Removing a tempered glass screen protector?

Draeger · 14 Mar 2020 at 14:59

I have a P30 Pro with a Spigen Glass R tempered glass screen protector fitted. Works very well but it needs replaced now as it has a crack in it.

Whats the best way to remove it from the phone in order to fit a new one?

Bit of heat and a credit card would be my go to option. It'll still crack most likely but if you go slow then it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Just stick something thin and not scratchy in between and lift.

Plastic card or whatever.

The screen protector will probably shatter into bits but it should be sandwiched between a film layer totally Safe.

Just pull it off with your nails - if it's broken, you don't need to worry about further cracks, and they don't shatter.

Excellent, cheers folks. The Spigen one I have on just now which is cracked is from memory, only held on by adhesive around the curved edges so I'm hoping it doesn't make too much mess when I remove it. Replacement protector arriving today from the rainforest place so will give it a pop later.

Thanks for the replies.

I use a wooden cocktail stick.

Use your nail in one corner, raise slowly. It will auto come off, dead easy.
