iPhone 6 Edge-to-edge Glass Screen Protector — The holy grail?

RMSko said:
Thanks, but I'm looking for it on the US site and just saw that it is unavailable. It had some bad reviews so maybe Amazon took it out of inventory in the US?

They have it:

Does any of you guys know if the Speck Candyshell Grip works with the Nillkin screen protector? Thanks!

Received mine today.

For those of you interested these are exactly the same as the bends protectors you can get on eBay for £6. Packaging is the best I've seen thus far though.

The edge of the screen is ever so slightly curved. Underneath the edges there is a small rim of adhesive tape on the underside - preventing the overhang. I used one of the benks protectors for a while and it collected a lot of dust/lint due to the stickiness of the adhesive.

I'm currently waiting for my aegis protector, just worried it won't fit with my case on.

Mine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I bought it as a temp protector until my aegis arrives!

Also concerned about the aegis working with a case. Which case(s) are you going to try?
 
That looks like the Nilikin and other flat glass SPs with or without a lip under the edge. I font like these. Makes the phone seem bigger.

I am waiting for curved edges.

Just curious where you heard that from. Because I wrote to the company about this very issue last week and here is the response I received:

"For your information, there are 2 different types of adhesive for the 3D corning glass screen protector - 1 on the curved edges and another one on the glass itself."

From their official FB Fan Page, here's a screen shot of my inquiry.

Not doubting you in anyway. Just find it interesting (and disconcerting) that they are giving different answers to the same question. Here's my screenshot.

I posed this question to Connect4U and here is there response:

Both got different replies is due to the reason of timing. Initially the information we gotten are based on the earlier batch which Imos decided to improvised, hence the long delay. The second answer was given based on the test unit (revised version) sent to us. The new design comes with 2 different types of adhesive too. First one on the top and bottom part which is colored and the second one is the normal adhesive on the middle part which is transparent.

We understand there's concern that the sides might attract dust. Kindly take note that the new version do not have adhesive on the curved edges, hence dust are not going to stick on it. And secondly, the curved is a glass (Corning glass to be exact). We knows rubber/plastic attracts dust, hence some brands have such issues.

Hope this sort out the issues.

I see, so their answer to my inquiry is for the new version of their product.

Come to think of it, I am now wondering which is better, the full adhesive which they have on their previous design or the no adhesive on the curved edges on the new version?

They maybe right in saying that adhesive on the curved edges may attract dust, but leaving out the edges without any adhesive means there will be a gap between the iPhone's Screen and the IMOS Tempered Glass, dust will eventually enter this gap unless IMOS design is so perfect that there will be no gap.

I just installed the same one and its great! Install and packaging was nice. And it also works with my power Support Air Jacket!!!

Packaging alone appears to be worth $10 alone :D A++ for presentation. Still satisfied and fits great with my cheap ebay case lol.
 
After trying the Benks, Nilkin, no name color glass, ebay glass and the Tech Armor. I think I just found the best one for me. It's the Mime color glass. It's cut a couple millimeters smaller than the screen itself so it fits my Airybody aluminum case perfectly and I believe it would also fit many different cases and won't cause the edge to lift.
