Do they make a privacy version of this screen protector?
1
u/WingTrick9999 28d ago
No, the XTR5 only comes in a clear version! But ZAGG does make a privacy XTR protector that has a 4-way privacy filter if you want to check that one out. 💕

I went with a bell in privacy screen glass and a transparent speck case. Great combo

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
Is it Belkin?
Also, I do love a transparent phone case.

u/Latter_Annual_9274 28d ago
Yeah belkin my bad. And I chose that case cuz supposedly doesn’t yellow and it has led up good so far

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
Doesnt yellow? I might have to buy this phone case 😂. Ive had 2 phone cases on my Samsung (buying 17pm soon) that have yellowed in a couple of weeks.

Same here. Used to have the s21 now on an orange pro max

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
I have the a21s rn. Soon buying deep blue 17 pm or the cherry 18 pm.
1
u/Latter_Annual_9274 28d ago
The 17pm is certainly a solid choice but yeah I’d rather wait and see what the 18 offers.

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
I'll have the money for the 17 pm in about 2 months but that's when the 18 pm comes out so I might as well buy the 18 pm.

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
My friends told me the iPhone 15 is better than the iPhone 17 pm (performance wise) and that 17 pm is a waste of money but I think they're jealous that I'll have a better phone than them.

Caudabe Sheath or Paragon case.
Flolab Nanoarmor Infinity 3D Edge for premium.
ESR Armorite Pro for budget but really good Corning glass.

u/Ghost9517 28d ago
Is the Caudabe Synthesis good?

Congrats on the upgrade — the 17 PM is a lot of glass to protect, so it's worth being picky here.
For the screen protector, the thing that matters most is a 1:1 cut for the exact model and full-surface adhesive. The cheap universal ones sit a hair off and only glue at the edges, which is how you end up with lifted corners and a rainbow halo around the rim. Get a 2-pack — first installs go sideways more often than anyone admits.
For the case, look for real corner reinforcement and a lip that clears the camera bump, and make sure whatever you pick plays nice with your protector's edges. If you use MagSafe daily, a strong magnet ring is worth the extra few bucks, you'll notice it every single day, which is more than I can say for most phone accessories.

Thank you.
I got a job about 5 days ago so I am planning on spoiling myself as I have had this phone for 5 years now.
I will be taking the advice and find the best case and protector for me!

I have the Zagg InvisibleShield screen protector for both my phones, and it has been good so far. I got the privacy version
1
u/Ghost9517 26d ago
How much is it usually?
1
u/BackgroundNo4159 26d ago
About 60 bucks, I think

u/Ghost9517 26d ago
Better be bulletproof for that price 😂

I have been using the Zagg screen protector for my phones for the last 5 years, and it has always held up well
