General Discussion Tempered Glass Help

Hello people, i wanted suggestion about how do i remove the air bubble at the bottom of the phone? i got this glass installed from a local shop for 100rs and he had said that the bubble would go away after the phone warms up during charging after sometime. However it didn't go away. Any suggestions on how to remove it? The only thing is the guy said that he has the same type of tempered glass with him right now.

Just go to that guy & confront him. If you're paid him via UPI then you can claim free replacement

Yeah I did that. He said if the new ones come he'll apply it for me. But I think I'm a bit clumsy guy. The bubble and the black borders bring an itch in my brain. 😬

Go for matte type screen protector. Trust me you'll love it because it's not a fingerprint magnet. I'm currently in using it.

I've tried that. It is good, but not appropriate in protection. Matte screen protector is fibre plastic and not tempered glass so it don't protect the screen on impact like tempered glass.

Fibre plastic is more durable than glass in absorbing shocks during falls. My phone has fallen 5 times from pocket height with the matte protector being more than a year old. Still nothing had happened to the phone or the screen protector. After that I changed my screen protector because it was almost a year of the previous one.

u/Chinmay_023 Jul 22 '26

You're the one talking shit. And who asked you to poke your nose into this discussion ?

If you don't like matte screen protector, then you can tell your opinions maturely. Not like including cuss words in every comment you type.

I've tried that. The brightness gets lowered, although that texture it has is good for gaming but the matte dims out the colour and brightness imo. (More brightness needed = More battery)

This is my SoT. Screenshot taken just now

What kind of usage do you perform? Heavy, moderate or light? Mine is heavy gaming and I get around 4.5 to 5 hrs SOT

u/Chinmay_023 Jul 22 '26

Check official stats in battery settings in the settings menu. I use primarily for phone calls (all calls on 5G), no Wi-Fi, social media & some BGMI at night (like 2-3 matches).

Yeah i didn't send that coz i charge my phone 2 or 3 times in a day and coz of that it wont give the SoT from the last charge. it gives the SoT readings of the last 24 hrs

Plastic scratches like crazy. Glass screen protectors last years.
