I have been applying screen protectors on numerous iPhones, iPad and other smart phones for the past 5 years.

During the course of my research, different brands of screen protector for Nexus 4 do not have the said cutout.<\/p>\n<p>One thing that you should know that GreatShield Matte Screen Protector size. While it fully covers the screen area, it is smaller than the glass-face of Nexus 4. It leaves 2 mm on the sides and bottom and 1 mm on the top. The gaps prevent the film from bubbling due to friction from certain Nexus 4 cases. The case I have on this Nexus 4 certainly does not fall in that category.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Nexus-4-GreatShield-Front-Camera.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Nexus-4-GreatShield-Front-Camera\" src=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Nexus-4-GreatShield-Front-Camera.jpg\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Nexus-4-GreatShield-Proximity-Sensor.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Nexus-4-GreatShield-Proximity-Sensor\" src=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Nexus-4-GreatShield-Proximity-Sensor.jpg\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A few days in, I am pretty satisfied with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00AIA27VW\/?tag=37prime-20\" target=\"_blank\">GreatShield Matte Screen Protector<\/a>.
