I asked them if they have any certification of real corning glass. I think the GPEL isn't glass. Feels like plastic. I think Zagg is better. I applied a Carbon Fiber skin on the back of phone.

I read glass is your trade, do this look or feel like glass? I notice two dents on both side and maybe an inch away from the edge. Maybe thin Plexi-like glass.

Also, they may have partnership with Corning, but it doesn't mean this particular screen protector is corning glass.

It's just a screen protector guys who cares if it's Corning glass or not? It's a 20 dollar protection. As long as it feels good and premium then it's fine by me. Sending emails to Corning and etc is just overkill IMO
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] :
Why should anyone be allowed to engage in false advertising, if that's the case? It's the best screen protector currently out, imo, but that still doesn't excuse false advertising if that is true (not saying I believe it is).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
I recived my GPEL yesterday to Sweden. In all honesty I am not impressed at all.

I have issues with adhering (better than ebay one), terrible touch sensitivity (cheap ebay one was better sensitivity), clicking noise and that mist look beneath the glass. It also feels like the cheap ebay one, plasticy. I had to press really hard on the screen to be able to write etc.. Couldn't stand it and I had to take it off after about 15 hours trying to accept it and hoping the protector to adhere better.

I will send them a mail about this. Furthermore I have not recived any more answer from Flipacase since my last respond to them, earlier they were fast but not now.. ?

As much as people have enjoyed their glass protectors from GPEL, 25 Us dollars for a screen protector that feels cheap is such a rip off. Premium feeling is a personally taste, I guess; but I don't think I can consider this premium.

That's the vibe I'm getting from early users of GPEL. So I won't waste any money on a TGSP right now, will just wait for ZAGG or another respected company to release theirs.

And I'm waiting for their next generation product to see if it is an improvement. If not, I'll ask for a refund.

As I thought, no Gorillas in GPEL/Flipacase. I thought my protector felt plasticy. Anyhow I just want a decent protector on my screen. I really dont care if it is real gorilla glass or not. I cant stand those standard protectors.

Good to know about their scaming about being Gorilla glass tough.

I got response from GPEL to whom I sent the exact same text as posted here about my issues. As all the others here I will recive a new one from the upgraded batch coming in to them in about 2 weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] asdf916:
Gahhhh. I JUST bought it this morning! Hope they don't send the same stuff to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
Hopefully your unit will work better than mine. It seems mine was defective. But you shouldn't have a reason to worry. If you contact them in 1-2 weeks about any issues they should send you one from the revised batch aswell.

I haven't asked yet. I will send a reply to them asking about that.

Here is the full answer I got to my message that I sent with my problems listed.

"Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you so much for your inquiry and I am glad to assist you today.

First of all, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.

We’re aware that some units from our current shipment for Galaxy S7 Edge tempered glass screen protector have been having issues you described, however if you’re experiencing a lot then it’s very likely defective.

Our new batch that is going to be dispatched within 1-2 weeks will have most of the issues solved.

We will be more than happy to send you a free replacement unit once the units from new batch are available. Completely free of charge.

Would you be able to contact us back in 1-2 weeks for your free replacement unit?

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience once again.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon."

I emailed corning just a little bit ago, asking if the Corning Accessorie glass is used with GPEL. Don't call me a hater, I just want to know the truth, and why they are charging a premium price of 25 for weak material that should maybe cost 5 bucks the most.

GPEL is definitely not an "Established Brand"

That's funny, I went to the Korean gpel website and they have just launched it. Their banner says "We're coming to Korea because we did so well in the States." It is a Korean company but it is definitely NOT an established brand in Korea. They have only just started selling. When a company straight up lies, I got a big problem with that.

on a more interesting note however, the TGSP they sell in Korea is different from the one they sell here... hmm....

I'm new and I guess I can't put on links

you can check at gpelstore dot co dot kr

type s7 edge on the search and you can see the model they sell in Korea.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] SEVENEDGE:
Yeah, just be honest about your stuff. a lie will only produce further discrepancy down the future and will taint your image. Outside of politics in the world, lying will hurt your down the road. you can fool some people, but you can't fool them all. and for those who enjoy their screen protector, i'd ask for a refund because of fraud or false advertisement; they will still let you keep the product. it probably cost them less than a buck anyway.

Like the Samsung Clear case for example. Probably a 1 dollar product, but Samsung Stamped, and people will flock to buy it and enjoy it just because it is samsung lol. I guess same applies to junk material like GPEL. Sounds good, but really barely good for some, no good for others.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
Yes, but as Flipacase are stating. Same glass as GPEL but they will have a cutout on theirs for the Samsung logo aswell.

Moreover, still no answer from Flipacase but from GPEL. I add my text as well as their reply:

Q: Hi,

Thanks for your standard copypaste answer lol ;)

Can you tell what kind of improvements will be done to the new batch? Also do you have any comments on the company called Flipacase (amazon uk) selling more or less the same glass stating that it is the same glass as you use?

Moreover, what about the differences between GPEL American website vs the Korean? The pictures for the tempered glass are very differetn?

I am debating myself wether it is really worth waiting for your new batch, unfortunately all the tempered glass protectors for s7 edge seems crappy.

Regards"

A: Dear Valued Customer

Thank you so much for your inquiry and I am glad to assist you again.

Our new batch will basically have better touch sensitivity, reduce haze issue, improve on glues and glass durability.

We really appreciate for reporting "Flipcase". We will immediately report to Amazon and the seller for infringing our copyrights. Do you have any evidence that Flipcase stated they are selling same glass as we do?

GPELSTORE is a subsidiary company of Green Power Electronics. Our headquarters focuses only on offline mass distribution to Tier 1 carriers throughout the world, while we, GPELSTORE, focuses to build retail consumer brand.

Please let us know if you would like to receive full refund for your order instead of receiving the replacement unit.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.

You have a great weekend.

Mark S."

So am I the only one not having any adhesive and lifting issues from the GPEL TGSP? Everyone else's is no good?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Sahi12:
It seems so.. I have a very thin ultra flexible clear TPU case, that I got as a gift with a cheap TGSP I bought from Ebay, and not even that case is working for me.

I tried to heat the adhesive sides some with a hairdryer meanwhile the glass was still on the phone but no luck. I am thinking about trying again but with some heat strait to the adhesive itself before applying the glass protector.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] tsells:
I also have virtually no problems with the Gpel. I'm using the Samsung clear case and there's no problems with the edges. There's a little bit of haze under the protector that comes and goes, but no big deal.

Yeah don't waste $ on gpel's screen protector. It isnt what they claim it to be and why would you trust your phone to be secured based on that.

Thanks for the video. I asked a question on YouTube but can you answer the question again: "Does this have adhesive on the middle of the screen or just the edges?" It looks like in your video that you keep pushing on the middle of the screen like a regular TGSP but if it's like all the rest for the S6E/S7E, that won't do any good!? Thanks again

Hello Mark

We messaged you earlier regarding the delivery of this item. There has been a small delay in receiving this product since we have been extra cautious on the quality checks of this product since in the market there have been many issues with S7 Edge tempered glass screen protectors, so we didn't want to take any risks so made sure the items we are receiving are 100% fit for purpose, we are expected to receive them Tuesday morning and dispatch them immediately on first class post. If you would like to cancel the order please let us know, so we can refund you.
