I never used to have a screen protector until I had kids. Two toddlers who love to pick up and drop my phone = otterbox case and glass screen protector.
This has been my MO as well. Typically buy a 2-pack initially but rarely buy another once those both break.I'm on the fence about this. My pattern has been to apply the screen protector for early in the phone's life, but as the years go by (I may go 3-4 years between upgrades) and the phone's replacement value decreases, I eventually don't replace the screen protector when/if it breaks.
i have this one too. fits great and was easy to install. only a small opening for the speaker/ear piece. very happy with it.The Bodyguardz Pure 2 fits perfectly. The size is a little larger than the display so you can use just about any case. The borders are no longer black and it looks better. Very very smooth edges that work well with a case and aren’t an issue if you are case less.
I have use Spigen on iPhone 8+, regular iPhone 8 and iPhone XR and 11. Perfect fit on all of them. Not sure why you are saying that they could not get it right on iPhone SE. i have it now on iPhone 12, and as usual installation was a breeze and fit is perfect.I am thinking of going with Spigen. They couldn’t get it right with the SE 2020. Maybe they will do better with the flat design on the mini.
The new SE has curved glass. Hardly any of the protectors fit it properly. Spigen on the original SE is flawless.I have use Spigen on iPhone 8+, regular iPhone 8 and iPhone XR and 11.

Installing Spigen screens is a breeze with provided installation kit. On Amazon there plenty of other brands that will come with installation kit. Definitely cheaper option then buying it from Apple Store.Heard good things about how easy the Spigen protectors are to fit with the template. I stress out big time installing them (in a steamy bathroom) so hope the template is better than the others I've used.
I got the full screen one as I prefer without cut out for the notch.
I had it on 8, 8+, XR and 11 and those have curved glass, Spigen protectors had perfect fit, no lifting and perfect protection. Unless what you are talking about is edge to edge screen protector (covering all the glass to metal edges). Then yes, it was not doing it. On iPhone 12 it is almost edge to edge, there is maybe 1-2 mm gap between screen protector edge and metal edges.The new SE has curved glass. Hardly any of the protectors fit it properly.

Oh, OK, hopefully you had just bad luck with it. On my mom's iPhone 8 Spigen protector is perfect. I think that might have have gotten bad sample. Good luck with 12, hopefully no issues.Spigen on the new SE had a bad halo effect.
