ZAGG - InvisibleShield Glass Screen Protector for Apple® iPhone® 5, 5s and 5c (1st generation) - Clear

I was a little hesitant about the price at first, but would buy this again in an instant! This screen protector is the clearest, smoothest most responsive Zagg I've ever had. If you didn't know how the phone looked before the Zagg was on it you would never know the phone had a protector. Being glass, there are no gaps or windows for the sensors like on the film Zaggs. the camera and proximity sensor work flawlessly through it!

I've owned the first gen zagg shield on my iPhone 3G. It never felt like the glass it was protecting. It was rubbery and your fingers slightly stuck as you dragged your fingers around. A little imprecise when selecting items but not bad. It started peeling up and had to buy another. It was peeling as well when I got the iPhone 4. Installation was always a little tricky. Had to keep the shield and the phone dowsed in the special installation fluid. Never like drowning my phone in liquids. I've owned the HD version for my iPhone 4 and 5. An improvement over the first gen. Less rubbery, much closer in feel to the glass it was protecting (but not perfect). However I still had peeling issues. Same installation issues. These new glass shields are just about perfect! Feels like real glass. Fingers move smoothly with no sticking or imprecise gestures. I've had it for almost a year on my iPhone 6 with no peeling issues. I use a damp wad of toilet paper to clean the screen and phone (always have) and there are no scratches. Installation was much easier as well. Didn't have to douse it in fluid. Only slight issue is the iPhone 6 screen rounds over at the edges and the screen could have been factory cut a tiny fraction shorter to allow for imprecise installation. You need to be dead-on or you'll have a faint line where the screen cover isn't sitting flush with the phone's glass. As it is however it's never tried to peel. Great product! Just bought one for my wife's iPhone 5s. Tip: Use a phone case that has a raised lip around front screen. I'm using the Otter Box commuter series (I think). It's their lower profile cover that isn't waterproof. The raised edge prevents the screen cover from catching an edge on something (i.e. your finger nail, pants pockets, etc.) and starting the peeling process.

This is a very clear and smooth screen. Covers the front of my phone and I love the way it feels.

I have purchased two of these. One for my iPhone 5s and one for my daughter's 5c. The one on the 5c developed two very significant chips along each side as well as a hairline crack along the entire width of the screen. These occurred one day after installation. The one on the 5s has a very minor scuff along the edge (I have no idea where this came from, as I truly baby my electronics). I am somewhat upset about the new "free replacement policy" that only charges you for the shipping charges at a cost of $6.99. That is one heck of a s/h charge for a free replacement. Bottom line...I expected better out of Zagg. What happened to the so-called "diamond hardness factor"?

My friend and I didn't come to Best Buy to purchase new phones. The sales person presented the limited time promotion for the iPhone 5C. He advised purchasing this shield because it had a smudge free, cleaner surface. He advised that we pay for installation at the store because they were difficult to put on. We find the installed screen often unresponsive to touch & distracting when viewing images. In hindsight we were happier with our previous phones and otter boxes. Total waste of money!!

Long story short I was getting into my car and didn't realize that my phone had fallen out of my pocket. I left to run my errands not realizing that my phone was laying in the middle of the street. Shortly after I left it began to rain and a storm ensued. I returned home an hour and 45 minutes later and used find-my-phone to locate the device. I could hear it pinging from outside and assumed that it was coming from somewhere in the car. When I went down my walkway to my car, I realized that the pinging was originating from the middle of the street. (I live in San Francisco so you can imagine how busy our streets are) I ran to pick up the phone from the asphalt and I was horrified and devastated to see that the screen was shattered into a million pieces. (By the way it was only wearing the rubber portion of my Otter Box, so no hard barrier). I rushed into the house and immediately contacted my service provider to somehow figure out a way to get a new phone within the next couple of hours being that it was Christmas eve. It was then that I looked down at the poor destroyed phone It hit me! I had purchased the invisible glass shield and had a Best Buy Team member install it onto my device. I then used my fingernail to pick back the shield and was absolutely astonished when I saw that my phone was in pristine brand-new condition. Not a scratch not a blemish not a smudge not a dent, my phone looked like it did the day that I purchased it!! And please don't forget that it was also raining outside!! My horror story turned into the revelation that some products still do exactly what they were designed to do, and on some very special and lucky occasions you happen to run across a brand that goes above and beyond your expectations! I am sold 100% and will never have another brand for the safety and the preservation of my device! the quality and the craftsmanship and the detail that these guys put into their products is in a class (glass, lol) all by itself! I would trust ZAGG with my children if they had glass faces!

The Glass screen protector was really easy to apply with no dust or anything underneath it. It is very clear and feels very durable. So far no scratches or anything on it. It's almost like nothing is there when you look at it, but you can tap it and feel how strong it is. I haven't dropped my phone yet, and hopefully won't, but I feel better about the screen with this on it.

I would highly recommend any shield by Zagg! They may be a little more pricey, but Zagg offers a lifetime warranty for their products if you just register it online, and they're military grade screen shields! The glass is nice because it's less greasy looking and easier to clean!
