^^^ that iFlash company has a 3 pack of glass screen protectors for $9.99

good deal, wondering if it's any worse than the Tech armor I had. $7.95 for one isn't bad either, but one shot to get install right if I do go screen protector route again is a lot of pressure.
These fit the S models? The S has slightly different curvature at the edges.

I am OCD to the highest degree with my Apple stuff so I hear you!

Actually it was a little crooked the first time I did it (and we're talking by 0.5mm maybe) so I lifted and redid it using tweezers and a dust free environment. Stayed great! Here are a few pics:

This is going to sound nuts, but I wonder if there is a difference because you have a 6s PLUS and I just had the 6s? Maybe more issues lie with the 6s?
 
Any recommendations for a tempered glass screen protector that adheres to all four sides? IVSO edge-to-edge from Amazon won't adhere to the right and left sides. Spigen Glas.TR Slim had chips along the edges after two days. Has anyone tried the Spigen Full Cover Glas?

Just installed the Daswise Edge-to-Edge.
Have you noticed any dust or lint along the edges?

Oh man. I'm gutted. I thought for sure this would be the one where the edges would stick. Would love to see that pic.

Rats.

Below are the pictures of the .1mm Beluga glass protector.

Anyone know anything about the supposed UV/blue light protection? I've heard some screen protectors block out the wavelengths that are harmful to your brain and make it harder to fall asleep. I'd be interested in one of the glass ones that includes that as long as it doesn't mess up the quality of the screen's image.

I've never been a fan of screen protectors, but I've only ever had plastic ones. I hear the glass ones are much better but the thing that concerns me about the glass ones is they seem to require some kind of glue? I really don't want to do something that'll require some sort of extensive cleaning to get glue off of the original screen down the line... I'd love to keep going front-naked on my phone (I do like the Apple leather case) but I just got a new 6S Plus that I'm making a hefty monthly payment for and I don't want to be OCD about always keeping a big buffer zone between my keys and my phone. As we know, going about your normal day... I've always wound up with microscratches on past phones and I'd like to avoid that this time around so I can have a smooth trade-in for the iPhone 7, should I decide to go that route.
There's a lot of glass screen protectors that don't need "glue" or any moisture to install, in fact most are dry installs. Some brands even have glass screen protectors that are easy to apply and remove.
 
Cool, good luck :cool:

Got it on really well on the 1st try...used the sticker / rubber band hinge technique which they had a video for (and even included the bands and stickers). Halo effect / bubble around sides is almost non existent. I only got 1 hair underneath the screen (actually in the corner not on the screen part) and one tiny speck on the screen part. Otherwise, it's aligned almost perfectly and looks really good. Fortunately I now have 2 backups as well. :)

Here are some pictures of my iPhone 6s Plus Space Grey 128Gb with the iMos Glass Protector, Gold Ring for home button, gold sapphire Glass Lens and my carrying pouch.

The case I am using is Powersupport smoke matte (Limited Edition) air jacket.

Love the look of this! Going to look in to getting one.

where can one grab this matte smoke?? is the texture smooth or sticky?
 
My iFlash arrived today.

did a terrible job installing and re-installing, but the peel effect from nailing at the corners was minimal compared to the first tech armor i botched on my 6+

theres some lint and random crap on my screen protector now, i didnt do the best job lol but not sure if I'm gonna swap my phone or not, a few dead pixels and yellow blotch and more wanted to see what this thing felt like with it on the phone, PLUS (pun intended) I have 2 more in case I want to re-install or exchange my phone, or whatever.

it works PERFECT with 3d touch, and i think its thinner than tech armor which i personally prefer. fits to the edge of the screen well too, my tech armor came up a hair too narrow
 
I am also looking for a tempered glass that covers a majority of the screen, I know its hard to get all of it, but for the 6s plus, any recommendations? The one I got is good, cheap two pack easy installation, but leaves just a little too much open on the sides.
 
Can you post a picture of the install? I wonder if that installation frame works with other SP's.
um that would depend on the size of the screen protector but it comes with a life time warranty so if the screen protector even has any issues they will replace it for free as long as you send back the old one u replacing

Later today, I'll be removing the cheap film protector that came with the case and drop on a tempered glass protector. I'm hoping that it's as easy as it looks in the video. Then I'll put the phone back into it's Otterbox Commuter case.
