the quality of the screen image, which is one of the main features of modern OLED phones
imagine buying s23ultra or 15 promax but only use a matte protector
Not recommended for AMOLED and OLED user
How TPU aka Hydrogen ones feel when touched? do they feel like touching over a clear plastic or it feels like a rubber surface?
It really depends upon the quality of the TPU. The cheap ones feel rubbery while the good quality ones are so smooth you don't even notice they're there.

The only good UV tempered glass are from Whitestone dome and few other popular brands like spigen. They are ridiculously expensive ! Cheap UV tempered glass are not good. Because i used one and i had a hard time with the finger print reader. it's hit or miss ! And not to mention that I got air bubbles in that UV tempered glass with just more than 6 months. So i replaced it with a hydorgel one and yeah it has a rubbery feel to it but the finger print reader and touch sensitivity is smooth and seamless. Also the viewing experience and clarity is way better than the normal UV tempered glass. So i think the way to go is if you can't afford a high quality UV tempered glass from a reliable brand you can use a normal hydrogel film with a good protective case. Protective cases are not that expensive !
I hate glued protectors. Try removing it and u'll find out why.
Here'sa quick question... why not use both at the same time? It might sound foolish but I'm curious about the results. Nothing to lose to see if it works. 🤷🏽♀️
Not foolish actually, it works that way but makes your phone screen way too thick that it makes a parallex of image and compromises the clarity big time. Doable but not practical ;)
@@ZeeForceGaming Thanks for the answer! My mind wouldn't stop going around with this theory 😅
It is fact that you have to have some experience applying uv glass to your phone. And they can be problematic when not applied incorrectly. After my own try and error I think it is a winner.
if there are wrinkles when the mobile store applied it should they replace it for free ?
Have you ever removed a hydrogel screen protector I CAN'T remove mine
to replace with a anti glare hydrogel one.... I've tried every corner
Razor Blade ,Picked at it with a needle,finger nails,etc IT'S ON THERE
lol I put it on myself...IT WON'T JUST PEEL FROM THE CORNER EITHER>> I tried heat on the corners...Thanks
I agree with hydrogel. I use it more than tempered glass. Tempered glass was always my go to screen protector. But since i work in a hardware store i am exposed to concrete dust alot and always wrecked my temp glass protector. As for hydrogel its good if it fits the phone well.
Does hydrogel breaks easily if it fall down on the road??
And does hydrogel protectors affect the camera picture quality?
Hydrogel is cuttable? Planning to buy and make DIY for my music player
Oh yes it is, you can cut it precisely with any laser cutter, or you can cut it with a regular blade or scissors, it's thin and soft!
DO NOT BUY UV SCREEN PROTECTORS. They are an absolute nightmare to take off
Thanks for your, " to the point " video! I went from hydrogel to tempered glass. It seems like every time I put a new tempered glass on, my cell would fall out of my lap and onto the ground getting out of vehicle and crack, splinter, etc....also, a couple if there was a fingerprint or smudge on it, it would actually cause issues with my cell lagging. I had thought about some that were advertised to be great BUT they were UV glue kind (thanks for the heads up on that). I do still worry about that one time where it lands just right to crack the lcd because like you said, the hydrogel just isn't as thick
Which feels better to use
Bruh is the plastic sheet which used to come in phone....is available in Amazon?
I have a dual screen case I just want something for the outside bc that's what I've broken before which would you recommend or would either be fine
Bullshit about the UV and fingerprint sensor. The glue actually HELPS so much with the fingerprint sensor. Normal tempered glass are the ones that doesn't work with biometric fingerprint scanners
I installed hydro gel today and it feel good to the fingers, really soft
I installed glass protector and after 2 days the corners chipped from the car keys
I like UV glass because if you have scratched screen the glue will fill all the scratches and it will look like a brand new phone. Also when applying the glass you need to tilt the phone and the glue will slowly flow to that direction, you just need patients. First time for me was very successful with this method. Also make sure you don't have dust on screen before applying it. To be honest I have UV glass and Hydrogel and my fingerprint still works good.
Hey what will you recommend for a xiaomi mi 11 ultra?
I still prepare the pre installed film but I'm struggling to find one 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Is pre installed film good?
So if I drop my phone like twice a day, I should get the UV one?
Apparently You need fiber glass if you drop your phone that much 😝
@@ZeeForceGaming fiber glass? Does that exist? >.< I've had the one plus 3T and just now it has a crack and some purple pixels but it's endured all of the times I've dropped it! Of course the case is important but I do want a rather strong protection for the screen on my new one plus 8pro....
@@filoshi ahh that's so sweet. I think he's ribbing you. I personally find sheet steel a very durable screen protection. Just a bit hard to see through that's all.
Can't find hydrogel for samsung galaxy A51 on the website you shared in description
Thoughts? - 🤔Why not Hydrogel first, then a glass layer (or glued glass) over. At least if the topmost protector cracks, it will be easy to peel it all away from the actual screen - if it remains intact.
i just had mine installed in my Galaxy Note 9. loving it. 😍
Bought a hydrogel screenprotector of 30 euros, accidentally dropped it today from out of my pocket, and now my screen has a butterfly cracked screen.. never had these issues with tempered glass ffs.....
Hydrogel is much better than the tempered glass always used tempered glass until recently hydrogel for the win screen much more responsibility too
Can we just use it together?
So just because you don't know how to apply uv glass it makes it bad? I have been using uv glass for more than 2 years now.And it has saved my phone screen where I have dropped my phone multiple times. I always apply it my self without any issues and without any bubbles. And fingerprints always works.
I have not said that. And sure you're a special case what can I say
Tpu screen protectors and hydrogel screen protectors are the same right?
Good question. Hydrogel is made of TPU. But with high ductility and self repairing ability for micro-scratches.
A good hydrogel protector will not show micro-scratches, but a common TPU protector will show.
I have normal tpu screen protector but it heals for some reason...
🧐Tempered glass may break but will it damage display, tpu film is not a glass so it doesn't crack so may display will also not be effected by that🤨. But Tpu Film is good shock absorber but tempered glass is stronger 💪 & because of that should I prefer Tpu film or 0.26mm thickness tempered glass is better than that🤔 .this is my sandheh.🤔
ഓം അമൃതേശ്വരെ നമഃ 🙏🏾 🙏🏿 🙏 🙏🏽 🙏🏼 🕉️
The hydro jell screenprotector makes the screen look oily and a bit blurry which looks very bad. The uv screen protector is best if applied precisely and the in display fingerprint also works.
Bro I have the same phone s20 ultra with the same dbrand skin the teardown skin can you PLS send a link to buy a screen protector that you use for this phone s20 ultra
is this hydrogel screen protector is eligible in india
tell me please
because you made such a great short video, i will sub and like. keep it up!
Thank you so much for the appreciation 🎉. Means a lot mate.
How much can we pay for uv hydrogel and uv mat hydrogel
Can't we apply both at one hydro after tempered
"UV glue tempered glass is not recommended for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and similar phones due to the risk of glue seeping into the ear speaker, causing voice issues, and resulting in blurry front camera images. Please be aware of this issue. A Samsung Customer Service executive suggested using a membrane guard without UV glue instead."
What if we apply both
Bro 2.5 d glass acha hai ya super glass screen protection k liye plz reply
Or 2.5 d kn sa glass hota or hydrogel kn sa hota
Plz reply
Ye to khudi apny apny protectors ko sb ne naam dye huy hyn.. 2.5D kk bjaye 9D best hy quality me..
Or hydrogel sb se best hy agr screen kk display quality achi chahye. 9D is tough and hard. Hydrogel is smooth and almost equally protective
@@ZeeForceGaming kia hydrogel plastic film glass hai jisy matte b kehty hain????????????????
@@ZeeForceGaming mery pass poco x3 nfc hai isk liye kon sa glass best rhy ga for best display result and screen protection plz respond
Jee vohi hy. Bs quality ka farak ho skta hy. But chz same he hai
But the hydrogel covers get stained easily than glass ones. Got a oil stain which is really annoying
i applied A glass one but ill switch as soon as it cracks .. it really effects the touch screen sensitivity
I love HydroGel so much but they are so ridiculously hard to put on without getting some sort of Line or Bump
I have S20 Ultra and i want to buy liquid screen protector with glue does the finger print scanner work ???
I would say leave the liquid protector... The scanner will work but miss most of the time, since glue is very think between screen and protector
Don't buy the glue one very nasty to remove after it dries and also lot of dust sticks to the corners because of the glue while drying. It'll make your phone look cheap and imperfect.
@@thatdumbguy2800 thank u
What if I apply both one over the another
Why can’t they make an ultra thin (0.05mm) glass protector?
it will be too delicate to provide any real protection i guess
You forget telling why don't use up protector
Can we use both of them ?
Overlapping both will seriously reduce touch sensitivity
Screen protector for galaxy note 20 ultra any suggestions
Plastic/TPU is the best screen protector, it doesn't break & easy to apply & it's very cheap. Tempered glass is the worst, it breaks easy even when applying or if gripped hard by the car holder & it's expensive!
Great video bro happy to see that you are from Pakistan 😌❤️
Thank you so much. 💯❤️ Really happy
I tried that temper glass one and OH BOY NEVER AGAIN! Good luck trying to remove the part where the fingerprint sensor goes! That piece did not come off until I used a hair dryer on that area and scratched it off with a credit card... Hydrogel all the way! Much simpler!
Alcohol disolves this glue like it is nothing.
I dropped my S10 last night and good thing I had a tempered glass protector but this hydrogen looks tempting to use. I rarely drop my phone so it should work fine.
I imagine it helps for face down drops like rubber cases
Do hydrogel ones come it matte and glossy?
Yes they do. But small scratches are much more visible on matte
@@ZeeForceGaming, do the glossy ones display a lot of glare?
OMG a Best Buy sales person just sold me the hydrogel one saying it’s WAY more protective but it looks like it’s just plastic holding it together if it shatters, I paid $20 for it I really want a refund now. I thought she meant it’s thicker and softer. What a scam 😤 does anyone know if the tempered glass would’ve been a better protector for an Apple Watch?
From personal experience, glass protectors break faster than the original screen and when they break the screen usually breaks with them Hydrogel offers somewhat a softer impact, and if your screen breaks with a hydrogel on, then it would've certainly broke with a glass protector on in the same situation.
What if you put a hydro on top of a tempered glass?
Hydrogel is good, but if u get it to near the edges a case ca make it peel
Thanks for the prompt info.
Did you write your own subtitles for this?
Nope. They are autogenerated I guess
@@ZeeForceGaming wow that is some good algorithm!!
hydrogel is the best for edge of the phone
im using it for a year now
For year's all phone glass are curved. And I finally used hydrogel. Not the best but to more esthetic option.
Did you dropped your phone while using hydrogel ? if yes, did it get any damages ?
@@mohamedjaouadi86 Well i have a very slim case. Hand i dropped on cement it was fine just some invisible scratch on the protector. At home never a problem. But im not a heavy duty user but the hydrogel fell better in the hand.
hydrogel is not for drop protection its for scratches resistant
if your looking for drop protection use shockproof case instead
The reason the uv glue didn't work is because it's most likely old. This what happens when the glue get to old.
Right on point video. You earned a Subscribe. Thanks for the video :)
Thank you so much for the appreciation mate
Agreed
Hmmm.... Hydrogel doesn't protect your screen or display it's just use to not let your screen get scratch or so much fingerprint and dust.
Clear to the point and informative
Guys watch video on 1.25x. Thank me later
And you’ll have exact 13 seconds for your valuable research on COVID-19! You’re welcome 😇
Well played bro ..........👍 Super......it is nice thanks for the information
dont apply those liquid. that aint glue those are just to fill bubbles but mostly shouldnt be use. just apply the uv ones like reggular tempered glass
Bro what happens to the glue in long term. If the glass broke and you have to remove it.
The glue removes easily as far as in my case, but only if it was cured perfectly with UV
U just review the comfort.. you not do scratch test that all we want to see..
Good question, but I guess I already mentioned and showed the scratches & their causes, on both
So damn true bruh, I've been using ultrasonic tempered glass minus the fingerprint sensor on my s21 ultra.... factory installed paper is good in terms of touch and fingerprint but last year i dropped my s10 plus face down and that broke my phone screen and happened very 1st time that i ever broke a phone screen lol. S21 ultra equipped with gorilla glass victus but since the last years screen shattered now i have trust issues lol and now I'm looking for a durable tempered glass with a working fingerprint scanner.
Thanks , I got to know exactly what I wanted… never buy in display finger print scanner model phones. As you can use only hydrogel to protect the display which does not protect your phone display from drops and if screen cracks it will be expensive to replace in these high end models. Buy medium budget phones with side fingerprint scanner, use tempered glass, it’s cheap to replace with far superior protection and in spite of everything , if your phone display cracks then display will be cheaper to replace.
that does not help people like me that have phones like the S22 Ultra....we need an option and we have curved screens
ebay. tempered glass, curved edges, works with inscreen sensors, no glue needed, no visual effects and even has the oliofobic(however its spelt) coating. ~$7aud.
me using both: oh yeah it's big brain time
Wait, how are you using both?😂😂😂
I do indeed like this straight to the point video. Thumbs up and subscribed.
Many many thanks mate. Really appreciate it
Well, no
I agree that the UV ones are somewhat difficult to install but it's well worth it. I didn't screw up any of the instalation. I did over 250+ UV installs and every one of them with a success. Even the first one but I did my research. In your case you didn't.
1st - Hydrogel protects shit. Nothing, not even scratches so you ar ebetter of without a protector
2nd - the tempered one with the glue on the sides only looks bad, feels bad, works bad in any case so that is out the line from start (but still protects compare to Hydrogel)
3rd - the UV is the best option. With the glue correctly applied you won't even notice that you have a protector. Oleophobic, durable, protective, fingerprint works (assuming you install it correctly), no washed colors, finger swipes smoothly
But I can see that you have affiliate link in the description. That's why you choose the only protector that doesn't protect anything
Aand, I did all those install over the course of 5years only on my phones, family, friends. Not as a job but a pleasure
Hydrogel/TPU is very protective. It may scratch a bit but your screen won't. It will self-heal and repair most scratches. It's chemically treated plastic, the same material used to protect the nose cone on fighter jets. It's flexible and absorbs shock better than tempered glass.
Every test done over TPU/Hydrogel over tempered glass scores way way lower. I understand that is self healing but against no damage vs self healing I take no damage. It will protect your screen only against nail scratches. That's all that's good for
I will better have a screen that I can see rather then a protector that looks badly damaged. So, no
No matter how your are trying to tell us that Hydrogel is better, it's not
Aaaand I can't see anywhere that the nose cone are made or protected with this
@@Marinalin85 TPU is better in that it is easier to apply, will not crack or shatter, is flexible and bends easily to cover curved screens and is a self healing polymer. It's also compatible with ultrasonic fingerprint readers. Tempered glass can provide better drop protection in severe falls but for typical drops the TPU protectors are fine. Glass does not work as well with ultrasonic fingerprint readers.
