So, I'm sending my phone in as a manufacture defect and since I won't be able to reuse my old screen protector (Tech21), I'm either thinking about buying that one again since it's a fantastic screen protector, in my opinion, or should I go ahead and trust Phantom Glass? Linus has some pretty great sentiment but I want to hear your guys opinions on it and if you have one.

 

I have a Galaxy Note 4.

 

I also noticed that the Phantom Glass protector is .2mm while the Tech21 is 0.3mm, not too sure if that extra layer of whatever they class their bulletshield is better or not with just 0.1mm thinkness more with polycarbonate is worth it.

 

Thanks

If you like the Tech21 one, there's little point in switching.

Very compelling with the Austin's Nipple verifying it, I may as well stick with the Tech21 one but if anyone has experienced a joy like no other with the Phantom Glass one as well, it may be something I'd take a chance for but until then, I suppose the Tech21 is fine.

Phantom is basically Gorilla Glass, made to fit your screen over the Gorilla Glass already on your phone.  If they are using GG4 then it is by far the best ones to get.  Corning are miles ahead of everyone else, just like DuPont was miles ahead of everyone in polymers and plastics.

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

When there is no danger of failure there is no pleasure in success.
