I picked up a couple of the Manto brand full screen protectors. Installing was tricky to line it up perfectly, but once on, it looks and feels fantastic... EXCEPT the poor adhesive over the very thin section over the ambient light sensor, because in only 2 days, I suppose from going in and out of pockets, a bunch of lint has collected under that ONE spot.

Exact same thing is happening to me with the Orzly 2.5D glass protector. I've not seen any evidence that the lint is affecting the operation yet.

They look remarkably the same Manto/Orzly, probably made in the same factor and simply rebranded for sale. At least the Orzly was cheap and will fill the gap until the fitbag I've ordered arrives and the phone goes back to being naked.

Manto was actually quite good about this. They sent me a code to oder two new protectors free on Amazon.

In the Amazon descriptions the Orzly is .24mm and the Manto is .33mm. Is thicker better protection?
 
Mine just broke after a short fall from a desk. IPhone X fine no damage but I didn't expect the screen protector would be damaged as much as it was from the short fall it took though . It did its job taking one for the team.

Which screen protector?
 
I bought the manto screen protector but all the dust build-up was terrible for me, emailed with the company and they said amazon didn't allow them to give out free replacements, so they would send me a code instead for 99% off a new one. I don't want a replacement as it would ultimately have the exact same issues so that's a no go for me I'll return it to amazon instead.
 
Unless they changed the design...what’s the point of ordering new ones?

When the dust irritates me enough, I can swap to a new one a coupe of times, until I find one that works correctly. Back ups are nice with screen protectors.
