Exposed red bezel on the 850: Does this make it more suceptible to getting scratched off?

I just checked out an 850 at Fry's and the red around the edges was scraped off, looking like a cheap mirror... Handle with care.

From scratches on the screen, yes, but not from breaking or cracking. This is not a case.

No it is not it. Now I do not know if the screen will get scratched if you put credit cards in the credit card slot this I have not tried hope this helps.

This protector shield is not colored, it is transparent. So whatever scratches you had on your unit still shows, but I do recommend this protector shield on you to prevent further damage on the surface of your unit. I' m telling you honestly that all of my family's electronics (cellphones,tablets,laptops) were having this kind of protector shield and still having no regrets after several years now. I hope this will help your decision.

The way it was explained to me by my computer guy who fixed my iPad. The screen is basically stuck to LED which makes it almost impossible to separate the two without damaging the LED. That is why the repair is so expensive. Samsung wants like $299 to do the repair and he was in the same ballpark because of the cost and the screen/LED. I am gonna need you to clarify the bezel question. I still have mine if you want it. Mine is red. Just text me your address 757-289-5381. My screen was the only thing cracked as well. Feel free to call me.

Forgot to answer about the bezel spacer. I never needed to replace any on the ones I did so I'm not sure if it would be beneficial in you circumstance depending on the severity of your cracked screen

Yes, I actually did it myself. The silver bezel looks good, but the black out does also!!

I agree with SRR - you just have to be sure to get it inserted all the way to the rubber boot, and remove it carefully as well. (I have scratch marks too, because I was hasty and didn't listen to my own advice - go figure)

Removed the space bar and looked underneath the keys. There is not any sort of protective coating/layer underneath like you might find on a laptop for example. It does not appear to be, but the honest answer is I don't know.

You will get some glare. Still worth it given the led screen is protected and looks not bad

I'm also looking at silver Asus laptops. can anyone clarify whether the silver paint is durable? is it semi-scratch proof? if not, do you see faint gray or black lines through the white paint when you do scratch it? do the 8 edges get super scratched and you're left with gray-spotted or black-lined edges? does the silver paint looked matte when the paint is really worn or does it still look kind of glossy? Thanks !

I don't notice mine doing either of those things... especially scratch... I guess it could show fingerprints on the back but the front has texture.

It shouldn't be a problem. It surrounds the bezel the whole back is open and exposed.

Mine is like brand new and I've had it since they were released. I also have the phantom 820 case from when that one was released in 2012 and the window is still scratchless. But I take really good care of my pcs. I do, however, travel with them periodically but I wrap them in a blanket before driving off.

I just purchased the 750. My set has the "Halo Effect" and it is very noticablable in a darkened room. I went to the Samsung web site and had an online chat with a tech. He told me it needed serv. I filled out the service form online and a local Samsung service tech called to confirm the problem. He told me that Samsung has a new bezel that addresses this problem and he will order it and come to my home to change out the Bezel once he get it. My 750 was manufactured August of 2008. Hope this helps.

Anything will scratch it if you're not careful. If you're careful to stay off the glass, the only problem you might have is scratching the plastic bezel around the glass. Also, make sure to use enough heat to get the glass loose, but not so much you damage the LCD or electronics underneath. I suggest using a magnifier and a single-edge razor blade to get started. This tool I've found out is excellent for replacing the digitizer (pushing the plastic bezel into place under the aluminum). At first I didn't like it. Now it grows on me every time I use it.
