    When the next Note 7 phone catches fire and damages something it will be interesting to see who is to blame for the damages. I would not like to be that person.

    Zagg glass screen S7 edge

    I have the Zagg glass screen on my S7 edge and love it. It has not peeled or hinted of lifting. I use a case by Incipio and the two meet exactly at all the edges so there is no overlap and no gap.

If you treat your cell badly like sitting on it with the chance of stressing the case, dropping it...
