Bought the Trianium Tempered Glass, it was labeled on Amazon for S7 and S6 but I needed something asap so gave it a shot.

Check it out here ABSOLUTELY ridiculous. I believe they just took old stock of S6 screen protectors and stuck a S7 sticker on the back.

It fits, but if you installed it it would slice your front facing camera right in half.

I know everyone is going to start looking for the best screen protectors but this is one everyone should definitely avoid.

This is a known issues for the note 5. I have been through at least 7 screen protectors and each one leaves a halo effect around the screen. There are not going to be a lot of options to avoid this. The only thing I can recommend is buying any non-tempered protectors and trimming the edges. The only problem with this is that your whole screen will not be covered.

That's not true, I have a Skinomi one installed right now with absolutely no halo. It does not go edge to edge but there is no visible halo with it.
This one wasn't an issue of a halo, it doesn't even fit at all. If you were to fit it to your phone it would install but the front camera is cut off.

But yes you are right, I have ordered some clear protectors as well.

I tried a skinomi on my note 5 had decent halo. I wish I would have taken pictures. It seems like it could be hit and miss depending on the cut of the screen protector and how much beveling on your specific phone. I may be willing to try the skinomi on my s7 it just gets expensive trying 5 different screen protectors.
