iPhone XR screen protectors

Which screen protector to pick for the iPhone XR

The screen is the most expensive part of a phone and the one that almost always takes the hit in a fall. This page lists only protectors cut for the iPhone XR — the speaker and camera cut-outs line up, the edges don't fight with a case.

• 9H tempered glass. The usual pick: 0.33 mm, polished 2.5D edge, oleophobic coating against fingerprints. The glass takes the impact and cracks itself, the screen stays intact.
• Full-screen glass (full glue / full cover). Covers the screen edge to edge and bonds across the whole surface, not just the rim — touch and the fingerprint reader work as without glass.
• Privacy glass. The image is visible only straight on; the person next to you sees a black screen. Slightly darker, so raise the brightness a notch.
• Protective film. Thin and flexible, better than glass on curved-edge screens; stops scratches, impacts less so.
• Camera lens glass. A separate piece over the lens block — after the screen, the lenses collect scratches next.

How to choose and apply

If you use a case, choose a glass whose edge stays clear of the case rim (case friendly) — otherwise it starts lifting at the edge. Before applying, clean the screen with the wipe from the kit and pick up dust with the sticker, align the glass at the top by the speaker and press from the centre outwards: the adhesive spreads by itself. In "2 pcs" kits the second glass is a spare.

Together with the glass

Glass protects the screen, a case protects the body: iPhone XR cases are on a separate shelf. Other models — all screen protectors.

FAQ

Will it definitely fit the iPhone XR? Yes — only this model's protectors are listed here; if a product fits several models, they are listed on the product page.

Will there be bubbles? On a clean screen the glass settles without bubbles; single bubbles at the edge disappear within a day. A speck of dust under the glass is removed by lifting the glass and picking it up with the sticker.

Can I return it? Yes, within 14 days if the package is unopened — an applied glass cannot be returned.
