I am so sick and tired of replacing screen protectors on my phone. Every brand and shop I’ve tried ends up with the same problem- the protector starts lifting from the edges. What screen protectors are you guys using? I wanted to get a liquid one, but many people said they are rubbish.
TIA
 
with modern day gorilla glass is it really needed .i personally dont use one ,havent for at least 4 years and screens are pristine .
 
Doesn't it protect the screen from cracks if it accidentally falls by absorbing some of the impact?

Which phone? I hate the solid 'tempered glass' ones. I always look for those soft film ones.

The screen protectors suck because it has a curved screen and usually those protectors only stick on the edges.
You will probably have to look at the gel type screen protectors that conform to the curved edges.

A high quality screen protector on flat screens usually doesn't lift on the sides.

No, screen protectors do not really protect against drops and it is more for scratch protection.

The only reason why it seems that screen protectors protect against drops is because it breaks much easier and is made of much thinner glass than the actual screen.
 
Buy a good cover that covers the edges of your phone. Then just get a film type protector to protect a giant scratches. Been doing this for years.
