great video , installed in a steamey bathroom and followed your instructions and perfect install , thanks for taking the time , great video
Thank you! The instructions were in broken english and this definitely helped
Great video absolutely love the screen protector the the camera protector
Appreciate the video! Wish it had a bit better lighting, lot of effort goes into a review. Thanks
Thanks for making the video. I almost initiated a return to Amazon before I came across this video.
Comprehensive! Thank you!
Thank you for the guide!
Thanks for nice video !
Everything went smoothly went smoothly until I got to the port where I had to release the trigger and let the red compartment slide up it meant slide up the blue compartment of the jig.
I did so as instructed in the video and the red compartment took off like a rocket off the blue compartment slid across my table and onto the floor and I was Surprised because because I knew that wasn't supposed to happenI did not get the resultsIs that I wanted and have to retry again. I think I got a defective jig
Had this on my S10 and I swear it saved my phones life !!! I refuse to use any other screen protector on my phone. Just traded in my S10 for the S21 ultra and got the full 800 towards it cause my S10 was in perfect condition thanks to this freakin screen protector. The screen protector was trashed to shit but it did its job cause the actual screen was unscathed. Just ordered the whitestone for my S21 ultra , waiting on it now. Great vid tho 👍 they changed the setup a bit so ill be sure to watch this video as im installing it.
EDIT: So I ran through both of whitestone dome glass screen protectors that came in the box and was pretty disappointed that the fingerprint sensor issue hadn't been resolved 😒 (for me at least). So I decided to give the Amfilm tempered glass a try and wow! I wish I pulled the trigger on this one a long time ago. The fingerprint sensor now works for me 99% of time while the white stone rendered the sensor pretty much useless and I had to rely on face unlock. So ya my go to screen protector will now be Amfilm. If anyone is having fingerprint sensor issues with the whitestone glass screen protector, I highly recommend giving the Amfilm screen protector a try. You won't regret it !
Just did the same except I did have a crack but they was taking broken for 800 off
Does Amfilm have that stupid finger print cut-out?
@@seapanther53 Nope no cutout. I wouldn't have it on my phone if there was a fingerprint sensor cutout. They just include a weight you place on top of the fingerprint scanner area during curing.
@@kingrob9993 thank you for the reply. Just purchased it 😀
@@seapanther53 No problem 👍 let me know what you think of it.
Thanks for the video!
Thank you for your support Bret.
@@HighTechCheck Was gonna order through your link but your s21 plus link is for the normal s21 fyi. Almost ordered it until thankfully I spotted it. If you can fix it today ill order through your link. But would be good to fix to prevent mixups
I cant find on amazon europe for s21 ultra im still with fabrik foil
The whitestone dome seems to be a little more tedious than the amFilm version. However, the amFilm also does comes with a little level to know that the surface and phone are level before application. Again, however, the Whitestone makes sure you're getting the adhesive directly in the middle.. So it's a trade off. Plus, that tiny dome level (that comes with amFilm) isn't that expensive, IF you REALLY wanna make sure your installation goes flawlessly.
Omg if your desk is slightly of kilter all fluid runs to side. Fml I can't find a level spot anywhere.
Anyone know if this will work with the otterbox defender case for the s21 ultra???
What is ery confusing is that my speaker is on the bottom with the connector, not at the top....did they change the design of the 21 ultra?
I wish you tested lensun 360 screen protector on s21 ultra and tell us your opinion
Before doing the 60 seconds push down where your finger print reader is for a few seconds I could not get mine to work after installing watched another video that recommended doing that and now I have absolutely no problem didn't have to redo finger prints or anything
One box with the two pack of screen protectors would last me at least 4 years. Even if it's broken in places it still is a solid protector. Yeah the edges feel weird missing glass but if I can still see I won't Remove it
What would be the best phone case with this?
Will it work with polarized sunglasses?
Nice video. Will this work with defender pro case?
Yes, thats the case I have and it works flawlessly.
just bought whitedome for S21+ and mine did not came with the red cover. Only came with clear plastic tray.
Thank you for your useful video.My fingerprint works great when screen is in normal temperature but I have issues when screen is hot.What should I do?Do I have to register fingerprints again or I have to applicate again UV light?
I would try re registering your fingerprint if you haven’t already done that. You can also try registering more than one finger.
I had this problem. What I did was get it nice and hot and re-registered my fingerprints then. It worked fine when cold, and when hot after that.
Ma su Amazon Europa non ci sono ancora in vendita
Do they have full glass? can you test with supcase UB pro if its lift the glass or not? (of course remove the plastic film)
I wouldn’t advise using any case that uses a plastic cover that pushes down on the screen, every time I’ve done that some part of the protector lifts up.
Woow super💕💕
How does this compare to the amfilm tempered glass one? They look very similar for install, but how do they compare once on the s21 ultra?
As far as quality goes they both seem pretty comparable, install ease goes to Whitestone. It’s the easiest install I have ever done and the fingerprint still works great.
Is this screen protector case friendly or does it peel up?
How do you remove it if it cracks? With it being adhesive, also does it wipe off from the sides ok? Im worried that the adhesive is gonna mess up the factory screen which kinda defeats the whole purpose. I pointed out in another comment to you your s21plus link is for the s21. Was gonna use your link if you can fix it
The adhesive doesn't damage the screen in any way, in fact it actually repairs it if you had any scratches before installing this screen protector, the adhesive will fill up light scratches. You can just start peeling up the corners with your nail or maybe a playing card and that will work however the way I removed mine was by heating up the screen first with a blowdryer which made the protector come off a little easier
I think this is better than what Samsung did. My S21+ screen protector is little bit off centre and the sticker at the back also. Maybe they were in a hurry to push out numbers. I did however take this up with Samsung and were told I will receive another protector along with my buds. So we'll see
Does Samsung sell OEM screen protectors for the S21+?
@@EmilianoSandler i don't think so. But they do have oem protectors for when you send your phone in for repairs. My previous Samsung went in for repairs, they did not replace the screen, but the phone came back with a protector on
hi.. i heard s21 ultra have a built in or pre installed screen protector. you didn't seem to remove it prior to installation of whitestone. does it have to be installed on top of that pre installed screen protector? or did you remove it prior to shooting this tutorial video?
He is in the United States where they don't come with a built in screen protector. Only a film protector which he stated in another comment he removed
S21 have no pre-installed protector. I had it on my note s10 plus but I guess they decided to not include it for this release
Do you have coupon code?
Hi, I've read in a couple of reviews that this Whitestone Dome glass isn't even glass (because it's "bendable"), can anyone give some insight on this before I purchase? I want an actual glass protector so if it does fall or something hits the screen I want that glass to take the impact & crack, I know a protector film won't do that.
Good question. I've had about 4 generations of the Whitestone Dome glass dating back to the S8+. This year's version of the glass still is glass but it seems more malleable than the previous iterations. I've had mine on my S21 Ultra for five months, and just had the first crack on the protector. Studying the protector a a little more it still seems like it's made of glass, just not as brittle as before. I think it's a good thing but not 100% certain.
i can confirm its flimcy plastic screen wich breaks easy, but is is not bendable.
how would you compare this to the AmFIlm? Aren't they almost the same or even identical? The Whitestone one is $70 which is overpriced IMO, wheereas the AmFIlm one is $33.
The amfilm seems to work just as good but the Whitestone is more case friendly and the installation is the easiest I’ve ever done.
Whitestone was on sale in Amazon just the other day for 49.
@@cappy5634 yeah still on sale for $50
Does the camera protector peel off without damaging the flat black finish of the camera hump?
Good question. @HighTechCheck will you provide an answer for it, please?
Yes it come off with little effort but leaves no residue or damage to the bump.
@@HighTechCheck Thank for the reply.
Wat happens if you mess up is the Glue easy to clean?
it's easy to clean. if you didn't cure it then just rinse the phone off thoroughly in the sink, dry it with a micro fiber cloth and start over with the alcohol prep. if you had the glass on and didn't cure it but messed up then that's a bit of a problem. u technically can clean the glass off but u run a high risk of getting dust under the screen during the curing process. I would just use the 2nd one at that point since you'll be starting over all together.
if it was installed fully and cured its easy to redo if it needs to be replaced. just carefully lift from one of the edges and slowly apply upward pressure to remove it (take ur time cuz it can and will break easily removing it). wipe the screen down real good with an alcohol prep pad and begin your new installation.
hope that helped
Thought I messed up when I placed the screen on the phone.. turned out I was right lol.. threw it out... clean the screen again and used a new adhesive.... turn around and come back it was just a dot on the screen... what actually happened was the table magically became uneven so it spilled all over the table lol 🤦🏽♂️.
With only 1 screen and 1 adhesive left... I finally got it done.. and omg. Finally something that feels safe and actually feels right lol..
Now on to finding cases with a s pen slot. Spigen let me down. Case has no actual grip besides the power button and the volume... if anyone has other suggestions for cases with S pen slots let a brother know. Lol thank you
I'd just get the Official Samsung case for the s-pen for the S21 Ultra.
Did you remove the factory installed screen protector (under the protective film actually lies a screen protector)
Yes I removed the factory film.
This is false. The only ones that come with a protector installed are the minority of phones that don't go to the US. For the vast majority of us, the phone doesn't come with one.
@@HighTechCheck American phones don't have one. Aren't you in the United States?
So we're 2 weeks further, is it holding up?
No cracking or fingerprint issues?
Also want to know this.
Just ordered the Whitestone Dome for my S21 Ultra that's supposed to be here by the end of the month (hopefully.) Hoping it does a great job. His FP sensor seems to take a second to turn the screen on though, but he didn't reregister his FP's, hopefully re-registering did the job.
No issues at all and the fingerprint sensor is still working fine. To tell you the truth I’ve been using the Whitestone Dome now for probably three or four years and I’ve never had it just crack on me. I have had a little bit of lifting in the corners in the past but nothing so far on the galaxy S 21 ultra.
@@HighTechCheck I also only buy Whitestone screen protectors since I first discovered them a few years ago. This time around the adhesive didn't cover the entire screen leaving it unattached at the very bottom and very top. Not sure what happened. It happened again when I tried with the 2nd glass and glue.
@@MelissaBoehl all international models come with a factory installed film screenprotrctor, I guarantee you that
@@thespecialist75 Oh film yes, I thought you were referencing the pre-installed glass that came pre-installed on the Note 10 plus and that series.
So I looked at this and your "Best And Worst Screen Protectors for Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra" video. I don"t know if you recommend Whitestone or amfilm?
I would recommend both, those are the 2 that worked the best all around so far.
Whitestone is the best
I second that! Whitestone is by far the best option
I don't know that Whitestone is the best.
But it is idiot proof.
I will be spending the extra $30 to make sure it is on correctly.
My whitestone had a broken jig which screwed up my install and could not get a refund. Whitestone did send me a replacement and the jig worked and all is well.
Great review of the products but the cushion is garbage .
**Check the jig spring read why**
I am a return customer with this product and after watching the instructional video fom Whitestone I figured this would be a breeze and I did as instructed. I was very pleased with how the installation was going I get to the park where I am supposed to release the blue trigger and let the red compartment of The jig move up the blue part of The jig and set the glass and wait the 2 minutes..
Well that did not happen. When I released the blue lever and let go of the red compartment, the red compartment of the jig took off like a rocket and flew off across my table and onto onto the floor. Needless to say I was very disappointed because I took my time in setting this up.
With that being said I left it sit for 2 minutes maybe hoping it would settle into place, that was not the case. Needless to say I was very disappointed I took a step back cleaned everything up and figured I would give it a another try the next day.
So there's no cut out for the fingerprint?
Nope
20:55 Easily* You have something against adverbs, sir?!
Will this last in an out the Pocket?
Yes
nope.-
After applying this to my Ultra, I can no longer get the fingerprint scanner to recognize my fingers even with touch sensitivity enabled. Works fine with no protector.
I'm not sure but most of these videos ignore the fact that the ultra s21 comes with factory pre installed screen protector. I would assume that might be the reason...
I’m sorry yours is not working, I have no issues with mine still.
@@thespecialist3162 US versions of the phone do Not come with a pre-installed protector. Mine did not and several other people in my region did not have one on theirs either.
There is no pre-installed protector on the s21 series. I have never had an issue with the fingerprints scanner. Even with the note 10 plus which had a factory installed protector and I installed whitestone on top of it. Maybe its an issue with the phone itself. Sorry your having trouble.
im not talking about the film that is there to protect it inside the box, under it is another protector I don't think it's glass, but there is a protector if you look closely you see it.
13:51 you were about to test the fingerprint but you cut the video then you explained that you haven't registered a new fingerprint to test it. So you expect me to believe you?
Why would I lie? You are seeing that the fingerprint sensor is working either way so regardless if I never re registered my finger or did it after I cut the video the fact is that the fingerprint sensor works with this tempered glass screen protector. I take pride in not lying to my viewers so just know I was telling you the truth.
this glass is so flimsy it breaks in ur pocket, sadly there is no other alternativ, but try make a drop test;) i had mine in the pocket and corners chipped off ! second glass the weigth got mirroed into the glass. overpricy as fuck , flimsy . only thing it got goin for it is it haves the fingerprint option without the stupid circle inside.
Any alternatives?
Its to sheep thin plastic bendable the quality of the Whitestone dome keep going down and the price is keep going up!
All of them are bendable. The one for my 20 plus was the same, but man its saved my phone many many times. I mean many! They are tough as fuck.
if he had an affiliation through Amazon then please support him through the links in the description, otherwise if you want to save some money go directly to Whitestones website and order through them. I got the 2 pack tempered glass, 3 pack standard protectors, 2 pack tempered glass for camera, and a 2 pack cushion pads through them directly for around $45. Amazon has been ripping me off lately with their pricing
Thin flexible plastic, yes thats correct. Also correct, it's saved me from several shattered screens from drops, 100% of the time! The thin plastic combined with the adhesive and UV curing process makes this protector the absolute strongest and best option available. Just my humble opinion.
DO NOT BUY THE CAMERA PROTECTOR! Ordered and installed fine. Looks great... until you decide to use the flash. Images will come out with a blueish hue and all shots will be ruined. There is some reflection going on and making this useless when using the flash. Such a letdown.
I dont knoe why they make camera screen protectors anyway.. more layers of glass equals worse picture quality and like you said the flash gets partly "trapped" in the 2nd layer
I haven't a problem with the camera, but I don't use the flash. I've never spent this much on a phone which is why I bought the camera protectors. If I see lots of reports about the camera area not getting scratched after a few months I'll take mine off.
Mine cracked the day after I put it on Smh 😩 too flimsy
Bullshit. It's TEMPERED GLASS! You'd have a hard time cracking it even if you were being rough. You basically have to intend to destroy it in order to damage it. It's more likely you weren't treating your phone well. This is literally the BEST one on the market, bar none.
@@RationallySkeptical clearly u havent had this glass;), its so flimsy it breaks if u look at it, mine chipped off in the cover in the fucking pocket!. so go get it uself and try it out if u thjink its that hard, its nothing to do with a tempered glass, its a dome glass!
These whitestone dome glasses are useless, used them on note10, the fingerprint sensor wouldn't work after. Don't waste money.
After doing all the front cover, the back cover is really ridiculous, make a expensive phone to a cheap phone again...best don't use it.
Why
Way overpriced.
Not really if you've ever had one. Most won't work with the finger print reader but this one. So its either risk busting your phone or buying an expensive protector.
This company it terrible. Do NOT give them your $$$$
