My ESR Amorite is doing great and feels slicker than last years. Now my Flolabs finally arrived. I liked them more because they were slicker and more oleophopic last year. Debating keeping the ESR on until it’s starts smudging as the coating wears off or just going straight to the Flolab

Just installed my GlassGo. What an amazing protector to install borders on the right hand side of the screen ever so slight overlap the screen. I’m talking 0.0005% the width of a hair- I can see the L’s in the camera frame but the left hand side ones more so. I’m gonna run with it and see how it goes as I much prefer the hapless face to case. Have registered Torras too so hopefully they’ll send me a FOC replacement when they revise them!

Torras Diamond Shield is great.

Thanks to all who recommended it.
does yours go edge to edge? I ordered it early on prior to receiving the phone and am pairing with one of their thin fit cases and there is an ever slightly gap between the. doesn't interfere with viewing or functionality, but it is collecting a bit of lint around the edges. I'm coming from an s20 and always used the standard film protector that the phone is shipped with, but figured I'd try a glass screen protector this go round. just wondering about your experience. cheers

what was wrong with the Torras?

The GlassGo is the Torras.

Its quite known that if you register the warranty and mention if the borders overlap the screen at all then they’ll add to a list to get a FOC replacement when the revised batches are out

I’ll need to register my Torras although it’s quite perfect, but I’ll def take a couple more protectors if they update them. I’ll never go back to ESR after the way they handled this. I dont work for Torras, but this is honestly the best screen protector that I’ve ever used…

What have ESR done?
 
What have ESR done?
Their 15 Pro protector was too small and then they tried to give people a small % off instead of a refund. I’ve used ESR for years and liked them although their oleophobic coating is terrible and rubs off with a month or two. Just terrible customer service though with the 15 Pro Protectors.

What is wrong with spigen? Since I applied this screen protector my phone has been missing types from the keyboard. Frustrating since this is the first time this have ever happened. Is it the phone then or the spigen protector?
 
Just installed the Torras screen protector and the top seems lower than it should be. This was the one that’s already attached to the orange frame guide. Is this normal or should it be touching the top microphone?

Mine looks like that and I thought it was misaligned but when I put a case on the phone it looks like the edge of the case perfectly meets the edge of the screen protector, so I am guessing that’s by design.

You don’t even need to set it as a wallpaper, you can open it in photos and it works the same. It works on the 6.1” screens too.

PS. don’t do it or you’ll see more than the camera corner covered by the Torras 😱

I’ll keep it on until they release the updated version but then I’ll try the new one they send me.
Agreed. Shows covers on the bottom of my phone and also the right side. Makes it look worse than the camera app test.

I did not have this experience. The problem with my versions of Spigen's EZ Fit were that dust particles obviously accumulated at the edges of the glas, which I was not able to remove (see attachment). In other words, the dust particles literally stick to the edges, which was never the case with the previous versions (e.g. iPhone 14 Pro Max). Literally the edges from the glas were sticky. I may have just received a defective product, but it was the case with both glasses that were in the package.

I have now switched to Spigen's Alignmaster version for the Pro Max. However, I cannot recommend this either, as the edges of the glass cover the screen. It's simply not a perfect fit.

So I'm still looking for alternatives. ;)

My Flolab Onetime Max edge to edge had bad halo on my 15 Pro.

Flolab said like they did with others that not all 15 Pros are the same since some don’t have this issue. I think it’s all the edge to edge clear versions.

They said they would send me out a revised 3D version

My Spigen did this…. My Glassgo is also doing it. Frustrating as hell
 
This is why I really despise rounded edges on screens. The Torras I put on covers the edges a tiny bit on both sides and it seems a bit higher up than normal, but overall it's ok. It would be great if Apple had just kept the straight screen though, had zero issues with the 14 Pro last year.

I’ve used Spigen GlasTR for the last four generations of iPhones and have never had a problem with the quality of the glass or installation, but this years abomination of a product has left me in awe. I’ve purchased THREE kits and finally found success in the six and final installation. And even then, there’s a speck of dust underneath the screen but at this point, I’ve given up on it.

And just like your experience, seems like the edging of this years glass is “jagged” and not cut as cleanly as previous years, thus attracting a crapload of dust to it.

What a horrible experience this year with Spigen.

Please let us know how the new 3D version is when it comes in. Really looking for something edge to edge since I’m caseless!

I have the Torras on my 15PM.

I don’t see any issues with the camera or alignment of the screen protector.

I’m using the caudabe synthesis case and it’s a perfect fit.

Thank goodness I’m not ocd about it. But maybe if I look for imperfections which I’m not trying to do.

Just happy that the torras fits well

There’s a white edge, a portion of the screen protector that doesn’t fully adhere to the screen… it leaves a sort of halo along/above the black border of the protector.
I have the exact same issue!!!!! And no matter what I try, it reappears again!

I switched from the ESR to the TORRAS Diamond Shield, the fit seems perfect but the amount of dust that sticks to the edges is insane. And I cannot remove it, I’ve been wiping and rubbing and scraping all along the edge but it doesn’t go away. It seems that the edge is actually sticky so the dust adheres. And the edge is sharp and angled inwards, it is not curved, so the dust gets stuck under the lip of the protector.

Yep, I have that too. Had it on my Spigen EZ as well.

I'm living with it and wiping regularly until they ship me my FOC revised version. I havent paid for these either; Amazon failed to deliver to my work on Friday. They told me to reorder to my home address and then contact them when I receive those. I did and they ended up refunding both orders as a good will.
 
I’ve never used a screen protector that didn’t get dust stuck to the edges before, but for me, the Torras gets the least I’ve had. Maybe difference in the batches? I use it with the FW case so maybe it gets more dust if you go naked.
