Reddit mentions of Orzly Google Pixel Screen Protector, 2.5D Pro-Fit Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Google Pixel Phone (5 inch Model - 2016) - Transparent with Charcoal Black Rim

Make sure any protector you get says it's 2.5D glass, this is the one I use and it doesn't do that.

Full Screen Protection



This offers full screen protection, haven't noticed any difference in touch sensitivity.

Cut outs are slightly bigger than needed so does make it look like it isn't sitting flush but that may be where I needed to adjust while applying but didn't

Case is very prone to finger marks which is my biggest complaint, but happy to put up with it if it offers protection

My pixel is still processing so i can't tell you how it feels yet.

The Orzly 2.5D screen protector is on sale on Amazon right now for $7.99 for the Pixel and Pixel XL

Orzly do one that covers the 2.5D edge, I was looking for one too and had bought a pixel case from them and stumbled upon the screen later so haven't received it yet:

Sorry I'm travelling for a while so I didnt get to do it yet (my phone looks hideous in this transition phase, living with a terrible screen protector) I did find some good screen protectors that are easy to apply and have as much coverage as possible without sacrificing usage.

These 2 should be good to try it out on:

These 2 are good but theres some sacrifice involved, the first one creates a layer in between your finger and the touch screen which would look ugly and MIGHT affect responsiveness to touches, the second one involves a tricky way of applying (waiting 24 hours or something) and is more expensive as well.

I'm not sure where to begin to be quite honest with you, I was going to get the one with the black bits on the bezel but now I'm unsure, should I manage to do it I'll post again here and maybe even make a separate post about it, but for now this is all I know, I think that there are ways to get this done easier soon like companies are making full screen Tempered Glass protectors for the Pixel and IntelliGlass might have done a good job but it doesnt look like the problem has been fully solved.

If you have any updates though let us all know! :)

ORLZY tempered glass!

It took a couple minutes to apply correctly, but it comes with some tools like a sticker that is used to remove dust beforehand. I love mine and plan to leave it on for the foreseeable future, but it's worth noting that some people find the following problematic:

• there's a grid of dots that can be seen in certain light or using Daydream VR. I think this props the protector up over the screen

• there's a slight rainbow haze from a certain light

For me those are very minor, and I'm glad that my Pixel has a more black look, especially for watching videos I find it more immersive. The dot issue might be more noticeable if you use a XL in VR mode though.

I had the Orzly:

Pros: Fantastic fit, and edge to edge cover
Cons: Seemed to be a finger print magnet. The bezel colour was black rather than dark grey

Edit: I actually remembered it did get weird rainbow effect under certain lighting

For full coverage, the one I've heard the most good things about is the Intelliarmor Intelliglass Pro screen protector. You can find that one on www.intelliarmor.com.

Edit: Disregard. I am so sorry, thought they had the IG Pro for the Pixel, but it appears to only be for the Pixel XL. In that case, the only one with full coverage that isn't absolutely dismal is the Google Pixel Screen Protector, Orzly 2.5D Pro-Fit Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Google Pixel Phone (5 inch model - 2016) - Transparent with CHARCOAL BLACK Rim

Have you tried the Orzly screen protectors?

I've used them when I had my 1+1 and it has saved me from 2 drops. I have the Rhinoshield one right now on my Pixel and it does bother me that there's a mm space on both ends of the screen.

It's hard for manufacturers to make good tgsps without that halo'd edge because the glass itself on the pixel is curved on the edges. The only, from what I've seen so far, manufacturer that makes one that covers the whole screen is Orzly.
