When searching for a screen protector for your new phone, you want to make sure you get an edge to edge screen protector. Moshi’s iVisor is one of those and a very premium product. Moshi offers the iVisor in a bubble-proof plastic screen protector as well but the glass version is what we’ll be taking a look at today. The iVisor is a huge problem solver. With the curved glass of the Galaxy S6, how exactly do you protector your screen without any of the disadvantages of screen protectors that stop short? The answer is the Moshi iVisor.

Look and Feel

Frankly the iVisor looks great. Most glass screen protectors don’t stretch all the way across the glass on phones with curved glass but the iVisor does. On the top, bottom and side bezels the Moshi iVisor will match the color of your phone so it looks seamless after you place it on your phone. Glass covers the back and multitasking buttons but it’s clear here so there’s no visible interference. In addition to the multitasking and back buttons, the Samsung logo under the speaker and front facing camera are clear with cut outs for the home button, proximity sensor and speaker.

My only complaint with the Moshi iVisor, and you’ll find this with almost every screen protector, is how many fingerprints it picks up. It’s slightly more than the regular glass on the phone. I’m not entirely sure why it shows up more on-screen protectors than the screens but it does. Other than that, there are no major downfalls. There is no friction added to finger movement like with plastic screen protectors and it feels great to the touch.

Protection

The focus of screen protectors is to protect. Obvious statement is obvious. The big difference with the Moshi iVisor is the whole screen coverage. Other screen protectors that don’t go all the way to the edges open you up to a whole world of problems like getting cracks in the side of your screen protector and cracking the screen where the protector doesn’t cover.

The Moshi iVisor isn’t going to make your screen indestructible. Any screen protector that markets itself that way is flat-out lying. But there are a ton of advantages to using the Moshi iVisor. First off, scratch protection. With the iVisor placed on your phone, your screen is virtually unscratchable. Secondly, force displacement. Any kind of impact to your phone is going to be displaced throughout the body and screen. With the iVisor on, there’s an extra layer of protection and extra screen to displace the force of the drop.

Last but certainly not least is if your screen shatters, you want this protector on top of it. Shards of glass are not pretty and they’re even less pretty when they’re sticking in your skin. The Moshi iVisor should keep the cracked glass in place and you may even still be able to use your phone. I have a friend with a demolished screen that has many cracks in it that is still able to use it because he has a glass screen protector on it. If he had put that screen protector on it before he dropped it, it may not have even broken at all.

Conclusion

Moshi is a leader in products that look amazing and function even better. The Moshi iVisor for the Galaxy S6 is no different. The design is excellent, the function is excellent and there’s no screen protector I’d rather have on my phone. Other companies are going to have to vastly out engineer or outprice Moshi for me to recommend anything but the iVisor Glass Screen Protector.
