I have the same issue with my 16 pro. Already wasted 3 spigen protectors and 1 vivid. Now I'm waiting to try again the replacement set of 2 of the spigen seller, in case the previous were just faulty products. I see good reviews for spigen glass from many 16pro users. I didn't expect to be such a pain in the @@@ to fit a simple screen protector, especially with a guide installer tool! What a waste of money! It is the first time to consider not using a protector at all!

I went to Apple Store to get one fitted. They wasted one but the second one was perfect and that’s the one I’m using since then.
 
I had same issue with Spigen, ESR and Tresley screen protectors. Just can't get the edges to stick. 9 screen protectors wasted. This one is ESR but Spigen was no better, just had bubbles on different side. Could be top, could be bottom. I hate these slightly curved screens for these reasons. I applied two protectors on iPhone 13 and 13 Pro yesterday, was a breeze.

Not saying it is the case. But occasionally some iPhone's have a defective warp screen.
