OnePlus might have ditched its trademark “Sandstone” finish in favor of a metal design in the OnePlus 3 but that doesn’t make the device is any bit less beautiful. Along with the beautiful design, the device is a powerhouse when it comes the specs, what with a brilliant 16 MP rear, 8 MP front camera, the powerful Snapdragon 820 processor and whopping 6 gigs of RAM. Also, the flagship features a beautiful 5.5-inch 1080p Optic AMOLED display with Gorilla Glass 4, which is pretty sturdy but we wouldn’t bet our money on it not breaking with a hard fall. Thus, you are better off applying a screen guard/protector on your OnePlus 3. However, there’s a lot of confusion when it comes to buying a screen protector and that’s the reason we, as always, are here to help. So, without further ado, here are the 8 best OnePlus 3 screen protectors to buy:
1. Official Tempered Glass Screen Protector
OnePlus offers a tempered glass screen protector for the OnePlus 3 on its official website. The protector adds an extra layer of oleophobic & hydrophobic coating, so that you can easily wipe away any dust, fingerprints and any liquid. It also provides great protection against scratches and drops, so you can just install the protector on your OnePlus 3 display and use it without any worries.

2. IQShield Matte Full Coverage Screen Protector
We especially like IQShield’s matte screen protector for the OnePlus 3 because it covers up most of the front, plus we love the matte touch. The screen guard is anti-glare, so it won’t affect your experience in direct sunlight. It also features a coating to keep off smudges, fingerprints and dust. Moreover, you get precise fitment and accurate cut-outs and you can apply it via the “wet application” method, so the installation should be bubble-free and easy.
IQ Shield also offers free replacements if you are not satisfied with the product, so there’s that as well. The package includes the screen protector, cleaning cloth & liquid and a bubble squeezer.

3. Pleson Edge to Edge Screen Protector
The OnePlus 3 features a curve at the edges of the display, which makes the swipe gestures on the display a lot more polished. However, that’s also the reason why most screen protectors don’t cover the display totally. Well, that’s where the Pleson Edge to Edge screen protector shines. As you might have guessed, the Pleson screen guard covers even the curved edges of the OnePlus 3 display.
Along with that, the PET screen protector is pretty flexible & tough and it’s also resistant to smudges, dirt, fingerprints and oil. Moreover, it features a satin-like feel when you touch it, so the display feels even more fluid than it is. The package includes 3 screen protectors, alcohol prep pad, squeeze card, dust removal time, installation manual and lifetime replacement warranty card.

4. Yootech Tempered Glass Full Coverage Screen Protector
The Yootech screen protector for the OnePlus 3 brings great sturdiness along with full edge to edge coverage. The tempered glass here is 9H strong hardness, which means it’s extremely hard-coated and scratch resistant. The screen protector also features Black bezels, which should go well with the AMOLED display’s deep Blacks. The package includes the screen protector, alcohol prep pad, dust removal tape and the lifetime replacement warranty card.

5. AquaShield Ultra Clear Screen Protector
You should get the AquaShield screen protector for the OnePlus 3, if you want a screen protector so clear that you wouldn’t even notice it’s there. While the screen protector might be ultra clear, it still offers protection from scratches and dents. It’s also edge to edge, however it lacks full coverage. Other features of the screen protector include UV-resistant filter for a better viewing experience and matte finish. You can use the wet-install method to apply it on your OnePlus 3 with ease and precision.

6. Mr Shield Anti-Spy Screen Protector
We hate it when somebody spies on our smartphone display and if you hate it too, you should check out Mr Shield’s anti-spy screen protector for the OnePlus 3. The screen guard has been designed with a filter that makes sure that anybody at an angle of 30 degrees will not be able to view the contents of your OnePlus 3’s display. Mr Shield recommends maximum brightness to get the best results.
Along with the privacy, the screen protector offers 4H anti-scratch and scruff resistance. You get two anti spy protectors along with instructions, cleaning cloth, dust collector, scratching card and removing tapes in the package.

Moreover, the matte screen protector features a smooth satin texture for a better touch experience.
