For this week we have teamed up with Astropad to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win an iPhone 17 and one of Astropad’s Fresh Coat anti-reflective films.
Fresh Coat is a new kind of screen protector designed by Astropad with an optical grade anti-reflective coating that reduces glare and provides a better viewing experience on iPhone. The technology Astropad uses reduces reflections by 75 percent while improving contrast and maintaining vivid colors. Unlike other anti-reflective screen protectors on the market, Fresh Coat does not add fog or distortion.
Priced at $30, the Fresh Coat is made of scratch-resistant tempered glass that provides iPhone screen protection in addition to glare and glare. It’s thin and doesn’t add any bulk to the iPhone, even with five layers of technology at work. From top to bottom, there is an anti-reflective layer, an oleophobic and hydrophobic layer, a tempered glass layer, a dust barrier and an impact-resistant “airbag” connection.
If you have an iPhone 17, it comes with an anti-reflective coating added by Apple. What you may not know, however, is that you can’t just use any screen protector on the iPhone 17. If you put on a regular screen protector without an anti-reflective layer, it will negate the anti-reflective properties of this added layer.
Since Fresh Coat has its own anti-reflective coating, it actually enhances Apple’s anti-reflective coating to reduce glare even more. With Fresh Coat, your iPhone screen is easy to see in all lighting conditions, less eye strain, and even darker when you use dark mode.
If you don’t have an iPhone 17, Fresh Coat can give you an iPhone 17-style display upgrade that reflects Apple’s own anti-reflection display coating. Fresh Coat is available for all iPhone 17, iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max and iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models.
Astropad has designed a foolproof installation process so you get perfect alignment on your iPhone with no hassle.
