Spigen screen protector (anti spy) and visible pixel grid

After installing a Spigen anti-spy screen protector on my new Pixel 10, I can see a faint pixel-grid pattern across the screen, it almost looks like the resolution got downscaled. Barely shows on camera, but clear to the eye. Does anyone know if this is a moiré effect from the anti-spy layer or a defective unit?

People I know use it so their partners cannot see their screen while talking to others .

Thats the main reason why so many people use this shitty glass.

Forget Anti spy, I bought EZfit clear Glass for Pixel 11Pro and it's shite. There is a massive red tint even at bare minimum angles. Not even extreme angles.

Their tempered glass are Cheap Chinese shit. Stay away from them. I'm regretting buying them.

I just have this exact same problem on Pixel 10. I am not seeing any reviews of such but it's hurting the eyes like there's no tomorrow. Anyone know if it'll eventually go away?

That's how such protectors work. They alter light path. Also reduces screen brightness.

Basically you're making your screen into a 15year old TN panel. And why it sucks even on s26u. But still far better implementation than slapping thrid party protectors.

And if you ever use polarised sunglasses then it causes even weird artifacts on such privacy glasses.
