Found glass screen protector that covers the iPhone 6 curved edge

Wouldn't buy one of these screen savers until I actually saw it on somebodies iPhone 6/6+ While the curved edges sound exciting their practicality may leave something to be desired

Hi guys! I want to drop in and say that our manufacturing issue has been resolved and we should be getting out the pre-orders out in October! Also, we'll need to know which color you want, because we forgot to ask you first :( Sorry about that!

Enjoy the weekend everyone!

Any idea how us UK buyers can purchase?
 
following this thread to see the photos.. I've ordered mine and told them about the discussions here. Happy to see them here too! :)
 
the japanese site images seem to indicate the protector is going to hang over the edge of the curve.. seriously that's not going to work if that's true. It will get caught on things.

The other link just before it shows a protector that will cover the whole screen, is beveled .. but now I'm wondering if that's how the iloome ones are going to be as well.. beveled tapered edge to meet the curve but not really bend around the curve. yeah this is going to be interesting.

I emailed iloome to ask specifically if the protector is in fact flat OR if it bent at the edges to hug the front... they didn't answer. UPDATE.. they just answered me and it does lay flat.. guess the bevel edge somehow will make it work. I would think a case will protect any tiny edge. That being said I kind of like the idea of filling that 1cm gap somehow. time will tell, hope I made a good choice.

I believe that the Japanese one fills the gap between glass and the screen with 0.1mm transparent silicone so the glass won't be hanging over the edge of the curve. I would be interested in waiting for reviews on this one.

Me too. iLoome will be flat, they just told me, with a beveled edge. Filling the gap sounds good. guess we wait and see reviews on all of these.
 
Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you so much for your purchase of ScreenMate Tempered Glass Screen Protector with CurveProtect™ for the Apple iPhone 6 and/or iPhone 6 Plus!

We’re happy to announce that we are currently in production for our first batch of ScreenMate for the iPhone 6 and should be shipped out to you shortly!

At this time, due to our short-sightedness, we need your response whether you’d like to receive the Arctic White version (for Silver and Gold iPhone 6s) or the Onyx Black version (for Space Gray), as these are the colors for the outer borders of the protector.

WE REQUIRE YOUR RESPONSE IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT YOU RECEIVE THE CORRECT MODEL OF SCREENMATE FOR THE IPHONE 6! You may leave your responses via replying to this email.

Please be advised that while we are scheduled to send out pre-orders on October 6th, there may be slight delay due to the sheer amounts of order that we have received. However, we assure you that your order WILL BE SHIPPED OUT during the week of October 6th. We sincerely apologize for any potential delay that may occur.

Thank you again for choosing iloome and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Best regards and sincerely,

Brendon

I can't really tell where the sides of the protector are? anyway you can do a couple more closeups.. maybe lay a black edge one on a white front phone just so we can see how the edges work?

I'm very concerned about what looks like the bevel is starting at the edge of the screen. Is there any halo effect? Is that what looks like a border raised so you can feel it from the top? So many questions! LOL

wow thanks for the fast request photo! yes that does help.. now my question though, is the top perfectly flat? what happens at the very edge? I bet more photos would be appreciated.. especially showing detail closeup of the corners maybe from the side view

oh just send my order and I'll shut up hehehe :)

Not at all! I'm just using my crappy Android phone (I know, I know, but we sell products for other phones too) so it can't really capture the details on it, but I can assure you the top is perfectly flat. The glass is slightly rounded at the edge for more comfort. The corners doesn't look any different from a side view either.

Please let me know if you have more questions and I'll be happy to answer them! :)

Do you think we will all love it? :) Last question.. when exactly are they shipping our preorders and will we get tracking info?

I think y'all will love it, but you know, if ANYONE is unhappy with their order, we have 100% happiness guarantee in form of 30-day No Question Asked return policy.

As for shipping, it's scheduled for October 6th, but it's probably going to be sent throughout the week due to one reason:

There's A LOT (I mean, A LOT of pre-orders) and not enough time and people to send it all out in one day. We're trying to figure it out, but it might be slightly delayed, so we apologize in advance if this happens :( But YES WE HAVE TRACKING! :)

This definitely helps show us how it's going to look. From the naked eye, it seems to look like it will be a lot cleaner than the current glass protectors out there. The question is, will it fit with some cases on it? Is there anyway you can try with some cases and report back? I have a Spigen Air Skin and if I am hopeful it will fit with that.

That's a film though, not a hard glass protector like the iloome, correct?

Skinomi is a film and not a very good one. I had one and ripped it off as it degrades the quality of the screen. The glass protectors are definitely better from a visibility perspective.

I mentioned on the other thread that some cases will work (i-Blason clear hybrid is being used by my boss at the moment), but we don't recommend bulky cases like Otterbox.
