Has anyone tried orzly tempered glass?

Thanks for the photos! Not sure if its the angle the pics were taken or not but it seems that there is edge lift all around the glass itself. Is there any edge lift?

Yes, it does overhang the curved edge all the way around by approx 1mm. I think it's either that or it would have to stop short of covering the visible screen width ways which is worse in my opinion.

... to be honest, I think that overhang would drive my OCD insane!!! :eek:
If I get the slightest air bubble or bit of dust in a screen shield, I have to get the bugger out so using that Orzly screen protector and continually seeing the 1mm gap around the edge all the time (which would be very visible as the area is slightly lighter in colour where it overhangs!), would slowly drive me insane!!!!!:eek:

Wesbar, thanks for the pics.

Can you post a few pictures with the screen turned on so that we can see how much wider the protector is than the display? Can you also take a photo of the bottom of the phone so that we can see how thick the protector is?

Here you go. can't get a pic with the case on as i took it back as the leather was coming away!

The slight lift at the edge of the protector is less obvious on my white iPhone, but if it becomes the dust magnet that I suspect it might, it may become more prominent against the white.

Feels much better than the spigen crystal film I was using though.
 
It looks bit worse on the 6 the overhung is bit bigger

Daaamn, what's with the white edge on the last set of pictures? :eek:

wesbar's pictures shows an almost invisible edge.
 
Thanks Wesbar for the additional pics.

Its really strange how much more overhang there is in artiik's pictures than in wesbar's. I was actually ok with the overhang in wesbar's, as it may not be too prominent on a white phone. But Artik's is just way too much.
 
I've had this protector on for a couple of days and today I noticed it has cracked at the edge of the screen. It's probably no coincidence that the crack has occurred at the edge where the protector will not adhere due to the curvature, this possibly makes it more susceptible to chips and cracks. The feel of the glass and the fit around the home button and speaker are really good though.

Got mine yesterday.
Looks just like the photos artiik posted above on the 6 plus.
The one we got for my wife's 6 is much smaller and almost doesn't cover the screen. Needs 1-2 more mm to cover.
Mine also cracked around the edges where the glass doesn't adhere well. Seems to be a weak point. I have emailed Orzly to see what they say. Cracks in less that 24 hours. I belt pouch carry the phone. Seems weak.
 
what are you guys doing about the overhang? i just received mine today from amazon for my 6 and it looks just like artiik's

I also received mine today. But I received a MIME yesterday that I already installed and I'm glad I received the MIME first. The Orzly is much bigger than the MIME and the MIME is right to the edge of the curve.

Keep the Mime on. I just returned two of the Orzly due to the screen protector being too large and had the edge lift.
