iCarez Tempered Glass Screen Protector for iPhone SE 2020 iPhone 8/7 /6 /6s 4.7-inches, 1-Pack

This screen protector is very much easier than others to install and also offers a crystal clear view of your screen. It was a pleasant experience working with this seller and will continue my business with them in the near future. I was looking for a screen protected that was within my budget and also made of high quality and this was it! This screen protector has saved my phone a few times already and I could not thank this enough. You’re bassically investing in no more than 20 dollars on a 500 dollar plus phone. I am going to buy more for my relatives whom also got new phones. Shipping was REALLY fast as I have Amazon prime as it only took half a day to process and then 2 days to get to my house. Package was precisely packaged with bubble wrap inside a typical amazon box (which is made of high quality so your item will not get damaged at all) This screen protector is very much easier than others to install and also offers a crystal clear view of your screen.

It's actually pretty easy to put on if you're careful enough and don't spazz out over perfection. If you're normal and can look past perfect placement, stop reading this review and click "Add to Cart". You'll be happy to know you'll be getting a fantastic screen protector for only $6.49. But if you have psycho bits of OCD lurking in your mental cranium like myself, read on. I, unfortunately, am a lot like one those bad infommercial actors that seem to break their wrists while attempting to squeeze a Windex spray bottle. I really should have filmed my stupidity. When I first placed the protector on, no dust particles could be seen by the naked eye. I was immensely proud of myself. Yet, I was about 1 millimeter off from it being on straight. I felt my eye twitch and knew this imperfection would haunt me day and night if I didn't do something about it. I had previously read a lot of reviews that taking the protector off was like, impossible to do so once the phone sealed itself on the phone, but uh, that's a lie. I have virtually no fingernails whatsoever and I was able to take it off easily. However, once I removed it, the Dust Particle Colony was out for vengeance, and one inevitably stuck onto the sticky part of the screen protector as I lifted it off. I, being the glorious genius that I am, decided to try and "blow" it off. Yes. I did, in fact, attempt to use wind from my mouth to get a speck off of a glue-like substance. When that didn't work (shockingly), I didn't use, oh, say...a piece of paper, or an oil-less object that would have probably easily removed the dust particle. No no. I used my finger. And in doing so, I created a smudge. You'd think I would have stopped there and called it a day, but no...there's more. I then mysteriously thought it would be ok to take the small cleaning cloth and try to dab the smudge away. I now had a smudge that was growing fur. At this point, I started to laugh in such a way that if anyone witnessed it, they'd slowly back away. In my crazed state of mind, I started to furiously wipe at the smudge, causing the corner of the screen protector to now resemble the cleaning cloth. I wouldn't let the protector win, though. To throw it away would mean that it bested me. I couldn't have that. So I did what any psychotic person would do... I placed it back on my phone, put it in my pocket, walked eight steps before I pulled it out of my pocket, ripped off the cover, and ordered another screen protector from Amazon.

So many people are giving this bad reviews stating that is does not fit the iPhone 6, and I can't do anything but laugh out loud....and write a review on here that express how wrong I believe they are. In fact, if you understand how the iPhone 6 is constructed with respect to the screen you know exactly why the protector is made the way it is. You can't just make a piece of tempered glass precurved to the same degree that the iPhone screen has been ground down to. Sorry, off of my soapbox....This screen protector ROCKS!!! Firstly, the packaging is high quality and it included everything necessary to successfully install and re-install this protector if needed. You get a sheet of stickers (Two for dust removal and two more for screen protector removal if you need to re-position), a micro-fiber cloth, an alcohol wipe, and instructions for installation. The protector itself has film on both sides of it, the adhesive side having a large sticker in the corner with a "1" on it and the other side have tabs on both ends to allow for easy positioning of the protector on your phone. There will be an area all around the side of this protector where your iPhone bezel will be unprotected. This is due to Apple's decision to make the screen curved as opposed to flat like in generations past. I personally do not like this choice, but hey it's not my choice to make, lol! As a positive side effect, since the protector does not go all the way to the edge, you should be good to use just about any case for the new iPhone with worry of the glass protector getting in the way. Overall, I highly recommend this protector for the price and say to those who believe the protector doesn't fit....wake up, realize that glass isn't flexible and go get your orange peeling plastic protectors if you want something to fully cover the top of the phone! :)

More like 4.5 stars. I really like this screen protector. Tips to avoid problems: This may sound like plain common sense but a lot of people don't do a practice run first. Place the screen saver with protective film still on over your phone's screen to get an idea of what you're dealing with. When you can picture where it needs to go, you'll have less surprises later (you can't reposition once even part of it is placed on phone). Something that I learned from window tinting, clean, clean, CLEAN THAT SCREEN! The one thing that will hinder the adhesive from sticking properly is dirt, dust, and oil. It has to be cleaned just before you apply. Not clean, walk away, then come back and apply. It only takes a second for dust in the atmosphere to settle back. Use the wet cleaning cloth that comes with it and wipe from one side to the opposite...not in a circular motion. After it's been cleaned and dried with the little shammie, don't touch the screen with your fingers as you may deposit unseen oils back onto the screen. This is the reason why some people have spots that won't stick. After reading the other reviews I made sure to line up the side edges with the edges of the screen as perfectly as possible. Since the screen saver doesn't allow any room for error, you really have to be sure both sides are perfectly aligned edge to edge. If you do not do this, you may see an extra line down the side of your screen when you turn on your screen. It really has to be close to exact. If you have a white iPhone, it shouldn't be a problem to line up. But if you have a black one, you may want to turn your screen on to a relatively white webpage so you can get a good contrast on where the edges of your screen are. Be aware of the type of lighting you are using when working on this! Here is where I goofed... I was working with a lamp that was directed towards my work area from a side angle. It's hard to explain but after aligning the side edges with the screen, I had to align the top (speaker and camera) and bottom (home button). Well the side lighting created the smallest hint of a shadow through the screen saver. The screen saver is so ridiculously clear, that you can easily mistaken the shadow for the edges of the screensaver. I had lined up the protector perfectly, even centering the hole over the camera. When I finished applying, I realized that it was never centered, the circular hole that I lined up with was just the shadow. I ended up covering part of the front camera. Fortunately the top and bottom are much more forgiving than the sides. I just happened to have my phone sideways when I was working on it, therefore I had shadows going through the top and bottom of my protector. Had I been working on my phone in a vertical position I'm sure I would have been thrown off by the shadow enough to run into the same issues as others with the rainbow line. I can easily see why so many people are having problems aligning the side edges perfectly. Fortunately the front camera still works fine and I didn't cover the home button up. But for a perfectionist that was a bit of a bummer. Pros: The application tabs make all the difference. Without them I would have struggled to get this centered without getting oil and prints all over it. Crystal clear. Not a single bubble, no rainbows, etc. I personally don't mind that it's smaller than the face of the phone. It's so clear that it's barely noticeable. And when compared to the alternative, sticky film, it will stay looking this way for much longer. Sticky films tend to get lint stuck to it, edges lift, appear dull, feel funny to the touch, and scratch easily. Not to mention that they never really look as clear as they should be. Applied easily, didn't have to work it in much or smooth it out. Sort of dropped into place literally once any part of it was lowered to the phone. Watch out for that! Comes with screen cleaner, shammie, dust removal stickers, stickers to remove old screensaver, and card squeegee (not that you'll need it). Lays very flat even with the slight goof. No edges are lifting and none are over curved parts of screen. Significant reduction in fingerprints. There's barely any...no smudges either. Screen saver feels really smooth to touch. Much Smoother than without it. If you use Swype, you're going to really like this. Retails for $29.95! I'd say it's a bargain on Amazon. Cons: I already expected it to be smaller than the actual screen. Could they have made this a 0.5mm wider to make things a bit easier for us? I think so. But then you also increase the chances of the edges lifting. Just food for thought, but if the screen protector were to be wider, you would have even less wiggle room to play with. It would be less forgiving because now you're even closer to the curved edge than before. Still I do wonder if this was deliberate or just an oversight? Other than not having tips for application, I can't say I've found any cons yet. We applied two of these tonight for 2 phones without major issues and didn't use the stickers nor squeegee. I can't comment on the durability of it yet, but will be back to update if anything happens to it.

At the same time that I bought this screen protector for myself, I bought a 3 pack of the standard film type protectors from iCarez for my granddaughters phone. They worked well as all of the other screen protectors that I've used in the past. Now I just happened upon the installation video for this tempered glass screen protector (why, after having it for a few months, I don't know, but I did). In the video it shows someone placing the screen protector on the phone, touching the middle of it and magically it adheres without any bubbles at all. Ya' know what? It did just that when I installed it. Installed the film ones on the other phone at the same time and went through all 3 before I got it right (finally no bubbles or dust mites). Ever wonder why they give you 3 for just one phone??? They say that you can't scratch it and while I can't attest to that because I've taken very good care of my phone, there's not a scratch on it. But here's the kicker. They claim that it has some kind of anti-oil nano coating that reduces stains and smudging? Well, I gotta' tell ya' that they're right on the money with that one. My iPad (with no protector) and my granddaughters phone (with the film protector) both look like a bacterial playground. This tempered glass screen protector is as clear and clean as the day that I installed it and I've yet to take a tissue or anything else to it. Forget everything that anyone claims about their screen protectors. Anything that you put on your screen to protect it will work. But this stays clean. I don't know how? I don't know why? But it stays as clean as the day you installed it! I'm ordering this glass one for my granddaughters phone and will highly recommend it to everyone I know. Go glass or pass. Spend the extra bucks on the tempered glass and don't waste your money on film.

So the cheapskate I am bought the cheapest tempered glass screenprotecter i could about a full year ago now, and I actually couldnt be happier with my purchase. Its still on there perfectly fine, its nice quality and feels good (granted that might be all tempered glass screen protecters) but it's never cracked on me by just day to day use or drops onto carpet etc. Ive never actually dropped it where the screenprotector would have to save my screen from damage, but if thats why you are buying this for, you might as well spend a bit more and just get a otterbox/life proof. I did knick the corner of the my screenprotector, It was in my pocket with the screen out and i leaned over something and the corner of something put pressure right on the edge of the screenprotector and a really small peice of the corner cracked so i just pulled it off, but any screen protector would do that (since its the edge piece and its super weak with no stability there). Anyway thats my 2 cents. Its worth the 7 bucks hands down.

UPDATE (from 5-star to 3-star): After a month of usage, a small piece of the screen protector by the iPhone camera and speaker has chipped off. I'm not sure what happened--my guess is that the edge got caught on something when the phone was going in or out of my pocket. Up until now, the screen protector has maintained its original look--with no visible dust/lint finding its way underneath the edges or visible scratches on the surface. I noticed throughout the past month that the glass isn't as oleophobic (smudge-resistant) as other glass screen protectors that I have previously used. Despite my positive initial impression, I'm not sure anymore whether I would recommend this brand of screen protector anymore due to the questionable durability which resulted in a surprisingly short lifetime. Nobody wants to replace a screen protector once a month at these prices, right? === The iCarez tempered glass screen protector is the fourth screen protector that I tried for my iPhone 6. The packaging itself is quite nice for a screen protector. Along with the screen protector and application instructions, iCarez provides a cleaning wipe, a cleaning cloth, and stickers to remove your previous screen protector and to remove any dust that collects while applying the new screen protector. The cut is as good as you're going to find for the iPhone 6 unless someone figures out how to make curved screen protectors. The cutouts on the screen protector are minimal. At the top, there are separate precise cutouts for the speaker and the proximity sensor--unlike other protectors that have one large cutout that goes around the front-facing camera. At the bottom, the cutout for the home button has rounded edges and doesn't interfere with using the home button at all. It may be difficult to align the screen protector perfectly because the width of the display area on the iPhone 6 is exactly the same as the width of the screen protector. Try some of the tips in the other reviews to improve your chances! I also emailed iCarez's customer support and received fast and friendly responses. I'll definitely try their other products in the future!

I purchased this item after having bought a different kind on ebay, which was poorly packaged and arrived broken. I could see from the product photo that the iCarez packaging was much sturdier. The screen protector arrived intact, I'm happy to say. I'm even more thrilled that it honestly was easy to apply. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow and everything you need is included. The glass basically installs itself after you place it on the phone. No bubbles! No marks of any kind! Amazing! This is SO much better than anything else I've ever tried, such as Zagg and BodyGuardz, which are a real pain to install, and various cheaper varieties of films, which applied more easily but looked junky after a while. If it weren't for the speaker and home button cutouts, you wouldn't even be able to tell the iCarez protector was there. And at the current price, it's an amazing bargain. I can't see how the $30-40 and up items could be much better than this.
