I’m looking for a screen protector for my 12 Pro. For my 11 I had the Apple store installed glass protector, but as far as I know they aren’t doing that this year. Are all glass protectors created equal? What are your favorites? I received free ones from the TMobile store but I have my doubts...

There are far better and cheaper screen protectors then the Belkin ones. The following two are examples.

Yes they are. Pricey, but perfect installs using the machine.
But by the looks of the photos they don't offer edge to edge coverage....
Also, it has been reported that the machine Apple uses to install the screen protector scratches the metal band surrounding the phone. There are posts about this.

Have to disagree with that. They are over priced and there are better cheaper ones out there.
Can’t agree. Yes the install is well done but if you know how to do it or can find other service to do it there are better cheaper options out there.
There is a reviewer on YouTube that tested the Whitestone dome. It was very difficult to remove because of the glue Whitestone uses. Watch 9:00 in the video.
In that thread, I believe that particular Apple store either had the wrong size machine, or it was not set up properly. Other stores don’t seem to have a problem from what other members have reported at various locations.
So is this a good screen protector? Are there better ones out there?
Spigen works well as does Zagg. I haven’t tried the generic obscure name ones from Amazon.
in my opinion the best protectors are the ones without the notch cutout.
Get these every year and installed by Apple, my whole family does and never have been a scratch. I don’t know how anyone installs any other screen protect without the machine. Too hard and would rather just go with no screen protector.
