Zagg Glass from AT&T - insane halo

[sfla99]

Hi all,

Song just got my S7, apparently Best Buy is changing it up this year and allowing early pick up, I left the store and went down the street to a corporate ATT where I was able to get a Zagg glass.

Yikes the halo is insane! Maybe the worst I have ever seen, I assume the S7 glass has a shall arc that is not totally obvious.here is a pic.

You might be able to press down some or all of the halo. I was able to do it on my note 5.


See my thread here for some tips

I have put on dozens of these for every flagship last year and this one is different haha.

It may work out a little but it's never going to be flawless. I'm the type that will tear it off and buy another if it's not perfect, but this will not lay flat.

I have to admit, I expected better from Zagg.

Yes extreme halo. I picked one up today then exchanged it and it was the same. Super super bad.

That doesn't look good at all, it's making me not want to put one on

I thought I read somewhere that the Zagg protector for the S7 wasn't even out yet? This is the first I've heard of issues with Zagg. I used 3 different glass screen protectors from Verizon for my S6 and each one had the halo.

I'm having the same issue on my s6. I don't even notice it with the case on

the screen protectors i bought were Supershieldz ballistic glass.

we shall see tomorrow how they fit

 

[sfla99]

Yes this is a brand new oroduct6, sales guy had to go into the bike to get one as they are not yet on the floor.

Yuck!

I just picked up my S7 this morning from UPS. And I just installed the Zagg Glass for S7 and have the same halo. I've always been a Zagg fan, but this is ridiculous. What did you exchange your Zagg for, and is it any better? I might just go without a screen protector if there isn't a solution for this halo. Please.. any suggestions from anyone?

 

[sfla99]

I didn't, I threw away the box and didn't even think of exchanging it, do they even take exchanges on items like this once installed?

I just chatted with Zagg support. Zagg said halo is necessary because of the design of the phone. they offered free shipping on a replacement and the HDX might be better since it is more flexible. I said no thanks and I will return it for a refund. I got mine from Best Buy, so I will be taking it back for the 14-return policy, I hope Guess I will go with a naked screen in a spigen case.

I'm assuming its just the first run. This happened on my G4 with the first batch but the manufacturer sent a corrected replacement.

There's a curved edge on the sides of the screen. Mine has the same issue

 

[DizWhiz]

I may go no protector with my cheap spigen tpu case and pray I don't do anything stupid with it. I really hate the typical film ones that feel terrible.

Well this isnt' about the S7 but it is about a Zagg glass protector. My husband has a S5 and uses an Otterbox Defender that came with a plastic screen cover. He finally to change out the screen protector for a glass one (on my advice). His was totally scratched. BB salesperson said it was doable and to just remove the old one from the plastic surround (it was glued in) and "pop" in the glass one. Sounds easy enough. Didn't sound like I needed a BB geek guy to do it. Wellll, I was surprised when I pulled out the glass protector to see that it was adhesive on one side. Salesperson kinda threw me when she said "pop it in". I (wrongly) assumed it would go back into the slots of the plastic surround (the case comes in like 3 or 4 parts). He's got round halos under the glass that won't press out And a couple of black specks too. I feel bad even tho the halos don't show up unless the screen is off. $40 wasted!

anyone have any issues with screen sensitivity in the areas where there is the halo from the zagg? the halo means that the screen protector is lifted a bit from the screen, right?

Zagg should be embarrassed about this.
