my biggest complaint with a lot of plastic screen protectors, and the glass ones as well, is the black bezel around them. Why? Just why? The chance of getting an entirely perfect install is very low, there's usually a slight armount of misalignment and that's just enough for that black bezel to start covering pixels.
I haven’t used plastic screen protectors in years. I currently have a Spigen glass protector on my phone. Before that I was using a Benks Glass Warrior until I somehow got a deep scratch on it from my keys.
I use tech armor HD clear plastic because my experience with glass is they break easily. Also the glass adds some weight. I change mine every couple of months. I may try the mouse hybrid now. I didn’t realize it existed. Thanks
ive been using a Sapphire shellrus one for over a year and not a single scratch on it! but the major downside because it lasts so long the oleophobic coating wears off and it fingerprints and smears easily :/
I'm having the same issue - not a single blemish but some parts have lost its coating. I'm contemplating on buying a matte film screen protector and applying it over the Shellrus glass. How about you?
I‘ve always used glass screen protectors on all my phones but I got tired of replacing them constantly since I’m clumsy with my phone. Decided to go with the Mous Hybrid glass when I picked my iPhone 14 up 7 months ago and it’s still going strong. The most impressive thing you’ll notice when installing it is how thin it is, you won’t even notice it’s there thickness wise when it’s installed. It definitely attracts scratches a little easier than glass screen protectors but the coating on it is the best I’ve ever felt. The coating has worn down a lot since installing but it’s still better than any other plastic screen protector. I have a feeling the only reason I’m gonna take this screen protector off is because of the coating wearing down or the scratches on it, not because it cracked. They also go on sale a lot on Amazon so I’m gonna pick up some more.
Great content. Question. Why would anyone carry their phone in the same pocket as their keys? Not smart. Put the phone in your back pocket. Never scratched my phone this way. I take a film screen protector over glass any day. Especially the Whitestone dome film screen protector. You use the uv light after putting it on it hardens like glass. And it fits all my cases, like Supcase unicorn beetle pro or I-Blason Armorbox or poetic spartan or otterbox defender pro. Using these cases with glass, the glass would always lift when changing from case to case.
Hey mate - given that that Ceramic Shield glass on the iPhone is very impact resistant, then would it make sense to apply a thin and light gel/plastic protector on top? Surely no need for a Flolab level protector?
@MobileReviewsEh 7:19 would love you to explain what self healing screen protectors are, how they work, if they have some for both plastic and glass and where we can find them.
What I never understood is why we care about hardness or impact? I thought the goal was to reduce the force enough as to not damage the screen. At $9 for a 3 pack, just keep on replacing them? What am I missing?
Will you be testing the Bodyguardz Apex tempered glass protector? I see it came out recently this year and it costs a whopping $80, can you make a video about it? Thanks!
You need to start ecosystem setups and review how they all work together ipad stands laptop docs etc. Would love to see you do some new types of reviews. Love your work. Keep it up
I think I speak for most people when I say we're more worried about paying for cracked phones at $200+ and less worried about scratches. Plastic is where it's at
People just need to be more careful with their stuff. Don't put in dangerous situations or in same bag/pocket as other stuff. Don't stack them on top of each other or put them face down on tables.
I actually like my Mous hybrid glass, had it on a few years now. It’s more prone to scratches, but doesn’t shatter as easily as glass. But the main thing I like about it is how thin it is. The only blemish is the edges are a little scratchy where glass can be nice and smooth.
I want to get the "Mous Ultra Resistant Hybrid Glass Screeen Protector" for my new iphone 14 pro, but the reviews on Amazon are so bad compared to the comments here. Everybody saying it's a bad fit and that it attracts dust like crazy. Anyone able to make remarks on this? Thanks in advance!
8:01 Are you saying I don’t have to replace my Mous screen protector if it has a few cracks in it? My screen is still protected? Because that would be amazing.
I feel like I've got a cursed iPhone 14 Pro - I've tried Mous Hybrid Glass and it was rainbowing (almost like it had bad adhesive), got another one from Mous support, still the same issue and even cheap glass protectors all also rainbow in the same way, even when I stuck one for an iPhone 8 on that I never had issues with. Do you have any clues as to why?
I have found the new RhinoShield 3D impact to be incredibly fragile compared to the old versions. I purchased a matte version last year and a small drop on the edge tore the screen protector and sliced it 5mm into the screen area. I have never had RhinoShield split open like this and I've used them since the year after they launched the company. I thought oh, ok, bad luck. So I ordered another one, transparent this time (matte turns out not to be my jam) and this time it didn't last a month before a car door bumped the edge of the screen and it split open like a banana again. Wish it wasn't so, they have been my go-to brand for almost a decade, but recent experience has me wondering if their is a design or chemistry problem with the new protectors.
What are your thoughts of the “Bodyguardz APEX”? And if there was one case to buy and if money wasn’t an issue what would it be? Love your videos super helpful and insightful.
I still have a plastic screen protector on my XS Max and I have dropped the phone so often that drop protection is all I really care about. The trick for me was to go into the Apple store and have Apple install it. Heck, better them than me.
So I get literally 9 minutes into the vid, literally just before the conclusion, before I notice the full title of the video... but I'm only interested in GLASS protectors, and those 10 minutes just re-iterated why IMO. Doh!
I don't care about scratches on the protector, I only care that my phone doesn't crack or scratch. So does (cheap) plastic offer better or worse protection than (cheap) glass ones?? Honestly the argument that you could keep using a cracked glass screen protector with a pieceo of tape over, but not a plastic one that starts peeling of on the edge - is quite silly to me 😅Surely you'd replace it either way. And why are we only starting at $40? I'm not paying $40 for a piece of plastic or glass lol
I never thought I’d see screen protector bros, and yet, here we are. Application tools matter to MOST people who don’t have surgically-still hands, especially for the disabled community. So maybe, just test your own products and stop crying about someone doing a service for everyone else?
5:25. That was me when I used to buy extremely cheap glass protectors from Ali express that I would replace every couple of months. According to Amazon, I bought a sparrin glass protector in January of last year and I still haven't swapped it out. I would've been on my 4th cheap screen protector due to chipping and whatnot but not with something that costs a bit more.
They had a breakup. She was a hot friend from crossfit class he got to help with videos even though he's married with a kid. Things got strange when he rented a separate house away from the wife so he could do late night videos alone with Val and get her drunk, do whatever. She moved to Ecuador with her kids, has a new boyfriend and sings in a band now.
@@2allanator I think the videos are better without her. Though the content just isn't very good anymore. It's the same old brands he's been recommending for years and without a whole lot of testing.
Can you stop just saying iPhone every time you reference any generic phone. The iPhone is far from the only mobile device you'd want a screen protector for.
A lot of the screen protectors Aaron shows in the video are IPhone exclusive, and he exclusively reviews cases Screen Protectors and accessories for iPhone’s, he had a Galaxy S7 and a S10e as as secondary devices but he reviewed very few products for them.

I think it is side light blocking
I’m a pretty big fan of Rhinoshield’s plastic screen protector I’ve used it for two different phones and had a pretty good experience overall
I haven’t used plastic screen protectors in years. I currently have a Spigen glass protector on my phone. Before that I was using a Benks Glass Warrior until I somehow got a deep scratch on it from my keys.
Love glass protectors. Best On flat screens and plastic on curved.

I remember zagg used to make a self healing screen protector , I found it interesting.
@MobileReviewsEh
7:19 would love you to explain what self healing screen protectors are, how they work, if they have some for both plastic and glass and where we can find them.
What if you use both film on the glass protector and glass protector on the phone ?
Does the screen feel any different/worse when having the mous Hybrid Glass installed?
What I never understood is why we care about hardness or impact? I thought the goal was to reduce the force enough as to not damage the screen. At $9 for a 3 pack, just keep on replacing them? What am I missing?
It seems you’re missing a screen protector :)
Achi hardness matters for scratches.

We were wondering if val prefers the plastic or glass screen, protector, let us know

Impact wise the rhino shield has always been the best but scratched so easily now I just grab a belkin
Whitestone Dome is still the best glass protector out there. You never mention it. I've used floLab and it was horrendous.
Isn’t that a pain to install and remove?
So is the hybrid glass better than actual glass?
I love the dogs tie and collar

Ever try a glass screen protector, then put a plastic film protector on top? Or plastic then a glass ontop? Which way woyld be best?

Exactly what I was looking for
Just found your channel, really enjoyed your video .
Sir protect over secreen mobile dropage which is good plastic or glass protector. Which help in more protection of mobile.
Plastic for drop protection glass for scratch protection
3:29 that's so true Amazon has really been lowering its quality for the past 5 years.
Taking away what made Amazon so great.
I need one for my Digital Camera LCD screen. With no glare. !!
The least amount of glare that’s possible. Glass.? or Film.?
Matte. Buy plastic for phone and adjust with sharp knife or scissors. You cant do it with tempered glass
What are your thoughts of the “Bodyguardz APEX”? And if there was one case to buy and if money wasn’t an issue what would it be? Love your videos super helpful and insightful.
Just bought Mous Hybrid, havent arrived yet. Will see )))
thank you thins is exactly what ive been waiting for
Anything for samsung?
Put liquid screen protector over plastic screen protector, and it helps to make it smoother and a little better scratch resistant
You can buy 3D impacts with the install frame these days.
Thank you for the video
I still have a plastic screen protector on my XS Max and I have dropped the phone so often that drop protection is all I really care about. The trick for me was to go into the Apple store and have Apple install it. Heck, better them than me.
Does it cost money ?
@@msfn-yg4iw Depends on the quality. $20 to $40 for the screen protector. No charge for the installation.

Where is the full iPhone 14 screen protector comparison video?
That dog 🐶 is so confused on who his human is talking to
I’m not worried about scratching my screen so much as finger prints. What is the best smudge proof screen protector?
X ONE
not the dawg fighting for his life to stay awake
The mous is going strong after 2.5 years
watching your videos, I really feel bad about that dog
Glass likes to slide off the couch. iPhone face down with glass beware ‼️😄
never paid more than half a dollar for a glass protector
Cool
I wish you'd stop simping for installation tools and focus on the product quality itself
I never use the installation tools. Free hand all day.
