I have had my phone for less than two months and need to replace my screen protector for the 2nd time. I'm not hard on my phone number a 52 year old female and take care of it. I have never had to replace it when I had a different brand. Would not recommend this brand at all.

I bought this pure gear 360 for my s20 + registered it the day after they sent an email saying they would send the warranty number. I cracked the screen 2 days later try to contact them multiple emails and claims and got nothing back don't buy it!

Unless!
August 18, 2020

Had the puregear put on my new phone and within a month the screen broke. After many emails and phone calls no help. I don't have the email where I registered the product and am tired of returning emails and getting no satisfaction. This is the worst shape any phone I have ever owned has ever been in. Do yourself a favor and get a trusted otter box!

HD screen protector
August 17, 2020

I purchased the HD screen protector and the first one chipped in about two weeks. I did have It registered and got a replacement In about ten days, but shipping was 11.00 dollars. I put the new one on and it chipped in 4 days. I have not dropped the phone or abused it in any way. This is a waste of money!

The warranty sign up is bogus. Information that is required to register is extremely difficult to find. Even with the receipt, paperwork, phone and box in hand. Obviously they don't want you to sign up for the screen replacement warranty. Shady. What does this say of their actual product? I won't buy their product again just simply for this reason.

TERRIBLE PRODUCT. PAID $65 FOR STEEL 360 SCREEN PROTECTOR AND 8 DAYS LATER THE SCREEN PROTECTOR STARTED CRACKING AND SPLINTERING GLASS AND I NEVER EVEN DROPPED THE PHONE. BOUGHT AT A VICTRA VERIZON STORE AND THEY REFUSED TO HELP. APPARENTLY THEY CANT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR THIS PRODUCT. AND WHEN YOU CONTACT THE PURE GEAR THEY HAVE NO PHONE NUMBER TO CALL AND YOU MUST USE EMAIL. THEY WANT $12 FOR SHIPPING AFTER THEY SELL FAULTY PRODUCTS. FINALLY GOT A HOLD OF SOMEONE WHO SAYS THEY'LL REPLACE IT ONCE FOR FREE BUT I NEED TO PAY THE SHIPPING NEXT TIME. WAITING TO SEE IF I RECEIVE ANOTHER ONE AND IF IT LASTS. BUT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. PIECE OF GARBAGE! VERY DISAPPOINTING WHEN YOU WASTE YOUR MONEY

Had to get a replacement and was charged almost $12 for standard 5-7 Day shipping.

And good luck making a claim for a broken screen on your phone.
I'll never buy any of their products again.

I didn't even drop my phone, it was in my purse and I go to get my phone and I see that the screen protector cracked. How is this going to protect my phone screen if it cracks at the slightest bump? I also scratched the screen protector somehow and it grew into a giant crack that runs across my whole screen. Within the first night of having it it had already cracked. Save your money, don't buy this POS

Did not last long

I bought this screen protector when I purchased my phone with the selling factor of "lifetime warranty" well that means one replacement and you have to pay $12 for shipping. It started chipping after only a couple months of use. Do not recommend.

I purchased an iPhone protector for over 30 dollars Canadian. This was expensive for a screen protector but since it came with a lifetime warranty, I thought it was worth it. Not only the product peeled, chipped as well as cracked within few mi the, when I went on their website to claim warranty, I have to pay close to 12 dollars USD for shipping to get a replacement. I can order a new protector from amazon of a different brand for 11 dollars Canadian. Please don't buy this product. I shally don't write reviews but this seems like a scam to lure people to pay three times the price for an inferior product only so they can charge another round of money so you end up paying 4 times than the original cost!

Warranty claim
July 14, 2020

Well did everything they asked submitted my claim with receipt attached. Never responded. Was within my year time limit also. I would never expect anything from this company their claim to reimburse you is a fallacy.
Find a more reputable company because they are just like most everyone else in it for themselves and their word means absolutely nothing.

Absolutely the worst costumer service I've ever experienced from a website in my life. Left countless emails regarding an order placed 2 weeks ago, and not even a damn response or update. The screen protectors are extremely excellent. The customer service is absolute s**t. They do no give a damn about their customers. Period. Safe yourself from this terrible service and just go into retailers like Verizon. Pathetic.

I purchased a clear case for my phone, I paid for shipping and handling, another screen popped up saying I would get an email with a tracking number once purchased. NOTHING! I emailed them because they have no number! What kind of company has no number? SCAMMERS! I will be reporting this for sure! Don't throw away your money!

Purchased phone and HD glass screen protector Oct. 2019. Screen began cracking in February. Finally so bad I submitted a warranty claim on 5/1/2020. No word from PureGear. Sent an inquiry as to status on 6/3/2020. Still no word. They have my $11 shipping fee and have never sent a replacement screen.

Update: An update to my original review. I eventually heard from PureGear and they did send a replacement screen. Prior to receiving the replacement, Verizon put a new screen protector on my phone, a Samsung S10+. It cracked within a few weeks. When the warranty replacement arrived, Verizon installed that one for me. It cracked within a month. So my original rating of 1 star stands. Customer service eventually came thru but the product does not hold up on my model of phone.
