phoenixmac, since you have the glas t installed, do you think it may interfere with the sector/element case at all?
Why would it? None of the aluminium case from Element overlaps onto the screen of the phone.
It certainly has its flaws. Nevertheless I'll give this with an Element case combo a try. Hopefully, I can get the application spot on.
Does anyone know if this GLAS.t Glass screen protector works well with the SGP neo hybrid ex vivid two piece bumper case? Or is it too thick of a glass for the bumper to fit properly?
I wouldn't think the otterbox defender would allow the iPhone 5 + glass to fit, and that it would be too tight. That's not true?
I would also want to know more about this, Pheonix. I want this setup myself. Does the GlasT fit when you remove the Otterbox Defender cover OK? The fit is fine? Do you have any photos of it? Like I said if its possible I am going to purchase this exact setup, if you say it works OK. Thanks.
...what? No, the stupid built in screen protector on the defender would be removed, obviously, if you're using the glas.t protector.
No it works perfect for me, the only thing is that the home button is a little harder to push now, but still accessible if you press it from the top of the button, I will get some pictures up later with this set up for you guys.

Not at all, the screen protector stops before it hits the edges, like maybe .05mm away. So it should work flawless with the Sector 5.
I just ordered the GlasT -
But isnt the homebutton comfy if you attach this little extra button?
I am using the GLAS.t with an otterbox defender i dont think the included button fits under the defender.
I couldn't get the glas.t to stick in the area below the home button. Kinda conflicted, as it's a pain in the ass to install and almost impossible to get perfect, but the clarity of the screen and the smooth feel is a dream.
I ordered through Amazon and requested an exchange/refund, but I expect this will be a battle.

Is it true that this protector is one shot at the application? Even in my dust free clean room (bathroom with shower running) I still get a speck or two stuck under my protector that I ultimately remove with tape. If I can't remove dust that would be a deal breaker.
I just installed Glas.t yesterday, wow what a amazing glass - super smooth!
Btw I did it in living room
I just couldn't do that in bathroom felt very silly
Now I'm waiting for the case (cygnett workmate blue/black), hopefully they would come tomorrow!

Sides Chipping?
I'm getting another glas.t shipped my way and I'm going to try a reinstall after a hair gave me problems the first time around. Has anyone had major problems with chipping on the sides of the glas.t? I have no interest in buying a lipped case to protect the sides of the glas.t, and I certainly don't want the sides chipping.
Has anyone had chipping issues with the glas.t on the iphone 5 or 4/4s? I plan on a desmay slight/glas.t combo. If the glas.t is too susceptible to chipping, then I'll go with a naked screen or possibly order a spigen ultra crystal.

How do you know it will work with the case?
Because this case (cygnett workmate) is designed for iphone 5. Are you thinking to get one ?
