Torras came in, was relatively easy to install. I had some bubbles and needed to use the scraper, otherwise no issues. Following the instructions insured no dirt under the protector.

I did also install the ESR on my wife’s 14 Pro yesterday and I liked their installation cradle better where you push slowly down the center, it gave a totally bubble free fit. Plus the cradle itself held onto the phone better than the Torras one.

Ultimately those are all minor issues, the Torras went on fine, looks and feels great, and I can barely tell I even have it on.
now if you have both ESR and Torras, which one do you prefer and why? thanks.
im still not decided on which one to get, but tend more to get the Torras one.

anyone here ordered Benks' Ultra Shield HD Screen Protector or GlassArmor Sapphire Coating Screen Protector?

Would like to hear the review on the black bezel and quality
I ordered GlassArmor Sapphire and GlassWarrior Sapphire, both of them had black bezel obstructing issues. Contacted the support and haven't got any response yet.

They both seem good to me. The ESR costs less and as far as I can tell doesn’t have black borders, the Torras does. Both seem equally good once applied. Both claim to have 9H hardness. I won’t know about durability until we’ve both had them on longer. If they perform equally well I’d say just get the ESR because it costs less.

Just put on my Spigen EZ Fit. Pretty easy just had to lift the screen on one side what I though was lint but just a small air pocket. Squeegeed right out.

Thank you for sharing. Had one ordered and just cancelled.

Looks great! Though, i'm not sure about that action button. How does it feel pressing the action button? That hole seems pretty deep, wish they went with a button there as well.

How does the Flolab compare to the Torras.
According to MobileReviewsEh on YouTube, the Flolab is the best, most durable tempered glass screen protector. He didn’t say specifically if he tested the Torras but he is very thorough in testing as many brands as he can.

He used to post in depth videos showing all the brands and products in a category that he was testing, and footage of the tests themselves, and then outcomes for each. Lately he’s switched to much shorter videos with just a recommendation and brief explanation.

I wish he’d go back to his old style of video because it was useful to know what else he has tested and how they fared. While these new videos are straight to the point, they don’t have the same depth of information as the old ones.

All that being said, even if the Flolab is twice as durable as the Torras, which I suspect it isn’t, you get two screen protectors with Torras for less than the cost of one Flolab after shipping.

I think he wanted to ask if the screen protector is matte.. seeing the video I would say that it's not, and it's so nice that it almost looks like the display itself.

Saw some people posting on Reddit about the flolabs fitting poorly on the 15. Official response from flolab is that there’s a level of variance in the curved bezel on every phone. Sounds kind of bs to me, but they claim they’re making a 3d model to address these “variances” that is set to be released on September 30th.

Interesting. I installed (the Pro) on 2 different phones with no issues. I have another one coming (the max) for our daughters 15 Pro. I’ll report back.
