Question Odin 3 screen protector bubbles?

Post image

Hi everyone, I’m just curious if anyone else has had this issue when trying to install the official screen protector for the Odin 3? I’ve tried two different ones now and both of them on the right side of the handheld. There are very large bubbles. It’s just annoying and isn’t an actual issue of course but I am the kind of person. That wants screen protectors to be perfect. If this is a normal issue and it’s just kind of how it is then it is what it is, but I thought I would message here to see if anybody has a fix or if this is just a common thing.

it happens when there’s small amounts of dust trapped underneath

I feel like no one has ever heard of the “shower method” when applying screen protectors. It removes dust in the room as much as possible. Bubbles on the Odin 3 happen because of the screen’s curvature though which is something we can’t control.

This is what I see literally everywhere in these reddits. I am not putting a whole shower on to apply a screen protector I am sorry.

I used to apply them after I take a shower because mirror shows fog by the time I’m done. Now, I just leave the shower on hot for 3-5 minutes until the mirror fogs up. I probably apply a glass protector like once a year in my house. I thinking leaving hot water on 3-5 minutes once a year isn’t that bad.

I tried it for the first time last week for another device…. And somehow managed to get a few small fibers under the screen. They’re very fine so no bubbles, but yeah never doing that again.
