Fits the screen, Poor performance for high cost
on June 27, 2016
Posted by: Steve
A few of the other S7 protectors I got (including one of Zagg's) did not fit the curves on the edge of the phone although they were marketed for the S7.
Then I got the Glass Curve for the S7. It fits the curves on the edge of the phone perfectly. However, I have a few issues with the Glass Curve:
Black Edges: This protector has a black trim around the edges with clear glass spots for the cameras, sensors, home button, back key, and recent app key at the bottom of the phone. I'm not sure the purpose of the black trim. All it seems to do is magnify how difficult it is to line up the back key and recent app key with the corresponding clear glass spots on the screen protector. Obviously, I did not line my protector up perfectly when putting it on, but it is not too far off. However, because the clear glass spots on the screen protector are pretty much the exact same shape and size as the actual back key and recent app key, if you don't line the protector up perfectly, you WILL see it.
Front camera and sensors: The protector seems to interfere with the front sensors. I have my phone set to Auto Brightness. The phone no longer adjusts screen brightness accurately. It doesn't seem to be able to tell when I am in a sunny place anymore until I tilt the phone multiple ways for the sensor to pick up the sun. I am not sure exactly what about the protector screws it up, but I am suspecting that it is the black trim casting a slight shadow over the sensor when the light hits it at an angle.
Fingerprints: This protector picks up finger prints like no other. Maybe I have sweaty hands? But it doesn't matter, before the protector, I didn't have to worry about fingerprints. With the protector, I have to wipe the phone every time I use it.
Screen sensitivity: The screen sensitivity is negatively affected. I find myself having to press hard constantly or having to press multiple times at all points on the screen. I can't use the side of my thumb or finger without multiple presses like I used to. Also, it is difficult to pull down the status bar from the top of the screen. And the edges seem to be less sensitive, I have to press items on the edge of the screen multiple times. I suspect these last two are due to the black trim messing with the edges of the phone's screen.
The phone is still functional, but definitely does not work as well as it did. These are minor annoyances, however, I can not justify the high cost of this protector considering all this issues.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
