00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:07.319
I don't often review screen protectors why you might ask well it's because most

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:11.000
of them are complete garbage they're not very clear they are difficult to apply

00:00:09.360 --> 00:00:15.519
they make the screen feel weird and then finally they come off it's a terrible

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:20.519
user experience and I don't use them personally in fact I've only done a

00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:24.800
screen protector review Once when I did a real world test of a product called

00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:30.080
liquid armor which I continue to use to this day by dragging a protected phone

00:00:28.119 --> 00:00:34.719
and a dummy control phone down the Street behind my motorcycle this time

00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:38.960
unfortunately I don't have anything so extreme planned but what I do have is a

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:43.120
really impressive screen covering product from a basically unheard of

00:00:40.879 --> 00:00:48.440
Canadian company it's called Phantom Phantom Hourglass it's called

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:51.840
Phantom glass and it's the first product since liquid armor that has really

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:54.160
gotten my attention and made me think about

00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:03.840
switching the flash Voyager GTX usb3

00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:07.960
drive from Corsair provides SSD like performance and fits comfortably in your

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:12.439
pocket click now to learn more all right so what is it well in a nutshell uh you

00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:16.759
know that super cool scratch resistant Corning Gorilla Glass that you've got on

00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:21.280
your phone in all likelihood well it's a screen protector that's made of that

00:01:19.080 --> 00:01:26.920
instead of some layo piece of plastic that means it's flexible shatter

00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:29.280
resistant scrape resistant oleophobic so

00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:34.000
it's easy to wipe clean and it's almost perfectly clear it won't hurt the

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:38.159
touchcreen performance and finally it won't feel any different from the stock

00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:42.000
glass other than raising the surface of your phone a fraction of a millimeter

00:01:40.399 --> 00:01:46.000
something that folks who like vinyl wraps from companies like dbrand might

00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:51.680
actually find desirable because it'll be more even but it gets better their claim

00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:56.479
that I totally didn't believe is that aside from being removable and reusable

00:01:54.240 --> 00:02:00.920
it's super easy to apply and basically impossible to get bubbles stuck in so

00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:04.719
after the first step where you use the included wipe to clean the surface of

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:10.840
the phone I peeled off the backing and tried to lay it down as gradually and

00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:15.360
carefully as I possibly could because I thought it would be really hard to take

00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:20.360
off and reapply I ended up not aligning it quite right and it turns out it was

00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:23.720
both super easy to take off and much easier to put on than I thought because

00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:28.280
I checked the instructions when I did it the second time I did two phones in a

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:32.280
matter of minutes once I figured it out you just drop it right on the spot on

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:37.280
the screen and the bubbles like just work themselves out it uses some kind of

00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:42.760
silicone nanoadhesive nonsense to achieve all this but all I know is damn

00:02:39.640 --> 00:02:44.840
it works really well and once on it

00:02:42.760 --> 00:02:48.000
actually stays equally impressive it is noticeably thicker like I said

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:52.480
especially if you have a button that comes through it like at the bottom of

00:02:49.480 --> 00:02:53.840
an iPhone but the edges are smoothed so

00:02:52.480 --> 00:02:57.840
they're not harsh on your fingers or anything like that and they won't peel

00:02:55.640 --> 00:03:02.280
up even if you have a snug fitting case I actually requested two versions of it

00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:06.440
one for my 1 M8 daily driver and another for my old iPhone 4 because I wanted to

00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:09.799
test and this is the last kind of miraculous claim that they're making

00:03:07.799 --> 00:03:13.760
here I wanted to test their claim that the adhesive coating actually fills

00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:17.680
micros scratches in the glass on beat up devices so this one I got one for just

00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:21.879
cuz I wanted to have one for it this is an over three-year-old phone that has

00:03:19.799 --> 00:03:26.440
tons of micros scratches all over the screen so I put it on after first trying

00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:31.680
to kind of catch some of the scratches in the light and after I did no it does

00:03:29.799 --> 00:03:35.920
doesn't fill in all the scratches but it did make a visible difference many small

00:03:34.239 --> 00:03:39.560
small scratches were filled in to the point where I can't see them anymore and

00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:43.879
some of the bigger ones well the visibility is actually reduced so there

00:03:41.480 --> 00:03:48.799
you go does what it says it is that's it I guess one of the most positive reviews

00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:51.879
I've ever given on this channel uh maybe I'm a sellout and they slipped me a

00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:55.959
couple hundreds maybe it's because I'm biased towards my Canadian bro who

00:03:54.040 --> 00:03:58.920
brought this product to Market or maybe it's because this truly is the first

00:03:57.480 --> 00:04:03.159
green protector product that has impressed me in the last two years

00:04:00.519 --> 00:04:08.280
because it's basically like putting another identical skin of corning's

00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:12.480
awesome glass that I like I'm a huge fan of as an extra protective layer over top

00:04:10.959 --> 00:04:16.840
