Galaxy S7 Edge Screen Protector [GS7 Edge] [3D Curved Full Cover] GPEL Accessory Glass by Corning Tempered Glass, 100% Replacement Guarantee, Premium Quality Glass in Korea (Black)

After watching several review videos and reading some articles on this product, I decided that it was the best screen protector for my Galaxy S7 Edge.The contents of the package were fine with nothing missing. Instructions followed what I found demonstrated in videos.After following the directions exactly, I placed the screen protector in-place. All edges were pressed down to secure it to the glass. Immediately, I noticed that although all of the holes at the top of the protector were exactly where they should be, the bottom edge of the protector appeared to be a little shorter than where it should be. All buttons were able to function without a problem. I left the phone out overnight to eliminate any handling of the screen protector.In the morning, I placed the phone in my jacket pocket. When I pulled the phone out of my pocket at work, I noticed that the bottom right edge was lifting up slightly. I pressed it back down in place and left it on my desk. When leaving for home, I placed it back in my pocket.Once home, I noticed that there appeared to be a crack in the screen protector. See picture. I then was able to very easily lift the protector off of the phone screen. There was hardly any adhesive on the edges of the screen protector, so it is no wonder it lifted away so easily.I would not purchase this product again. However, I had already purchased another one for my wife's phone before this happened. $30 down the drain and didn't last 24 hours.I can perfectly understand that it is difficult to make a screen protector for this phone, but, when you did make a good protector, make sure you use good adhesion.

I bought this based on a few things.1) I wanted a tempered glass protector.2) Reviews and videos that said this has good adhesive compared to others.I'll start by saying I do like this screen protector.Pros:Was easy to installClear, no bubbles or discrepancies at allFeels alright, smooth easy to wipe and cleanAside from constantly wiping my phone until I felt it was clean enough to stick the protector on. When I did stick it on it went right into place and didn't have to re align it at all. I think the curved screen helps with that because there's only so much it could even try to slide left or right because of the cut fit.The glass feels alright somewhere between glass and plastic.I personally haven't had any bubbles or rainbow effect at all.The screen is extremely clear. I really can't even tell there's a protector on it.Cons:Shape, though that doesn't bother me personallyFeel and sensitivityFirst off the protector covers the WHOLE screen. this is a good thing. However it makes it uncooperative with some cases that will push it up from underneath. I use a supcase unicorn beetle pro which fits plastic over the top on the protector first and fits the case around that so it doesn't push on the protector from the bottom. The upside for other protectors that are cut back more is they're usable with other cases but obviously don't cover the whole screen making it more vulnerable. So choose what you value more.Sensitivity is where it loses a star. It isn't terribly bad or unusable, however. It responds just fine with most things but when it comes to typing is where you notice it. some letters don't register a lot. with auto-correct this doesn't matter much but it's noticeable. I also have trouble at times with shift and the symbol button. It either takes a few presses to switch or wont switch back. I want to say some of this has to do with me being a musician and having calluses on my fingers. So if a harder part of skin is what's touching the screen it wont register. But i do believe most is just the extra barrier of glass causing the unresponsiveness.Summary and advice about using screen protectors. I understand adding the extra layer will never give the full responsiveness as not having a protector on. So you have to think of screen protectors as a give and take. You sacrifice ~$20 and a little screen responsiveness so if it drops and cracks you just replace the protector instead of spending $100 for a new screen on the phone itself.It seems as if people expect to get a protector that will leave the phone just as responsive or expect the protector to not break. (same with cases) When the point is so if something happens it breaks the protector NOT the phone. So if the protector breaks and your phone is fine, it's done it's job people. The good thing about this protector is if it breaks there's a lifetime warranty. Take a picture of it and send it to GPEL and theyll send you a new one.*Edit/UpdateMy screen Protector cracked from my pocket knife pressing against it (had just used my pocket knife and put it in the wrong pocket with my phone) the good news, only the protector was cracked. Protected my actual phone screen exactly as expected.The bad news. I had to get another protector.I actually decided to get the Zagg Curve because it has a device lifetime warranty for replacements. However I returned it because it's new "case friendly" version isn't friendly with the supcase unicorn beetle.I decided to get this protector again for 2 reasons.1) has more adhesion imo than other protectors.2) since it covers the whole screen when you put the unicorn beetle pro on it helps hold the protector in place in case the adhesion isn't sufficient.I just received and put on my replacement and it was as easy to install as the last one and works all the same.My disappointment comes that the protector had some (at least 10) minor nick's and scratches out of the box... it's very noticible when putting it on the phone and if the screen is off and you looks close but not noticible when in use.Because of this I'd rate a 3.5 if I could. But I won't so I'll leave it at a 4..

Overall, I like this screen protecter. It fits weel, the adhesion for me is great rarely any lifting and it was easy to install. The only things that disturbs me s that it feels like a heavy plastic and not tempered glas . The biggest isue however is that I started getting some small stress fractures on the edges after about 3 months, which rapidly spread into larger fractures. I was happy enough with it to purchase a replacement, but the new one is only a little more than 2 months old and I see a couple small stress fractures starting. I do not drop the phone, bang it against anything whatsoever. I am wondering if it starts to get brittle with heat from the phone or just a flaw in the material. Regardless of how much I like this, and how well it works, I can't spend $25 or $30 every few months to keep replacing it. It has a 30 day warranty, but the problems start arising 60-90 days after installation.

I was hesitant in purchasing this GPEL tempered glass screen protector because of the bad reviews that I have read. But after watching some videos on YouTube about the various screen protectors available for the Galaxy S7 Edge, they all came to the same conclusion. This is the best fit for the S7 Edge. After applying the screen protector, I set it back in the box my phone came in and put the sheet of thin foam that was in the packaging with the screen protector, shut the box up and placed a thick book on top of it. I fought my temptation to use my phone and left it over night. There was not gap or bubbles and it fits the phone flawlessly. I put the Spingen Wallet case I purchased for the S7 Edge and it is screen protector friendly. The case fits the phone without lifting up the edges of the screen protector.
