Yeah, it has an elaborate installation tray that’s supposed to pull the dust off the screen when you yank the plastic sheet off the protector and then you slide an orange roller over the whole screen to eliminate bubbles. It sort of resembles those old carbon paper credit card machines.
And yes, curved edges.
This was actually common finding last year. I always take my protectors off the tray and put them back on to make sure they’re aligned
Man torras origarmor perfect install on the 17 pro max. 👌 I’ll wait till it gets beat tf up to throw the shellrus on
That looks really good! I'm searching MagSafe wallets now and can't decide which color for my Silver/White. I still haven't branched out to colored phones.
Esr or torras for now. I have both on hand but wanted to keep testing the anti reflective coating on my Air first. Still debating if I want to use the protectors.
You may have a faulty screen. I've had this happen in the past where multiple screen protector fail in the same place and apple eventually replaced my phone and next one went on perfect.
Please let me know how case friendly it is? I worry it will peel up every time I change cases?
I put my torras on and will probably take it off. It really made the glare and reflections much more noticeable.
They dont have an OrigArmor, so might just go without one for now
Sorry for my ignorance, but I don’t fully get this new anti-reflective glass on the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
What does it actually mean? Does it stop me from just buying any normal screen protector?
How about this: https://a.co/d/2Dl000h ?
If I can’t just use that protector, what’s the best option right now — something that’s really scratch-resistant (military grade), feels almost invisible (like there’s no protector at all), and doesn’t interfere with Apple’s new anti-reflection feature?

It’s a coating that decreases reflections. Unlikely any screen protector will retain it unless it has its own anti glare/reflective coating.

I’m thinking the same. I took my air and 16p all around in different lighting to get an idea of the AR coating and it does make a difference. Might not be a deal breaker to not have it for some people. How did the torras fit (camera cutout, edge to edge, borders)? If I were to use one I’d like it to be as invisible as possible on my naked phone.
id say same as the 16pm one, on the 16pm one I was able to use the phone rebel frosty with no lifting. right now I only have the andar cases and the cactus, so nothing tight fitting. will let you know as soon as I do!
Ordered a Spigen glass version but haven’t tried yet.
