Update after having for a few daystl;dr -Dimensions area exactly the same as my Tmobile A71 5g1 centimeter of the edge all around is not flushNot an issue with the case I have (Uploaded Case Image)Comes with 2, price mitigates the negative aspect of the protector not laying flatInstallation very easy, line up the camera slot and square it up and you're good.Cons-Cases that intrude on glass area might not work with this (Possibly Otterboxes, compare yours to my Uploaded Case Image)With no case at all you will not be happy -> IF <- it doesn't lay flush; you will lose it or break it quickly.Edges will accumulate dust eventually. Will it happen before I break the protector? Don't care too much.Possible sensitivity issues on the very edges over time. I have not noticed over the past week I've had it on.Edges being exposed make them more fragile than if they were flush with the phone, expect the edges to crack sooner.Overall - Super long review for a screen protector, but I wanted to find the one I bought at the store which was perfect, but looks like as the phone gets older you will have to optimize your expectations, for the price I don't care that it isn't flush, I care that it breaks instead of my screen.Still leaving 5 star review even with what some would consider negative aspects. Manage your expectations or go spend 3 times as much for one that lays flat.For the money you spend this will protect your phone (twice since it comes with 2). I do feel that maybe there are 2 different sizes of A71 5gs and these may not lay flat on the edges of your phone, it does not on mine, all around the edge there is about a centimeter maybe 1.5 centimeter of the edge that is lifted off the phone.I haven't had any issues pulling the menu down from top, and I don't use the sidebar that often, can't tell if the sensitivity to use those are affected, but I am able to use my thumbprint scanner and screen normal as before.If you have a case with a raised front lip that doesn't intrude onto the glass of the phone like the last photo I have attached (Uploaded Case Image), this protector would be worth your money because even if it doesn't lay flush, your protector won't let you clip under the lip of the nonflush protector and pull it off unless you plug it into a fat plastic usb c charger like a nintendo switch one.If you have a case like an otterbox with plastic that intrudes the area of the glass of the A71, this screen protector will not give you good results.
