[Q] Screen Protector - Curved Screen causes bubbles?

[kvs678]

Hi,

I have tried several dry-application screen protectors, and I am unable to apply them without strip of air at the top and bottom edges. I am presuming that this is due to the curvature of the display.

Has anyone found a screen protector that doesn't have this issue? I am aware that some manufacturers shorten the top and bottom edges of their protectors to avoid this.

Also, do wet-application protector fare better in this regard?

Thanks.

I got a free screen protector when a bought a gel case on ebay, the interesting thing was that the screen protector was slightly curved in shape so I didn't have too much problem with bubbles and removed them by pressing down on the bubbles gently with a credit card.

This is the case I bought: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/RED-S-CU...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2a11860e69

neo: That's good to know. You're referring to the strips of air at the very edges of the display, right?

CMX: hmm, that's quite interesting. I have never heard of a curved protector before.
