iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max Screen Protector

The Belkin one I had fitted in the Apple score isn't great. I can feel the edges when I swipe up to open the phone. Don't know whether to take it off and try Torras or not. Think is it cost about £35 and has a 12 month warranty....
 
I actually found the Belkin quite good in terms of quality of glass, with good transparency, quite good oleophobic coating that didn’t need wiping fingerprints all the time (contrary to what some reviews claimed on YouTube) and it is, if not the thinnest, one of the thinnest.

However, it doesn’t cover edge to edge and on top of that it doesn’t have rounded edges which makes it noticeable when swiping if you’re not wearing a case or the case you’re using has a very small lip.

I have the same experience with the Belkin on my 16 Pro Max, it's expensive but works really well.

So for iOS 26, you dont need to worry about the bezel and the L brackets in the camera lining up anymore. Now you gotta worry about the floating keyboard lining up.

I have tried flolab 3d, belkin, esr and most of the known brands. Baseus 3d is the best one.
The coverage of the screen and minimal black border that doesn’t cover any pixels.
The search is over, I bought 3 more packs of this just to have some spares.

I don’t think the Nillkin is worth it. It is an excellent glass (has always been top notch), but It does not have an installation tray and will be more difficult to install.
 
I've replaced 3 ESR ultra-tempered in 8 months and tired of doing that. The phone obviously falls once a week but this screen protector doesn't seem to be too strong to withstand those falls

For those who've had the Belkin installed in the Apple store for a while with frequent falls like mine, how long has it lasted you?
 
Hey guys,

What do you guys use to clean your iPhone screen, especially if you are using a screen protector? I know some screen cleaners can wear away the coating on the screen protector?

I know many people, including Apple recommend just using water and a cloth but I find water leaves streaks.
 
I still have some iKlear. That`s what Apple used before Whoosh in their Stores. I also have a big bottle of Whoosh and I like both and they work perfect.
 
I spray the screen with a little water (have a tiny spray bottle) then clean with a glass cleaning cloth.
No alcohol, no chemicals.
 
I went with ESR as I follow Zollotech & he sponsored it in one of his videos. Kinda thick but considering I smashed my previous phone on both sides I don't mind it. Also bubble free after using the applicator

ESR is good, been using a 2D protector since IP16 pro launch, no issues other than it doesn't go to edge and collects lint like crazy.

I also had no bubbles and no cracks at all even after a couple drops.

Not being edge to edge is the downfall but also what makes it easier to install. Already not looking forward to seeing the dust outline lol

It did come as a 3 pack thankfully.

I’m using these on my 16 Pro (don’t use camera protectors) easy installation, no bubbles, hasn’t affected touch responsiveness.

Just distilled water and some good quality cloth.
