Quick assessment of iPhone toughened stickers: Self-adhesive, rough coating or anti-peeping best used?
- Tram Ho
Using the iPhone is the most enjoyable, with no shortage of delicious – nutritious – cheap accessories, especially tempered stickers. In addition, there are often new types of stickers, such as those that come with a frame or an outer box to stick on the phone easily, no experience needed to do it at home. In addition, there are still other types of strength such as rough coating or anti-peeping, 2.5D curved or flat, different thickness, with overflow… So, which is the best one to choose? Try to find out.
Self-adhesive tempered glass
We owe our neighbor’s “magicians” a big thank you for coming up with this super convenient tempered glass. Normally, if you don’t know how to paste it, it’s very easy to break, bubble, get stuck in dust, etc. But, with self-adhesive glasses, just put the machine in the frame and follow the instructions for a few minutes to have a new sticker that fits snugly, with little deviation, no dust or shine.
Self-adhesive strength comes with a frame that fits each machine.
Self-adhesive strength is also divided into many types, there are transparent, flat or 2.5D, there are rough coating or anti-peeping. Prices also range from more than 100,000 VND for a combo of glasses and frames to millions of VND for very good quality from big brands. Plastic frames can be kept for later use. If you buy a frame for iPhone 12 Pro, you can still use it with 13 Pro and 14 Pro, or 12 Pro Max, you can use it with 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max because these machines are almost identical in size.
Just a few simple steps to paste it, no experience needed, significantly limiting broken stickers, misaligned or sticky dirt, bubbles.
The results are usually quite satisfactory, with fewer errors and failures than the old tempered stickers.
However, there are still some people who complain that they have been glued wrongly when using this type. Some cheap lines are also not high quality stickers. For example, if buying the whole combo is only about 120,000 VND, it means that the tempered glass part is only equivalent to other types of several tens of thousands of VND.
Matte coated tempered glass
This type has been popular for a long time and is still sought after by many people today. The advantage of rough coatings is that they are very anti-glare, not shiny, and reflect ambient light like normal glass. This rough surface also helps to increase the smoothness when swiping the screen, preventing fingerprints, sweat causing hiss. Therefore, some types are also advertised as better gaming support, smoother touch.
The matte coating helps limit light reflection, increasing the smoothness when gliding your fingers on the screen.
However, this rough coating will greatly affect the visibility of the iPhone, especially with the lines using new OLED panels.
When there is a matte coating, the deep black advantage of OLED almost disappears, there is always a grayish matte layer on the screen. Color quality and contrast are also affected. Even visibility in direct sunlight will be significantly reduced.
Therefore, if you often use your phone to watch movies, edit photos and videos, or often use it outside in the sun, you should not stick with matte coated glass. If you often play games indoors, you can consider it, but remember to buy a high-end one to avoid peeling off the coating after a period of use.
Anti-peeping tempered glass
This type of glass is much more preferred than matte coated glass. The glass layer is specially made so that light only penetrates in the direct direction, reducing the viewing angle of the screen so that only the owner can see it, people around will only see the black color covering the screen.
The anti-peep strength only makes the screen visible in the face-to-face orientation.
This type of glasses is for those who do not like to be peeked when texting, surfing the web… However, if the bad guys stand behind them, they can still see the screen. In addition, its major drawback is distorting the display color and reducing the brightness of the screen. Therefore, it is not suitable for people who like to watch movies, edit photos and videos and can cause battery drain as well as affect outdoor use.
Anti-blue light tempered glass
Even high-end phone screens can still emit a small amount of blue light, and a tempered glass of this type can block that amount of blue light from reaching the user’s eyes without affecting the display quality. Overall, apart from making the screen slightly yellowish.
Blue light filters significantly reduce the amount of blue light and can have an extra layer of UV protection.
The strong anti-blue light will be suitable for those who have sensitive eyes, easy pain, eye pain or often use the phone in the dark.
However, current phones often have built-in modes to reduce blue light, for example on iPhones True Tone and Night Shift. Therefore, the use of anti-blue light tempered glass practically no longer has a significant effect.
