Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector [ Not Glass],Yootech [Full Coverage][Case Friendly][Anti-Scratch] Wet Applied Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Clear HD Anti-Bubble Film Well, I don’t really do reviews, but decided to do one here. I’d been looking for a good screen protector for the S7 Edge and had been reading all the reviews I could. I read all the “10 best protectors for the Galaxy S7 Edge” and all I got was a very generic description of the product. Not how they performed. I ended up reading all kinds of reviews and narrowed it down to 6 different protectors. I ended up buying all 6 to see which I liked better. I really wanted to buy a glass protector to try, but pretty much all of them had stories of them just cracking. My conclusion was that the curves on the glass ones either are not precise enough, the variance on the phones is too great for a hard protector to work or some other factor I am not getting. But in any event, I decided that the current technology really does allow a good glass protector for the curved edge S7 Edge. I felt that it had to be a pliable protector to stand a chance of molding and staying on, so all 6 of these are the flexible, non glass type. They also were some of the highest rated protectors. The 6 I bought were the following: 1. ILLUMI AquaShield Full Coverage Screen Protector for Galaxy S7 Edge HD Clear Anti-Bubble Film by AquaShield 2. Armorsuit MilitaryShield - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector 3. Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector [ Not Glass],Yootech [Full Coverage][Case Friendly] 4. Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector, Skinomi TechSkin (2-Pack,Case Friendly) 5. Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector, IQ Shield LiQuidSkin Full Coverage Screen Protector for Galaxy S7 Edge HD 6. Spigen Curved Crystal Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector with Crystal Film 3 Pack for Galaxy S7 Edge The most intriguing was the Spigen. It says curved crystal, but it is actually a plastic film that is curved. I thought it would be the best compromise. A flexible plastic but still molded curved. It turned out to be the worst by far of all six. It simply did not fit properly. It only would stick on one edge or the other. I had seen others say the same in reviews but I still liked the idea so much and there were enough good reviews that I still wanted to try it. It really is a waste of money. I am returning it The next one I tried was the Skinomi. I had had good luck with their products in the past and thought this would be a good bet. The Protector was too small in my opinion. It was too short and it also was not wide enough. Its edges were in the middle of the curve and my fingers always felt them. I did not like it. The film felt good and adhered well, but it did not fit well. I am also returning that one. After seeing the lack of fit, I measured the width on the second screen protector. It was about 71mm. I measured the rest and found that the AquaShield and the Armorsuit were even smaller at 70mm. I know if I did not like the feel of 71mm, I was not going to like 70, so I am just saying that they do not fit properly and am returning them. They really need to be wider to cover properly. This leaves the last two – the IQShield and the Yootech. The Yootech had the highest ratings and it did not disappoint. It did not go all the way to the very edge, but it was very close. I could not feel where it ended with my fingers. Probably with fingernails, but that is not how you use the edge. You have your finger run across or touch it on the curved part and for all intents and purposes, it was full width. The cloth was made out of a material that cleaned the screen and the protector well. It gave you some dust stickers and an alcohol cleaning pad. The openings were cut well. The protector did not go all the way around the openings, but it went up to them and surrounded them. I do recommend this protector. The adhesive was aggressive and it sent on the easiest. The only nits I have to pick is that the material is not the hardness that some of the others were. I can’t say it feels gummy, but just not has hard as some of the others. It probably needs to be to stick so well. The other nit is that because of the softness, it is easier to trap bubbles under it. I have two very small ones. I can take it off and re-apply but they are too small to really worry about it. My theory is that since the material is softer, the plastic does not help to push out the bubbles as well. You really have to be meticulous and make sure all the bubbles are gone. The last was the IQ Shield. It measured 73mm and truly went edge to edge. The material is harder than the Yootech and I like the feeling better, but it shows fingerprints too easily. Kind of like a greasy residue even when you have just washed your fingers. The cloth they give you is not as good as Yootechs. When I cleaned the screen with it, it remained hazy. Then I used the Yootech cloth and it was clean. It takes more patience to install this one because it is harder and you have to keep coaxing the edges down until it finally dries. It goes right to the very edge and that is good, but I am also worried that there may not be enough play when I put on a case and it may lift. There is no alcohol pad or dust stickers, but the fit is the best and the openings go all the way around what they are protecting. The nits on this one are that the screen really gets hazy quick and will be a chore to constantly keep clean. It is also a recommended protector. I am going to buy a few cases and see how the IQ Shield and the Yootech can withstand them. That will tell me which one I really want, but I think these two are the cream of the crop today. Picking a protector for this phone is a chore and I took the time to do this hoping that it might help someone.
