Hey

As the title will explain i have a problem with lifting screen protectors! The device i have is an LG Google Nexus 5.

The main issue is when i put on ym TPU case. Every time i put the case on it lifts the screen protector. I had a pack of three screen protector and was on my second one when it was damaged by my TPU case. I tried to rectify the problem by cutting the third and final protector so the case wont catch the sides of it, instead i ended up destroying it and have no more left. Before i try looking for more screen protectors i would like to know whether you guys have a solution or have has this problem before. Also would having a thicker protector like tempered glass help?

Thanks hope you can help!
 
A thinner protector and a case with a less stiff lip would help.

I'm using the i-Blason case and their screen protector on one of my phones and have no problem. Just make sure you burnish the edges down really well once it's installed (use the cloth and rub all along the edges for about 5 minutes, applying pressure), then don't put the case on for about 48 hours. Also make sure there's absolutely no dust when you apply the protector - use tape to lift all the dust off the screen. (One tiny speck of dust will give you a bubble, one speck of dust along an edge will weaken the bond at tht point, making the protector lift when you put the case on.)
