It looks like this😩

My company provided me with an iPhone SE2 for work usage, and I installed an new RhinoShield TG and exactly like what is shared here I have both sides with the bubble. Eventually I kinda left it overnight, and kepit with the clothes drying clips. It reduced but wasn't perfect. Then my Spigen Thin Fit arrived, but unfortunately it popped the TG off dry.gif.

So I placed an order for another TG, this time is a much cheaper but seller mentioned sourced from same factory in Taiwan making for Hoda. This fitted much better with minor bubble at the edge, what I did again kepit overnight and now its gone yay! Oh regarding the earlier RhinoShield TG that had bubble on the edges, I then placed it on my parent's iPhone 8 and it was fitted correctly, I am starting to think is it my SE2's screen warped or some sort.

I have one Spigen Thin Fit, which doesn't work with these full screen protectors... would the Spigen Air Fit work with one of these full screen protectors? Although phone is company give, but the metal body is kinda slippery, besides I don't use my iPhone naked so not used to it lah.

Searching through the thread I saw this piece of info too...

Browsing youtube. Seems like iPhone 8 tempered glass wouldn't fit the SE 2.

SE 2 has more rounded curve edges.

Good info! This is interesting...I naturally assumed that all accessories for iPhone 8 would fit the SE2 but it looks to be not the case for the tempered glass.

I suspect the SE2 glass isn't flat across, might have a very slight curvature which causes the edges to bubble. And likely only the thinner glass SP is able to conform to the shape. The first RhinoShield is much thicker while the second Hoda OEM is thinner.

Is there a brand for the Hoda OEM? Might be helpful to other owners smile.gif

I have used Hoda TG once, on my wife's Xs this felt similar. My brother using this on his 11 as well, coverage is similar to Xs, not exactly full which is good lah better case compatibility.

My TG had issues on the edge, the seller actually offered to refund but not his fault since the SE2 was having issue with RhinoShield as well but the same TG put on iPhone 8 no problem.

Ya, I used Hoda for my iPhone XR previously and now on my wife's 11 Pro Max, it's great but a bit pricey. I've got zero skills in tempered glass application, so usually I bring it to a shop to get it done for me laugh.gif

You might like this one then, it comes with a template (though I find it easier to install without the template). So far those template for me is usable for those UV activated glue type cause you can fine tune adjust inside before curing.
