iPhone 6 screen protectors - post yours

I've found quite a few sellers on eBay offering tempered glass protection.
Have emailed the sellers to provide me with some pictures - I highlighted the concern about them not covering the curved edges of the display.
Hopefully they will reply with some pics!

Keep us posted if they reply ! All the screen protectors I have found so far (both on Amazon & eBay) do not cover the whole of the glass of the iPhone 6.
Perhaps we need to wait a few weeks for these to be produced?!
Surely the only way to cover the whole screen would be for the tempered glass to also curve. Not sure how easy that would be for the manufacturers.
Well there's big money in whoever manages it - I'm sure it's possible but process would be expensive.
Spigen Air Cushion in clear/black: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen®-CUSHI...1411230361&sr=8-1&keywords=air+cushion+iphone I think it goes by a different name on their website.

We need a conformal screen protector...
I got a Tech Armor Ballastic glass to protect the screen till my spiegen shows up but it shows you the crappy look of probably any of these screen protectors until someone makes a conformal protector..... which may be too hard to do??

That looks terrible. I have a feeling this is how all protectors will look. Naked it is!
Wow that's awful. I feel like the only screen protectors that will look ok are either the really thin glass ones or the normal plastic ones - the thick glass ones look very ugly.
Disappointed.
Ultimately I am going with a wallet.
I had a wallet case for my Iphone 5 but the face was exposed and needed a screen protector. Spiegen did a great job with that. You would not even know it is there. Now with the Iphone 6 and its conformal curved screen I do not think ANY screen protector is going to look good so I think I will go with no screen protector and a wallet like this.

It will be a bit awkward for taking photos but I did just fine with my other wallet and I will not have to ruin the screen with a protector. It may also be a a bit awkward during phone calls.... looks like you are holding a wallet to your ear. But.....The wallet will protect the screen from keys or other objects in my pocket. If I drop it while it is open it would have to hit something with a point or a small rock and only if it hit flat would damage be done.

Thank you. Strange thing is I actually have the same case but in gun metal grey but didn't recognise it.
Prefer in Black.

MIME Feather+ Glass Screen Protector
Just got an email from MIME saying that they will send me a revised screen protector next week for my iPhone 6. Haven't received my original order yet, but happy they are correcting the issue. Besides, its not like I have my phone yet.

I agree, although they do look slightly better in person. The pictures really don't do them justice.
I also think this is as good as it's going to get unless you go with a wet application.
Are there any negatives to using wet applied screen protectors? I've only used the dry ones myself.
Here is mine by the way - spigen crystal.
That looks pretty good - I suppose it's just because of the thickness of the glass ones - so the 0.15mm ones might look good.
Thanks for the pictures very useful.
I'm pretty happy with it. Full coverage compared to the tech armor tempered glass protector I used.
the applestore has a pair for $17.99 and its anti glare! works amazing and they install it for you if you like! the guy did an amazing job on both mine and my wife phone
Yes the thinner it is the better it looks. I mean it's not invisible and you can feel it at the edge of the screen, but I can live with it and I'm pretty fussy.

I take it that's wet instal? Did you fit it yourself?
If those are the Power Support ones then they are not that great in my opinion. I got them today from the Apple Store and they will do for now but are by no means anywhere near perfect.
Wet install. Had it done at a ghost armor kiosk while I went case shopping at the local mall.
Ok I see that sounds good, unfortunately we don't seem to have these ghost armour kiosks in the UK. Anything like that I would have to attempt to instal myself.
I have ordered a skin from bestskinsever which I believe is wet install, so I will attempt to do that myself. I may only put the back skin on though, if that goes well I will decide if I will also do the front.
