Tempered Glass Screen Protector

Works fine EXCEPT for not adhering at the extreme top edge. I have pre-ordered the new Ringke one due out next week as it's supposedly designed to accommodate the curved top and bottom on the V20.

Let me know how much of a hassle they give you in the warranty, so I know what to expect when I have a problem. My favorite company for warranties was iCarez. They would ask for a picture and send the replacement at no cost what so ever. I probably got 3 or 4 warranty screen covers from them without issue. Unfortunately they don't make one for this phone.

Yeah and I asked the people at Verizon if they would take it back and they said no. I wonder if it's possible to remove it and put it back on? I would prob make a mess of it though

Almost all cases, the phone landed on the ground (direct onto the face), once the screen protector cracked, and the whole screen including the actual display failed when the phone was dropped.
Why? Let us see, how the screen protector protect the phone.
A glass protector will spread the impact force onto a much larger area. This act can protect the top glass of the screen protect itself. And both the top glass on your screen and the screen protector have a thin layer of "glue", which acts like a shock absorber. So unless an impact goes deep enough so the pressure on the actual screen is too much only the protector should fail, once the protector failed, the screen would crack directly.
The other cases, the phone landed on the ground (direct onto the edge of screen protector). In these case, the glass protector failed easily under a little gentle shock.
So when we saw a glass protector cracked under a gentle drop without screen shattering, which did not mean glass protector protected our phone well. It mean the truth that glass protector is fragile, it is too easy to crack.
Why is it so easy to crack when shocked on the edge of a glass protector?
For it can’t spread the impact force onto a much larger area. So it just crack on the edge. Then the whole protector will crack after the edge cracking.
That’s the reason for glass screen protectors need to be replaced every time you drop the phone.

I am too. When I finally took it off (couldn't stand to even look at it) I noticed it was all bendy like it was plastic not glass at all. I've got a super one now from pure.genius that has NO halo and is super clear and looks great. Very happy with it

I take that back. After reviewing the pics, they seem to have designed for the curves. Ordered. I'll report back on Sunday when it arrives.
People are reviewing every protector as bad because of the curve. Almost everyone is upset the LG logo isn't covered. I doubt you are going to find many that will attempt the curve. Then they install either the top or bottom too high or too low and it peels or gets rainbow because it hangs over the curve As someone stated in another thread, most of these need installed with the screen on so you can see exactly how to align these. I suspect that for the best fit a wet system film protector will be the way to go.
Probably true. I think I'll give it a try, and if this one doesn't work, I'll do a wet system. Have had good luck with Yootech on curved Samsungs.
Can you give any more info? Where did you buy it? Do you have any pictures? How much of the screen is covered? Thanks!
So are you happy with the way it turned out? The T-Mobile by my house has them in stock.

Absolutely, it seems perfect. The only way it could be better is if it was free.

Just ordered this one. https://www.google.com/aclk?sa=l&ai...ahUKEwjrgdifopLQAhXEKyYKHULsBB0Qwg8ILA&adurl=
I figured for $12.99, it's worth a try. It is supposed to fit the entire screen, and it's curved. Has to be better than the crappy Bodygardz one I have now, lol.
