The Invisible Shield begining to fail after just one month.
So – it’s been a month to the day since the Invisible Shield was applied to my iPhone and it’s already starting to fail.
Not surprisingly, the weakest links are the little arms that are designed to wrap around the edges of the phone to protect the chrome – if one of these arms starts to lift and lint gets underneath then that’s pretty much it. Needless to say, this is what’s happened to me.
The front shield is still working well and the back, of course, is also fine but the edges will now continue to get worse and worse. I suspect I’ll take a cutting knife to the worst bits and cut the shield back so there’s no leading edge on the side, this way the phone will still have front and back protection but none on the sides.
In spite of the fact that I have never previously used any shield or cover for my phones – I’ll probably carry on with the Invisible Shield until it becomes unsightly or pointless, whichever is the sooner. At which point, I will revert back to using the phone as bare as the day it was born and simply allow it to acquire the bumps and scratches of everyday use.
