Scratches and cracks – two things that you certainly don’t want to see on the screen of your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus. While the iPhone 7 family comes with the toughest screens Apple has ever made (for a phone), they’re certainly not invincible, and, sooner or later, you’re bound to see them damaged in one way or another. But this is where screen protectors come in.
If you’re on the hunt for a screen protector to keep your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus safe, we’ve got some of the best options presented below. We’ve included models for all budgets (both glass and plastic ones), in alphabetical order. Except for one model, all the screen protectors seen here are compatible with most cases – should you need full, all-around protection for your iPhone.
Belkin ScreenForce InvisiGlass screen protector
Pros
- Very thin, yet durable glass sheet
- Anti-fingerprint coating
- Best overall protection
- Lifetime warranty
Cons
- Expensive
- Only covers the flat portion of the screen
The ScreenForce InvisiGlass protector from Belkin is ultra-thin (0.2 mm), thus preserving your touchscreen’s sensitivity and optical clarity. Despite its thinness, the ScreenForce InvisiGlass is great at protecting the display against shatters, scratches, and scuffs, thanks to its 3-layer flexible nature. However, this protector does not fully cover the slightly curved portions of the iPhone 7’s screen (towards the edges).

Pros
- Covers round edges and corners
- Lifetime warranty
Cons
- Not glass, you may not like the texture
- Attracts fingerprints
- May not be compatible with protective cases
Designed to fully cover the screen of your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus (including the round edges and corners), the IQ Shield Liquid Shield protector is comprised of 4 layers: an anti-yellowing UV coating, a TPU (thermoplastic polyreuthane) layer for elasticity and transparency, a tough protective liner, and an adhesive bottom layer. This mix will certainly keep scratches away from your screen.
