Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector [Glas.tR EZ Fit] designed for Galaxy S23 (2023) [2 Pack] - Case Friendly

I'm impressed with this product. Its clarity and ease of installation is wonderful. It fits tight to the edges of the phone screen, and fingerprints are almost not noticeable .

If you were like me and wanted full screen protection, this is the screen protector for you. Experience had shown me that even if the edge of the screen does not get high use, that artificial edge collects a lot of debris. Lots of debris results in scratches or at best dirty appearance. I was worried about the fingerprint reader and the fitting cases from other brands. First, if this screen protector interfere with any case, then that case is covering the actual screen. There is a very slight gap between the frame and the protector, that is slightly smaller than the lip of the frame. It just looks so natural as Samsung built the phone. I chose to pair it with the Ringke Fusion case in smoke and the two fit perfectly together.Now to installation, this is by far the easiest I've ever done and I've done many over the years. The wipes as with all brands, can leave some streaking residue albeit very, very little. If it does, wipe it with a good cleaning cloth made to camera lens or eyeglasses. I used the Walmart brand from the eyeglass store. Then using the stickers, start picking up all of the dust. My secret to removing the dust is use a small bright light that is shining from a side angle. Another phone propped on its side or something like the KunHe W1 COB lights works great. I love these super bright, USB-C rechargeable things. Without the bright light, you will be trapping a lot of dust.Add the camera lens protector from Spigen, Glas.tR EZ Fit Optik Pro for full protection that work with any case.Now to one slight problem in which there has to be a little give and take. Samsung calibrated their ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for the their screen's thickness. Not the thickness of adding more glass on top of that. As such, the fingerprint reader does not always work without some effort. Most of the time it is fine, others times like just after you clean and dried your hands, it will not. Steps to improve it working, delete and add more than one fingerprint after installing the screen protector. Another, is press a little harder and the last one is to breath on your finger much like fogging your glasses when cleaning them. If your fingers are too dry it will have some trouble. I've also added a routine as in Modes and Routines that keeps the phone unlock based on locations like your house. Either way, this is much better than the screen protector with a cutout for your finger. Thanks

Spigen does it again! I've been 100% thrilled with their "ToughArmor" phone cases for years, as they give me total confidence that my phone's protected, but I'd never purchased their screen protector before. Instead, I've used a variety of different screen protectors on several smart phones over the years and had just become resigned to the fact that installing them - ANY of them - was always going to be a painstaking, slow, frustrating (sometimes doomed) experience that I dreaded - it's a good thing they always came in 2 or 3-packs because I usually messed up at least 1 just getting them on. BUT FINALLY - a totally different method - this "auto-alignment installation kit" - that not only WORKS, but is also quick and easy and just a completely delightful, near-effortless experience! Never again will I mess with those little stickers that were supposed to keep the thing lined up but instead allowed it to slide out of place, not to mention the endless bubbles. Seriously, I cannot praise this type of installation enough - even though this 2-pack is a little pricier than I used to pay for screen protectors, it's worth every penny of difference just in the installation.Being Spigen, this protector has my full confidence in its quality, durability, and reliability. Another added bonus is this meets around the edges with my Spigen case perfectly whereas the no-name protectors I used to use left an annoying gap between protector and case. To sum, I enthusiastically recommend this screen protector, especially if you use a Spigen case, because of its quality and especially for the joy of installing it!!

Let me start off with the good.The installation frame is lovely. It made the entire experience so much easier. I was also happy to see that my Otterbox Defender Series Pro case had no issues with the glass. From the back to the front, I feel like my phone is truly safe. I'm happy I took the risk. I worried that I should have gone with a film in case the glass would be too thick, but I'm pleased to say that there is no curling.Granted, I only just finished installation When I installed my mom's protector and my own, I almost thought there was no product at all. Only when I had to reinstall my first failure (and still fail) did I truly recognized that there was a protector there.Now to talk about my struggles.First time I bought this product, I planned on using one protector for my mom and the second for myself. I applied my mom's easily and it fit well with her regular Samsung case. She also had no issues with her fingerprint recognition.My installation ended up with a bubble that refused to disappear, no matter how many times I reapplied. That was disappointing and stressful, since I paid for same-day shipping. At least my mom's phone was fully protected, because she has a habit of not taking care of her tech.I initially thought of buying another, but I saw a review saying a second box could be sent for free if there was an issue and my friend and mom agreed. Surprisingly, they were right. I sent an email, received a response the next business day, and received a new box the next week. Just now, I applied the protector and it went perfectly. A very small bubble appeared near the edge that was removed easily.Because of the frame and the potential issue with bubbles despite that, I will give this product a tentative 4 starts for "Easy to Install" and 4 starts for "Adhesion." I only failed once but succeeded twice and experienced good service, so I don't want to undersell.
