Spigen SGP has introduced its Glas.t screen protector for the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S. Unlike traditional screen protectors, the Glas.t is made from oleophobic coated, chemically treated glass, which attaches using a strong silicone adhesive. According to the company, no gap is left between the LCD and the Glas.t when installed, and thus the touch screen sensitivity is supposedly unaffected. The material is also said to offer a hardness of 8-9H, or three times stronger than PET film. Spigen SGP’s Glas.t screen protector for the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S is available now and sells for $28; for more information, see our First Look article.

Ivyskin did something along these lines a long time ago. I’d be weary of a piece of glass sticking to the glass front of the phone - and what about the back? That’s the weaker glass that needs protection. Ivyskin Quattro4 is a great product, recommended over this, even if their customer service sucks!
