Never thought I needed an antireflective phone screen until I had one. I have an Iphone 14 pro as a work phone and the difference is crazy. Especially when the phone is on my window mount on a sunny day or in a brightly lit room/office. Makes such a huge difference.

I have had a glass screen protector on my S24U for about two weeks and did not like the glare, and I sometimes had to wet my finger in order to get the fingerprint working. You know, i wanted to make a snapshot, and by the time I unlocked the phone, that moment was gone. I ordered the Samsung Anti-Reflective Film and love it! I do not have a single unlock issue anymore, and the anti-reflective film looks great.

@festerofest4374 9 ай бұрын

Thanks for doing this video. I just got an S24+ and have never used a screen protector and was wondering about the pros & cons of the different types. I've never broken a screen (knock on wood!) but as the price of phones keep going up, a screen protector is something I've been looking into and this video was very helpful! I'm looking forward to your follow-up video on the Samsung anti-reflective film. *Edited to add: I think part of the reason I've avoided a broken screen all these years is the type of case I've been using for 3 phones now... over 10 years. It is the Encased version with a belt clip (a MUST HAVE for me) with the mating back cover that slides into the other side with the belt clip. Instead of putting my phone in a pocket where it can bounce/fall out it stays very securely clipped to my belt for freedom of movement, and the moment I want my phone it quickly and easily slips up out of the belt-clipped side of the case. Even when not on my belt (carrying in-hand, in a pocket) the screen is fully protected so even if an accidental drop, etc happens... I have nothing to worry about... full phone protection. I'm surprised more people don't seem to use Encased but then again there are zillion different cases out there so that could be part of it. If the ability to very securely carry your phone on your belt is a priority, this is the best case I've found.

I have been using the Samsung Film for the last 3 phones. It has worked flawlessly and on a couple of occasions protected phone screen from potential serious damage. The film is remarkably durable in my experience. This years anti-reflective film seems to be improved in quality. I definitely dont want to miss out on the anti-reflection screen on this S24 Ultra. It's a feature I love, not seeing reflections. Looking forward to your follow up review!

If your using the finger sprint reader to unlock your phone than yes you should turn on touch sensitivity. If your just using face, pin, or a pattern to unlock than no you don't need to. My S24U doesn't read my finger when using a screen protector if touch sensitivity is off.

@darthkujo 9 ай бұрын

Since I bought the S24 ultra I have been using it without a screen protector to enjoy the anti reflecting feature. I dropped the phone with a case head chest high and the first day I got it and it survived the dropped( luckly for me) after I decided to purchase samsung care+ just in case. Today I dropped my phone it went flying from my hand and landed again face flat! Two take aways: the screen is pretty solid against drops if you have a case and a second is that I. Have use many devices and this is the first one that after a bit more than a month of use without any screen protector the screen has no scratches. I have a busy work and move around the whole day using my phone constantly and it is still looks incredible yet my other devices in the past have gotten scratches really quick with the same use. So yes the screen has improved in terms of scratch resistance and drops. I got the insurance just in case😅.

@Xrystian 9 ай бұрын

I would personally to for the film, i an using the official film for the S22 Ultra, ive seen no deep scratches, it seems to be self repairing because of the way it made (and you can "bend" it if it were to be installed slightly wrong). Also the film would *absorb* shocks better than glas, not saying that it would be better, because i dont know if it would. But I don't notice any issues with resistance.

I hate to say it, but when it comes to tempered glass I go with Dome Glass. They are way too expensive and a b!tch to install for beginners (I'm a professional now lol) but they are great screen protectors. I'm surprised the tempered glass screen protector you have worked with the fingerprint sensor. I tried 3 different tempered glass screen protectors with my S22U and ended up going with Dome Glass because the fingerprint sensor wouldn't work with the others. I experienced the same problem when I had my N20U. It looks like Samsung finally fixed that issue with the S24U.
