The Samsung Galaxy S24+ may not be the headline grabber from the S24 family, but only lacks a few high-end features, and doesn’t quite cost a fortune. Packing a punch with its powerful processor, versatile cameras, and especially that gorgeous 6.7-inch display, it deserves the protection that a rugged case can provide.



While its Gorilla Glass Victus 2 strikes an impressive balance of structural durability and scratch resistance, an extra protective layer can only help. Of the wide variety available, a few stand out due to manufacturer consistency, adhesive quality, extended coverage, and specific upgrades like glare resistance and a privacy filter. And even though you’ll pay a little more for a premium screen protector, the price difference really isn’t that much.

    Spigen’s “EZ Fit” screen protector lives up to its name by providing a clever installation tool that guarantees precise alignment and a smooth, bubble-free experience. The protector is constructed from 9H tempered glass, which offers protection against scratches and cracks. Additionally, it features an oleophobic coating that makes it resistant to smudges and fingerprints, so your screen will always be clear.

    Whitestone Dome’s patented UV-curing process uses a liquid adhesive, rather than the pre-applied glue that most alternatives do, including Whitestone’s own cheaper EA lineup. While it costs a little more and does add a degree of difficulty to the installation, it also gives you time to ensure a perfect, bubble-free, connection, and results in the strongest screen protector bond on the market.

The 9H scratch resistance offers essential protection against everyday wear and tear, while the 0.16mm thickness ensures compatibility with most cases. Plus, you get three tempered glass screen protectors in one pack, ensuring you always have backups on hand.

    Unlike most competitors, the ArmorSuit MilitaryShield Max extends all the way to the S24+’s corners, making it a great choice if you don’t use a case. The flexible TPU material makes it easy to get bubbles out during installation, and heals minor scratches over time due to its thermoplastic nature. While TPU film isn’t everybody’s cup of tea, it does add a good measure of protection, with minimal glare.

    We like the Whitestone Dome screen protector because the company has proven to be a leader in producing top-quality tempered glass screen protectors, and it has one for the Galaxy S24+. With all the necessary accouterments included, the UV-cured adhesive ensures that the 9H hardness glass is perfectly aligned and won’t slip over time, your phone’s screen will be well protected!

    AACL’s PET-based Hybrid Film is the perfect solution to keep the screen of your Galaxy S24+ free from any blemishes while also working seamlessly with the in-display fingerprint sensor. You must re-register your fingerprints after installing the screen protector but don’t worry; the included alignment tool makes the process a breeze. Plus, each pack comes with four PET films, so you’ll have replacements when you need them.

    MagGlass Matte Screen Protector for Galaxy S24+

    MagGlass offers a variety of screen protectors, including a unique matte-surfaced tempered glass screen protector that reduces glare and improves readability. An added bonus is that the screen protector comes with an installation frame for easy, one-touch installation, making it almost impossible to mess up.

    A polarized screen protector like the Ringke Easy Slide Privacy makes it hard for prying eyes to spy on potentially sensitive information by obscuring the device’s view from an angle. This lineup from a popular low-profile case manufacturer performs well at its view-blocking duties, without hurting display quality too much or making application too difficult.


Choosing the perfect screen protection

Selecting the perfect guardian for your Galaxy S24+ display doesn’t have to be a head-scratcher. Tempered glass offers the smoothest experience and peak scratch resistance, plastic prevents scratches while breaking a little less easily, and thermoplastic TPU film adds a soft-touch feel and mild level of impact resistance. For privacy concerns in public places, you can opt for shields that block side-angle views, and a few manufacturers make matte screen protectors to minimize glare.

The most important thing about your screen protector — regardless of which one you choose — is that it fits properly and is installed correctly. No one benefits from an ill-fitting screen protector, so we suggest a screen protector with installation guides.

‘9H hardness’ is meaningless for glass screen protectors

Why you shouldn’t care about the industry’s favorite buzzword

The best screen protectors for Galaxy S24+

Spigen has always been one of our favorite brands to recommend because their screen protectors are well-made and very easy to install. The Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit boasts excellent scratch protection, case-friendliness, and a convenient two-pack, making it an easy recommendation for most users.


If you want the absolute best quality glass and adhesion, get the Whitestone Dome UV. Its specialty liquid adhesive sticks better than anything else, and gives you time to adjust the fit while you’re putting it on. It does take a little more care and attention to detail to get just right, though. On the other hand, we also highly recommend Whitestone Dome’s EA screen protector, as it uses the same top-quality materials, but switches out the tricky LOCA glue for a more typical installation experience.

We highlighted a particular version of ArmorSuit’s MilitaryShield, the Max, because it offers complete, edge-to-edge coverage, compared to most screen protectors that leave a millimeter uncovered to accommodate cases. While some cases will fit over the ArmorSuit Max, it’s more intended for people who are brave enough to show off their S24+ without a case. Its ability to repair itself over time or with mild heat, like from a hair dryer, makes it an especially interesting choice.


If you want to go the economical route, Supershieldz’ tempered glass costs as little as anything, as does AACL’s hybrid PET film, which resists cracking a little better than glass. Finally, we included our favorite privacy and anti-glare screen protectors, but be forewarned that these features tend to affect display quality slightly, regardless of the phone.
