When I first saw Glassie's custom screen protectors, I was immediately fascinated, as it was the first product of its kind that I had ever seen.

Is the text on top of the screen protector or underneath? Are the designs on the screen 3D? How can I accurately see something on my screen when the lights are on? These were some of the questions I asked myself before actually applying one of Glassie’s screen protectors to my iPhone 11 Pro Max. After about 5 minutes, all the details became clear.

I don’t know if Glassie is actually the world’s first personalized screen protector as the company claims, but I have definitely never seen a screen protector with designs on it. This product definitely has potential.

Glassie was co-founded by Neels Visser and Christian Sagert, who officially launched their company on January 25. The duo created a phantom printing technique that allows them to apply custom text or artwork to premium double-strength tempered glass screen protectors that are visible when your phone is locked, but disappear once your screen is turned on.
