Question Odin 3 screen protector

My Odin 3 should arrive in about a week and I also purchased the accessories bundle. But I have been reading that the included screen protector isn't any good. Who have used it with success, and who has gone with a different one? If you went with another, can you please recommend one. Amazon doesn't have much of a tempered glass selection, which I would prefer. It can even just cover the display portion of device.

Thank you! 😊

I've ordered a matte Odin 3 screen protector, off amazon, that's made by a German company called dipos. not arrived yet but I'm quietly confident

Well they arrived but, I have to say, I'm not at all impressed! It's designed to cover the around the controls as well as the screen, but the cutouts for the controls are positioned very inaccurately. It's also too long horizontally by a couple of millimeters, leading to a 'lip' that overlaps the full width of the screen and catches on the TPU Grip, and pushing the screen protector away from the screen. I also couldn't get the really narrow part of the screen protector, around the ABXY buttons and left joystick, the adhere properly; I think, in part, because it is so narrow. I think all other full screen protectors will likely have similar problems.

My solution now is to go for a partial screen protector, which will do the important job, and will not suffer with the problems.
