This is the first alpha glass product that I've ever purchased, and I must say it is pretty nifty. Protects my screen well and goes perfect with the defender series case. The only thing I don't like is that there are currently like 2, or 3, specs of dust under neath the screen protector and they tend to move around a lot, but there's really no more than that. Keep on keeping on!
This glass screen protector is ok. I installed the glass screen protector on April 18th when I got my phone, It was easy to install but the next day I noticed it is lifting from the top where the speaker is. The protector is also very reflective making the phone hard to use during in the sunlight at full brightness. It also has a small rainbow effect on it even though it has the dots to protect against that from happening. But the screen protector fits seamlessly with my otter box case.
I purchased both the alpha glass and defender case. While the glass is great and the defender case is great, they don't work well together. The front doesn't overlap the glass fully and you have to take it apart and adjust it constantly. It's like they made the case and the glass was an afterthought. Not the best fit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi E moore,
We appreciate your feedback! We’re sorry that this Alpha Glass and Defender case are not cooperating as well as they should. This is strange as they were designed to work impeccably together.
We certainly want to get more information so that we can get things turned around as soon as possible. Please give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we will be more than happy to assist in any way that we can!
I purchased this product expecting to recive a perfect product like the Alpha Glass for the Galaxy S6. But this screen protector has never fully adheard to the screen. In the midel of the screen you can easily feel that there is a gap. And because of this you have to push much harder to get a response. Not to mention despite me paring this with a commuter case, dirt seems to find its way under the screen protector. It doesn't even just stay by the edges it slow moves towards the center of the screen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Steven,
That is odd that this Alpha Glass is not fitting as well as it should and that dirt is somehow sneaking underneath. We are sorry that this is happening and we absolutely want to rectify this unfortunate predicament as soon as possible.
Please give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we will gladly get a warranty replacement arranged in practically no time at all!
It's an otter box, what more can I say. Hands down the best case out there. Very durable and not bulky at all. It's accentuates the phone very well. 5 stars all day.
Alpha glass fit perfectly, Combined with Defender series case made for a great case. Took about a week for the alpha glass to settle in , Buttons on case aligned perfectly. Don't rush your installation and check that all your buttons work after put case on, If one doesnt, don't panic, pull it apart and realign the case..tolerances matter..
Bought it to protect my Galaxy 8+ as I do a lot of traveling. It has not let me down. The fit is perfect for the defender case. It feels and looks like there is no screen protector on the phone. Very pleased with the product. I trust all my electronics to Otterbox -- 5th Otterbox product I have bought. Would like a variety of colors and design with the defender series.
Currently have this glass protector on my Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus along with the Otter Box Symmetry case. Both fit absolutely perfectly together and the curved front screen is easily accessible even with the case on. Appears to be tough as nails. The screen is crystal clear and has not scratched. Seems to be really high quality. I am not too concerned about dropping my phone as it does seem well protected.
