It was not on 2 days and cracked at the on off button on my Samsung S8 plus and it doesn't even come close enought to the button to have it be the cause it looks like and I had not dropped it at all. So have to thik to much pressure as it wraps around face. before installing I watch UTube to make sure I was doing it right and was pretty straight forward and easy to install

Hi Greg,
We are sorry that this Alpha Glass cracked in the first couple of days. We completely understand why this would be disappointing and we are glad to see that we already have a warranty replacement in the works.
It will soon leave our warehouse and you will receive an email with tracking information. If you have any OtterBox questions please feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269. We are happy to help!
If you don't position the glass perfectly, the power button becomes difficult to press. Without a case the power button is easy to press but with the case and the alpha glass the power takes some effort to press. I've had to take the case off and try to press and .ove the glass just so the power button presses normally. After a couple of days, it seems that the glass moves and then the power button becomes more difficult to press. On the plus side, the glass doesn't scratch at all. I'm an electrician and I always have screws, drywall anchors, and tools in my pockets. The screen protector does not scratch at all. I'm impressed with that aspect. The buttons becoming difficult to press is my only gripe.
I never like to write a negative review, but I cant lie either. The alpha glass is a brilliant idea, however they arent compatible with otter box's own cases. The case i got from you guys keeps pushing the alpha glass around and ending up underneath of it, causing it to crack EVERYWHERE. So now the phone i paid $900 for looks so bad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

One side of the screen stopped working when touched. When tried to get the screen working again the screen protector broke. For this since I have a Otterbix case. Very disappointed.

Hey there Fpeck,
We're so sorry to hear that your experience with the Alpha Glass screen protector was disappointing, to say the least!

I had to take this off of my phone because the touch screen lost all sensitivity and the facial recognition would not work at all once I put it on. Very disappointed.

Hey mncs,
We're disappointed too! Here at OtterBox, we want you to have a screen protector that offers full access to the uniquely curved infinity display on the Galaxy S8+, and we apologize that you were losing touch sensitivity. Additionally, it is odd that the facial recognition won't work, specifically because we design our products to allow functionality of all device features. Regardless, our fantastic Otters will be thrilled to send out a new, responsive Alpha Glass under our warranty, so please feel free to call them at 1-855-688-7269!

Dear Jjdocz,
Sorry to hear that your Alpha Glass is having trouble with sensitivity! Here at OtterBox, we think you deserve to have a responsive screen protector that provides full access of the Galaxy S8+ infinity glass. The Alpha Glass and the Defender are meant to be companion pieces, so they should be working together seamlessly. Not to worry - our super-sleuth Otters are on the case! Please feel free to ring them up at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll start the investigation! We'll have a more receptive glass on your phone screen before you know it!
bought an Alpha Glass for my S8+ and I am totally unsatisfied with the product.
Although the application has been made as recommended by the application manual, is starting to accumulate dirt between the phone and the Alpha Glass. The protective sticker (that comes in the inner part of the Alpha Glass) is of a smaller size than the Alpha Glass itself, in addition to the visual problem (marks all around the phone) also is accumulationing dirt in these areas.
I do not recommend.
