Apple Resumes Selling Belkin's InvisiGlass Ultra Screen Protector for iPhone X Following Durability Improvements

Yah, I don't understand the allure of screen protectors when the glass itself is already super-strong.

I was going to say something similar as you did. I don’t use screen protectors, and this is coming from somebody that also does not use cases where I don’t have to. I’m also cautious with my iPhones and I don’t put them in pockets with other items that could scratch it. And I have no scratches on any of my iPhones today, at least no scratches visible to My eye. I think screen protectors are great for added protection, but I personally do not think they are needed. I have always been pleased with the durability with Apples display and quality.

No thanks. I would never buy a glass-based screen protector. Only mylar/plastic/vinyl/etc. for me.

Maybe Apple could find a way to make a sandwiched screen material, similar to automotive glass...

Yah, I don't understand the allure of screen protectors when the glass itself is already super-strong.

I have the original version on mine still, no issues so far.

Happy to say that the improved iBelkin invisiglass
Is a much better product than before
It’s not cracking and is a quality product

What does that mean exactly?
Like reduce clarity?

Two fold: (1) the screen door effect is like looking at a something through a mesh of some sort. It's very subtle. If you can't imagine it perhaps Google it. (2) The screen protector by being anti-reflective will also act like a prism that some white light will be refracted so you might seem artifacts of a rainbow of colors especially when looking at a white background.

No, I don't think so. At least not from my experience.

They have 2 versions with the black rim. It's not vinyl; it's just painted black under the glass. One version is case friendly and extends right up to the edge of the Apple leather case (to illustrate how far it goes), while another version covers even more of the display and is for those not using a case or using a case that doesn't curve around the display. And then they have a version without the black rim that is completely clear.

None of these block Face ID, and none have the rainbow effect (unless you improperly apply the one without the black rim). And I'm speaking from experience not from reading reviews (nothing wrong with that, but screen protector reviews are littered with people with differing expectations and ability to apply the protectors well without bubbles).
