USG Tempered Glass Screen Protector

Today, I'll be doing a review on a screen protector (SP)
It's not any ordinary SP. It's a tempered glass screen protector.
Yes, I said it. A screen protector made of tempered glass :)
The current available brands for the mentioned SP are SGP Glas.T, xGlas, and USG.
Orange is the normal SP and the black is USG tempered glass SP
The installation for the SP was easier than the normal one. It was a one time installation with minimal fixing required. Anyone can do the installation as long the steps followed are correct.

The SP are anti-scratch, anti-fingerprint, anti-dust, bubble free silicone, oil resistance coating. It's a complete package for a SP. The thickness of the SP is 0.55mm.

1) Ensure there is absolute minimal dust when the installation starts. This is to prevent any dust sticking to the SP or the phone. It is best to do it in a steamy bathroom. If there are dust, just use cello tape to remove it.

2) Align the SP onto the phone. I would highly advise that the user stick a home button sticker as it will be very helpful during the aligning. 

3) Once it is align, use your thumb and press at the middle of the SP and watch how it spreads. Like I said, it is one time installation and does not need any fixing.

4) Once it is done, use the microfiber cloth and remove any stain.

As you can see, the SP align nicely with my case as the case does not cover the side of the screen. 
It feels much secure than using an aluminium bumper.

The one I bought only available at Bangkok. Alternatively, local users can buy SGP or xGlas :)

I would highly recommend any users to get the tempered glass SP.

UPDATE: It's been 2 months 10 days since I posted this and yet the glass is still intact with my phone. It is a very durable yet affordable tempered glass for your iPhone!
