Is the contract with gear 3 still available via samsung store?
 
Dropped the 18k pride and joy this morning on a hard tiled floor. Panzer glass did its job and sacrificed itself to save my screen.
Now I need to replace the R600 screen protector

What protector is that? Does it cover the whole screen including the curved bid? Is it Matt of glossy?

Brand is called Panzer Glass. its gloss, curved and case friendly. Available at a Samsung store. quite expensive though.
My quick notes on this screen protector:
  • It has quite a high reflectivity when the screen is off. acceptable when the screen is on.
  • There are tiny checkered lines on the screen when viewed in direct sunlight, you cant see them when screen is turned on.
  • Touch sensitivity needs to be increased in phone settings
  • The screen portion of the phone gets a grey tinge with this protector. Again it goes away when screen is on.
  • Only the edges have adhesive. This may cause the center to be slightly raised from the screen if not installed correctly. As was my case but it was hardly noticeable. I put the protector on myself, Samsung guys can do it for you. Protector also popped off when the phone hit the ground.
  • Lastly, it did what it says on the tin. My phone screen is still intact. I may look at alternatives today but if all else fails I'll replace it with the same.

Its the official Samsung Protective Standing Cover. Also damn expensive at almost R1k. Military spec. I think it also contributed to saving my screen.

YouTube says it all.

I had the Whitestone Dome Glass on mine, it's pretty fool proof to install. You don't need to increase touch sensitivity. The protector itself is super clear, did not notice any difference between the unprotected screen and with the protector on in terms of clarity etc.. It's a bit more expensive and not available in SA afaik. Ordered mine off amazon, took around 5 days to arrive cost R780 landed.

However I gave my phone back to vodacom on Monday because there was a fault on the display ( I posted a few pages back ). Still do not have a replacement phone and ordered a warranty replacement protector from whitestone which cost a further $9.99 because of shipping :| The UAG Monarch case + this protector is pretty much perfect protection for this device imho.
 
The notification only came up yesterday on mine. It's probably Mtn that's delayed again.
