Just thought I'd share this with you guys, I found on amazon a $3.99 tempered glass screen protector. Its very similar to the benks glass, just a bit thicker. It says 0.26mm, I feel its more like .3mm. I decided to just buy it, and I love it. For the price it absolutely cant be beat. Here it is with my veil xt, although it also fits with my rhino shield bumper.

Looks real good. :cool:

How does it lay on the edges? I noticed the listing says it leaves no gaps around the edges.

Definitely leaves a small gap. Funny the description says no gap but one of the photos in the listing says it leaves a gap. It leaves a small gap and has no overhang on the edge. I would say it's exactly like the benks .30mm

That's a great deal. Awesome pictures. Thanks for sharing. Just bought one to try out myself.

I had an iloome for my 6 plus at one point, but it shattered on a hard fall on the pavement (phone was in a case). It did what it's supposed to do though and didn't leave a scratch on the screen.

I'm using another glass protector at the moment, but the one you posted looks to have much better coverage. Nice find!

Just got mine in. Can confirm that it fits perfectly with the Speck CandyShell Grip case. The gap in the protector leaves JUST the right amount room so that the glass doesn't push up against the case when the volume buttons are used.

I have a Ringke Fusion somewhere in house too and will throw it on to test whenever I find it. I had another random "full coverage" protector from eBay at one point, and that one didn't work with the Ringke case at all.

I'm probably gonna buy another one of these though just to keep handy in case this one ever cracks. So far, this has been the best and cheapest glass protector I've had to date for my 6 plus.

We'll see how it holds up...

Great Protector, the quality seems better than the $35 protector i have on my wifes phone.

The only issue i have noticed is that random bubbles appear, and also along the bottom you can press on the screen and they will disappear but they come back within a few hours, like its not sticking in some places.
