Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Tempered Glass Screen Protector - JOTO Galaxy Note 4 0.33 mm Round (1 Pack)

I originally bought the note 4 a year ago with no case and no cover which lead to me promptly breaking the screen in the first week. After that debacle I quickly got online and purchased this cover and a basic Samsung case - blue for it. Last week I discovered I had pressed up against a corner with my phone in my pocket and cracked this protective cover. I was greeted with a myriad of negative reviews and pictures, and even considered the possibility that the product quality had degraded since I last purchased it, but I went ahead and repurchased it because I loved my original so much.1. The halo - does it have a halo? Absolutely! When I first saw the negative reviews stating this I quickly picked up my phone of over a year, and sure enough! It was there, but I hadn't noticed it.The curved edges cause a border along the edge of the glass covering while the screen is off. That's the key factor though - it's only visible when the screen is off! As soon as you turn your phone on the halo disappears, and you are greeted with the pristine image of your lock screen. If you intend to stare at your blank screen for hours I highly recommend you do not buy tempered glass for it. If, on the other hand, you intend to use your phone only when it is on then you will never even notice that it has a halo.2. Protection - This has definitely saved my phone many times. The broken screen within the first week without a protector happened the first time I dropped it. Since getting this cover I have dropped it too many times to count and there's never even been a scratch.When I finally did break this cover by leaning my weight into the corner of a counter with my phone in my pocket there was no damage to the actual screen of the phone. I believe that had this been a plastic cover, or simply unprotected, my screen would have cracked.3. Removal - The tempered glass remained firmly in place the duration of its life, but the removal of it was really easy. Simply get a fingernail under a corner and gently and slowly pull up on it.4. Cleanliness - I was amazed to find my screen still looked brand new underneath of its protective covering. Upon closer inspection I noticed a thin line (similar to where the halo had been, but narrower) of adhesive which remained, but the alcohol wipe and microfiber cloth provided with the new protective glass quickly cleaned it up without a trace.5. (Re)Installation - The installation was, once again, super easy. I just line up either the top or bottom, and then l slowly easy it down the rest of the way. It would seem the rigidness of it prevents air bubbles, as I've never attempted to mitigate them - they just don't appear. I then use the microfiber cloth to press outwards from the center in all directions to make sure it's firmly seated.6. Fingerprint resistance - Just in case anyone is curious, it is somewhat resistant to fingerprints and smudges at the beginning of its life, but as it ages it loses this property and will require regular shirt rubs to keep the screen clear similar to any other screen. I take this as par for the course, but if you are expecting a fingerprint-proof covering then you will be disappointed.Hope this helps!

I own a Samsung Note 4, not because I can't purchase the newer phones, but because I like the fact that I can exchange the batteries anytime they start failing. Since the advent of phones without removable batteries only benefit the phone companies and the manufacturers. By their own admission their batteries will not last the full two years that you would own your phone. So every so often I purchase a Joto Note 4 protection screen for my beloved Galaxy Note 4. My phone is now 3-4 years old and works as every bit as better as it did as when I first purchased it. And what's better is I never have to worry about my battery is going bad. I have tried Many screen protections, and I have found that the jotto screen protector for Note 4 is by far the best, not to mention their return policy is awesome. People who want to purchase new phones I have a few questions to ask you. How thin do you want your phone? Is 2 mm enough? Can you really tell the difference, can you really tell the difference of an ounce or less? I bet you can't. Do you buy it for the aesthetics if you do, my next question is do you cover your phone with a protected device? If so what's the difference how pretty it looks, after all you're covering up with a phone protective device which obscurers the beautiness of the phone. The only main advantage of getting new phone is the technology, but technology as slowed up considerably when his come to smartphones. I used to buy new phones every two years and it was fun, but then I would cover it up with a protective device. I finally got smart the Note 4 is probably one of the most advanced phones ever made. And I'm sure Samsung and in my case Verizon would love to see me purchase a new phone, and I have been told buy Verizon that this phone will not make it a full two years before the battery can no longer hold a charge. That's their words not mine. If you don't believe me ask them if you can get a insurance covering the battery for the full two years. Of course you can always add on a "battery" that will double the thickness of the phone. But in most cases there goes a reason why you purchased it. Do yourself a favor if you own a Note 4 baby it! It it deserves it buy yourself a new screen cover, and yes purchase a protective device for it. The phone will work like brand new and will look brand-new also. All the phone companies that make the argument about how thin the phone is how light the phone and beautiful the phone is, is irrelevant since most of us put are phones in cases. My suggestion is by a beautiful case.
