Test of the Glas T Slim screen protection glass for iPhone 5

The screen of theiPhone 5is definitely the piece
the most fragile and the most expensive to replace if the iPhone falls. Among
screen protectors available on the market, we hadtested and very appreciated the glass of
"Glas T" protection for iPhone 4/4S in this article
then the
Glas tR for iPhone 5 in this other article
.

We even had
tested the Glas T for iPad in this article on VIPad.fr
.

After showing you some photosin our preview, here is the
full review of the Glas T Slim for iPhone 5, a more
fine of the Glas T.

If we are going to test the Glas T Slim today, know that theGlas
tR also has its Slim version
.

In terms of packaging, it is always faultless at SGP with a box
solid in the shape of a book where each piece is well protected.

The whole thing is very complete with of course the window (protected by 2
small films on each side, itself in a small cardboard case) plus one
alcohol swab and a microfiber cloth to clean the screen
the iPhone as well as 6 "Home" buttons to stick in epoxy (2 black, 2 white, 1
green and 1 pink).

New compared to its predecessors, aprotective film
excellent quality is offered for the back of the iPhone 5
. He
broken down into 3 parts, one for the aluminum part and 2 small ones for the
glass parts at the top and bottom of the iPhone 5.

The Glas T Slim, as its name suggests, is intended to be thinner than the Glas T
with a thickness passingfrom 0.4 mm to 0.26 mm or 35% of
less
for always equivalent properties.

Even if it is not easy to see it (or even to take a photo of it), the
Slim version is above the classic version).

Compared to protective films, installation is easier due to
the rigidity of the window. In fact, you can easily take it from all 4
corners in order to best place it above the screen. Then all it takes is one
support in the center of the window so that it sits quietly and does not
does not allow any bubbles to form. If a small bubble remains, it will disappear
within 24 hours (I actually had a few bubbles that went away
within 6/7 hours).

The glass is very well cut and leaves a margin of 0.1mm around the button
Home and the speaker output if it is difficult to properly center, which ensures
a small margin of safety.

You will have to be precise because in theory, it will not be possible to do
a 2nd try. However, after a first, slightly crooked pose, I was able to
take off the glass immediately and put it back without problem but I think that
I was still very lucky.

That's it, the hardest part is done and now all that remains is to enjoy it
and, in this game, the window is completely forgotten.No loss of
brightness or 'tactile' touch is not to be deplored
.

I will even admit that I find thetouch 'glass' and especially the
lighter and more pleasant finger gliding
only on the window
original.

Moreover, I who cannot stand fingerprints and who always have a
micro-fiber cloth at hand, I was clearly impressed by the
glass processing. Even with slightly sweaty fingers, thewindow does not
don't mark
or the union minimum, where the original glass
Apple scores a lot.

When it comes to stripes, the Glas T is uncompromising. Whether with the Slim
after more than a month of use or with the
Glas tR tested here
or even theGlas T on iPhone 4/4S tested
To be
, no scratches appeared.

The Slim version being thinner, I found that the Home button (admittedly,
necessarily a little depressed) was easily usable and I did not feel
no discomfort.

However, SGP offers 6 supplied epoxy Home buttons, which will stop
just below the window so that the support is done without hindrance and that they
do not hang up if you put your iPhone in a pocket for example.

The Slim version, just like its big sisters,will protect
effectively drops iPhone screen
especially since she
will not break into sharp pieces and will remain fractured on
the screen
(like a car windshield). It’s reassuring!

In terms of small defects, I noticed the same little problem as with his
older, that is to say that the outer edges tended to retain a little
dust. Nothing too bad in itself but it would be good if SGP tried
to improve the treatment of the sides in order to avoid this small inconvenience.

In terms of reflection, no miracle, the Glas T window is no better than the window
original.

Of course, some will say that a glass protection to protect a screen
glass is heresy.

Now have a screen safe from falls, which does not mark or very
little fingerprints with a very pleasant glide and even
better than the original window, there are still many advantages which
reassure me and allow me to take full advantage of the iPhone 5 screen
without having to clean it regularly.

In conclusion, as far as I am concerned, I will never use my iPhone again
or iPad without a Glas T which brings me comfort and security which I do not
I won't be able to do without it anymore.
