I have the Samsung Anti reflective film on my S24 Ultra and it's perfect with my Spigen slim armor case. Thanks for doing this video !

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.

Flolab's NanoArmour ONETIME PRO tempered glass has anti-reflective capabilities as they advertise, can you compare it to the Samsung Anti-reflective film?

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 wish Samsung produces official Glass version instead film. The film too much fingerprints

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!

Interesting and informative video but it begs the question; why don't the phone manufacturers fit these screens as standard during the manufacturing process. OK, it will increase the price a bit but so what.
If they can fit film to a folding phone screen then why not all phones.

Great video Jimmy! You kept me from having to do the same comparison. Looking forward to the results! Thanks and take care!

[danielhochstetler]

I have had my phone less than a month and the Samsung protector is already scratched. It has minor scratches all over it from wiping it off. I use a clean (new) micro fiber and glass cleaner to clean it (spray away). I love the anti reflective properties but really, really hate scratches!

[rsultra]

How about putting the glass on first and then the antibreflective film? May impede fingerprint reader

[darthkujo]

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😅.

Great content. I use Whitestone dome film screen protector for s23 ultra. This film has built-in liquid that uses UV lighting, which makes the film feel like a glass screen protector. It's much stronger than your average film screen protector.

[ThinkGenius]

What do you recommend best screen protector for the s23 ultra? ( or used to be)

[shawnx]

Great video I just recently got glass screen protector fits perfectly on my phone but I did notice on the edges of the screen protector I see green and purple colours is this normal ? I did not have this issue before the glass screen protector. Thanks

[dpleech]

I got the Samsung screen protector free with my S24 Ultra. I had to take it off after 2 days as it didn't go to the edge of the screen, so when I swiped from the edge, my finger would catch on the film. It was super annoying.

[ytuser]

How about applying the film on a tempered glass protector? You get best of both, except that the finger print scanner may not work.

[nerfgodbigguy]

Cant you just put the film ontop of your fortress tempered glass, ( im guessing itll be too thick for that ? )

[Zelmchad]

is it worth enabling touch sensitivity does it help while having screen protector?

[davidbrown]

I use a tempered glass screen protector on my Samsung S23+ and my ultrasonic Fingerprint detector works 100%.
