iphone 16 screen protector with camera cutout

Iphone 16 with screen protector takes terrible selfies with front facing camera. I have searched the internet looking for a screen protector with a camera cutout and no luck. Where can I get a screen protector with a camera cutout or does someone have another suggestion?

Ailun, is what I'd consider an OK quality lower cost screen protector. But there are certainly better protectors out there. This year, I went with ESR Corning Glass for my iPhone and it's exceptional. But I still maintain that a screen protector itself should not degrade selfie cam photos. Have you tried taking a selfie without your screen protector? I'd be surprised if it turned out demonstrably better.

I have tried about every screen protector made, Low end to expense—always a disappointment. No more.



I have not used a screen protector for a decade+ now, and not one broken screen...no issues.


Maybe you do not really need it if you have issues...your results may vary.



A good case yes, screen protector no.


Still have issues—

A high quality screen protector should NOT cause issues with the selfie camera on an iPhone 16. What brand of screen protector are you using on your iPhone?
