The iPhone 8 Plus has a beautiful, big screen, and if you went through the trouble of buying it, chances are you want to keep that screen in pristine condition. One of the best ways to avoid scratches and scuffs on your display is to invest in a screen protector. Remember, the iPhone 8 Plus screen size is the same as the iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6 Plus, and iPhone 6s Plus, so the screen protectors are interchangeable. Here are our favorite tempered glass screen protectors for your iPhone 8 Plus!

Our pick

Spigen tempered glass screen protector

Staff Favorite

Spigen’s tempered glass screen protector is covered in an oleophobic coating to protect the screen protector from getting covered with fingerprints. Plus, if you typically use a case that has a lip around the front of the phone, Spigen’s screen protector is just a tad smaller than the front glass. So, it’s compatible with all cases. The auto-alignment kit makes installation foolproof.

Remember the days of cell phones before the iPhone came out in 2007? Every single cellular device was distinctive with its own unique form factor, though there was never quite anything that would be quite as ”lit” as the RAZR. Then the iPhone came out in 2007, and there was a shift in the cellular world: everything started to become a slab of glass with a touch screen and a main button or two. Ever since then, all smartphones have looked similar, with the Samsung Galaxy Fold finally breaking the mold.

History is now repeating itself, as the AirPods have created what I’m calling, ”AirPods effect,” which is sweeping the industry of wireless earbuds.

Ah, February. The month of Valentine’s Day. And is there really a better way to spend it than with your old pal Samuel L. Jackson?

He’s back in the latest installment of Shaft on HBO. And on Netflix, we’ve got the second season of Altered Carbon, the follow-up to To All The Boys — and every Police Academy movie ever made. (Hope you were sitting down for that one.)

Amazon’s offering up its new series *Hunters.

What’s new on Netflix in February 2020

Look, maybe you’re excited about the second season of To All The Boys. The Netflix Original series was quite the hit its first go-around, and it only makes sense that we get the follow-up — dubbed PS I Love You — just ahead of Valentine’s Day.

But we’d be remiss in not telling you that every single Police Academy movie is on Netflix this February. From the original (and hilarious) installment, to the sequel Their First Assignment (you’ll never look at a candy bar the same way again) …

The Super Bowl airs on Sunday, February 2, starting at 6:30 PM ET, and it’s set to be the big television event of the night, with the San Francisco 49ers facing off against the Kansas City Chiefs. But if football isn’t your thing, or you don’t care because your favorite team isn’t in it, there is plenty of alternative programming for you to check out.

From a game full of puppies to new episodes of cable dramas, here’s are five things you can watch instead of the Super Bowl LIV.

The Puppy Bowl
Breaking Bad – Season 3
Catch Me If You Can
Futurama
The Outsider

Animal Planet, 3:00 PM ET

The Puppy Bowl XVI

Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl is perhaps the best piece of counter-programming to the Super Bowl every year. Once again, see Team Fluff and Team Ruff face off in a battle of cuteness, fur, and, inevitably, leaking on the field. Puppy Bowl XVI originally airs at 3PM ET, but expect it to repeat through the day, including during the big game.

How to watch the Puppy Bowl if you’ve cu…
