Frequently Asked Questions
Will this screen protector work with my phone case?+
Yes, this Kinglas 3D tempered glass screen protector is designed to be case-compatible with most Samsung Galaxy A34 5G cases. The screen protector has a total thickness of just 0.60mm, which is thin enough to work with virtually all protective cases, wallet cases, and rugged cases designed for the A34 5G. The 3D curved edges are designed to sit just inside where most case bezels would rest, preventing interference or lifting at the edges. We recommend applying the screen protector first, then fitting your case. If you have an extremely thick rugged case with high bezels, the case should still fit over the protector without issue. In rare cases where an ultra-tight fitting case causes edge lifting, you can apply the protector after the case is fitted by carefully aligning through the case opening. Most customers use this protector successfully with popular case brands available in Australia.
What does 9H hardness mean and how does it protect my screen?+
The 9H hardness rating refers to the pencil hardness scale used to measure scratch resistance. On this scale, 9H is the highest rating, meaning the glass can resist scratches from the hardest pencils without showing marks. In practical terms, this means your screen protector will resist scratches from everyday objects like keys, coins, and other items in your pocket or handbag. The Samsung Galaxy A34 5G screen itself is made from Corning Gorilla Glass 5, which is tough but can still scratch from harder materials like sand particles or certain metals. This Kinglas tempered glass adds an extra layer of 9H-rated protection that takes the scratches instead of your phone screen. When the protector eventually shows wear, you simply replace it rather than living with scratches on your actual phone display. The 9H rated Japan Asahi glass used in this protector is among the highest quality screen protection materials available.
Will the fingerprint sensor still work with this screen protector?+
Yes, your Samsung Galaxy A34 5G fingerprint sensor will continue to work with this Kinglas screen protector installed. The A34 5G uses an optical under-display fingerprint sensor that reads through the screen. This tempered glass protector has been specifically designed with high light transmittance of 92% or greater, allowing the fingerprint sensor to function normally. The thin 0.60mm total thickness ensures the sensor can accurately read your fingerprint through the glass. After applying the protector, we recommend re-registering your fingerprints in Settings for optimal recognition. Go to Settings, then Biometrics and Security, then Fingerprints, delete your existing prints, and add them again with the protector installed. This ensures the sensor calibrates correctly to read through the glass layer. If you experience any reduced sensitivity, try pressing slightly firmer or adjusting your finger position. Most users report the fingerprint sensor works just as well with the protector as without it.
What is Japan Asahi glass and why is it better?+
Asahi Glass Company, now known as AGC Inc., is one of the world's leading glass manufacturers based in Japan. They supply glass to major electronics manufacturers globally and are known for producing exceptionally high-quality optical glass. The A+ grade designation indicates premium quality within Asahi's product range, meaning this glass meets strict standards for clarity, durability, and consistency. Compared to generic tempered glass from unknown sources, Japan Asahi glass offers superior optical clarity with minimal distortion, more consistent hardness across the entire surface, better chemical tempering for improved shatter resistance, and higher quality raw materials that result in fewer imperfections. This translates to a screen protector that looks clearer, feels smoother, and provides more reliable protection than budget alternatives. When you hold an Asahi glass protector up to the light, you'll notice it's crystal clear without the slight yellow or green tint common in cheaper glass. The investment in quality glass means your screen looks as good as it did without any protector.
How do I avoid bubbles during installation?+
Bubble-free installation is achievable with proper preparation and technique. The key is eliminating dust before you start, because most bubbles are actually caused by tiny dust particles trapped under the glass. First, clean your screen thoroughly with the included alcohol swab and let it dry completely, this usually takes about thirty seconds. Then use the microfiber cloth to buff away any remaining residue or streaks. The included dust removal tape is crucial, use it to lift any remaining microscopic particles from the screen surface immediately before applying the glass. For best results, install in a humid environment like a bathroom after running hot water, as the steam causes dust to settle rather than float in the air. When applying, start from one edge and lower the glass slowly, letting the adhesive make contact gradually rather than dropping it flat. If you see any small bubbles forming, use the microfiber cloth to gently push them toward the nearest edge. The full-adhesive design of this protector makes bubble removal easier than edge-only adhesive types.
What does 3D full coverage mean for this screen protector?+
3D full coverage means this screen protector is designed to follow the curved edges of your Samsung Galaxy A34 5G screen rather than just covering the flat centre portion. The Samsung Galaxy A34 5G has slightly curved edges where the glass meets the frame, and this Kinglas protector is shaped to match those curves. The full-adhesive design means the entire back surface of the protector has adhesive, not just the edges. This provides several benefits compared to traditional flat protectors or edge-only adhesive designs. You get complete protection across the entire screen surface including the curved edges where damage often occurs. There's no gap between the protector and screen where dust and debris can collect. The protector feels more integrated with your phone rather than sitting on top like a separate layer. Edge lifting is eliminated because the adhesive covers the entire surface. Touch sensitivity is consistent across the whole screen because there's uniform contact everywhere. This 3D design represents the current best practice in screen protection technology.
How does the oleophobic coating work and how long does it last?+
The oleophobic coating on this Kinglas screen protector is applied using AF Plasma technology, which bonds the oil-resistant layer to the glass at a molecular level. Oleophobic literally means oil-fearing, and this coating causes oils from your fingers to bead up rather than spread across the surface. This makes fingerprints less visible and much easier to wipe away. The coating also resists other oils and makes the surface feel smoother when swiping and tapping. This particular protector has been friction-tested over three thousand times, indicating the coating's durability under normal use. You can expect the oleophobic coating to remain effective for six to twelve months of daily use, depending on how frequently you clean the screen and what you use to clean it. Avoid cleaning with alcohol-based cleaners or abrasive materials as these can degrade the coating faster. Simply wiping with the included microfiber cloth or a soft cotton cloth is the best way to clean while preserving the coating. When the coating eventually wears down, the glass protection remains intact, but fingerprints may become more visible, indicating it might be time for a fresh protector.
Will this affect my screen clarity or display quality?+
This Kinglas screen protector has a light transmittance of 92% or greater, which means at least ninety-two percent of your screen's light passes through the glass unimpeded. In practical terms, most users cannot notice any difference in screen brightness or colour accuracy with this protector installed. The Samsung Galaxy A34 5G has a beautiful Super AMOLED display with vibrant colours and deep blacks, and this protector is designed to preserve those qualities. The Japan Asahi A+ glass is known for exceptional optical clarity without the colour distortion sometimes seen in cheaper alternatives. Some low-quality screen protectors can add a slight yellow, green, or blue tint to your display, but this premium glass maintains true colour reproduction. The 0.33mm glass thickness is thin enough that there's no noticeable parallax effect, which is when the displayed image appears to be separated from where you touch. Your touchscreen experience will feel natural and responsive, with the high clarity ensuring you can enjoy your A34's display as Samsung intended.
Can I remove and reapply this screen protector if I make a mistake?+
Yes, you can carefully remove and reapply this screen protector if needed, though success depends on how quickly you act and the condition of the adhesive. If you notice the alignment is off immediately after application, gently lift one corner using your fingernail or a thin plastic card and slowly peel the protector back. Work slowly to avoid bending or cracking the glass. Once removed, you can clean the adhesive surface with the included microfiber cloth to remove any dust that may have stuck to it. If only a small amount of dust is present, you can use sticky tape to lift the particles from the adhesive. Then carefully reapply, taking more time with alignment. The full-adhesive design is fairly forgiving for repositioning within the first few minutes. However, if significant dust has accumulated on the adhesive or if the protector has been in place for a long time, the adhesive may not bond as effectively the second time. For best results, take your time with initial placement and work in a clean environment. If removal and reapplication isn't successful, you may need a replacement protector.
How does this compare to plastic screen protectors?+
Tempered glass screen protectors like this Kinglas offer significant advantages over plastic film protectors for most users. The most noticeable difference is scratch resistance, plastic films scratch easily and will show wear marks within weeks of normal use, while the 9H tempered glass resists scratches from everyday objects. Touch feel is also superior with glass, the smooth surface mimics the original screen feel, whereas plastic can feel rubbery or create drag when swiping. Optical clarity is better with quality tempered glass, offering crystal clear viewing without the slight haziness plastic films can have. Drop protection is another major advantage, tempered glass absorbs and distributes impact force, potentially saving your actual screen from cracks in falls that would damage it otherwise. The glass is designed to shatter in place if impacted hard enough, sacrificing itself instead of your phone screen. Plastic films offer minimal impact protection. The main advantages of plastic are flexibility and thinness, but for the Samsung Galaxy A34 5G with its large display, the superior protection and feel of tempered glass makes it the preferred choice for most Australian users.
