How long did you have the protector one for? Bubbles normally disappear after a few days.
It was not bubbles, it is more halo-ish line edges. They don't go away (had it with my 5t). Infact the expand and collect dust under them. It is due to the lack of adhesive on the edges as well.

Just FYI it has nothing to do with lack of adhesive, it's the rounded edges on the screen of this phone which is causing so many TGSP issues.
No idea why OP had to make it so dramatic and why companies can't cut the protector smaller but here we are.

What are Orzly playing at? They don't seem to be sending their orders?
Yeah, it's really strange. Orzly is getting these protectors to their U.K. customers within 3-4 days. However, it's almost as if they are holding onto all U.S. orders until they get enough to justify one big bulk shipment to the U.S.

I ordered my Orzly protectors from Amazon 3 weeks ago now and still no sign of them. I'm actually starting to think it may not be on Orzly, but more on U.S. customs just sitting on these overseas shipments at the docks. I know that's been a very annoying issue that causes delays when I order car parts from over seas.

I'm in the UK and haven't got mine so perhaps they've got a supply issue.

I have ordered 2 Orzly TGSP and what I can say is that they fit perfectly to my screen. It's a full stick screen so there is no air layer between.
The only inconvenient is that ther is a black contouring which hides some pixels of the phone depending your angle of view.
I recommend

Got my Orzly this morning. The two of them didn't have a good install, I had bubbles around the edge of the protector as if there wasn't enough glue on it. It also cuts off a small amount of text at the edge of the screen although not as much as the official one. The quality of the glass is great though and very oleophobic. I've ordered another pack to try and get a good install as I'M OCD about screen protectors and don't want any bubbles at all.

The bubbles go away after a few days. I had the same thing on my install, but the bubble became smaller and smaller and then finally disappeared.

Others have reported the same thing. If you haven't taken yours off, just wait a few days.

My original install looked like this. All the bubbles disappeared after 3 days.

Got my Orzly protectors yesterday. I was able to install the first one pretty easily. I have the same bubble on the left side, near the center just like yours. I'm confident it will go away in a few days. My official OnePlus TGSP had the same issue and after a few days the bubble went away with that one too. If it doesn't go away after ~7 days I've still got 3 other Orzly protectors as backups.

My initial impressions of the protector are good. Oleophobic coating seems better than the OnePlus TGSP. And the glass seems thinner, making it look more like there is no protector installed. My only gripe is that the Orzly protector seems to cover the left/right sides of the screen slightly more than the OnePlus TGSP. It's not a deal breaker and I haven't noticed it cut off any actual text. But just something to keep in mind if you didn't like how the OnePlus TGSP cut off the sides, and were hoping the Orzly one would be better.

As long as this bubble does go away, I highly recommend the protector.

This one has pretty bad reviews on the Amazon US site, what's the verdict on this product?

I tried the nillkin pro+ and it was a total pain in the ass to install, i finally got one on with minimal bubbles but one of the edges cracked every so slightly. Another one cracked in half while I was trying to center it and the first one I got I just didn't do t right. So is the application of this one easy to do? Does it fit correctly?

That's funny. The negative reviews are all because there is some areas around the edges where the protector doesn't appear to stick tot he screen. However, many people have reported that if you give it a couple of days, those bubbles heal themselves. I actually experienced this is exact same thing with the OnePlus TGSP. I had a couple bubble areas around the edges that I couldn't get out. I decided to just live with it for a while but after just 2 days, those bubbles had completely disappeared.

I have a bubble on the left side of the Orzly protector I installed yesterday. However, about 18 hours after install and the bubble seems to already be shrinking. From what others have said, I expect the bubble to be gone within the next 2-3 days. I bet all those negative reviewers had their bubbles disappear after a while too.

I just got the Orzly. It's pretty good. I have also used the official glass so this is my comparison.

The Orzly is slightly and noticeable smaller. I don't think it cuts off any more of the screen but there is a bigger gap around the outside edge. Seems more noticeable top and bottom.

The edge of the Orzly is sharper, not as rounded so if you used gestures and drag from too low it does feel sharper. Official is much more rounded.

So given both of the above the official screen definitely blends into the phone more both visually and from a texture point of view. However the Orzly will go with more cases than the official case.

The glass of the Orzly feels better, don't know why but it feels smoother and more like the phone screen.

The Orzly was easier to install, the official was a pain but I managed it. Orzly is more forgiving and I readjusted easily and it worked out fine.

Orzly is much much cheaper. £7 for 2 screens Vs £17 for 1.

I am happy with both the Orzly and the official screen and would happily rock either. If you are going caseless I would say the official case is better if you dont mind paying the extra. If you are using a case I'd say just get 4 of the Orzly screens for less than the OEM.

For those who initially had bubbles, that later disapeared, about how long did it take for the bubbles to go away?

I'm now 3 days into having the Orzly protector installed and I still have one nagging bubble that doesn't seem to be going away. Just curious how long I should give it before going round 2 with one of my 3 spare Orzly protectors.

It took 3 or 4 days for the upper right bubble to completely disappear for me.
