I bought it at an extraordinary high cost relative to many of the other screen protectors that are out there because it came from OtterBox directly. I also bought it because it said it worked with their case. In the process of snapping the case on the screen protector shattered.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Geckosan,
"One Alpha Glass with a side effect of shattering" - this definitely does not sound like what you ordered, and we so apologize that this happened! This is certainly strange, as the screen protectors are engineered to work complementary to our cases. We would love to rectify the situation by sending you a warranty replacement, so please don't hesitate to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be glad to further assist you with this. Additionally, feel free to take a look at the link below for an installation video we made specifically for the Alpha Glass for the Galaxy S8+. This will help you apply the new glass perfectly to your touchscreen!
Used another brand...first one cracked almost immediately...they replaced it...the second one kept falling off...the Otter, though, works as it is supposed to...
Have had the screen protector on for only a week now and dust has already gotten between the phone screen and the Otter Box screen. It will have to come off. Looks like no screen protector for S8+

Hey Damek!
No screen protector for the S8+? Say it isn't so! We're so sorry to hear that dust was accumulating beneath your Alpha Glass - it sounds like there was a bigger gap between the screen protector and your touchscreen than we normally prefer. We would love to rectify the situation with a warranty claim, so please feel welcome to call our helpful Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be glad to further assist you with this!
The Otterbox Defender case with the Alpha glass is a great combination for the S8+! Otterbox did its homework on this. The Alpha glass provides really good scratch protection and DOESN'T REDUCE TOUCH SCREEN SENSITIVITY AT ALL - something that most other screen protectors fail to do. Still looks brand new after throwing the phone in my pocket with car keys every day. Price is more that the cheap products, but you get what you pay for.
I have had this on my phone for 3 weeks now. Seems to do it's job. easy to clean just wipe it off with a cloth. You really cannot tell it is on the phone that is how clear it is.
I was not as pleased as i thought i would be. I dropped my phone and the alpha glass screen protectd my phone but the screen protector shattered. was hoping it would have been stronger

Hey Beth!
We're glad to hear that the Alpha Glass fulfilled its destiny and protected your phone from a fatal fall, but we apologize that it cracked in the process! We would love to smooth things over with a warranty claim, so please feel free to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269. They'll get a new glass on your screen before you know it!
On its own, it's alright, but the case doesn't get along with it so well. It doesn't really stick to the screen, it slides around and I've had to readjust it multiple times since receiving it so my touch screen is fully functional. I don't want to go without screen protection, and Alpha glass is definitely going to protect it, I just wish it would stay put. If not for its constant mobility, I'd give it all 5 stars.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dear CassyJo,
Sounds like your Alpha Glass is just dying to do the "electric slide!" We apologize that it's not adhering to your touchscreen properly, but we think we can help. Just call our musical Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll help you jam out with a warranty replacement! We'll have a new glass sticking to your phone in no time.
When I ordered my alpha glass and defender case I wasn't really sure of what to expect, considering the new screen on my S8, once it arrived I was more than happy with the fit and protection the phone now has overall
