Best Samsung Galaxy S20 Screen Protectors Android Central 2020

The Galaxy S20 comes with its own plastic screen protector, but it's not of great quality. If you want the best possible experience, you'll want a better quality screen protector that also works with the ultrasonic screen protector. It's still early days, though, so stay tuned for lots of new additions in the weeks and months ahead.

Incredible protection

Glass screen protectors can be more finicky with the Galaxy S20 because of the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, but the UV curing system Whitestone uses is one we know works. It's expensive, to be sure, but it also holds really well to the phone and lasts a long time.

Staff pick

This oleophobic film protector comes in compact roll and uses a wet application to avoid bubbles and misalignments. ArmorSuit is also one of the few screen protectors made in the USA, if you prefer to buy domestic.

These film screen protectors from UniqueMe aren't as rugged as tempered glass variants, but they offer a great value. They'll also keep your S20 display safe from scuffs and scratches without interfering with the in-display fingerprint sensor like we've seen with previous Samsung phones.

This flexible film screen protector is designed to protect the curved edges of the S20's display. Technically this is a two-pack with an extra screen protector to practice with. Of course, if you install it perfect on the first try then you've got two spares which is nice.

Film screen protectors will serve you best

As we learned last year with the Galaxy S10, tempered glass screen protectors have a nasty habit of interfering with Samsung's ultrasonic fingerprint sensors so you'll want to keep that in mind. We've included a mix of both tempered glass and TPU film options, but if that in-display fingerprint sensor is a key feature for you, you're best to stick with the flexible film screen protectors.

For early adopters, our top recommendation is the ArmorSuit MilitaryShield. The wet install process leaves more changes for fixing any mistake or mis-alignment during installation, and the self-healing film should buff out small scratches and fingernail dents so you don't have to replace it as often.

For tempered glass, I'll recommend the Whitestone Dome Glass because its UV-curing system makes it less prone to problems with the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
