iPhone 6 screen protectors are a little different than you might expect: they don’t extend to the full width of the glass. That’s because the sides of the iPhone 6 are curved. That provides a really nice feeling as you swipe off the side, but it also means that screen protectors can’t adhere to the curved surface. Therefore you’ll get screen protectors that look a little too small at first glance, even though they’ve been carefully engineered to precisely fit the new iPhone models.
You can see what I mean in this image from a screen protector manufacturer:
As you can see, as well as fitting around the earpiece and home button, the screen protector only sits around the flat part of the front glass. This has a nice bonus effect of ensuring that the screen protector doesn’t interfere with your case. So to sum up – this is how these screen protectors are designed to fit, and shouldn’t be a cause for concern.
If you are particularly worried about damage to the edges of your screen, then an iPhone 6 cover or iPhone 6 Plus case could be just the ticket. A simple bumper case for the iPhone 6 will provide protection with minimal bulk, while more substantial tough cases for the iPhone 6 will provide good drop protection as well.
Whatever your preferences, we should have an iPhone 6 case to fit your needs. Have a look at the categories linked above, or let us know what you’re looking for in the comments below, on Twitter, or on Facebook.
Hmmm. Spigen managed to make a curved one for the S3 and it was *perfect*. I can only assume Spigen have a patent on that technology?
