SAMSUNG Galaxy S24 Ultra Anti-Reflecting Phone Screen Protector, Front Display Protective Film Shield, Anti Scratch Protection, Dustproof, US Version, EF-US928CTEGUS, Transparent

*updated 5-15-24* Made it 5 stars. I SMACKED my phone screen with a very large and heavy crescent wrench on accident and the screen protector ate the entire blow. it left a pretty sizeable "rip" on the protector but there wasnt a scratch on the actual screen. Instantly bought another one no hesitation.If you follow instructions and go slow to make sure you get the screen spotless all the bubbles out AS you apply it, it's easily one of the best protectors I've had. I was skeptical at first because the price and anti reflective claims but I didn't want to risk any compatibility conflicts.The fingerprint scanner works flawlessly and super fast with the protector on. (Cheapo version I used basically made it useless)It maintains the awesome antireflective screen the s24 ultra has by default. (Cheaper temporary one negated this quality)Despite being a "film" it feels like an extension of the built in glass display, no mush. nice and hard/tappyIt's literally difficult to put smudges and fingerprints on the screen with this on it. Not sure if it's a coating and if it will last but it's a very welcome feature.I REALLY think Samsung should be doing this at a factory level still and because it's not the easiest to apply I have to give it 4 stars. If applied correctly it's outstanding though.

If you're like me, you went for this antiglare because you wanted to avoid any potential issues with the fingerprint read and loss of the anti glare feature. Well, you'd be making a huge mistake. This was a complete waste of money.The tiny piece of plastic junk that holds your phone doesn't anchor or stick to any surface, so it's essentially useless aside from trying to line up the protector. Which is also pointless because this protector doesn't extend equally on both sides, nor does it actually go edge to edge. Leaving the entire edge exposed.And perhaps the worst part was the films design itself. You have this permanent crease line right down the center horizontally that you can't buff or scrape out no matter what you do. To get it high enough back to peel off you immediately make the crease worse. No matter how methodical I was.Sticker sheets were weak and didn't grip much of anything, either.

This screen protector was very easy to install and doesn't interfere with touch sensitivity, fingerprint scanning, or pen use. It also handles reflections well, making the screen easy to see outside mid-day, and is resistant to your fingerprints getting stuck on the screen.Although I haven't had it long enough to test how scratch resistant it actually is, I can say that after a month of use, I haven't noticed any micro-scratches.Also a side note since I saw a few complaints online about it's protection. It's not a glass screen protector, it's more made to protect against scratches while not messing with any of the functionality. With glass, you're trading functionality for more protection.

Glad it came with two because, despite being extremely careful, the first install ended up with a few specs of dust I couldn't live with. Second install was flawless. Expensive loss but whatever.Only downside otherwise is that it doesn't cover the entire screen. NOW WAIT, I'm normally the type of person to read that and assume people are overreacting, and to an extent, they are. It's case compatible, but this it a LITTLE too much spare room to be "case compatible", to the point that I agree, it doesn't cover the whole screen. HOWEVER, it's not noticeable and I'm not one of the people who uses the .01 inches of either side of their screen (who does? That's strange), so it doesn't impact use at all for me.I did have to re-registered one fingerNow, for the good parts, and holy crap is it good. This thing is ridiculously anti-reflective. It's not slightly, it's day and night. Granted, I didn't use the phone without some sort of protector, so maybe it's way worse than the bare phone, but it's miles ahead of the glass protector I had. I put on the glass protector as soon as I pulled my phone out of the box. A week later and here I am installing the Samsung one because I loathed the glare of the glass one. It made the phone just obnoxious as I was essentially staring at myself 90% of the time in ANY lighting. Only time I didn't was when I was in a room with all the lights off. Forget that, this is the solution! I'm baffled at how good it is! To the point where I'm actually looking for the reflection and it just isn't there. 10/10 for thisTL;DR- install was meh, even with a video and patience, I messed up the first one- doesn't cover the entire screen, even less than a "case compatible" one, but not enough to be worried or care much- had to re-register one of my thumbs- holy mother of anti-glare, this is amazing. It's beautiful! Would absolutely recommend4 out of 5 for the small downsides, can't put 4.5 or I would
