Application is fairly simple, but there is a risk of air bubbles with most phone screen cases. If you’re prone to accidental drops, users report the case does shatter easily, although when doing so it still does its job of protecting your phone screen underneath. This might not be a dealbreaker since TETHYS are an affordable option and come in packs of three, so the expense is minimal if you need to replace your screen protector. The application can always be a challenge with screen protectors, but Belkin makes it simpler with the included EasyAlign sticker, along with a dust removal sticker and a cleaning cloth. It’s only designed to withstand up to 3H hardness though, which is a little disappointing when so many competitors are offering 9H products. The screen protector still does a great job shielding your screen from scratches and drops. If it does break, however, it tends to shatter meaning a lot of pieces to be cleaned up. While only a minor issue to some, since the case still does its job of protecting your screen underneath, it may be a larger issue for those who frequently drop their phones. A guide frame is included to bolster the application, making it easy to line up your phone and screen protector accurately. Additionally, the crystal clear, thin screen protectors don’t impede the functionality of the phone. But they can be prone to chips or cracks over time and may need more frequent changing than other bands would. In addition to protecting your privacy, this screen protector features 9H protection from breaks or cracks, easy application, and curved edges to ensure your entire screen is covered, not just the flat. While the privacy filter works well, it may not suit parents who use their phones for entertaining their kids or those who aren’t bothered by onlookers. It also comes with an installation tray and mat, making application easy and free from the dreaded air bubbles. ZAGG’s product also offers a resilient tempered glass to guard against drops, scratches, and annoying fingerprint smudges, plus an antimicrobial coating. If your budget allows, and you spend a significant amount of time on your phone, you should consider this option. Install via the handy installation frame (included) to ensure perfect positioning. It’s worth noting the ESR only covers the flat part of the iPhone 11’s screen, meaning there will be a small gap between the curved edges of the phone. This helps with compatibility for phone cases, but seeing the exposed edges may be a nuisance if you’re not using a case. Although the product does a great job of protecting the screen when dropped, the corners of the screen protector can tend to peel up over time.
