Spigen’s new Glas.tR Platinum tempered glass screen protector rises to the challenge of the Galaxy S21's unique design (Sponsored)

This story was originally published and last updated . 

The dream of an all-screen phone has introduced significant technical challenges — not just for smartphone makers, but when it comes to high-quality accessories, too. Not every screen protector will play nice with your in-display fingerprint sensor. But Spigen's new Glas.tR Platinum tempered glass screen protector for the Galaxy S21 series has been fully re-engineered with the thinnest liquid adhesive layer possible, ensuring a perfect fit, full functionality, and maximum protection for your new Galaxy S21.

[Update: Fix out] Samsung will begin patching fingerprint scanner security flaw within 24 hours

Samsung really talked up the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy S10 when it launched. It was supposed to be faster and more secure than other methods. We knew the first part wasn't true soon after launch, but we only found out how easy it was to fool the sensor a few days ago. Cheap screen protectors could allow any fingerprint to unlock the S10 and Note 10 phones, but Samsung promised a quick update.

[Update: Samsung statement] Galaxy S10 in-display fingerprint sensor reportedly rendered insecure by cheap accessory

[Update: Samsung statement] Galaxy S10 in-display fingerprint sensor reportedly rendered insecure by cheap accessory

According to a recent report making its rounds on the internet, the in-display fingerprint sensor in the Galaxy S10 doesn't offer much in the way of security if you are using the wrong accessories. For one UK couple using an inexpensive "gel" screen protector (or case, it isn't immediately clear which), their cheap accessory compromised the phone's fingerprint recognition capabilities by allowing any finger to unlock the phone, eliminating the security offered by the in-display reader.

[Update: Dead] Price mistake: Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL glass screen protectors from Caseology are free right now

If you have a Pixel 3 or 3 XL and need a screen protector, these screen protectors are currently free — yes, $0.00 — on Caseology's site.

Pixel 2 / Pixel 2 XL case & screen protector reviews: Protection for every scenario [Updated continuously]

Pixel 2 / Pixel 2 XL case & screen protector reviews: Protection for every scenario [Updated continuously]

With phones getting as expensive as they are, you'd have to be nuts not to get a case to protect your investment. A base model Pixel 2 is nearly $700 out the door, with the 128GB Pixel 2 XL going into four-figure territory. But even after you've made the decision to spend a few bucks on a case, you might be wondering which one in particular you should buy.

Weekend poll: Screen protector or no?

Weekend poll: Screen protector or no?

In seven years of smartphone ownership, I can't say I've ever bought a screen protector for any of my handsets. They feel weird, they put a layer between you and the screen, and I really just don't like the way they look. But, there's no denying that a proper tempered glass sheet can save your phone from catastrophe along with reducing the signs of general wear and tear, and a plastic one can at least do the latter.

As smartphones start to adopt curved screens, though, screen protectors have become less practical, and manufacturers are more and more touting the inherent toughness of their devices when it comes to resisting impacts (if not so much scratches).

[Deal Alert] Enjoy some 60 percent off coupon codes for 6 different Spigen LG G6 cases and a tempered glass screen protector

Spigen is one of my personal favorite phone case manufacturers. Its cases are consistently well made, with quality materials, and precision crafting. They also are affordable, which makes this deal lovin' nerd very happy. If you've pre-ordered an LG G6 or are planning on picking one up soon, then Spigen should be on your list of companies to choose from when selecting your case.

More Leaked Nexus 7 Accessories Surface, Including A Rotating Stand Case, Bluetooth Keyboard Case And More

Eric Ravenscraft Eric Ravenscraft

British gadget site Mobile Fun has some fantastic stuff for us to drool over today. After seeing some premium Nexus 7 accessories just a couple days ago, these new leaked photos show us even more Nexus 7 accessories including (brace yourself) a rotating stand case. In case those words don't make sense to your brain when placed together, here's how it works: it's a protective case that can turn into either a landscape or portrait stand. This is kind of awesome.

Is that not enough for you? Well, there's plenty more where that came from. If you prefer to use your Nexus 7 solely in landscape mode (we'll just assume you're not using the stock interface; to each his own), there will be a landscape-only case/stand along the same vein as one for the Xoom.
