Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
2 Attachment(s)
I've tried MANY different models of tempered glass for the Jolla C.
The best 2 that I've found are the
- HTC Desire 626S (I don't know if the regular Desire 626 is the same or not)
- Motorola Moto G2

See the picture for the fitting results

The Moto G2 covers almost everywhere, but the HTC one looks nicer (covers less though)

Found a better one? Tell me and I'll update this post!

(Moto G2 is the one with the rounded corners)

I've attached mine with the HTC Desire 626s.

This is the result.
The LED below is exactly on the spot where the cut out is. I think this one is the best for Jolla C :)

Copied from my post on the main JollaC thread...

Not necessarily better, but to add info, this is cheapo HTC Desire M9 glass from ebay.

the HTC M9 is smaller then the Desire 626s.
The Desire fits better on the Jolla C

Yes of course :p
Glass > Plastic

I've been using a glass screen protector on my Jolla for about 1,5 years now. No problems at all

I didn't put anything at all on my first Jolla and had no problems...this one not sure...need to think about it

The plastic on the C was a bit stiff when using it. But with the glass works very nice

The one for HTC looks better imho. How about the case? The back plate looks rigid, but not sure for how long. I couldn't find anything for the Intex yet...

Maybe some of you here missed that we were "designing" a custom Jolla C Protector with german Bedifol GmbH.
They are ready to order in a variety of material since yesterday
Tempered glass would be "Brotect Airglass".
I ordered some and will report on the matching accuracy.

Re: Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
Brotect AirGlass arived in the post this morning:). Couldn't resist quickly fitting it over my morning coffee :o

I need to take it off and refit because it's a little bit skew, but it's a good match to the phone, with all the cutouts in the right places.
For those who've not seen them (I hadn't) it's very thin and flexible, and feels much nicer than the Jolla supplied plastic. It went straight on with no hassle and no bubbles.

It might be just a smidge narrower and shorter than it could be, but there's a tradeoff with making it hard to fit properly without overlap.

mosen 2016-08-03 13:51

Re: Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
YES! Also got it some minutes ago. Will make photos after i applied it this evening.

Edit: Brotect "AirGlass" it is not Tampered glass or glass at all...
Material is kind of thick and feels very good but they should really change the fake marketing name.

EDIT2:
I called with bedifol and they claim it is indeed special glass! I can not believe because it is flexible and thin... well you need to decide for yourself and see it crack in the video i guess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smq8NP5mzTc

Re: Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
If you touch a soldering iron to it, it melts on both sides, but not through the middle :confused: So it seems to be glass with a coating on both sides... not what I expected at all. (tested on the leftover bit after fitting!)

Re: Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
Application is very easy!
I am happy we did not give the maximum values to bedifol, now there is a little space to all sides.
The small gap is not disturbing at all, it actually fells better than with bigger original protector because there is an effect we did not plan :D

The Airglass is thicker than the stock protector and completely removes the slight bevel on the phone edges by leveling the screen with the caseing.

Looks great!

Does it get scratched easily? Since the top and bottom aren't from glass (right?)

It is very hard, feels like glass when applied and makes a solid impression.
I guess what epninety discovered was the laminate being easily meltable when touching with the soldering iron from the sides.

Application literally looks as brain soothing as in the video :p
It applies itself when started correctly. I am very happy with how this turned out.

epninety 2016-08-03 17:03

Re: Tempered Glass for Jolla C
 
I just recovered the last tiny bits (speaker and camera hole) from the bin to test again.

I was wrong before, it only melts on the adhesive side (as expected) not the outer face.

It seems the outer face can be scratched fairly easily with the point of a scalpel with some pressure, but it still seems pretty robust to me. Should survive light attention from keys and pocket detritus fairly well :D

I did not know which to order so I ordered both:
http://www.protectionfilms24.com/art...c-1030218.html (because expensive is always better)
and
http://www.protectionfilms24.com/art...c-2730218.html (because its hard)

Now I received both.

Left one in the pictures is "MySunshadeDisplay" and right one "BROTECT® AirGlass®"

I felt that the "BROTECT® AirGlass®" felt more though and it was not so thick that I was afraid of so I went for that one.

Rest of the pictures are "BROTECT® AirGlass®" attached to Jolla-C. Feels great and it is so much better than original one so I fully recommend it!

And as you can see -> START FROM TOP DOWN so allignment is better.
(Quess who did not think or watch any videos about attachment... :) Furtunately it is not disturbing anything but just cosmetic.)

Glass is flexible, not a liquid, but not a solid either.

I still have to bend my mind around that and had to read into the matter ;) Looks like the thinner and less tainted with impurities, the more flexible and break resistant. Also the laminat holds everything "in shape". I think i am near grasping it now.

Ordered last week (3rd of August), received today :)

I am one of those who prefer matte display --> ordered sample of glossy and matte version (glossy is meant as last resort if matte is really bad):
  • Brotect Matte Screen Protector
  • Brotect HD-Clear Screen Protector

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/..._52_12_Pro.jpg

Mate is mounted and I like it very much, have no idea glass or not, just went and ordered "something" :D

And it's the best anti fingerprint and anti glare. I use it on both my Jollas.

Installed the HD Clear on mine right now...didn't align it properly at the top (but did at the bottom, oh well)...looks cool.

I also like the matte finish, should have gone for that :)
