Smartphones are getting bigger, but our thumbs aren’t getting any longer for convenient reach. They will, perhaps many generations after, which we obviously don’t have the luxury of time to wait for that evolution to occur and besides, can you imagine humans with thumbs that are as long as the index finger? Ewww… gross and I don’t even want to visualize that. Anyways, as far as iPhone is concerned, you can rely on software to “bring down” the top momentarily for access or extend your thumb with a fake thumb, or you could go with a glass screen protector that offers invisible buttons on either side of your iPhone 6/6 Plus Home button, such as the Hyper Glass Screen Protector, that replicates the functions of the top buttons.
When touched, the invisible touch points transmit an electric current to the top left or right of the screen which will trigger whatever button that’s there, thereby saving you from straining your thumb to touch the ‘back’, ‘close’ or whatever functions that are located at the top corners of the device. This smart touch technology will play well with most used and popular apps, including Facebook, Gmail, Google Maps, Instagram, Mail, Chrome, Snapchat, Twitter, Uber – just to name a few, and is totally compatible with new iPhone’s 3D Touch feature.
As a glass protector it measures a scant .33 mm thin, has curved edges (2.5D, if you want to get technical) to prevent snagging and fiber collection, and is made from high quality Japanese Asahi Glass. And like any good screen protector, it too has oil-resistant and anti-glare properties. The Hyper Glass Smart Screen Protector was freshly launched this week and is available as we speak for $44.90 a pop. Keep going for a video to see the Hyper Glass in action.
