Review on OtterBox ALPHA GLASS SERIES Clear Screen Protector for iPhone 6/6s/7/8 - Retail Packaging: A Reliable Choice to Safeguard Your Phone's Display by Andrew Holman

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't fit iPhone 8

The screen protector "fits" the iPhone 8's display. But as others have pointed out, it doesn't fit flush and the edges of the protector are raised to create air pockets. One day in my jeans pocket, along with the OtterBox COMMUTER SERIES case and pocket lint around the edges, got under my lip, which is clearly visible on a black iPhone. This is incredibly frustrating as I was so excited to get the lint and bubble free glass protector clean. Check out the photos provided by other iPhone 8 setup reviewers to see what I'm talking about. check the reviews before you buy. Now I installed it, the packaging is thrown away, and most likely there is no way to return it. However, I will go down this route and change this review when I have an update. My process for a clean screen install: I used the included alcohol whip and cleaned every inch of the screen. Use the included microfiber cloth to remove additional stains. I wrapped some tape around my index and middle finger sticky side out, went around and picked up any extra lint left by the microfiber cloth/dust in the air etc. Then. I removed the bottom plastic from the screen, placed it on top, and then ran my finger down the center of the screen from the speaker to the home button. Then slide to the sides around the perimeter. I had no air bubbles and had a perfectly clean setup with no lint and air bubbles. With the exception of the sides, the entire screen of the phone is misshapen.

Pros
  • Nice to use

  • Zero
