Purpose
So I've been trying out the different screen protectors for the 6P, including the tempered glass ones, but I can't find one that I just love. I just want to get different suggestions, opinions, maybe some reviews.
What I've Tried
Spigen Screen Protector Crystal - Favorite so far
Rearth Invisible Defender - Lifted up when in case.
Related
Anyone have a recommended glass screen protector? The one from Spigen are pretty pricey. I also have a Spigen Neo Hybrid case, so I believe that also affects the placement of the screen protector.
I've seen many mixed reviews on screen protectors.
Please and thank you.

I've compiled a list of popular ones here, along with their respective thickness. The glass screen protectors any all price points have had mixed reviews. Common problems are the edges chipping, cracks, bubbles and 'spiderwebs'. They can be quite pricy too so definitely worth doing some research!

Anybody use one of the tempered glass protectors with TPU cases, or other cases you have to pop on and off? When I tried to use PET screen protectors with my Diztronic case, it just peeled up the corners and ruined the protector.
I'd like to put a tempered glass protector on, but the Diztronic has to come off regularly to remove dust. Will it cause fit problems or peel away/fracture the glass when I try to put the case back on? Suggestions in general for protection without getting some kinda bulky Commuter case are welcome as well. I feel like some kind of case is pretty necessary, as opposed to a skin, because I use my phone in a lot of gritty, dirty places, and while I don't drop it often, if it does go down, it's typically onto concrete. It's survived the past two years pretty much unscathed, but I want to keep it as my daily driver for at least a few more months.

TGSPs are typically smaller than plastic film ones, to ensure that they'll work with cases. I have the Redpepper TGSP on my Nexus 4, and it fits with all my cases, including a Diztronic.
I'm having Distronic TPU case and glass screen protector on my mom's N4, as there is a curve on the front panel the screen protectors would usually be even smaller than the actual screen.
And I'm having totally no problem with the screen protector and the case, except the uncovered thickness of the glass screen protector makes it relatively more noticeable than a plastic one.
Anybody know about this particular tempered glass, looks a little more official than others.

I just bought the ivso one and it snapped on me. Plus it did a horrible job applying to the screen. Maybe it's harder applying these glass protectors on tablets versus phones, but it sure didn't apply as easy as the nillkin for my nexus 5. The ivso also didn't have rounded edges either.
Just an update. Glass applied flawlessly. Still no rounded edges, but a good buy in my opinion.
Looking for recommendations on a matte screen protector both glass or plastic. I am really interested on a matte screen protector and need the opinions and recommendations from those of you that currently have one and if you recommend it.
FYI I am currently using the Spigen Crystal.
I had a previous case with a screen protector built in for my S9+ and it worked great, but I'm having issues now. I found this one:
Case with Protector, but it says not compatible with fingerprint ID. I assume this is because of the fingerprint built into the screen?
Does anyone know of a case that has a screen protector AND works with the fingerprint reader? Or is the built in protector not possible due to the fingerprint reader in the screen now?
I would assume no built in screen protectors will work..in order for the FPS to work, the screen protector has to basically be attached to the screen with zero air gap between phone and protector..

One of my friend used Gadgetshieldz case fit screen protector and he used many third party cases. Those fits are really great But I've ordered normal screen protector from them, waiting to order case fit once they released.

and this was on the S10+?
For screen protector I would go with whitestone dome. For me it acts the same as if I had the preinstalled samsung film. I would then go on amazon and check out reviews and questions for whitestone dome. People tend to post their comparable cases. I am using the UAG Monarch and it fits without a problem.
I HIGHLY recommend the Whitestone protectors. The adhesive makes them SUBSTANTIALLY more chip/crack resistant and the touch sensitivity is light years ahead of other protectors (like ZAGG). It was my go-to on Note and now S10+.
I am a minimalist and finally found a case that's thin but also adds SOME protection. TORRAS on Amazon. The hard plastic has a matte finish, amazing touch and feel but little protection. The silicone option is thin, has ridges to protect camera and screen but slides in pants and pockets easily. It DOES offer drop protection relatively.

I actually just picked up the TORRAS Slim on Amazon, not sure if it's the same one you have. Currently I'm using the Spigen Rugged Armor... but it's too thin in my opinion. I feel like if I drop my phone, I have little protection.
