If you’ve seen my Apple Watch Series 7 review, you will know that I am very happy with my Series 7, in terms of design and features, it truly represents the best of the best when it comes to the smartwatch industry. However. There is one problem and that has to do with the durability of the display. After only a few months of use my series 7 has already started to show hairline scratches on the display, something I never had on my previous Apple Watches. Needless to say, this is not good, so today I want to find a solution! There are many ways to protect your Apple Watch display. After looking around online, I narrowed it down to 4 main screen protection options and ordered the best rated product in each category. 360 degree plastic clear case. Case with glass screen protector. Glass screen protector. And a plastic TPU screen protector. So after testing all 4, what’s the verdict? First, I would not go for the transparent case style we looked at first. It easily scratches, worsens the display’s clarity and touch sensitivity. It also just doesn’t do justice to the design of your $400 Apple Watch. I also would not go for the plastic screen protector we looked at last. While it doesn’t effect touch sensitivity, it is very thin. So thin that I feel this may peel over time and too scratches very easily. That bring us to the last two, these both are options I can recommend you try. The hard case with screen protector is overall the best option, especially for protection, not getting a single scratch from my keys and the glass is clear and feels good to the touch. Yes it is not the most minimalist design, it is still low profile. Finally there is the glass screen protector, this option is best if you want a minimalistic solution and want to retain and show the design of your apple watch. It’s precise form means it curves to the watches display and it’s more rigid design and tough adhesion means this is less likely to fall off, thought for a product that is marketed as being made of glass, I do wish it provided better levels of scratch protection. So that gives you my thoughts on each of the 4 main screen protection options for the apple watch. Which will I use? For the time being I will use the glass screen protector but am keep the case with built-in screen protector for days where I fly!

Use LITO Brand for no lines at the centre🔥🔥
FYI there's a scammer messaging commentors Dino_Schuddeboom
The LK screen protector actually heals the scratches over a few days. That line across the center also mostly goes away. It’s not terribly easy to peel off, I had the same one on for five months. It had one small corner that was slightly starting to lift. But you do get six. It’s really not a bad choice.
Hi Tina, thanks for sharing your experience.
Thanks for this experience-based review! I don’t see the point in this video speculating on its durability without testing it for any period of time.
I agree! I am using this screen protector. The line across the center easily smoothed out with the tool provided. I like that they give you six per package as you can easily apply a new one when needed. I don't want to cover up the "starshine" finish on my watch with the cases. I'll stick with the LK.
I love these screen protectors , have tried several and these are the clear winner for me !
It protects from scratches only or from fall protection too?
The first option is the plastic case I always end up going back to. It offers all around protection which is extremely important to me. All the other options don’t offer this. Yes, the dots are annoying but it’s not noticeable in most lighting. Yes, it scratches badly but that’s fine, i can handle a scratched case over a scratched Apple Watch. 2nd option, i have noticed that they always pop off when it gets snagged on things so I didn’t feel confident in using these, especially at work (I’m a parcel sorter). 3rd option, the glue adhesive didn’t even last one week. 4th option, the sticker one was cool concept but mine began to show signs of lifting after 2 weeks of everyday use. Interesting that we have polar opposite opinions, it goes to show that the case/screen protector is subjective and dependent on the Apple Watch wearer’s preferences! Great video!
Hi, thank you for sharing your detailed experience. This discussion is far from over and I soon will produce a second video with more comparisons including water tests:)
For me the UV glass was the best looking, it literally made the watch look brand new if you know what you are doing. Next to it is the hydrogel. Cases are a great option, however, they get water inside and need to be removed every time you as much as wash your hands. The touch is great and they look good, bling and all.
I have one just like the tauri, looks great indeed and ads good protection but water gets stuck inside the case every time I wash my hands so u have to remove the case frequently to clean it . For me the best option has been the lk screen protector plus a case from spigen rugged armor .
It's worth noting that the first 2 options, the ones that are more like a "case", are not waterproof (I had a similar one). I do a lot of running with my Apple Watch 3, and was having to take the case off after every run to clear the water out. Plus I had to take it off other times if sweat or water got under the case (which was often). Out of these options, I like option 3, the one with the black edge around it. It can catch on things and peel off/up, but other than that I think it's the winner.
Hi Josh, thanks for sharing your experience as a runner. I plan a second round of testing, including the water test:). So far no perfect solution, but there are some decent options out there
The hard case with a screen protector is the best one for me.. id rather cover the entire watch than to see scratches, dings and dents all over. It doesnt matter if the color of the watch cant be seen, whats important is the overall protection.. you gave me the answer to my quest for a screen protector, Dion!! Huge thanks to you!!! You deserve more subs and likes!! Sharing this content now 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for your support!
The one time I used a screen protector on my Apple Watch was an expensive one sold at the Apple Store. It was useless to protect my screen when I accidentally bumped against a handrail. It actually made my watch look worse than it was. After I removed the screen protector, my watch looked better. I then bought a nice, expensive, thick bumper for it at Best Buy.
Recently, I took the bumper off to clean my watch, and was surprised to find the bumper had completely nicked the entire surface all around my aluminum Series 5 watch. The entire surround looks awful, full of gashes.
When I receive the Series 7 this weekend, I’ll make sure to steer clear of any screen protectors or bumpers.
Hi, thanks for sharing your experience, even if it is that negative. Sorry to hear. I will still continue my quest for the ideal screen protector, but although some models are promising the ideal one has yet to be found (or made)
I had the same experience with my apple watch 3. The cases also accumulate dirt that scratches it from inside
Saw this comment too late. Had been using a fully covered case on my Apple Watch 7. When I was switching out my case for a new one, I saw how scuffed up my less than 1 year old Apple Watch 7 was 😢
I bought one with the case, similar to the second you tested, but from another brand (Misxi or something). I loved it and I'm glad this model was listed among the best here.
Hi Andre, good to hear!
I’m already using a glass screen protector as you said I also don’t prefer my apple watch fully covered it’s gonna make it more bigger with a built in case same with that plastic case and that glass screen protector seems fine to me and watching your suggestion I’m really at relief now for choosing the glass screen protector over those plastic case ❤️keep up the good work ❤️❤️
Hi Tabassum, glad it is working out for you
Installed the Whitestone Dome screen protector on my series 7 and it is great. No fuss install and 100% functionality.
I use the one from Spigen almost same as the one from LK but it only comes in 3s. I think yes, it’s not the most durable out of all the choices but it’s the most clean-looking. It can be easily changed too that’s why they give extra ones😁
Hi Dominique, thanks for sharing your experience
@@DionMedia do you know how to walkie talkie on your apple watch
I bought a Series 7 yesterday at the start of Prime Day. I ended up getting a Misxi hard shell case that has tempered glass. I'm not thrilled with it. It does interfere with the touch controls at certain spots. The only reason why I'm bothering with a protector is because my Series 4 has a nasty scratch on it from working in a warehouse. I just ordered the one you recommended. Hopefully I'll have better luck with it.
Hi, I hope so for you as well, although still the perfect screen protector is not out there yet:(
@@DionMedia I ended up switching to a TPU screen protector and a Spigen bumper. I also have a Pitaka bumper so it’ll match with their watch band. I’m liking this set up more than those tempered glass cases.
The first screen protector seems to be easier to fit when you have the strap attached on one side. I hate the screen protectors but starting to notice chips on the actual casing now.
Sorry to hear this. And yes, that is why we can not avoid them. Thanks for sharing your experience
Nice job! Would have liked to see you test a glass screen protector that was actually glass. That seems like it would have combined the best of all worlds.
Hi, I am working on an updated version of that video so stay tuned :)
Thanks a bunch. I've been trying to figureout what I wanted for my new watch and this is the only site that truly gave me useful advice and showed me the difference between my options. The manufacture videos really didn't give me useful information this one did.
I work two jobs, one with elbowgrease and splintered metal, the other one in an office selling wine. The Tauri does both nicely, and not worrying about the watch is a blessing.
Personally I love this one from Amazon: Misxi 2 Pack Hard PC Case with Tempered Glass Screen Protector. No affiliation, just works well for me. It is a case, not just a screen protector, but I'm fine with that.
Hi Laurie, thanks for sharing. I plan to do a second video on this topic so all tips are welcome
I ordered LK tpu screen protector from USA. Waiting for it to arrive. For me, I don't usually smack my watch on hard areas so simple scratch resistant will be enough for me
Any protection is better than no protection 👍 The TPU screen protector is a minimalistic option that also comes with several in the box!
I’ve just got the 1st full cover case in black sensitivity works fine for me the black look way better than the clear
I agreed the first clear case reduced sensitivity. I returned my clear case from different brand.
the problem with the case and screen protector in one is if you work outdoors and get sweaty, moisture will get between the screen and the screen protector and blocks the display. I have been using the LK plastic screen protector on my series 7 and only had to replace it once in the 8 months I have had the watch.
Hi Alex, thanks for sharing your experience
I’m currently using the zagg invisible shield ultra and I’m disappointed. Like you said in the video half of my protector is starting to rub off from the side it’s annoying. The black case and the glass protectors caught my attention. Thanks Dion 🙏
Hi Felix, thanks for your support and for sharing your experience. It is unfortunate that more thin screen protectors will rub off over time. I too think the case with glass screen protector will be a good option, provides better protection too! 😊
@@DionMedia thank you 🙏
I just threw my Zagg protector away; I couldn't get all the air bubbles out and one side never really adhered correctly. Waisted $29
I got the ZPIAR tempered glass screen protector off amazon and although it took quite long to put on it works very very well
Hi Osoko, good to hear!
Zpiar Glass screen protector with UV and glue adhesive is THE BEST. It is crystal clear glass that is dome shaped and you put it on using glue adhesive and using a UV light after, I’ve used multiple screen protectors films and this is the best one zero issues with sensitivity I highly recommend this product
Thanks for sharing. I will do another comparative test when the 8 is out and might include this one as well.
🤔🤔sounds like another company😏😏 think it is called Whitestone domed glass love them on my watch.
There’s a video on UA-cam of the application. My screen protector is still on and in use. ZERO touch issues
i got the #2 for my watch. replaced the strap with a gray one and the combi looks pretty good
Hi Gaurav, sounds very ok to me!
The real dealbreaker is the battery 🪫 a watch should last at least 5 days without recharge in only clock mode.
Im using one with has to be glue and cured with UV light. For me its the best for now. You have to put effort to see the bezels and its real glass. The only downside its to remove but does not seem to difficult.
Dude it's wonderful! You really show us what every piece can do. Well done, well done!
Thanks Breno, later in the year I will do a follow-up
I've tried the case with built in glass protector in the past for my series 3. After a while, I noticed that when I get my watch wet from washing my hands, the water would enter between the screen of the watch and the protector on the case, creating weird water bubbles. Wondering if this is still the case with the current technology.
Hi. thanks for sharing your experience. I had a few questions on this. I did not test this, but in my future comparison video I will do a water test as well. I guess, based on other tests that, that indeed water interferes :(
Lol I just posted this comment not knowing it was already here. Once the water seeps through touch screen no longer works since water effects touch screens since it relays on the electricity in your body to install a response.
This is happening to me rn
Same issue…I work at a hospital lots of hand washing. I just pop it off dry it and pop it back on. 😊
I don’t know if the piuella ones have been updated but I got a 2 pack of the black case they do and the touch sensitivity isn’t affected at all and the coulours are fine. The series 9 is my first ever Apple Watch I got for Christmas I’m really enjoying it so far
Thank u, this video is very useful. I just bought apple watch SE nike edition and now i know what kind of screen protectors i should use
Hi Gilang, thanks for your feedback and enjoy your watch!
The TPU screen protectors (while mine is not from LK) work the best for me. I´ve got one and the same of them for over two years on my phone and it never came off. I´m using one on my Apple Watch SE for almost a year now and it still fits perfectly, without any bubbles. It also covers that really nasty scratch on the display - from when my SE made contact with a wall - pretty well! Needless to say that one of these protectors is now on my series 7 watch from day one on.
Thanks for sharing your experience, that is how we help each other!
Thanks Dion I really liked the video I bought the the screen protector with case (second one). Helped me a lot Thanks!
Good to hear!
Using Cases since years. And shattered a lot at work. I’m a CNC mechanic and during the day my watch sometimes has a hard life. Better get a new case than get a new screen. They also come in different colors, so I can match them to my bands.
So which is your favorite?
@@Chris-Alia There is no favorite brand for the covers. I buy bundles from Amazon with the colors I like.
What about one of these glass screen protectors that glue on? I've applied one to my phone (different brand but strangely familiar supplies) and one to my watch from Zpiar (both from amazon). It did take some time to find one like what I applied to the phone.
They do leave a little of that UV glue that comes out as excess but cleans up nicely with a little effort. Definitely watch the instructional video with these.
Hi Dan, thanks for letting know!
Perfect review i am looking for comparison of these cases finally i will go for scratch free one thank you .👍
Thanks for the compliment!
8:46 you were 100% spot on here. The LK peeled off little by little, and some of the exposed adhesive would naturally get weaker, making it more likely to peel (feed back loop). this is ultimately what lead me to stop using that type of cheap screen protector, since I constantly had to change them out like every two months. additionally, it made the screen just felt like an android from like 2012. no thank you
Hi Kevin, thanks for sharing your experience. It is clear that the screen situation is not ideal yet, neither the solutions
Please what do you mean by saying "it made the screen just felt like an android from like 2012" ?
@@yassinee.3463I don’t know if it was the same for iPhones but I had androids in 2012 and the screen protectors were a rubberized plastic that had all the problems he mentioned
I have a set of screen protectors that are in that box like the orange banner box that you had. It is by a company called MISXI or something like that and it’s spelled MISXI have the clear one as well as the one with the black surround. The touch sensitivity issue is very minimal and most of the time not even noticeable and to me it’s quite clear. I don’t know about the scratch resistance though because the surround is of a tougher material.
Hi Thanks for sharing
The case protector with the glass is what I just bought. Works great 👍🏽
When using screen protector or hardcase, will it have effect when we use it for swimming? Like the water soaking in between the case and the watch
Hi Budi, you bring up a very interesting point! I have not yet gone swimming with my Apple Watch so I cannot speak to how water impacts the screen protectors. That said, if you are going to be swimming with your watch, I would lean towards using a case instead of a screen protector as I would imagine the adhesive that screen protectors use to attach will weaken when exposure to water. But thanks for bringing this up, is definitely something I will keep in mind for future test videos! 😃
Thank you! Looking forward for ur future video 😄
I using the case with black around and clear screen you show on my 7 apple and it’s amazing also I can change colors too make it what ever is nice and cheaper
Hi Gavriil, thanks for sharing your experience
I have the Piuellia hard case, which has a built in glass protector, like the Tauri one shown.
Hi thanks for sharing this info!
I use the case with built in glass screen protector. Only issue I have with it is pressing the letter 2 and number 0 on the on screen keyboard on series 7 on the second pack I bought. First one no issue, but due to nature of work I did crack both from the first pack
Hi Marcel, thanks for sharing your experience
I have the second one. It's good, but when I want to press the back button in settings for example it takes a few tries
I own a Series 5 with the stainless steel so the sapphire crystal glass. But I hate scratches so I always use screen protectors even though the durability is higher with this model. I bought the LK plastic screen protectors and find them to be the best option. They don't affect screen quality very much and aren't even noticeable. My only issue is that they tend to start bubbling or peeling off around 4-6 months of use. Hence why I think they give you a 6 pack worth of protectors. But they are not hard to change and have definitely saved my watch my scraps and scratches from everyday life.
Also used to use a case from rhinoshield. While it was protective, it looked very ugly on the watch and also affected the screen protectors on the watch. So personally don't use a case unless you are an active person.
Hi Anay, thanks for sharing your experience!
I use the hard case with screen protector on my watch and its fine. I chose it because I also want to protect the body itself and not just the screen.
The dot otters is to make it so you can touch the screen through the screen protector
very helpful thank you!
Hi Junnel, my pleasure
I’d like the black cover case for more protection, only issue is that if you don’t clean stuck water very often, it starts to peel off aluminum parts.
And regular plastic protectors, do not protect completely the Watch on round sides.
Hi Luis, it is clear that we still are not there with these screen protectors. I hope to do a new series of tests on the quest to find the ideal one
Nice work! I am using the case with glass protetion, it is a good option
Thanks Andre!
I think I would go with the Tauri screen protector
I just got the series 7 stainless steel as it has sapphire glass. the case can get micro scratches but I can live with that. but still concerned the glass could crack while I'm at work. but looking at your review I don't want any protection on it. I guess ill just have to buy an apple care plan, in case it does break to keep it looking sleek as a steel series should.
Don’t use any bug spray with DEET if using that first style case, the chemicals will ruin it.
I have problems with the case because after a workout i have moisture under the case between the screen and it’s really hard to get off..
i used otter case with no screen protection over the last type of protector shown here. I think i will try number 2 after this review great video and i will subscribe for more
Hi Jameson, first of all thank you for your comment and sub of course. In the nearer future I might do another comparison again, so stay tuned :)
it's funny that i see this video after testing all of these options except for glass (i think that it's easy to pull out). so, the main problem of silicone case for me is that water gets into it when you're washing your hands or your hand gets sweaty xD and you need to take it off and wipe it every time.. awful.. besides, i like the case with glass less, because i needed to touch a screen for several times to tap on something. the last screen protector i found the most cool, yes, of course, it wouldn't protect the watch from falling, but it lets you enjoy your watch and maybe this is more important than 100% protection.. or not)
Thanks for sharing your experience, the Screen Protector issue will continue for some time I think :(
I bought the LK [2 Pack] Case for Apple Watch 6/SE 2 44mm Built-in Tempered Glass Screen Protector that covers the watch. I love it and it hasn't had any scratches for over 3 months. I've noticed that it hasn't fogged up when I'm hot and sweaty. and the touch sensitivity is great. I would offer your subscribers to check this one out as well. 10$ for 2 cases.
A great, informative and well explained video. Well done. 👏🏼 also Ridge wallet please keep sponsoring this guy so he makes more awesome videos ! Earned my like and sub.
Hi, a bit late, but still my thanks for subbing me!
I wonder why the zagg shield is not on this list, its a good screen protector, really easy to apply, and has a life time warranty so if its damaged or comes off over time you get a free replacement just by requesting it on the site. I think its a good option but also its not mentioned any screen protector with a black border will cut off the curved bezel a bit so if you use the new watch faces you will notice the outsides a bit cut off but its not that bad to me at least.
Hi, I hope to do another round of comparisons and will look at the zagg shield as well. Thanks for your comment
The case with the glass screen protector. (The second one reviewed )looks good ,stays on well but the problem if you get any water around it, it gets in there and it gets stuck between the screen and the protector which of course looks lousy, but also interferes with functionality
it wouldn’t be too bad if it was easy to remove but it is not .
you need a tool
I carefully used a dull knife
But I would recommend thin hard plastic
Great name, by-the-way. Very good straight ahead info. I bought one of the products right after the review.
Yes, fully agree :), And thanks for your feedback
I love the LK the best mine is very clear
❤Love the smart videos you do!!! 🙂 I really Hate glass covers/protectors after almost slicing myself!! Love LKtpu!! Using them for about 9 months now. No rubbing!! None of mine have “caught” on anything!!!
Never look scratched like a screen without a protector would! Stays on for over a month before a corner may peel back a tiny bit. I do wear them until they get ugly😝 Two months? Depends. (I do not wear the watch at night, swimming or showering.)
If you work putting your hands in hot hot places- eg. a pizzeria oven - could be hard on the cover. At home, doing a lot of 400° baking for a few days i found it can affect the cover. I had been wearing the protector for a long time already - more of the top peeled away.😮 I must say tho i was moving trays around in the oven without oven mitts on- ya!!! I could still see what i needed to see on the watch until i had time to change the cover.
The hard case with screen protector is the one I use and for almost 2 years now it's perfect 👍🏻
Excellent to hear
Do you reckon you could use the Tauri one on a 44mm Apple Watch (The case only sells for 45mm) I want to buy it, but I have a 44mm Apple Watch, not 45mm. Thanks.
Hi Archie, I would not take risk. 1 mm is very little, but the 7 is differently shaped, so you can not apply the results of the 7 test with other models.
i dont really know about the tpu screen protector, i got the case and screen protector combo and i think it is great, great comparison!
I’ve been using the LK brand protectors since getting my Series 7 in November 2021. These screen protectors IMO are the best value for your money - you get 8 screen protectors, 8 alcohol wipes, 8 dust stickers, a microfibre cloth, squeegee, and anti-slip base - for less than $20.
One screen protector usually lasts me about 4 months before I need to change it out and it feels as if there’s nothing on the screen. These have saved me from multiple dings that would’ve scratched or outright gouged my screen. Simply take it off (leaves no residue) and install a new one which takes me less than 5 minutes. Actually, I just installed my last one Aug. 5, 2023 and will be ordering another box this week.
Ia few challenges to the OP’s critiques - the crease in the middle doesn’t stay, you just have to use the squeegee. The screen protector doesn’t easily and randomly peel off, and scratches on the screen protector (not your screen) is the actual point of the product - more so than maintaining apple’s aesthetic.
Thanks for sharing your experience
I wish you would have compared the Tauri with the Spigen case and their glass screen protector.
I got my Apple Watch SE 2 40mm just today, Please share the link of the best screen guard as I fear it’s screen will broke
Thanks for review!
This is exactly why I always go with the SS models. No need for a screen protector. The sapphire is well worth the extra money.
We apple people do like showing off that apple drip tho
How did you take off the tauri/smiling case? I can’t get it off at all.
Hi Alexander, sorry for not reacting. I hope by now you have managed. I remember in the testing that getting it off was very difficult indeed.
Google clearly knows what I’ve bought recently 🤣
I’m not a fan of the case with built in screen protector.
I’ve found that if you get caught in the rain or get too many splashes from washing hands etc, that I get water between the screen and protector.
The glass ones seem to do the trick if you don’t want a case. The spigen one goes almost edge to edge, and if you can splurge a little, whitestones version is totally invisible.
Personally I’ve gone with the wet application spigen TPU protector combined with their clear polycarbonate case. (I was using the ringke PC case but it caused the corners on the screen protector to lift.
Hi Noel, thanks for sharing. I will do later in the year a new comparative test. And yes, Google knows a lot (too much at times)
A test he did not perform that I am running into with the snap on case is water. Now I don’t have the same brand as his, but the design is fairly similar. It snaps on and goes over the crown and button. The issue is when you wash yiu hands water can seep through the case between the display and projection. As you know water effects touch screen making it so you will need to remove the case every now and then to wipe the water from the case and watch
Hi Rudy, I will do a second round, with some more models and including the water test.
When I had my series 3 I opened a door and my wrist hit the wall and it broke and from that day forward I’ve kept a case on my watch
Has anyone had experience with swimming (indoors in pool for exercise) with screen protection on series 7? Which one would be able to handle that? Thanks!
Good question Max. No, I have not, sorry.
Excuse me what’s the band you’re using in this video?
Are these cases good with water? I have one that only covers the edges, and whenever I swim or do high intensity workouts there is always water in it, so I like to remove it to clean it and get the water out. I was wondering if that was also possible with some of these adhesive cases?
Hi Sofia, important point. I will test this in my second round of comparisons of screen protectors.
@@DionMedia nice, will wait for that video!
I have the gel one but water gets in there when i shower/swim😢…i might get the stick on ones.
I would say my favorite is probably the second one
Hey Dion,
Heb een vraagje mijn vriendin heeft de SE 2022 40mm ze heeft de case van belkin en ook al screenprotectors geprobeerd.
elke keer met een schermbescherminng reageert de watch zo slecht. ik heb de 44mm met dezelfde case en ik heb geen problemen ermee.
heb jij soms een oplossing ?
Groeten Davey
HI Davey, leuk om in Nederlands te corresponderen. Sorry dat ik wat laat ben, maar het waren nu eenmaal de feestdagen. In mijn ervaringen reageren schermen soms slechts op de Apple Watch. Het klinkt niet erg hoopgevend, maar in de praktijk is de kwaliteit van de schermen, ook van hetzelfde merk, soms verschillend. Het ligt vrijwel zeker niet aan de Watch. Het beste is om een andere te proberen
I absolutely love tauri. I have purchased many of them. Only problem is….. moisture! Wether you take a shower with it on or you are a nurse that washes your hands 1000x a day, moisture finds it’s way inside. Yes, you could take it off and wipe it out every time but it’s tedious. Wish they made a single layer screen protector with that same material. It would be perfect! Also… I’ve noticed little rub marks in the watches paint on the sides because of this design. Not acceptable!
agree
Apologies if it’s covered on a different video, but what’s the watch strap your using there?
HI Dave, that is the dark cherry braided solo loop, beautiful, but out of production for a long time in this color. In other colors it is available, very comfortable to wear
Is there any way to remove a Apple Watch series 7 cover without breaking my nails? Once I get my cover on it’s hard to get it off and I always break my nail. It’s usually the plastic covers that are hard to take off. The silicone cover is easy. The other ones I use have the built in screen protector.
Hi Jennifer, yes that can be tricky at times. The ideal screen protector is still to be found. With some wood or plastic you might try to get the cover off (no metal of course).
Can you still put on the smart watch case even with the protective screen peel off?
Hi, good question, I do not think this is possible as particularly with the snap on case is very tight and I do not think there is additional room for the screen protector
7:12 Thats not glass bro. It is called Hydrogel. New technology for the screen protector. It can handle impact and the scratches can heal itself. you will not worry about glass breaking
Tempered glass screen protector - UK amazon link not working. any chance you could update the link as i can't find it when searching for it manually. Thank you!
Hi Tiago, thanks for letting me know. I will do it right away
Am using the hard screen protector, it somehow covers scratches on the edge of the screen and hardly noticeable the protector itself from the phone screen, its washable and doesnt affect the sensitivity when operating,
Thanks for this 😊
Doesn’t the black border of the tempered glass cover the edges of the display like when you have a watch face like Contour?
Hi, excellent question, but I have no answer as I do not have this particular screen protector anymore
I have a similar case with the black border and it does cover the edges of my series 7. I tried the transparent case and it traps sweat when I go biking and turns yellowish over time. Now, I am using a transparent case but the screen is hollowed.
Do you really need a screen protector on a series 9 watch with the sapphire glass?
Has anyone tested which of these is best for swimming?
Theres one more i saw, glass screen protector with glue and uv. Im not sure how good that is and how dangerous it can be for the screen.
I am surprised that screen, which should be anti scratch is scratch-able. Before moving to ios I used galaxy watch active 2 for more than two years and never used screen protector. I do everything possible in daily life, including several kinds of sports and I never got single scratch. I got a few scratches on the aluminum frame though. So when changed to ios ecosystem I bought apple watch s7 and I was so confident about the screen durability, trusting what was said about it and believing it should be better than old version galaxy watch. So I added only frame covers and left the screen unprotected. When I saw yours I think I unfortunately have to change it to a fully covering version.
Hi Mohamed, yes, I am afraid that fully covering it is the best option
For my series 7 I haven’t found a single screen protector that doesn’t cut off the edge of the screen.
They either aren’t available in Australia or cover the edges
Hi Ryan, hopefully they will come. One day:)
My gripe about these are the black bezels around the protector. I just want unobstructed glass protector
I hated the 1st plastic case it irritated me on my wrist. I think the 2 nd case looks good, another screen protector I got also was just like cellophane load of rubbish. Don’t bother lol . I may buy 2nd on one here
I’ll tell you this; get the tempered. I have gotten it beaten up so much but it is still doing it’s job. It only cracked by my accidentally hitting the glass against a metal doorframe.
