Review on EGV Protector Compatible Tempered Installation by Chris Norman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits Samsung A42 - a bit difficult to fit correctly

The product is sufficient and serves its purpose and the price is reasonable. Applying it correctly is not as easy as the video instructions suggest. I suspect one of the glass solutions will face similar issues when applied to a phone. If a tiny particle of dust manages to get to the face of the phone or attach itself to the screen protector before they fuse together, you have a bubble that you can't remove unless you remove the new glass from the phone and clean it again. Phone. Do not try to wipe the side of the glass next to the phone with an alcohol wipe as it has a special coating. Just use an alcohol wipe on the phone and if you need to remove dust from the glass, just use a sticky dust remover. Our A42 kit came with a guide frame that in our case sat too tightly on the phone, causing the first phone's glass to be slightly off-center. When removing the guide frame I wanted to catch and lift the newly applied glass. So on the second phone I didn't use the guide box and got better results for the centered app. Your results may vary. To remove air bubbles, follow the video instructions and slowly push them out. I suspect the video is sped up a bit since trying to push them fast doesn't work. Slow motion makes it possible. After installation, the glass looks good. It doesn't cover 100% of the phone's glass, but it does cover 100% of the visible area. When used correctly, it looks pretty good and I'm happy with the result. The fingerprint scanner and touchscreen work great with glass.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
