Use a case with raised lip that doesn't easily get dislodged.

Having tempered glass will of course will be great but at the end of the day, there's only so much that a <0.33mm piece of glass can do to protect your phone.

So much price different. I thought price shall be standardized throughout the states.The SC at Sarawak Kuching here charged me at about 1200, including GST.

Didn't get any tempered glass protector?

Nope. Tempered glass is almost impossible to nicely seal onto the edge screen.

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Jun 8 2016, 01:42 PM)
Based on my CSI on youtube, other forums etc.. my purely theoretical findings are:

Tempered glass

- Definitely a no-go as the air gap between the glass and screen will affect touch sensitivity. Also if phone is immersed in water, water will get into the gap.

Screen protector

- There's some that claims 9H scratch resistance blah blah blah but at the end of the day, its all bullshiat. PET material is PET material... no matter what coating you put on top of it... its still what it is and scratches more or less the same. Chicken with makeup also will never be phoenix.

In short, my pick will be Spigen Curved HD simply because of the area circled in red. I'll get to why in a moment.

[attachmentid=6796483]

Case

TLDR version: If a case is easy to put on and remove... then it's probably not very good protection. If a case is compatible with PET screen protector that covers the whole glass, then its probably not very good protection too.

IMO is that the best screen protection for the S7E in addition to the corner...is a case's raised lip. The higher it is... the better the chances at the screen not hitting the floor.

[attachmentid=6796709]

Equally if not more important, is how tight the corners clips onto the phone.... especially important for the S7E since that's the only place it can clip on.

If it requires some force to clip the case in place... it's will also lift full coverage screen protectors but it also means that it will require the same amount of force to dislodge it when your phone falls face down!!

Hence there's where the spigen curved HD screen protector comes to play. The circled area is not covered with SP... nothing to lift... can fit the tightest fitting case on it.

If you think about it.... those cases with good reputation for protection like Speck and Otterbox are generally pretty hard to put on.

As to which case, it depends on how much thickness and wideness (affecting one hand operation) that you can tolerate.

Currently I'm using spigen ultra hybrid as a thin case for everyday office use and neo-hybrid when out with the kids.
