iPhone 16 Pro Screen Protectors
iPhone 16 Pro owners have one job to get right: buy a protector cut for this exact model, not for the family. The cutouts, the sensor housing and the curve of the glass all change between siblings in the same range, and a protector that is 2mm out will lift at a corner within a fortnight.

Protecting more than the screen?

For the iPhone 16 Pro the sensible shortlist is tempered glass and privacy. Below are the options currently sold into the UK, grouped so you can see the difference between a £6 three-pack and a £30 single protector before you commit.
What to check before you buy for the iPhone 16 Pro
Face ID / front sensor array
The cutout must clear the sensor housing. A protector that overlaps it can slow or break face unlock, so avoid trimmed-down universal sheets.
Dynamic Island
Look for a protector with a clean, correctly-sized cutout. Cheap ones leave a visible adhesive ring around the island that catches the light.
iPhone 16 Pro screen protectors — your questions
What size is the iPhone 16 Pro screen?
The iPhone 16 Pro has a 6.3-inch display. That figure is the diagonal measurement, so it doesn't on its own tell you a protector will fit, two devices with the same diagonal can have different corner radii and cutouts. Always buy one listed for the iPhone 16 Pro by name.
Which type of screen protector is best for the iPhone 16 Pro?
Tempered glass is the default choice for the iPhone 16 Pro. The default choice. Rigid, glass-clear, absorbs impact by sacrificing itself.
Worth knowing before you buy: can shatter on a hard corner drop; adds noticeable thickness on curved screens.
How much should I spend on a iPhone 16 Pro screen protector?
Somewhere between £8 and £25 covers almost everyone. Under about £8 you're usually buying glass with no oleophobic coating, which looks fine for a week and then smears permanently.
Above £25 you're paying for a warranty, a better applicator, or a speciality finish like privacy or paper-feel. Those are real benefits, but they're refinements. The jump in protection from nothing to a £10 protector is far larger than the jump from £10 to £30.
Will a screen protector fit the iPhone 16 Pro with a case on?
Usually, if you buy one described as case-friendly. Those stop fractionally short of the screen edge so a case lip can sit over the top without catching and peeling it.
Full-coverage and edge-to-edge designs look better but can foul thicker cases. If you already own the case, fit the protector first, then check the case clips down flush before you commit to a second one.
