This combo works= iCarez and Jetech

Risked it by removing the pricey Zagg and went with iCarez. Can’t even tell that I have a glass screen protector is on!

Case may be the culprit. What did you have on?
[doublepost=1512319992][/doublepost]Can the plastic installation guide tray used for other glass protector brands? Let’s say one doesn’t use the plastic tabs stuck to the top of the protector. I often grab the ends of the glass itself to install.

Fyi, an updated version of the iCarez Glass Protector is now available. 2.5D and 3D glass now comes with an installation tray guide. I'm waiting on delivery for the new version.

Mine is coming today from Amazon. How do I know if I am getting the new version or not?

I Believe the new version just came out a day or two ago. Product description and picture will show the installation tray.

Price will also tell. 2 pack with tray will be $10.99 instead of $7.99.
 
Thanks. I ordered the old one. I still have my installation tray from my other screen protector. I’m assuming that would work?
 
Just installed my icarez red box. Went on easily although the installation try I had wasn’t a good fit. I felt the i blason had smoother edges but perhaps the white box icarez one is of equal. So far so good...
 
Anyone know if the 3D icarez will work with the Apple leather case?

Edit: they answered me on amazon and recommended the 2.5

I just received my icarez white box (3D). After going through about 6 now, I can say this one is the best fit, feel and seems heavy duty and durable. Also was the hardest to install as it must be centered for bubbles not to go away. They should include an installation tray.


I just tried it with the Apple leather case and it does fit. It might not most perfect fit and it’s very snug, but it definitely does fit.

I’ve given up on trying to use skins as they are nearly impossible to install without blemishes and eventually peel after a few months. Not to mention the two previous protectors I shattered.

The new version, $10.95 2.5 and $16.95 3D through Amazon, comes with a tray.

i got a 3D Icarez (white pack) and quite disappointed TBH.
it fits ok, but almost one half of the screen remained with air underneath
and never went away after a few hours,
no matter how hard i tried to "Help".
too complicated to send it back to the US etc. FAIL.

That’s a huge air pocket. Are you using a case with a lip? See any dust or particle stuck underneath

no it's not that. it's like almost the whole right half of the screen. not a pocket or dust or case interfering.
seems like the screen protector itself is not perfectly straight or something.
it just doesn't work (after giving it some time, trying again and again etc).
anyway, got another brand around the same price.
(i believe there are quite many brands, manufactured at the same place and mostly just packaged differently ;) )

I had that with my iCarez 3D as well. I reapplied several times and eventually I was able to get it perfect except a couple bubbles in two corners. After a couple days and rubbing on them here and there they disappeared completely. Definitely takes more effort to get the 3D ones perfect, key is not to give up.

The 2D are much much easier.
