Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector Twin Pack

Pros
  • Popular brand
  • 9H rating
  • Comes in a pack of two
Cons
  • Fingerprint recognition can be tricky

You can never go wrong with a classic Spigen screen protector. The best part is that this comes in a pack of two so you always have a replacement handy. It has a 9H rating so you can be sure you're getting robust protection. The screen protector has an optimized design so you can enjoy a crystal-clear view of your display. It's also case-compatible so you can pair it with a Spigen case (or any other case brand). Plus, it comes with an oleophobic coating to prevent greasy fingerprints.

RhinoShield Impact Flex Screen Protector

Pros
  • Flexible and ultra-thin
  • Oleophobic coating
  • Uses no-residue adhesive
Cons
  • A bit expensive

The best screen protectors are the ones that keep it simple, like this flexible, ultra-thin film from RhinoShield. At just a little thicker than a sheet of paper, this impact-protection film absorbs shock from bumps or drops, providing seamless, edge-to-edge coverage for your Pixel 6’s screen. The oleophobic coating helps keep pesky greasy or sweaty fingerprints at bay, and the film uses a no-residue adhesive, which means it won’t peel off until you want to remove it, and it leaves no sticky coating behind. At $25, it’s not the cheapest screen protector on our list, but in this instance, you get what you pay for.

InvisibleShield Glass Elite+ Screen Protector

Pros
  • Offers robust scratch protection
  • Provides antimicrobial protection
  • Feels smooth to the touch
Cons
  • Quite expensive

You’ll pay a bit more for this screen protector from InvisibleShield, but it’s the company’s strongest screen protector yet, made from tempered glass and offering maximum scratch protection. ClearPrint technology repels oil from your fingerprints, keeping your screen crystal clear, while antimicrobial protection inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria as well as guards against the microorganisms that can degrade your protector over time. This screen protector also features reinforced edges to protect against bumps and drops, with a cleverly engineered beveled edge that’s practically invisible. It feels smooth too, so you’ll forget your Pixel 6 even has a screen protector applied. Speaking of application, it’s a breeze to install this protector thanks to the EZ Apply tabs, installation tray, and rubber install mat included in every box.

Olixar Tempered Glass Screen Protector

Pros
  • Well-known brand
  • It is ultra-thin at just 0.27mm
  • High-tension 9H tempered glass
Cons
  • Not the cheapest option

You probably already know Olixar for its phone cases, but it also has a great range of screen protectors. Our favorite for the Pixel 6 is this tempered glass one, which is ultra-thin at just 0.27mm, adding minimal bulk to your phone. Constructed from high-tension 9H tempered glass, this screen protector has an anti-shatter film, so although it may crack under excessive impact, it won’t shatter like some other tempered glass protectors. Speaking of impact, it will protect your phone from shock and drops as well as scratches, and it’s easy to install. It won’t affect touchscreen sensitivity or diminish the brightness or sharpness of your Pixel’s display, thanks to a 95% light-penetration ratio. This tough, practically invisible screen protector is an excellent choice if you’re serious about protecting your Pixel 6’s screen.

Skinomi Matte Screen Protector Twin Pack

Pros
  • Quite affordable
  • Comes in a pack of two
  • Tough yet flexible military-grade elastic polymer construction
Cons
  • Not everyone is a fan of matte

If you’re frequently in an environment with bright lighting or you live somewhere hot and sunny, you might find your eyes straining to see due to glare from your screen. Consider this matte screen protector from Skinomi. For under $10, you get a two-pack of screen protectors plus two camera protectors. The self-healing film recovers from minor scratches and scrapes thanks to its tough yet flexible military-grade elastic polymer construction. The matte, anti-glare material significantly reduces glare in bright environments while improving visibility, and it resists scratches, scrapes, punctures, fingerprints, and smudges. Plus, it feels great with its smooth, satin texture. It comes with a liquid solution for easy, bubble-free installation.

Supershieldz Film Screen Protector Six Pack

Pros
  • Comes in a pack of six
  • Offers five-layer protection
  • Super-slim design

Don’t be fooled by the low price of this six-pack of screen protectors from Supershieldz, as you’re getting plenty of bang for your buck. In the box, there are six protectors made from high-quality Japanese PET film. Although each protector is super-slim, it has five layers: An HD clear coating, a scratch-resistant layer, an optical PET layer, a layer of silicon adhesive, and a protective device liner. These protectors adhere perfectly to your Pixel 6, and when it’s time to remove them, no residue’s left behind. They offer excellent protection from scratches, scrapes, and dust while ensuring that touchscreen accuracy and sensitivity aren’t affected.

Best Buy has a surprisingly good Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 preorder deal
Samsung's unboxing of the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is coming out on July 24. That means it is pre-order season now. While Best Buy isn't necessarily the favorite of our collected Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 pre-order deals, it does pretty well for average consumers that don't have niche needs. And, as a result of Best Buy being Best Buy and working with lots of manufacturers, it has one of the widest-ranging catalogs of trade-in compatible phones out there. We're estimating that you can save up to $680 off of the 512GB version of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, bringing its price down to $1,340 from $2,020, and come out with a $300 Best Buy e-Gift Card. Tap the button below to go check out the phone and deal yourself, or keep reading to see why we like the phone and how you can maximize your savings.

Why you should pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 from Best Buy
First things first, let's establish that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is the phone you want. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is the latest in the very popular series of Samsung folding phones. In fact, its predecessor and 5th iteration of the series, is sitting at the top of our list of the best folding phones. Preorders for the Fold 6 opened up at the same time as Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 preorders. With two gorgeous AMOLED screens, smooth transitions of 120Hz, and a slimmer-than-expected profile, there's no reason to think that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 won't follow in the 5's legacy. And, based on what we're seeing from an early hands-on Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 peek, we can only confirm that we like what we see. Our reviewer particularly praised the toughness of the phone, which has an aluminum "armor" on the exterior and strong Gorilla Glass screens. This is a phone that will likely stay with you for the long term if you're the type to not change phones but once in a few years.
