BELKIN UltraGlass SPS screen protector: Chipping, crumbling & bubbling. Oh my!
When I purchased an iPhone 16 Plus, I also got the BELKIN UltraGlass SPS screen protector (Part # HR272ZM/A) for $39.95 at my local Apple Store on 11/25/24. The Apple sales associate who helped me recommended I purchase this screen saver, and it was professionally installed on my phone at the time of purchase. Ten months later, it’s chipping, crumbling and bubbling on all four corners of the screen. Despite careful handling, I’m watching it disintegrate before my very eyes. I know the type of case you choose to protect a cell phone is equally important. That’s why I bought the Apple iPhone 16 Plus Silicone Case. Before writing this review, I did an online search and found many similar complaints about this BELKIN screen protector that cite: 1) Edge durability and compatibility with certain iPhone 16 models and cases; and 2) Similar complaints from people who bought this screen saver and report similar deterioration. It’s supposed to have a lifetime guarantee. I contacted BELKIN through their website and I’m waiting for an answer. I am so disappointed. Cell phones and the essential accessories you need to buy with a new phone, such as a screen protector, are not cheap. As customers we have every right to expect our purchase doesn’t start to break down two weeks or 10 months after we buy it.
