Smooth but not bubble free
on October 9, 2026
Posted by: Joewol
Expertise:Expert
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The crease down center is not going away as many mention. Bubbles up near edge with case. And still kinda reflective. But it is smooth and doesn't feel like anything on the screen which why i bought it after using on prior ultras. Wish they improved the application like with s23 ultra
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there Joewol,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy S26 Ultra Anti-Reflective Film. This film is designed to maintain a smooth touch response, reduce reflections, and provide an extra layer of screen protection. It’s great to hear that the surface feels smooth and natural during use.
If you are experiencing bubbles or lifting near the edges, please ensure that the film is properly aligned and that your case is not pressing against the edges. This can help keep the film securely in place.
We appreciate your feedback on the application experience, and thank you for choosing Samsung accessories.

Don't buy. Scratches easily and unknown reason
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: MTR852
Expertise:Expert
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed this screen protector on brand new S26 Ultra. After a few months of normal use, swiping, the film starts to have scratches where the thumb swipes up and down on and as well tiny scratch spots all over other areas of the screen protector film. Did not have any keys or sharp objects on the screen. This film is poor quality and won't be buying Samsung screen protectors again. Overpriced for this low quality.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there Nike2,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Galaxy S26 Ultra Anti-Reflecting Film. Its glare-reducing finish, clear display visibility, and precise coverage are designed to highlight the Galaxy S26 Ultra screen. This film protects your Galaxy phone's display while ensuring clarity and durability.
The anti-reflective film reduces glare, resists fingerprints, and shields against scratches and dust, all while allowing seamless ultrasonic fingerprint recognition—making it a protective solution for a screen that truly stands out.
We understand that the center seam can be noticeable when you expect a smooth, nearly invisible appearance. It is common to see lines on your phone’s display after application; however, these should disappear as the adhesive dries. Please allow up to 48 hours for the screen protector to fully set on your phone.
For guidance on achieving the perfect installation, please check out the link below. Your feedback has been shared with the appropriate team. Thank you for being part of the Samsung community.

Just take your time with the installing
on June 20, 2026
Posted by: Arfn
from Chicago
I’ve been in the Samsung ecosystem for a long time. I still remember when phones like my old Galaxy S9 and S10+ came with good factory-installed screen films that lasted long without bubbles or peeling edges. Since then, I’ve used many good-rated 3rd-party films, but almost all of them eventually suffered from lifting edges or trapped dust after a few months (probably a price I paid for those beautiful curved screens).
For my new S26 Ultra, I just wanted to save its non-reflective screen property. Despite all the low stars and the higher price tag than other 3rd-party options, I decided to give this official anti-reflective film a shot.
Most negative reviews complain about bubbles and trapped dust. Flying dust is like a nightmare, so I tried following a popular blog tip: turned on a hot shower in my bathroom for a few minutes and did the setup inside the bathroom (!) > The result? Absolutely zero dust trapped underneath and eliminated my biggest headache.
I was a bit worried at first when I found Samsung didn't include those common alcohol pads in the kit. However, I just followed the included instructions (also thinking that Samsung might've avoided them for a reason) and took the time, and it worked great for me.
The included mounting jig made the alignment very easy. Right after installation, I had 2 bubbles near the edge which I easily pressed out before peeling Sticker 2. I also had two small bubbles near the center. I left them alone, and they completely disappeared overnight. There was a small, around 4mm horizontal air-line right in the center from the application spli which didn't disappear completely overnight, but it faded a lot by the next day and is now almost unnoticeable (hoping it'll vanish soon to respect my 5 stars!).
I then waited about 10 mins after installation before putting my phone case back (not bought from Samsung) on, and I’ve had absolutely no issues with the edges lifting so far.
The best thing is I'm not seeing any fingerprint smudges and can't feel any difference between before vs after installing the protector. Hope this helps!

Wish I Had Read The Reviews.

Both films had a visible crease in the middle across the screen. Makes your screen look like a Z Flip device after applying this product. Works great but looks terrible. Total waste of time and money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate your feedback. Thank you for choosing Samsung.

Pretty good screen protector
on May 31, 2026
Posted by: Jenny
from SC
Expertise:Intermediate
I applied mine very easy because of the install guide. Just be careful to remove dust particles as much as you can. There will be a line in the middle because of benting while applying but it goes away after few days. Among different brands of screen protector this one is known to be most anti-reflecting but still clear and not bulky.

Garbage

Posted by: Cevap
Used up both of them and still couldn't install it without a clear break in the middle. Total trash product. There's a reason 99% of modern screen protectors come with an installation case and are super easy to use. This product shockingly does not. It simply doesn't work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
