The Best iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max Screen Protectors

iPhone XS Everything in 54 seconds ad

Pre-ordered the iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max? Or plan on getting your hands on either of them during launch day? Well, to go along with the device, you must also purchase a screen protector to protect the beautiful OLED panels. This is because irrespective of what Apple says, the iPhone XS and XS Max screen are susceptible to scratches. 

Apple does claim the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max use an even more durable glass than the iPhone X. However, the company made similar claims with the iPhone X last year and that did not stop its screen from picking up scratches. In fact, if anything, most people found out the hard way that their iPhone X display was prone to picking up scratches easily than previous iPhones.

Nonetheless, if you are not already, you should consider buying a screen protector for your iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max. You definitely don’t want their beautiful cover glass to be scratched up in just a few weeks. To help make this decision easier, we have collated a list of the best screen protectors for the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max.

Best iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max Screen Protectors

Before you go through the list below, there are two things you need to know. First, I have organized the below list from the cheapest to the most expensive screen protectors that you can find for the iPhone XS series. This is in no way indicative of their quality though. Secondly, save yourself the trouble and avoid using a plastic screen protector as it would simply ruin the experience of the OLED displays of the new iPhones.

Also, remember that all the screen protectors below will not offer edge-to-edge protection due to the iPhone XS series coming with a curved cover glass.

Totallee Screen Protector

Totalle iPhone XS Screen Protector

Totallee offers a fuss-free tempered screen protector for the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. It does not oversell its tempered screen protectors with marketing jargon and offers a 2-year warranty which is a testament to its quality. There’s also a 30-day money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the screen protector.

Spigen GLAS.tr Nano Liquid

Spigen Nano Liquid

If like me, you are not fond of screen protectors since they take away from the experience of enjoying the beautiful display, you might want to give Spigen’s Nano Liquid a try. This is not a screen protector per se. It simply adds an invisible layer of nano-hydrophobic coating to your iPhone XS or XS Max’s display to help improve its durability.

While the Spigen GLAS.tr Nano liquid is good enough to protect the iPhone XS display from minor scratches and scuffs, do not expect it to offer any kind of protection against dings and drops.

Belin ScreenForce TemperedCurve Screen Protector

Belkin iPhone XS Screen Protector

If you really want a curved edge-to-edge screen protector for your iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max, Belkin has you covered. The ScreenForce tempered screen protector from the company offers edge-to-edge protection, something that is very rare among iPhone XS screen protectors. Belkin says it has manufactured the tempered glass from premium Japanese glass and tested it extensively to ensure the sharpness, brightness, and clarity of the display are not affected in any way.

To ensure the screen protector can be easily applied, Belkin also bundles an easy align tray in the package. And then it also has a lifetime warranty against any manufacturing defects.

An iPhone XS Max compatible variant of the screen protector is not yet listed for sale.

Google Reportedly Paying Apple $9 Billion to Remain Default iOS Search Option

Image
It’s widely known that Google pays Apple a certain amount of money on a semi-regular basis to make sure that it remains the default search engine option on iOS devices. It has been said in the past that iOS devices equal about 50 percent of Google’s search revenue on mobile devices, so it’s imperative to the company to keep that spot on Apple’s devices. Before the end of 2017 it was reported that Apple was getting upwards of $3 billion from Google to secure that spot. But now, more than a year later from that report, it sounds like the company may be paying a lot more to Apple. Business Insider is reporting information shared by analyst Rod Hall that states Google is now paying $9 billion this year to retain its default situation on iOS devices. What’s more, Hall actually thinks that number will increase by next year, and Google could be paying Apple for those default rights to the tune of $12 billion. Hall also echoes those earlier reports, saying ““Apple is one of the biggest chann

How to Get iPhone XS Depth Effect Control On iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone 7 Plus

The iPhone XS and iPhone XR have a brand new feature. After you click a Portrait Mode photo, you can go into the Edit menu and change the intensity of the bokeh. Basically, you can change the background blur (make it softer or more pronounced) after you’ve already clicked the photo. Apple is touting this as one of the best new features in iPhone XS . But you can get it on iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus and even the iPhone 7 Plus using a third party app. The new depth effect sensor in iPhone XS blurs photos different parts of the background at a different rate. So the effect you get is similar to that on DSLR. This is not the same as what phones like Pixel 2 do. Since the app in question requires depth data to work, it will not work on iPhones with a single camera at the rear like the iPhone 6, iPhone 7, or the iPhone 8. How to Edit Background Blur in Photos on iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone 7 Plus The app in question is called Focos and we’re big fans of the app. The app made it to our b

Facebook Uses Your 2FA Phone Number for Targeted Advertising

Image
Being stalked from one website to another by persistent advertising is a real issue, but some companies, like Apple, have made strides to try and reduce its impact . But targeted advertising isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, especially if Facebook has any say in the matter. The company has recently confirmed that it does indeed go to some pretty great lengths to provide information to advertisers, with this latest effort definitely one of the social networking giant’s worst. A couple of days ago, Gizmodo ran a piece that outlined how Facebook uses the phone number some users added to take advantage of two factor authentication as a way to target those same individuals with ads. This is an extension of how Facebook already handles phone numbers saved to the platform’s profiles. How it works normally is if you add your phone number to your Facebook profile, and then add your phone number to some online retailer’s online presence, those two sources can match and be used to target advert
