RhinoShieldTransparent Impact Screen Protector Pro Compatible with [iPhone 16 Pro] | Superior Impact Protection, Scratch Resistance, Static-free, Blue Light Resistant, Installation Tool Included

best screen protector I have ever had. And I have had a lot. I wasn't sure I would like the Matte Finish, but I really do.

The adhesive holding the screen protector to the tray was not working and it was hard to get the screen protector to align properly without introducing excessive dust. Then when I peeled back the plastic covering the adhesive side of the screen protector ripped in half from underneath, I had to try and peel it off which somehow caused the adhesive to start lifting rather than the plastic covering. The tray was pretty much useless. What’s worse is that this screen protector has a major flaw around the camera cutout. I’ve been using Rhinoshield screen protectors since the iPhone 7. On my iPhone 14 Pro the Dynamic Island cutout was different, it sat flush onto the screen. This new one is raised from the Dynamic Island so if you press on it the screen protector starts to bubble and lift up near the top speaker insert. For the money you could just keep replacing glass screen protectors from other brands (that also don’t have unaesthetic camera cutouts). I’m super disappointed about the decrease in quality coming from a longtime customer and supporter. Do better!

Easy to install

I’ve been using rhinosheild products for years and have never failed me. The installation of the screen protector was quick and easy. The only thing that was annoying was how dusty the applicator and protector was and no way to clean them before application. The installation was smooth but can see some specs of dust in the Dynamic Island area. Other than that great product.

I did the installation this morning, attempting to follow the directions. As soon as I pulled the tab, it came out and clearly ripped from the layer it was supposed to pull off. No problem- manually pulled the layer off and put on phone. There is a line in the screen protector that is clearly a perfection in the product. The line is always visible. Took it off and went back to the Anker screen protectors I have been using the last 2 years. I do not recommend this product.

For the past 7 years, I’ve only used RhinoShield products—including phone cases, screen protectors, lens protectors, AirPods cases, and tablet cases. Basically, everything Apple-related, I’ve always trusted their products.The screen protector for the iPhone 16 Pro Max was no exception, but for the first time in 7 or even 8 years, the quality let me down. I have no doubts about the product itself in terms of durability and protection—it’s solid. But I think the issue is that this protector is thicker than all the previous ones.After applying it to my phone and my wife’s phone (we ordered the version with Blue Screen Protectant), the touchscreen sensitivity of our iPhones dropped significantly. I often had to press harder to open links in Safari, view photos, or reply to messages—it required more effort than usual.Because of this, I returned the screen protector and hope they improve it. I’d love to hear from them if they make any adjustments to reduce the thickness. I even compared it to my old iPhone, which I upgraded from (14 Pro Max), and the difference in thickness between the screen protectors for the 14 Pro Max and 16 Pro Max was very noticeable—the new one was much thicker.

So far, working as intended - no marks or scratches. The new application tool definitely helped installing the shield with no bubbles.

I purchased the 9H protector from Rhino Shield, and it was absolutely terrible. The installation and touchscreen response were absolutely terrible. I got this one, and it's completely different. The touchscreen response is much better, and the installation went smoothly. It would be cool if they produced some instructions for users who have no idea what they are looking at, which is why I am denoting a star.I would highly recommend going with this one on transparent. I have been using the Impact series since I had an iPhone 4, and it has saved all my phone screens!It would be cool if the camera and sensors didn’t have the stupid rings, but here we are.
