Mkeke - same quality as $40 versions, and you get more
TL/DR is at the bottom of this review if you want to skip all this. My story starts a little while ago when my company got me a new work phone - the iPhone XR. I know I'm pretty rough with my phones (and with 2 young kids in the house) so I immediately went to a....popular phone company store, and asked for a screen protector. The only one they had in stock was a $40 protector, but they would install it. I thought it was a bit expensive, even though I would be getting reimbursed for it. Oh, and you only got ONE protector in the box. But...$40 means it's much better right? To their credit the guy TRIED to do a good job. He used the film cleaner on it over, and over again...almost too much. He applied the protector and I went on my way thinking I was all set to go. When I got back to work I noticed a tiny black speck in the middle of the screen. I tried cleaning it and unfortunately came to the conclusion that it was beneath the protector. I knew it wasn't their fault, some flying small debris must have landed on it between cleaning and applying. I was bummed, and since I am super anal about the screens I knew I had to replace it. I probably could have gone back there and had them replace it for free again, but I didn't want to go through all that hassle.
So my search on Amazon began and I came across Mkeke. It had high reviews, was a really good price, so I went for it. Once I got it, I was surprised to find how much came in the box. They provided not one, but THREE protectors. Also, it came with a bunch of cleaning products. One cloth cleaner, a plastic guide to go over your phone to help with application, and 3 packs that included an alcohol swab, and film cleaner (think thin sticky paper) to get any debris off the glass. I applied my first protector and....I screwed it up and got a small piece of debris under the protector. It wasn't a big deal since I still had 2 spare, but it ended up being a good thing. Why would me messing up be a good thing? Well it gave me a chance to compare the $40 product, and the Mkeke product. I held both products in my hand and tried to find a difference. I bent them, I looked at the thickness of each, I looked at the size, and...they were both the same. It actually got to the point where I had put so many fingerprints over both that I literally couldn't tell the difference and forgot which product was which. I then applied the second one and was happy with this application. No dust, everything was covered, and was easy to do. Clean the screen with the pad, use the film to get any debris off, put the cover over the phone, peel off the plastic from the cover, and put it on. If I had known I was going to get this much, and could apply it myself better, I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of going to the phone store in the first place. So if you're on the fence on whether to get these, I HIGHLY recommend you do so!
TL/DR; These screen protectors are literally the same as the $40 version from big name phone stores. In addition, you get 3 protectors instead of 1, and you get a lot more items to help you apply the protectors successfully. Thanks Mkeke!
