    Eyes strain also increases drastically because the distance between each eye gives each eye a slightly different image due to the nature of a privacy screen protector. It gives a cross eyed effect for some

      I don't quite see how that could be. If you look at your phone straight, I mean holding it just in front of your face without any vertical tilt, both of your eyes are looking at the screen at EXACTLY the same angle, only from two different sides. If the privacy protector had a different dimming level depending on from which side you look at the screen, then yes, what you claim could make sense. Otherwise I don't think it does.

    • @slump45
      @slump45 3 місяці тому

      @@arturl4019 the privacy screen protector DOES give a slightly different dimming level at different angles, it’s a gradual dimming effect, the distance between each reveals this when holding your phone vertically. Since most privacy screen protectors don’t work when holding your phone landscape style, this doesn’t happen when you have it turned landscape style.

    • @arturl4019
      @arturl4019 3 місяці тому

      @@slump45 I think either you didn't get my point or I didn't get yours. I'm not denying the grade of dimming depends on the angle you look at your phone at. But in the normal situation, when you look at your phone straight, I mean not from any particular side or angle, each of your eyes looks at the screen exactly at the same angle (just the opposite sides), thus there's no difference in the level of dimming for either of the eyes. Same when you hold your phone horizontallly, doesn't matter. That would only be different if you looked at your phone from one side, like for example showing it to someone next to you while you're looking at your phone at the same time. In such case, indeed, each of your eyes would perceive a different level of dimming. But not when you look straight at it.

    Love that the tests are so thorough. I personally love to use privacy screen protectors over the regular ones so this is a very informative video! It’d be great to see Otterbox and ESR in the mix for the future though, and maybe some ‘4 way’ or ‘360 degree’ ones.

    @arturl4019 3 місяці тому +1

    I do appreciate all the work you did making this comparison video, but I wish you actually showed the viewing angles for each protector, so that we could have a better idea how this works in practice. You also refer to viewing angles like "82 degrees" or around that. What I've seen on some manufacturers advertising is referring to viewing angels like 28 degrees more or less, which tells you at what angle (degree) the screen gets dimmed when viewing it from the side. I think this gives a bit of a better understanding of the privacy capability than saying that the viewing angle is 82 degrees from side to side. But of course, it depends how you look at it. The screen protector I bought and installed on my phone was advertised as "28 degrees (dimming)", and that's the angle when the view is supposed to get blocked when looking at the screen from either side. But in reality, the screen only starts dimming when viewing at 45 degrees going fully dim around 50-55. And even then the screen content are not completely invisible, as you noticed yourself. You can still see "something," especially in a dark environment, but not in daylight though. That's probably still good enough for most users. For me personally, the biggest downside of having a privacy screen protector on your phone is the loss of brightness which you need to increase occasionally, and also the tint of colour the protector adds to your display. It kind of makes the colours look somewhat warmer and less vibrant. But it's either you take it or you leave it if you care about the privacy feature.

    Your final points system is a little confunsing with the abbreviations and when you say out of 15 is that total or individual number. So 1 is good and 15 is bad per. Why don't you have a total overall score. I had to go back write down all the categorys to decififer abbreviations then add up total scores then analyze my self which features are most important to me. You explained everything very well, but first time viewing channel so your final rating system took some effort to understand especially with the 1 being tied. Meaning if its cheaper which elevated it. I wanted to know where its weaknesses were as to why it wasn't just # off price alone. As a you tube consumer I just want to say don't feel pressure to make your content short as possible. To me the information just seems rushed, impersonal ,often gimicie and kind of hallow. Its fast food content. Personally when searching on a topic of interest I almost always pick the one with the longest run time because I want to sit down consume, get the most digestable, relatable information and experience. You obviously put a lot of work into this don't feel like you have to put it all in a happy meal for people to consume the content. I am probably going to watch 2 more videos on the same thing. You did what appears to be a good job but it also feels like getting content from a crack head it sounds correct but then again don't trust it. ( metaphorical not literally)

      Spigen doesn’t affect touch sensitivity at all. I recently got a new phone and my carrier had offered me a screen protector that I could get an unlimited supply of and I was like cool why not? I won’t have to buy one. Which backfired, they gave me a Zagg SP which retails for about $60 ; problem is it very rarely recognized my touches, so I ended up buying one anyways to replace the one I was given. I’ve been using Spigen for years. Their cases and screen protectors. And honestly, this is not a plug, they are my favorites and not as expensive. $20 gets you the whole kit and it actually works.
