Not a bad screen at all, just could be a little bigger.
I read a lot of reviews, and this glass seems not a whole lot different than any others. It was pretty easy to apply, but I did get a small bubble, not noticeable, but it is there. The last glass I bought didn't have a bubble. However, I dropped my phone for the first time yesterday, with the other brand screen, and the glass broke. So I peeled it off and applied this one. I do NOT like the fit. When I applied the "other" one (don't remember the brand, but the same size), I pretty much centered it. I had issues with the back button not working as well. So on this one I put it as far down as I could towards the home key, and left more gap at the top. Definitely do that...the back key works much better that way. If the glass was a little bigger I would give 5 stars, but for the size I really feel 4 is the best I can give. I know they say the screen is curved, yada yada, but it could definitely be a little bigger at least, or I would not have been able to set it down just a tad.

Don't hesitate. This screen protector is definitely worth it!
If you are having trouble picking which screen protector to get, definitely give TruShield a try. I spent hours looking at reviews of various screen protectors for the Note 4, and finally chose to go with TruShield and have absolutely no regrets!First of all, if you have a Note 4 and want the whole screen covered, that is just not going to happen. The edges of the screen on the Note 4 is curved ever-so-slightly so that if you do have a screen protector that covers the whole screen, you will get the "halo effect".-Fit: Now, the TruShield protector for the Note 4 covers as much of the front of the phone as possible without causing this halo effect. It does not cover the whole front surface of the phone but it definitely covers the whole screen. The look of it definitely does not bother me one bit. Also, the outline of the protector wraps around the home button, the selfie camera, and the ear speakers perfectly.-Form: When applying the screen, I noticed that it was both very sturdy and flexible at the same time. The sturdiness will definitely protect your phone screen and the flexibility will prevent the protector from shattering easily.-Feel: You can't feel any difference between the protector and the native screen when using your Note 4 with your finger. Also, you won't notice any difference in the way your phone responds. The only difference I felt was when I was using my S pen. When using the S pen with the screen protector, you feel the tiniest bit more friction (less glossy/slippery feel). Funny thing is, I actually like this. My handwriting was always terrible on the Note 4 because of how slippery the S pen was on the screen surface, but this screen protector actually fixed that for me!-Ease of application: I feel like this is where this protector truly shines. This was one of the easiest screen protectors to put on! (Trust me I have put on more than a dozen screen protectors: on my phone, my friends' phones, and my family's phones). The protector comes with a microfiber cloth thing (that is better than most microfiber cloths I've used), an alcohol prep, and a dust sticker. (I have instructions below if you need help putting it on).Also, what amazed me about this screen protector was how forgiving it is about mistakes. I mean it is very very incredibly forgiving! I first placed the screen down without matching it up perfectly, accidentally pressed on it, and it stuck to the phone. I used my nail to peel it off. When I tried to put it back on, my hand slipped and the protector fell on the towel (that my phone was on) sticky side down!!! When i picked it up, I could clearly see some dust particles and markings on the sticky side. After a quick freak out, I ran the sticky side under running tap water, and used my fingers to clean it and brush off the dust. After which, I used my hair drier to help dry the sticky side. Once it was completely dry, I checked to see if there were any spots, dusts, or markings left on the screen and there were none. Then I matched it up, dropped the protector onto the screen, pressed down the middle, and VOILA it went on perfectly. I cannot see any markings, any bubbling, or any dust stuck in between. It's like the protector isn't even there. The screen is crystal clear and I cannot be happier.Now I literally only had the screen protector on for one day, so I'll post again if I have any issues/updates. Thanks for reading my super long review!INSTRUCTIONS:1) Clean the surface with the alcohol prep2) Wipe with the microfiber cloth3) Use the dust sticker to take off any dust that is left over, and if needed, wipe with the microfiber one more time.4) Then you just peel the cover that's on the screen protector, match the protector up to the phone, and place it down gently.5) If it's matched up to your liking then tap/press down on the middle of the screen protector and watch the magic happen: the glass protector will automatically stick on to the phone, gradually pushing any air out in between from the middle to the outer edges.6) With the microfiber, wipe and push out any left over bubbles (if there are any).Pro-tip!: I always apply my screen in the bathroom. What I do is I leave my shower on as hot as possible for a minute or two, close the door, and let it humidify. This will sink all the dust in the air - no way for any dust to get on your screen!

Excellent Anit-Scratch and Anti-Fingerprint. However, It Does Not Cover the Viewing Area Entirely
UPDATE: What I found interesting is that on TruShield's website, they do not even have a product for the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Therefore this leads me to believe that this is a repackaged product labeled for the Note 4. A poor decision on the seller's part. This lowers my review by another star for this unfortunate deception.ORIGINAL REVIEW: This was purchased for a Samsung Galaxy Note 4. I received the correct product, and it arrived on time with no damage.Installation is very easy. Use alcohol prep pad, wipe with microfiber cloth, use included tape to remove remaining dust, then apply screen protector. It is not difficult at all to line up, as I used the Home button at the bottom of the phone as a guide. Drop it on, and the silicone adhesive spreads and adheres flawlessly.The protectors is wonderful with regards to fingerprint and scratch protection. You can press your thumb right to the screen, and no oils will be left behind. Assuming, of course, that you have clean hands. And why would you want to use dirty hands on your beautiful new phone anyway? No streaks appear from use of the S-Pen, so that is very satisfactory.However... The screen itself is too narrow. Yes, I know, the edges on the Galaxy Note 4 are rounded. I understand. But this screen protector does not even cover the entirety of the viewing window. It is about 2mm too narrow. Unfortunately, I do not have another camera to show you this. The protector that came with this phone when I purchased it was perfectly measured, and stayed adhered nicely (the fingerprint protection was why I switched).It is for this reason that I am returning the product for a full refund, and the reason I am taking away two stars. I expect a screen protector to protect the entire screen as much as possible, and this one falls short of that expectation.I will say though, take the negative part of this review with a grain of salt if you do not own a Galaxy Note 4. The anti-scratch and anti-fingerprint protection is second to none, the hardness is excellent, and the installation is very easy and quick. Just make sure that it covers the screen entirely.
