Looks great I ordered mine!!! Thanks for the pictures!!! Finally someone got it right!!!Not sure if these images are ok. Damn dust and iPad Air camera. This is the "new" Anker non edge to edge SP on my 6S. No halo?
Why would there be a halo of it's non edge to edge?Not sure if these images are ok. Damn dust and iPad Air camera. This is the "new" Anker non edge to edge SP on my 6S. No halo?
Because the screen protector hangs off the edge of the flat part of the screen (where it curves down to the chassis.
That would be an edge to edge screen protector, would it not?
Did you see the photos? It's most definitely not hanging off any edges.
Hi. I just received ice max 3d and applied it well. But my top and bottom black sides of screen is clicking when i push hard. Its like the screen protector didnt stick both black sides. Is that normal or my protector has defect?

Because the screen is curved and glass protectors don't adhere properly to 6s and 6s Plus screens.
I think that's normal by design on this SP. Several other users report the same thing over there on the Ice Max thread. Mine also did this too slightly.
I don't see this number anywhere either.
3D Touch doesn't seem to be affected though.
Have you tried any of the other popular brands (Spigen, Benks, Ice Max, etc.) before this Anker one? If so, how does it compare to those? Thanks again!
Ive tried offerings from Spigen, Maxboost, Zagg Glass, Zagg Glass Luxe, Phantom by Cupert, Daswise, and several other smaller name brands and they all had the same "halo effect" around the perimeter edges. Good thing Amazon was able to accommodate refunds on most of these. 3D Touch didn't seem to be affected on any of these. I can't really compare these since I simply ended up taking them off after noticing the adhesion issue.
The Ice Max held up pretty good for several weeks until the bottom left corner started lifting.
This one from Anker is the first one that seems to properly adhere and seal all the way around on the 6S screen. Looks like someone finally got it right.
At first I thought it was user error on my part, but everything has been lining up perfectly on the install. I knew from day 1 the screens on the 6 and the 6S changed by the smallest mm.
It sucks to say but looks like many, many vendors are just marketing their older iPhone 6 SP's for the newer 6S without actually testing them. I guess since Apple claimed the screen dimensions didn't change they just slapped a "6/6S Compatible" sticker on the product and called it a day.

So I got my 6S a couple of weeks ago and just have a Belkin plastic screen protector on it. Of course it's scratched already, is there ANY glass screen protectors (edge to edge or not) that fit without the halo? I saw the new Anker one but they don't ship to Australia 
I'm wondering if perhaps there are no glass screen protectors that work correctly. What about using a clear edge to edge film protector and then putting the glass on top?
See my photos of the new, revised Anker S/P on my 6S. This is the first non edge to edge one that seems to actually work correctly.
It does. Looks like you can't win with these things as if it's not one thing it's another.
@danny8200 have you or anyone else on here tried this Anker glass one you mentioned? I can tell the non-edge-to-edge isn't my thing, but curious about the glass version...
