6S/6s+ glass protector discussion [Merged]

If anybody is still looking for imos 3D edge to edge glass I've seen them on ebay for as low as $35! I think they are the best glass with long lasting oleophobic coating!
 
I only paid $7 for my Spigen glass SP. same as I had on my last phone. It survived multiple drops face down on pavement. Not a scratch after a year. Got the same one for my current phone. So far one face down drop, again with not a scratch.
 
Finally received my replacement G.D.SMITH Ice Max 3D screen protector.

The edges are curved, so it is definitely 3D as advertised.

It doesn't sit completely flush, leaving just a small gap which can be a lint/dust issue but can easily be cleaned with a micro fibre cloth.

The glass and edges feels very solid and smooth just like the stock iPhone glass. The installation took about 10 minutes, did the steam shower trick, so there's hardly any speck of dust or lint. Had issues with air bubbles but instead of asking for a replacement (like most of you do on here), I used a micro fibre cloth and GENTLY applied pressure, got the bubbles out successfully which probably took another 30 minutes. Patience is key to a successful install. Remember that, kids.

For $12 bucks, I'd take this over the $42+ iMOS Solid EX 3D screen protector any day which is way thicker and leaves gaps as well. Will I purchase this product again in the future? Definitely!

Here are a "few" more pictures with the Apple Silicon Case in (Product) Red. My iPhone is a regular 6s by the way.

#gapgate anyone? It's not that bad... a business card won't fit, only a sheet of paper will though.

Yup, no adhesive (actually just the bottom part of the home button, not a big deal). There's adhesive around the proximity sensor and earpiece.

Hate iMOS, their screen protectors are very thick and overpriced.
 
Hi guys, here is an essential question...
Can these two match on my iPhone6Splus?
1. Daswise screen protector
2. Spigen Liquid Crystal
Im asking because i have a small doubt that the Spigen case will be able to fit if the Daswise glass screen protector is there, it might make the iPhone thicker. Has any one got this combination?

Where'd you find this for $12? I'm seeing it for around $18 on Amazon. I just dropped and cracked mine and need to get another one. I don't think they'd send me another for free under the circumstances.

Nevermind. Sorry. I see your other post. I think I'd rather spend a few more bucks and get it in a day or two instead of 20 :)

Here's the link to their official store on AliExpress: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/32379159270/32379159270.html

Make sure to order via the AliExpress mobile app to get it for $12. And also make sure to keep an eye on the screen protector, it went for about $8 or $9 for about 12 hours last weekend!

Are the protectors from this company actually 3d. They fold over the edge. All of the cheap ones I have tried that say they are 3d are not. Is G.D.Smith the same?

Seems like only Cinder is really 3D. And perhaps Imos.

Thanks. Just ordered one for my mom for $10.50.

By the way, it arrived on Friday, March 3, so that's just over a month from ordered to delivered, for those wondering.
[doublepost=1488808042][/doublepost]Also, I've got a Thanotech edge to edge (non 3D) glass protector on the way. We'll see how it does. I'm tired of the edges on my Orzly 3D coming up under my K11.

I am sorry but you are wrong. I just put this on and it is very clearly a 2.5D protector. Hold the edge of your phone up to a bright light and you will see the gap and that the curve is actually an edge. That gap collects link, and junk that could scratch the edge.

You're correct, I stand corrected. I've tried every single edge to edge screen protectors out there and they all have gaps regardless whether it's a 2.5D or a 3D screen protector. To tell you the truth, there's no perfect 3D edge to edge screen protector out there. You're better off with a non edge to edge screen protector.

I'm still rocking the same screen protector by the way, there are a few scratches here and there (about 4, yes I counted) but they're barely noticeable.
 
I just ordered these for my 6s. 3 for $6. Hard to beat that deal. Really easy to apply and look really good. Can't comment on how they hold up to drops, not interested in finding out.

I noticed this, too. I actually washed mine off with water and a little soap and re-applied it. Worked pretty well.
