Man, have the Torras on since the factory cover was removed. Hope this does not screw up my screens coating :(
The adhesive on screen protectors will NOT damage the oleophobic coating on the iPhone screen. It will have to be something abrasive like... disinfecting wipes or alcohol pads of a certain concentration.
 
Anyone just have their screen protector installed at the Apple Store? Is the Belkin (I believe) that they use a decent option? I upgrade phones every 4-5 years and honestly the screen protector install is my least favorite part of the experience.

I removed the Torras OrigArmor on my 17 pro yesterday due to many micro scratches that were bugging the crap out of me. I put a cheap temporary one on until the new one I ordered comes in tomorrow. Never heard of this brand BossKiss but it’s currently on Amazon and on sale for $12.23 for a 2 pack and says it has 3d curved edges and doesn’t cover any pixels. It also has anti glare, anti blue light, and no rainbow effect. Worth a try for $13.00. I’ll let you know how it is when I get it installed tomorrow.

Whenever I get a new phone, I get the screensaver installed at the Apple Store. I go for the Belkin option they have in-store. the one that they use their install tool for. I don't even remove the factory installed "screen peel", before installation, to avoid dust / dirt on the screen.

In my experience, Apple is very good with their policy for screen saver installation. They get it right or they will make it right. I have not had any problems with the Belkin screen protector. YMMV :)

Is this the same one that people have been complaining about micro-scratches?

Feel kinda bad for that one guy, who was one of the first, to complain about micro-scratches on his OrigArmor, and no one believed him, with some accusing him of being negligent.

Now reports shows that it was actually true, that this screen protector scratches very easily.

More than likely unless they have addressed any quality concerns. To be honest I haven’t seen any micro scratches on mine and Im on Day 12 now.
