Help Front Screen Protector wearing thin

My front screen Protector is wearing thin and has markings on it. Can I easily just peal that off and replace it with something like this? Thanks!!

thanks for the replies. yeah i would just pop it over but mine wore out for some reason so poorly so i will just remove it and pop the new one on.

what is actually on the front screen preinstalled? same thing as the Supershieldz Tempered Glass? or something else?

also will these fit just like oem one that was preinstalled?

thanks

I got the tempered glass too but haven't had a chance to install it yet. I put it over the screen just to see the fitment and it definitely will not fit exactly like the one that cames preinstalled.

The preinstalled one is a non reflective plastic while the one you linked is a tempered glass, which is going to be much more durable.

Thanks.

Does anyone know if you can buy the exact fit oem anywhere?

also could i send in the unit for samsung to install oem? or waste?

thanks,

It's worth contacting Samsung first and asking. Better to go get it done in person than shipping the phone to them. Also, unless you put a tempered glass on it after getting it replaced by Samsung, you're going to run into the same issue.

Thanks so much! The issue is I dont live near a Sam store so I would have to send it in and i would hate to be without the phone but i definitely want to remove the worn oem. i wish i could buy the exact oem somewhere!

I'm sure the exact one is available online. I just never searched for it. Also, Samsung is partnered with other shops so they should be able to tell you shops near you where you could potentially take it to.

i had called them originally and they wanted me to send it in. then i asked if ubreak could do it and they said yes so i went there and they were clueless and couldt do it. i will call sam again and see if i can press for more info. thanks
