Reasons to Ditch the Screen Protector on Your OtterBox Defender, Unicorn Beetle Pro, or other similar cases
Fingerprint recognition issues
Some users have reported that the built-in screen protector can interfere with in-display fingerprint scanners, making it difficult for the phone to register their touch. It’s like trying to get into a fancy club with a fake ID, you might get in eventually, but it’s going to be a hassle. But don’t worry, ditching that built-in screen protector is like getting a VIP pass, it will give you the freedom to unlock your phone without any hassle and make it recognize your fingerprints again.
Easily Get Scratches
The built-in screen protector on your OtterBox Defender or UB Pro may start to look like a scratching post for your cat over time. And let’s be real, it’s not the sturdiest keeper of your phone’s display out there, it’s more like a flimsy piece of plastic. Still, it can’t beat quality dedicated tempered glass!
Sensitivity issues
Ah, the built-in screen protector of your go-to tough cases. It’s like a barrier between you and your true love (aka your phone). Same as trying to text your crush with mittens on, it just doesn’t work. Some users have reported that the built-in screen protector interferes with the touch screen’s sensitivity, making it harder to navigate and use their phone. But don’t worry, ditching that built-in screen protector will free you from the shackles of a less-than-responsive touch screen and make your phone feel brand new again.
Built-in screen protectors may gather dust around the camera lens
They’re like a dust magnet. Have you ever noticed how your camera lens gets all foggy and dirty, and you can’t take that perfect portrait picture you wanted? That’s probably because of the dust that gathers around the camera lens, thanks to the camera hole cutout on the screen protector. So when you try to take a selfie picture with the sunset in the background, instead of your portrait with a beautiful orange and pink sky, you get a blurry mess of dust particles.
Dulls the display
Have you noticed that the display quality on your OtterBox Defender or Poetic Revolution looks a tad dull and not as crisp with the built-in screen protector? But don’t worry, getting rid of that flimsy built-in screen protector will let you enjoy a bright and vibrant display again.
Redundant Protection: Already have tempered glass?
If you already have a tempered glass protector on your device, you may not need the built-in screen protector that comes with your favorite tough cases. In this case, two is too much of a good thing and seems like overkill, don’t you think? So, you might want to ditch that built-in screen protector and enjoy the protection of a single-tempered glass protector.
Alright, alright, so you’re over the built-in screen protector on your Unicorn Beetle Pro case and you wanna remove that pesky built-in screen protector from your Unicorn Beetle Pro case, huh? Don’t worry, it’s not as hard as it seems.
The Hairdryer Hack for Removing the Built-in Protector
Removing the built-in screen protector from your favorite tough case is like getting rid of a stubborn sticker, all you need is that trusty hair dryer. Once you’ve taken the case off your phone, separate the frame where the screen protector is attached. Give it a good blast of heat with the hair dryer. This will soften the adhesive and make it easier to peel off. Try to gently push the screen protector away from the frame to see if it separates. If it’s still sticking, give it another blast of heat and try again. Once it’s finally separated, use a plastic card or something similar to clean away any leftover adhesive from the frame.
Great job! You’ve managed to remove that pesky built-in screen protector…or maybe not. Don’t worry, it can be tricky to get rid of those stubborn things. But don’t fret, we’ve got a tried and true solution for you. So, what are you waiting for? Check out the next step for an easier trick to remove the screen protector.
Drowning Your Screen Protector Woes: How to Remove it With Warm Water
Alright, here’s my personal favorite method for getting rid of that built-in screen protector: warm water. First, take off the front frame of the case where the screen protector is attached. Get a plate, a tray, a bowl…anything deep enough to fit the frame, and then fill it with warm water. Careful not to be too hot though, to prevent the frame from getting deformed.
Soak the frame in warm water for a minute or so, it will make the adhesive softer and easier to remove.
Then start peeling it off from a corner and work your way around. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to remove the whole thing in one go, including the adhesives. If there’s any leftover adhesive, just scrape it off with a plastic card or something similar. Easy as pie!
