Been using ESR for the last 4 years. Haven’t had any issues and cheap enough for a 3 pack from amazon
Sent torras an email asking if they are making the origarmor for the Air 🤞
Looking for a good antiglare non-glass screen protector please for the 17PM. Similar to the S25U. I want it thin and barely noticeable that’s it’s on. Thank you.
Thanks for the suggestions guys. Just installed the replacement after the first one had some dust, and following your guys’ methods, it was an absolute perfect install, no dust. I did what @FatCatSings mentioned, pulling the dust-free tab quickly to create that static electricity.
Dont know if that helped with removing any dust that, if there were any, but a full inspection of the protector revealed none.
@Itsedstech i may order the Shellrus as well to use as backup in cause the Torras develop any scratches or cracks. Standing by in case you want to ditch the Torras and install the Shellrus for us 😂
Yup, didn’t press it down, I just let it float above the glass.
I just went into my orders and requested a return for the item. Don’t select the option to be serviced by Torras, just choose Amazon as your customer service option and it gave me the option to either be issued credit back to my account or to receive a replacement.
Glad it worked out for you too!
Thinking about buying the 17 Pro Max version for backup, but since I’m in CA where they’re at, with tax it’s $92!!! 😱
Did you have a discount code for the 17? I just emailed them asking for a discount code, if there’s none, I’ll probably pass on it.
Wasn't really for camera lens protection - more to protect the exposed part of the handset from scratches etc.....
Thank you. I’ve never used a screen protector, I don’t really care for the extra layer. But coming from a S25U, I want that effect thus, I’d be happy with a film if one exists? Even if it means changing it every 6 months or so. I’m not even sure if an AR film even exists. Completely new to this area.
Haven’t seen the “WSKEN” brand mentioned. Mobilereviewseh rated them a 2nd best in a previous video. I ordered them for the air and have them already. Will be installing when I get the air in hand today.
Screen size yes but the dimensions are slightly different
17 pro is 150.0 x 71.9 x 8.75 mm (5.91 x 2.83 x 0.34 inches), while the iPhone 17 measures 149.6 x 71.5 x 7.95 mm (5.89 x 2.81 x 0.31 inches).
I just bought the cheapest ($4) glass screen protector i can find and its working fine. Its crazy seeing people spending north of $60 for a piece of glass. I get its sapphire but who needs that really? The best part is the glass i bought comes with an applicator and 2 pieces. The only time i would consider spending more would be if they release a glare reducing film like Samsung does for their phones.
Did you just return the screen protector or everything included ? When you asked for replacement?
if you think $60 for a screen protector is bad, dont even think about going into the cases thread lol we throw away a whole phones worth of cases throughout the year over there
Tend to agree - some of the prices and associated marketing hyperbole are ridiculous (same goes for cases). I'm okay spending £20 for the Touras OrigArmor, but that's my limit, and even then, you know their profit margin is still through the roof (and very tight, it's a single screen protector in the pack). However, in my experience, spending a little more on a quality screen protector means it's very resetant to scratches and is good for the entire 12 months I have the phone.
Got this one from Amazon. Installation was flawless and looks great. Waiting on Caudabe CrystalShield Elite AR. This one may stay on until it breaks or scratches.

Don't do it, nothing wrong with the OrigArmor
Hopefully nobody minds if I ask this here?
Did anybody happen to use the screen protector cam with the phone rebel 5? I need to put a new one on the 15 to give to the wife and wasn’t sure if it was any good. I’ve been using the flolab since install.
