I purchased an Alpha Glass screen protector and I was a little unsure whether I would like it. My two concerns were the ease of installation and whether the phone screen would still be responsive.
The touch screen on my phone is horrible with this screen protector on!!! I feel like I wasted my money as it's close to impossible to use my phone now. Typing has become so frustrating. I do NOT suggest this product to anyone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

After having my screen protector on my Note 9 for less than a month, I dropped my phone on my driveway and the screen protector just popped off! This happened early morning and before I realized it had popped off, I stepped on it and broke it!

Hey Nunyabiz,
Sorry to hear that your morning didn't end up going as planned! We definitely understand why this would be both surprising and disappointing, and our friendly Otters would love to remedy the situation with a warranty claim. Please don't hesitate to give them a quick call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be glad to further assist you with this!
The application instructions were vague but the process wasn't complicated. The microfiber cloth left a little speck of fabric under my screen. It will bug me till the end of time, as I won't be using my 1 time replacement for debris under the glass. I am posting so that others pay attention during application and that otterbox sends out microfiber clothes that have had excess debris removed.
Otherwise, this alpha glass compliments the defender case that I purchased. I was really grumpy that the case itself didnt come with anything and I went through 2 screen protectors before buying the alpha glass. I am not to keen on the gap between the glass and the case itself. I have had otterbox cases since 2011 and the advent of a separate screen protector is awkward. Like "oh boy, I got a new phone at my phone carrier, but the case didn't come with a screen protector , the ones in store weren't working" (long story, as I was given the wrong case and slippery slope from there) I love the otterbox brand and trust it with my life... but please.... if your going to distribute you case ......distribute the screen protection as well..... when protection isn't used, it costs everyone more money. I would have purchased this item in store when I got the case and been happy with 1 but ended up going through 3....

I don't particularly care for this screen protector and the Cover for the note 9. I have to press multiple times and extremely hard to type. It ou s very time consuming and annoying. I prefer the Otterbox screen protector and case I had for my Galaxy S7
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
