Astropad's 'Fresh Coat' Screen Protector Cuts iPhone Reflections by 75% Without Color Loss

Astropad today announced the launch of Fresh Coat, a new anti-reflective screen protector that's designed to make the iPhone easier to see outdoors and under bright lights.





Fresh Coat is a glass screen protector that cuts down on up to 75 percent of reflections while preserving color accuracy.



We were able to try out Fresh Coat ahead of launch, and can confirm that it does indeed cut down on reflections without impacting the ‌iPhone‌'s color or display visibility, with no sign of haze. Astropad includes a tray that ensures a precise alignment and makes applying the screen protector foolproof, and it comes with an app clip that walks you through the installation process.



Astropad uses a five-layer system for Fresh Coat, including a flexible bonding layer to cushion drops, a dust barrier to protect from debris, "armorine" tempered glass for screen protection, an oleophobic and hydrophobic coating, and finally, the anti-reflective coating. The entire package is 0.6mm thick.





The same type of anti-reflective technology is rumored to be coming to the iPhone 17 Pro models, and now the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro can get it too. Fresh Coat will also benefit the iPhone 17 models, providing extra reflection reduction. In fact, Astropad says that standard screen protectors will cancel out Apple's antireflective coating, but Fresh Coat will preserve it.



Fresh Coat is priced at $27.99, which includes a 20 percent launch discount. The screen protector is available now from the Astropad website for the &zwnj;iPhone 15&zwnj; Pro, &zwnj;iPhone 15&zwnj; Pro Max, &zwnj;iPhone 16 Pro&zwnj;, and &zwnj;iPhone 16 Pro&zwnj; Max. An &zwnj;iPhone 17&zwnj; version is also available for pre-order.<div class="linkback">Tag: Astropad</div>
