CrystalShield - Glass Screen Protector

Phone slipped out faulty RiteAid arm strap cracking Caudabe Crystal-Shield on pavment saving phone screen with no crack. Putting on replacement (comes in 2-pack) dropped sticky-side on floor. Emailed Caudabe replacing free with $5.95 shipping still under warranty. Thanks Caudabe for being accommodating with a butterfinger install. Third time's a charm — works perfect.

They make it easy to apply the screen accurately to your phone and provide the wet and cloth wipes to make your phone screen as dust-free as possible. But if you're like me and live where there's dust floating around (e.g., Earth), it's near impossible to keep it all out. Just have to hope for the best and live with the few specks trapped under the glass. Once they're there, I found no way to remove the dust from the backing of the glass protector, and if you're like me, you'll just make it worse by trying. Kind of a bummer to effectively lose one of the two screen protectors right off the bat, but in my experience, that seems to happen 50% of the time I've applied screen protectors.

Another protective glass for iPhone purchased :-) For several years I have been using screen glass from Caudabe for successive iPhone models and I have never been disappointed. Easy installation! I recommend it to all those undecided. Best regards!

For years, I used Otterbox products, but lately they seemed to be less durable. When this came across my screen, I thought I would give it a try and I am glad I did. This phone case is tough as nails and lighter than the other guys products. When the screen protector experienced "unexpected user errors" (I got in too big of a hurry with the placement), the customer service folks helped me get back on track in a fast. Sarah was great to get a replacement screen protector shipped, and I could go on and on about the overall quality of this company. The short version; they sell great products, buy some!!!

I stopped using screen "protectors" a few years ago. The thin film type were the only ones I knew, and they seemed pointless. But there was always a concern in the back of my mind that my keys or something similar would scratch my screen. So when I ordered a case for my new phone, I added these just to get free shipping. They seemed a little expensive until I opened the box. These things are solid, and for the first time ever, I felt like a screen protector was worth installing. And despite being rigid, I've had no trouble with touch sensitivity. I'm not someone who changes phones often, but when I do, these will definitely be a priority.
Regarding Installation: My story did not start out well. Each pack has two protectors, and despite my best efforts, both ended up in the garbage. The guide frame, while super helpful, also traps debris along the edges. The protectors themselves are incredibly sticky, almost to the point of being dust magnets. And the rigidity of the protectors, which is their best strength, is also their biggest weakness during installation. If you need to pull back a corner to remove dust, you have very little room to work with before the entire protector pops off. The other major downside of doing this is it's incredibly difficult, or impossible in my case, to get the protector to stick completely when reapplied.
However, I replied to Caudabe's automated email asking about my purchase. I told them about my frustrating experience, but that I didn't want to write a negative review. They immediately sent me a new pack even though I hadn't asked for any type of replacement or refund. Admittedly, I was afraid of messing up the installation process two more times, but I'm happy to report that the first protector from the new pack installed perfectly. And while my experience with customer service prompted me to write this review and one for the Paragon case, it did not influence what I think about the quality of the products, which have both been excellent.
