BE CAREFUL AND MAKE SURE TO COVER THE SPEAKER VERY WELL. I didnt push the sticker down hard enough over the earpiece, and it filled completely with glue! Couldn't hear a damn thing from it. Only the bottom speaker had sound. If this happens to you, get a tiny sewing needle and some rubbing alcohol. The gell will break down in the alcohol and u can gently scrape it out. i managed to get it all out without scratching anything, Thank god. Gave me a heart attack the whole time until i fixed it... After using it for a bit, it's a really great screen cover. And it feels amazing. Also, my fingerprint sensor seems more accurate than before. I had my fingerprint in 4x and still was hit or miss. With the screen protector, it recognizes my fingeprint better. I'm not sure how, but it does work better for me now.
I used to be a zagg person for all my galaxies or notes, now since the fingerprint scanner in screen came out I lost trust in zagg. Whitestone is my go to. No cutouts for fingerprint scanning, 9h rating, zero air bubbles, to be honest the initial cost is actually quite cheap for the quality and would expect it to be more 70+ for initial buy.
I use WD Glass protectors on all my phones. I take my S23 Ultra in and out of my pocket at least 150-200 times a day - and that's just for work. Both of my pockets are always full of stuff, and the first day I got the phone I already had at least 20 scratches on the screen. I've had the protector on the phone for about a week now and I see no scratches on it, plus the scratches underneath are finally completely gone.
Luv the Samsung Galaxy line of Cell phones. Since the Galaxy Note came out I've owned three of them until they were discontinued. I used the TPT (thermoplastic polyurethane), screen protectors on my first two Galaxy Note's and switched to the Glass type for my last & third Note 9. So, the Note 9 was acting old (mostly keyboard input issues) and I picked up a S23 Ultra for the "S-Pen" it has in common w/ the Note series. The swap-over of App's, Files & Photos wasn't fun, but I used the two days I had before my Glass Screen Protector arrived from that jungle website. So, here's what wasn't mentioned here in this Whitestone Dome Glass review, and it's not trivial. I installed my New Glass Screen Protector after I'd set up the "Biometric" security feature, aka the Fingerprint reader centered on the lower half of the screen. Well, as it turns out, the Fingerprint reader is recessed ever so slightly into the S23 screen and when the new Glass Protector was installed, there was a visible air gap that I couldn't bet rid of. IOW, the fingerprint Reader no longer worked. So, I bought a different and more expensive brand of Glass Screen Protector, installed it and the same thing happened. A large visible air gap appeared over the Fingerprint Reader again, rendering it unusable. So, my solution was this Dome Glass Screen Protector with a adhesive that also serves as a Filler for the Fingerprint Reader area and apparently for Scratches as well. So, a standard Glass Screen Protector won't fill the Fingerprint Reader gap slightly below the screen surface and won't fill scratches. Maybe a more flexible PET or TPU type (non glass) protector will flex enough to fill a scratch or the Fingerprint reader's lower surface, IDK, it might be a less expensive option. But standard Glass Protectors don't work on this phone. I did opt for the Camera Lens covers by Whitestone and I like them, just make sure everything is clean & lint free. It was said in this video that Camera Lens protectors might reduce picture quality but no testing or proof was offered. I'd like to see a real photo comparison of Lens Protectors vs none. Lastly, I did buy and install the Whitestone "Liquid Silicone Gel" case because I knew would fit the Lens Covers and Screen Protector but, I can't recommend buying one. The Silicon is slippery and the case constantly wants to slip from your grip.
I swear by their screen protectors for about 6 years now, the only problem is that warranty department sucks because it takes them forever to send you a replacement glass.
Great content. I use a heavy-duty case, like Supcase unicorn beetle pro or I-Blason Armorbox or poetic spartan or otterbox defender pro for my s23 ultra. And I don't care what glass screen protector you use. They would always lift when changing out my cases. But I found the cure for that problem. The best film screen protector out there. The Whitestone dome film screen protector. It's the only film screen protector that I know of that uses a UV light after applying the screen, just like there glass one. And it costs 24.99 for a two pack. Add on. I just put on the Whitestone dome glass screen protector and I love it. Tried it with my supcase unicorn beetle pro and the corner lifted a bit. But after 2 days it went back to normal. I have the otterbox defender pro with my phone right know with no problem. I paid 35.00 for the two pack. Well worth it.
I find the fingerprint scanner very finicky, sometimes doesn't work at all, followed the instructions carefully, did get glue everywhere, but aside from two airbubbles at the bottom it's on and fits into my case. It seems a bit better 24 hours later, but really not good enough for £50!
How can i remove a single small droplet of glue from the ear speaker after installing? Its not deep, also no functionality issues, just looks bad in some lighting...its close to the exit
Not worth it. I did it on my $1,500 Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra & it broke my phone. My speaker doesn't work right. Bubbles all over. I did it right. I'm sure it's great if you know magic. No way to contact whitestone except if i want to pay $10 to get another one under warranty. So the warranty is trash. Pay $30 to break my $1,500 phone & another $10 to get another one to break it again.
Sometimes viewers just prefer a video directed towards their specific device. He's just covering his bases and increasing his exposure. I see nothing wrong with this.

Bruh how are you so careless with your brand new phone that you had 20 scratches on the first day? 💀

The dome glass cracked within 2 days . No drops or anything. Could the cold weather cause the glass to crack?

24? Think you mean 60! The 24 is a coated plastic film?

I've used whitestone for every phone I've ever owned and the s23 is the first time the screen protection has lasted more then a few weeks
How can i remove a single small droplet of glue from the ear speaker after installing? Its not deep, also no functionality issues, just looks bad in some lighting...its close to the exit
Can someone help me why I have a colorful reflection at the top of the camera and at the top edge with white backgrounds?
What about the Whitestone Dome film screen protector is it any good
You get two screens and enough extra to apply both if need be. Discounts will get it for $40. Does the S pen work with it on? Nobody showing that.
Yes, the S Pen works like the screen protector isn't there.
Yes!!

When using a phone with a curved display, I always go for a film protector. Easy on, easy off.
I've never managed to make those suckers stick around the edges.
Got it for the Pixel 7 and it healed the scratches on my screen.
What's clock widget you're using? Thank you
Overpriced garbage. Screen protectors take less than 1 dollar to manufacture,even for the most expensive options. Total waste of money
its not 9H right
Not even close! 7 is more accurate
And that mustache?
I too am expecting an update on this topic
wow...am impressed
They're junk and crack around the edges after about 2 weeks. I've tried 4 and the longest they've lastest unbroken is 33 days
bro really had four $50 screen protectors💀💀
Mine cracked in under 2 days fr
Addeeesive
Same video, different phone. A quick unsub for "let's waste some time" videos.
