“Our smartphones go everywhere we do, but that sometimes entails a slip from your hand while on a call, or an unanticipated ride on the roof of your car,” said Brad Bell, senior vice president, global marketing for InvisibleShield. “Our Glass Elite VisionGuard+ for the all-new Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL smartphones now kills 99.99 percent of harmful bacteria found on device screens and protects against the harmful effects of exposure to high-energy visible blue light without changing the screen’s colors.”
InvisibleShield’s Glass Elite solutions for the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are the brand’s strongest screen protectors to date and are 4x stronger than traditional glass1. Ion exchange technology increases surface compression for improved strength and scratch-resistance. And unique to InvisibleShield, ClearPrint™ technology incorporates an oleophilic treatment to disperse oils which makes fingerprints virtually invisible when the phone’s screen is turned on2.
Glass Elite VisionGuard+ is a quadruple threat, providing best-in-class protection against impact and fingerprints, while also protecting from harmful blue light and surface bacteria, making it the ultimate in device screen protection. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a large percentage of disease outbreaks are spread by contaminated hands3. With consumers taking their devices everywhere they go and flu season right around the corner, it is crucial now more than ever to protect ourselves against the germs that can accumulate on our devices. Glass Elite VisionGuard+ features anti-microbial technology which kills 99.99 percent of harmful bacteria found on device screens4. Anti-microbial properties are infused in the glass, so they won’t wear away over time. An Eyesafe® technology layer filters harmful HEV blue light without distorting the device display, and ClearPrint™ technology disperses fingerprint oils for a solution that looks as good as it feels.
Glass Elite VisionGuard includes Eyesafe technology, and a protective layer that blocks HEV blue light which has been shown to contribute to digital eye strain5. The Eyesafe layer filters blue light without affecting the display’s color.
Glass Elite features ion exchange technology which increases the surface tension of the glass making it stronger and more scratch resistant. Glass Elite is the foundation of InvisibleShield’s latest screen protectors for Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4XL and is the brand’s strongest solution to date.
