That’s the one. It says 2021 6.7Just received my Screen protector Spigen from Amazon!
Zero mention of iPhone 13 pro max on the box
Hope im not in for a bad surprise.

I simply hate it 🤣 Gonna remove it today. It removes glare, yeah, and it's great under direct sun, but it blurs and dulls everything. The text and photos becomes fuzzier, the contrast and pop of colours is reduced. Go for it if you really need the no glare, or else better stick to glass. I feel this is polycarbonate, it's very thin and not very protective of the screen in case of falls. Just scratches.
I just installed the Spigen GLAStR EZ FIT (the one with the big hole for the notch) and wow, amazing. The screen now is just marvellous, clear, defined, shiny. Was so happy to tear away that belkin matte protector.
The first Spigen screen I installed was defective though, it had a smear of grease underneath one side, which I surely didn't do. The second one was perfect though and the installation was pretty easy. I don't know how I managed to avoid dust but I'm so happy now.

Anyone try the Spigen Edge to Edge? Unfortunately Spigen got rid of the notchless version of their normal glas.tr protectors and I much prefer the seamless look. This one covers the whole face of the phone but I'm curious how the fake black bezel on this protector looks:

This is what I posted in another screen protector thread....
I used the Spigen Glas.tR Ez Fit last year on my 12 Pro Max. It doesn't cover the notch. This year I ordered the same product again plus the ESR Armorite which does cover the notch.
I tried to install the ESR first because it looks high quality. You get two in the pack. I couldn't however get either installed without many air bubbles and dust caught under the screen. I wasn't very happy with the product.
The Spigen Glas.tR's are incredible easy to install. It only took me one try last year and one try just a few minutes ago. Their installation tray which just snaps on is incredibly super easy. I'd highly recommend them for most people. I would say more people than not are going to have trouble with the ESR's. Now I see people walking around with iPhone's with screen protectors that have bubbles and dust caught underneath and it doesn't seem to bother them. It would drive me absolutely crazy though. If ESR can improve their installation tray and make it as easy as Spigen I'd go with them.

That looks nice but it doesn't appear to have the same super easy installation tray that the Glas.tR does. I wouldn't buy it because of that.Anyone try the Spigen Edge to Edge?

Here is an interesting review of a bunch that I ran across.

I picked up a JETech screen protector for my 13 Pro. I swear it’s making the screen have some motion blur. It’s not as smooth as before and when I limit the refresh rate to 60 it’s even more noticeable.
Has anyone had similar issues with their screen protectors? I might install the second protector to see if the first one was bad. If the second one has the same problem I’ll pick up one of the brands everyone recommended.

In the Settings app. Then Accessibility>Motion>Limit Frame Rate
Last year I would not have recommended doing it yourself as the glass was so precise that if you are a tad bit off you will get light bleed. But Belkin decided to be generous this year and have the screen protector glass cover more of the device. So even if you're slightly off you should be okay.
Thank you I did not know about top of range screen protector as "Shellrus sapphire" or "Hoda", I'm definitely going to buy them as soon they are out via Amazon UK.

Shellrus decided to stop selling on Amazon US and UK. I believe the reason had to do with people who messed up on the installs abusing Amazon's return/exchange policy. hoda offers a similar sapphire screen protector. I purchased both out of curiosity.
hoda has the easier install since they have an installation tray similar to spigen EZ FIT and it has an anti-static adhesive. Shellrus just comes with the same alignment tool all these other screen protectors include. Shellrus must've switched to invisible ink because unlike previous generations I do NOT see their watermark. hoda has a tiny/faint watermark on the top left that I don't even notice.

I did a quick research and you're right about that. Can you see the watermark when display bright white background?
