ZAGG Invisible Shield Glass

I'd like to add that while I do love this screen protector. It must be used with a case. My phone slid out of my pocket in the car to the car floor and the edge of the protector chipped from a drop that wasn't more than a foot.

So you must use a case, because this is probably more fragile than the glass itself.

I guess I'll be getting my first warranty replacement earlier than I expected.
 
I love the Zagg glass, it keeps fingerprints off of the screen. It is very close to typing without a screen protector. The only complaint I have (I hope it is with the Zagg not the phone) is there is a rainbow effect on the left side of my screen at the edge of the Zagg. It doesn't bother me too much, I just wanted to find out if anyone else experienced the same thing. They applied the protector when I got the iphone 6 and I want to make sure it isn't something wrong with my screen. When I tilt the phone, I can slightly see the same thing on the right side (at the edge of the Zagg). I am hoping it is a prism from the glass protector. I tried to upload a picture, but the server didn't respond. Anyone?

Let me correct myself, its there! Only at an angle...i dont think I will be using my phone in that angle though

I can see that the side with the rainbow isn't quite covering the whole screen..by a tiny fraction...when I look straight down the rainbow is there and when I tilt the phone a little it disappears. I really think it wasn't put on exactly right by Best Buy. A big hint to anyone putting on the protector- make sure each side is covered. There isn't any extra screen protector, it is an EXACT fit. if it is a little off light will shine through the edge. The way the glass edge is cut probably creates the prism. I still love the protector though, great product!

Does anyone have one of these on the 6 Plus? I know it's not going to be edge to edge but does it completely cover the LCD display? My Verizon tempered glass protector is amazing, I absolutely love the feel and don't know why I didn't start using these glass protectors before now BUT this one doesn't even cover the entire display, there is a thin line on either side that is exposed which does funky things to pictures around the edges and creates a slight rainbow effect. Verizon says that they were hopefully going to release a better fitting one but if Zagg's already does this, I might just return this and grab a Zagg at Best Buy.

If you put it on absolutely flawlessly then yes, it covers the whole LCD. I am very meticulous about applying my SPs and I nailed the Zagg Glass. It is just a hair over the LCD on the left and right and looks and feels amazing. I like it better than the actual screen glass.
 
I splurged and took the hit and let best buy guy do it. i didn't inspect it, but i see some rainbow on the left side. Is this because it's not centered perfectly? It looks pretty flawless to be honest. It covers the entire "screen" part. Of course the "glass" for plus leaves a bit open around the iphone 6+ button area, It's not flush

Yep, if it rests on the edge of the display you'll see some rainbow.

Best Buy did the same to my Zagg SP on my IPhone 6. Since I know it isn't a phone defect, I am not going to reapply the SP. If I tilt my phone slightly, the rainbow disappears. I don't know if i went back to Best Buy if they would fix the problem....I guess I should have checked it out better at time of purchase.

I did the same thing on my 6...put the glass on REALLY well, but I had never turned on my phone yet. I don't use it before a screen protector is on it. So...I didn't realize where the screen was, so I have a slight rainbow effect on the left side. I contacted Zagg about it and they gave me a free replacement shipment code. Debating on when to use it. If they would make it like just BIT, I mean a tiny bit, wider...it would be a perfect fit.

Can anyone else who has the glass on confirm this?

My Verizon tempered glass protector covers the front facing camera and I see no effects from it. I was concerned when I noticed this but it hasn't seemed to effect my selfies one bit! :cool:
 
Does anyone have the ZAGG Glass for iPhone 6 with the Apple leather/silicone case? How big is the gap between the edge of the Glass and where the case meets the edge
 
These are awesome, but I wish they came close to the edges. I know they can't go ALL the way to the edge because of the curves, but they could definitely extend further. Also, the home button top cutouts are way too big.
 
Just installed mine....its beautiful. I'm so happy I went w/ this glass protector. I don't even notice it there!!
 
After seeing that the ZAGG website was sold out of the Glas.tr...I decided to pay a little extra and get one in stock at my local Best Buy. And, because I was in a hurry, I paid the additional $7.00 for them to install it. I told the guy how anal I was and how it had to be done perfect...


...and it pretty much was. I can see at the top where the top edge isn't completely sealing though, and you can definately "tell it's there" by the outline of the glass sheet. But it feels good, and doesn't negatively effect the tap sensitivity of the homescreen icons...so I guess it's a winner.

For $51.00 including installation and tax...it better be! :confused:

Post pics guys c'mon. Would like to see how it looks on your phones. Thanks.

Second this request! Would love to see a closeup of the Zagg on a 6 Plus to see how the coverage is. I love the feel of my Verizon tempered glass protector but it not going all the way to the edge of the LCD screen is driving me crazy! I think I'm going to stop by tonight and see what they say, maybe I'll be lucky and I just got a bad one and others cover it better? One can hope!
 
had mine installed at best buy. Might have to go back as the edges are not sealed fully. Looks installed right and covers the lcd but the edges arent right.
 
Hi guys, just barging in hear to let you know that iloome ScreenMate tempered glass covers edge-to-edge. Thought you guys would want to know :)

Enjoy your Friday/weekend!

-Luke, iloome
 
Wound up returning mine to Best Buy no questions asked. Just told them that it doesn't fit the phone properly (which I felt it didn't) and got my refund. I'm perfectly happy not using a screen protector since my OCD goes nuts with them but maybe down the road when the full coverage glass ones come out and there's enough feedback i'll give it another go.
 
Went back to Best Buy & found a young lady who was as picky as I am to do another install for me instead of getting a refund...at least for now. She went through three brand new screens before she got one that she could put on perfectly! I couldn't believe her tenacity...but she told me it was her job to make me happy, and she certainly did. The glass sheet does not hang out over the iPhone's curved screen edges at all.

I was planning to order the iLoome ScreenMate (especially after Luke promised me a 100% refund if I wasn't happy), and I still might...but I'm pretty impressed at least for now with the ZAGG product. I agree that they should trim 1mm or so from the perimeter of the glass sheets for easier installation.

And, I'm pretty impressed with Best Buy...and Jennifer! :D

It's good to know you can return these to Best Buy with no trouble. I plan on going there in a few days to return mine, as the guy did not install it correctly. I bought another off Amazon which I will install myself.
