I think the 7 will for sure have sapphire so no need for protectors by then, hopefully
Contact amazon support, they'll set up a free shipping label for you.
Amazon support is awesome.
I just got my phone and put the screen protector. I honestly think you should hold onto all glass screen protectors for now because of sizing issues.
For Spigen - The length is ok, but the width is SLIGHTLY smaller than the screen. It's a little annoying because it causes a "rainbow" line on the sides.
I suggest you wait it out until there are adjustments to screen protectors. Just be careful with your screen

It's curved all over the sides. This is a huge problem for screen protectors because the biggest they can make them without touching the curve is right before the bottom of the touch ID button. This means that most if not, all screen protectors will have a cut out at the bottom, or it will lift up due to the curve. There will also be a semicircle cut out for the top camera, because the glass starts curving that there as well.
I think this really sucks because it's gonna be hard for companies to come up with a solution. Maybe a glass screen protector with curves on the edges?
yep. Looks like garbage. But i'll keep it on for protection purposes until its figured out.
That's really unfortunate. Mine should be here tomorrow. I guess I'll return it and get a different one.
I've used wet install from numerous companies (Zagg, BSE, Phantomskinz, Skinomi, Xtremeguard, etc etc), and honestly, they're pretty much all the same to me. I couldn't tell you which one is "clearer". I just recently started using a tempered glass protector on my iPhone 5 and loved the feel so much that I said I'd never use a wet install for the screen again, but it looks like I might have to...
Can you share a photo of your phone with that applied if that's the one you got?
I might pick one up tonight
I contacted them as well with the issue. It's so horrible. It's a shame because I had their screen protectors before and I loved them.
I do. I put it on (you get two in the case) and it took me a few times. Then again I've never been the best at putting these on. It looks when it's on correctly (and again, this isn't my forte) there's about a mm on each side of the actual screen (not the white part on the sides of a white phone), but it looks good to me.
I'll try to get a picture and will post it. I'm more of a fan of the crystal clear look as opposed to the anti-glare, but this will suffice for now.
Spigen's glass screen protector has a sizing problem.
Due to the curve of the phone's glass, screen protectors cannot fully reach the edges of the phone.
However, Spigen's glass screen protectors do not fully cover the LCD screen on the sides. This causes a "rainbow" effect with the screen on. This is very annoying. I think that Spigen could've extended the sides a TINY BIT more to cover the screen, and it shouldn't interfere with the curve still.
Just thought I'd share that with others who are thinking if they should purchase it or not. Also, if anyone else has problems with other brands, please share the info for others to be informed about them. I contacted Spigen to let them know about this, so I hope they do something about it.
Sorry that the lightning is bad, but just thought I'd share this for anyone wondering what I'm talking about.
*I heard Zagg's screen protector is too big and sticks out where the phone curves? Can anyone confirm (possibly with photos, it will help greatly)

I just got my phone granted I don't have a screen protector yet,but the display isn't as curved as folks are making it seem. I think a screen protector even not all the way down going just to the edge of the display would be ok so a dry install shouldn't be bad. You guys are saying different though so we'll see. To the people that think it feels uncomfortable is the protector ALL the way to the edge of the screen maybe it's before?
You say the screen protectors are defective or don't match the listing.
Then you return them at Amazon's expense.
Otherwise you'll have to pay for shipping, when it's not your fault Spigen and other companies were so vague on the details regarding these screen protectors. It was difficult to find the millimeter of the tempered glass protectors too.
Yeah I just submitted a return for my spigen glas.tr. Took it out of the package when I got home and lined it up and noticed it didn't cover the whole screen. Hopped on here to see it's everyone having the same issue. My friend had the same issue with his zagg glass protector.
Wish PS didn't take SOO Long on releasing their stuff for new iPhones.
I am glad they wait and get it right the first time unlike other junk companies that most all have screen protectors for but it's normally like a good month or so you get new stuff from them after a new phone releases that needs a new film design.
But regardless all films I buy ow will be temporary till Power Support releases their Crystal Film Set ... been using PS Crystal FOR EVER ... nothing else comes close it.
Does Power Support not make back protectors any more? I don't want the back scratched by my case. They only list the front screen protector on the website for the 6 and I believe that's all they sold for the 5s.
I got the zagg glass screen protector for my 6 I hope it fits okay until I can get something else, normally I use power support screen protectors but no where around here had that one yet and I need something for right now. I've never used a glass screen protector so this is a first for me. So we will see when I install it what happens.
