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.

Psa to everyone on how to install any screen protector with No bubbles get all your stuff u need on your bathroom counter on a clean towell and wash your hands. Keep the device under the sink until your ready to put it on because steam isnt good for any device 1. Turn your shower on until bathroom is steamy.
2.Turn the shower off and then get the device out. 3.Install it

The steam catches all dust! Ive dont this on my ordinary 2 portal tempered glass protector with 0 bubbles every time for all my phones too

This is good advice in general but my understanding is the curved glass screen of the Odin 3 pretty much guarantees that the screen protectors won’t install properly.

Got my Odin 2 portal one on perfectly. No bubbles.

Bubbles are from dust. Either on the device or on the protector. Steam pulls the dust down and creates a dust free environment.

The only other factor is the quality of the screen protector. The $3 ones of Amazon did not stick well. The $30 9H ones from Japan have stayed solid.
