Otterbox announces Alpha Glass screen protector


Otterbox this week launched a new glass screen protector. The company says Alpha Glass offers good protection from scratches and impact, but also good clarity. The product also offers easy bubble free installation.

Lightly coat the glass with the provided alcohol wipe, clean the display with the included microfiber cleaning cloth to remove fingerprints and dust, and align the screen protector with the Alpha Glass application card. Gentle pressure safely secures the screen protector and pushes out any air for bubble-free coverage.

I prefer the glass screen protectors over the plastic films simply for the feel. It feels like the regular touch screen. Generally they're a little thicker, so that could cause complications with cases and accessories, but if I do have a screen protector on my phone, it's a glass one.

The Alpha Glass protector is available now stand-alone for $29.95.
