The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is a flagship phone, and its stunning display deserves the best protection. Enter the Neo Flex Optical HD (AFL07494) screen protector, a flexible film option promising durability and compatibility with the in-screen fingerprint sensor. After several weeks of testing, I’m ready to share my comprehensive review, covering installation, everyday performance, and long-term durability.

Features & Specifications

The package includes two screen protectors, a welcome bonus given the nature of installation. The “flexible film” description is accurate – it’s not a rigid glass protector, which could be a plus or minus depending on your preferences. The claimed in-screen fingerprint sensor compatibility is a key selling point, and it’s something I rigorously tested.

Performance & Installation

The wet installation process, while initially daunting, proved surprisingly straightforward. Following the QR code instructions for a video tutorial was highly beneficial. I found the alignment tool quite helpful for precise placement. As promised, the bubbles did mostly disappear after about 24 hours, though I did notice a slight rainbow effect in certain lighting conditions for the first few days which completely vanished after 72 hours. The fingerprint sensor worked flawlessly after a clean installation. Importantly, make sure to remove any pre-existing screen protectors.

In daily use, the Neo Flex screen protector performed well. It’s noticeably smooth to the touch, and it doesn’t interfere with the responsiveness of the screen. I tested it under various conditions – intense sunlight, accidental drops, and frequent pocket contact – and it protected my screen. After a few weeks of use there is only minor scratching around the edges. The screen remained smudge free despite repeated use. The clarity is excellent; there’s virtually no noticeable reduction in the image quality.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Two protectors in the pack; Easy installation (with video guide); Fingerprint sensor compatibility; Good screen protection; Maintains screen responsiveness; Excellent clarity.
• Cons: Slight rainbow effect initially (disappeared after 24-72 hours); Minor scratching around edges after prolonged use; Wet installation may require patience.

Final Verdict

The Neo Flex Optical HD (AFL07494) screen protector provides a solid level of protection for your Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra’s display. While the initial installation requires patience and precision, the results are mostly positive. The compatibility with the in-screen fingerprint sensor is a major win, and the long-term protection it offers makes this a worthwhile investment. I would recommend this product to anyone seeking reliable screen protection for their S24 Ultra. While some minor scratching did eventually occur around the edges after several weeks of heavy use, it still provided substantial overall protection. Considering the 2 pack I found this acceptable.
