My personal reason for applying SP:

- reduce the wear of the original coating - so that the phone looks new when I sell it as used.
- matte screen protectors making outdoor usage friendly as it reduces glare, very important for people that uses their phone for GPS on the road under the sunny day.
- oleophobic screen protectors can make my phone fingerprint-less when the original coating of the glass has been worn out.

After upgraded to NB4 the latest version Android 4.4.2, there is huge improvement to the phone in term of smoothness, steadiness and battery consumption. Feeling so good to use Note3 as no single lag so far..

NA4 sounds older (or it is really older?)

Either he bought a foreign set or he's on N900 and not N9005

The kitkat update for the note 3 is crazy. My phone feels like someone poured oil on it. Horrifyingly smooth in apps and the homescreen. Even the lock/unlock animation is so smoooooth!! Am loving it although there's very little UI changes as I'm a sucker for smoothness.

Oh yeah, the new thinner font is great too on such a high DPI screen smile.gif

They've optimised it especially the CPU hotplug. The clock speeds doesn't jump up and down anymore.

The option can't transfer to sd will be an issue taking up my internal memory. Waiting for an update to fix that

Hmm, didn't really have a CPU widget overlay so I wouldn't have known of that. Definitely a good improvement. And yeah, battery is more...stable I would say. I dont know, but, I used to feel that when the batt level is below 30, it tends to lose juice so much faster. Doesnt happen anymore. And the phone doesn't easily get hot too after the update. 3G used to easily make the phone warmer, but doesn't happen too often now. The kitkat update is a really nice "back-end improvement" I would say biggrin.gif

haha, thats very true. and the only "bad" thing I can think of is Samsung abiding by Google's rule of putting that new sdcard permission. The phone was amazing before, and has just got amazing-er tongue.gif

If there are more naive consumers are like you , SP Glass makers will be millionaires , maybe billionaires by now since all it takes is a few bias reviews + videos to convince everyone . 
[attachmentid=3880342]
[attachmentid=3880343]

Dropped at the edge of the phones
[attachmentid=3880344]

Dropped face down
All the 3 phones are using Glass SP , premium brand , SGP + Glassview . Friends's phone , not some Google images or some sites with bias glass sp with bad reviews . There's a reason manufacturers dont even dare to claim their Glass SP prevent your phone's screen from crack if dropped .

Is up to anyone to use or not.if all ppl like u think the sp glass closed shop ord

Why dont you make a video of your phone with glass screen protector and drop it from various angles. Let's see if your stand holds true icon_idea.gif
