I just installed a Smartdevil 3D Hot Bend on my iPhone 16 Pro after my Flolab kept breaking with the slightest drop. It seems rather reflective to me and indeed the surface isn't quite smooth. Did you experience the same or is my mind playing tricks?
I installed the regular none 3D hit bend version of the smart devil. So can’t comment.
 
I went with Torras 3D after having an extremely frustrating experience with Flolabs and their scammy warranty.

I’m very impressed with Torras. Unlike Flolabs, the centering is near perfect and all camera L’s show up. Also there are no permanent bubbles. That was my main issue with Flolabs. A large permanent bubble at the bottom including the warranty replacements.


The installation looks weird with their rubber roller, but it was so far the easiest screen protector I have installed. There was no need to push out any bubble. I passed the roller 4 times instead of the instructed 2, just to be safe.

The only things I would like Torras to have is a lifetime warranty or cheaper price. And no rainbowing when using polarized glasses like the Flolabs.

Btw, I upgrade phones every 2 years.

Try to ask support. I would probably go for the 3D one or the new Torras. Btw the Flolabs product lineup is a complete mess.

I reached out to support, and here’s what they clarified:

Actually the same product, just listed under two different links. This version has slimmer black bezels for a more seamless viewing experience, reducing the coverage of the display edges while keeping the same protection.
 
Can anyone who owns a caudabe paragon share their experiences with 3D full coverage protectors like the TORRAS/baseus/smartdevil?

I’ve tried the smartdevil one with various cases, apple silicone, spigen ultra hybrid t, phone rebel, caudabe sheath and paragon. Those with very tight fits (phone rebel and paragon) are a no go for me. No matter how I put them on they always lift the screen protector. Apple silicone and spigen ultra hybrid t I’ve had better luck with, but only if I install a specific corner first. I’m starting to think that no matter how good these 3D protectors look, their incompatibility with cases is an issue.
 
I have just installed torras origarmor for 17 pro on my 16 pro and honestly its amazing. Some users here accused me of favoring flolab too much, so well here it is. Torras now is in a league of it’s own. It truly feels like there is nothing on the screen, coverage is superb, edges are super smooth, borders extra thin, ar and oleophobic are great and it installs perfectly square. Only thing is 17 pros speaker cutout is wider but it doesn’t bother me too much. Price is steep for one glass without lifetime warranty (afaik), but it fits perfectly

Been using the Baseus for a few months. Happy with it overall. Has the coverage I wanted and works with the ESR case I put in occasionally. The top edge is a little “sharp” compared to the other three - might have something to do with how it also covers the speaker and has some sort of opening for it. It has picked up a few small scratches but nothing too bad.
 
Just finished installing the new torras 3d. Anti reflective coating is nice. Install came out perfect. Will give my thoughts after a few days! If anyone has a camera view finder screenshot I’ll see if it covers up the little corner brackets. They are gone on iOS 26 so can’t check
Here’s a screenshot to test. Just save it to your photos first and then check. My flolab onetime pro 3d shows all the corners when looking straight on.

Which cases are you using with it? Do any of them lift it?

I’m tempted to get the orig armor for my 16 pro max. I have a couple of full screen 3D protectors from other brands but my caudabe paragon cases lift them.
 
I have a 3D protector since 2 weeks (the Devil one) and I must say very impressed, very nice feeling with the smooth edges.
