    Thank you so much for posting this video. My z flip 4 screen protector was creased to death in the middle of the display which attracted dirt, dust and grime from repeated use. It was disgusting and it made me angry until I saw your video on how to remove and install a new one myself. I realized that all along, I already had the replacement items.... Just needed to use them properly and now my screen is back to normal. Thank you, again, for it is people like yourself that enable the rest of us to be self sufficient!

    The problem with changing the screen protector is that at the hinge the connecting ribbon under the glass screen can impact on some fixings at the hinge area, which frays in use and eventually shorts out the phone when you fold it.

    Heyy, I have a similar screenprotector experience (with the flip3). My question is: how is your flip 3 flip4 holding up with the Whitestone screenprotector after application. Does it holdout the same or maybe better? And can you use a whitestone flip4 protector on the 3? I believe they should be the same right?

  • @TerryLivesey

    They are holding out better than the original to be fair 👍🏻 Not sure about the difference between 3 & 4 as whitestone branded packaging for each so I bought the one they recommended. I don't think there is a difference but I haven't had both at the same time to compare against; sorry.

I booked a free samsung repair, but after taking the screen protector off, they discovered a tiny scratch and refused to apply the new screen protector because "its against their policy." I can't afford 350 quid to fix this, so I'll be using your video to apply a screen protector that I will now have to purchase myself :/

    There is a lot of debate about that and I'm not a lawyer who can advise. I read the warranty as it needs a protector to validate the warranty and if you break the screen removing it then it's your problem. If you really are not sure then you should go back to Samsung.
