[PSA] Screen protectors for iPhone 6/6s Plus will not work for iPhone 7 Plus

[EldonChew]

Unless they had a larger earpiece cutout for 6/6s from the start(which I don't think any has)

Not so much for the normal 7

Overlaid them:

7 Plus:

Interesting... Thanks for this, I'm going to wait to order my tempered glass now..

For FWIW Spigen rep. that I contacted through Amazon told me that their 7plus glass TR Slim had the proper cutouts for the 7 plus.

Anyone checked whether the screen protector service at Apple Stores will be available at launch?

And you don't need the home button cut out anymore.... i want a screen protector with no home button cut out!

Temporarily it's not bad. Sound will still come out the ear piece and the camera front still works through screen protector. Any 7 plus ones out

Yes you do. Touch ID.

I'm going to use the Anker 6s Plus screen protector on my 7 plus until I'm sure the Anker iPhone 7 Plus have been properly updated. According to photos it looks exactly the same but with a larger speaker opening. Doesn't look like they moved the camera.

What about the 6S size compared to the 7?

The first one has the 6s overlaid on the 7, not much of a difference compared to the Plus

As much as I am annoyed with Apple doing this, because now I have to pay $10 per protector from Anker instead of $7 (I would change them often when they got scratched up because they are cheap), I understand why they did it. For proportionality reasons, the speaker on the 6s+ was too small. It looked off. Now its more proportional to the bezel.
