I've had halos with tzumi and Anker on my 6s plus. I think the issues is with the s models.

The weird issue is I put screen protectors on all day at my job on the 6s and they don't halo( the zagg and such) but on mine they do... I think some iPhones just have a much larger radius. I'm literally about to swap my iPhone. This is sickening.

Agreed.
It kind of reminds me of how Apple would explain during keynotes that during the assembly line process computers will instantly scan certain parts and then pick the correct sized parts to put in. Maybe each iPhone screen is a bit different and some curve down more than others? 😵
Just thinking out loud, either way it simply stinks from a protection standpoint. I have a newfound hatred for curved edges and really hope the next iPhone doesn't have them.

Every iPhone 6s has a 'different' screen. My GF has had 2 iPhones 6s, neither have haloed. I've had 2 iPhone 6s, both have haloed. All using the same brand of screen protectors. Every iPhone is just built differently, and I have pretty much given up hope on finding one that prevents the halo from occurring.
Wonder if its "chip-gate" related. Both of her phones, smaller samsung chip, no halo. Both of my phones have the TSMC, larger chipset, with halo. 🙄
No I'm not serious. But interesting thought, isn't it?

Been looking for a "no halo effect" tempered glass since the release of the 6s and I just found something interesting online. It's one that claims to not do this "halo" thing and I've watched like 3 videos of people reviewing it & didn't see any of this effect on their phones.
I don't know if someone has tried it out yet, but it seems to be only available on the UK which I'm so disappointed about. It's by a brand called "Anneks" and here it is http://www.amazon.co.uk/Invisible-T...8399279&sr=8-1&keywords=anneks+iphone+6s+plus
If any of you live in the UK, maybe give it a try and tell us..
I contacted the seller just to know if they could ship it to France but I don't think they will tell me it's possible..

It's not an edge to edge screen protector. I thought the halo problems were with the edge to edge glass screen protectors only ?

Nope.. I don't like edge to edge protectors so I've tried few "just screen protection" tempered glasses & I've always had the halo problem 🙁
Two godosmith in my house both went on perfect a white and black one both on 6s
I've had mine for 2 months and it's still perfect. Wife put hers on a few days ago and it's perfect. I had to take both off and adjust when I first put them on.
I even had to return my first 6s and when they gave me a new phone, I swapped the screen protector over to the new phone and boom perfect as well,
Must be a lucky one

Is the Anker still going good? I have 2 coming in today but I will need to remove my Tech21. The fit of the Tech21 is perfect but the feel is still plastic. Cost was also $$

I ordered one too, but as what others mentioned here in this thread, the border of it (colored black) is probably hiding the halos effect. I'll try it as soon as I get my delivery.
