Sorry lobsterghost1, you are 100% correct. I reported my response as it was incorrect and since you responded to mine, it took down both. Didn’t mean for that to happen.


Just took a closer look and realized that the top notch are different sizes for both iPhones, and the camera and speaker are on opposite sides of the notch. Take a look at 1, they don’t align correctly.

I'm not sure what happened to the thread you opened which both Zachyy and I responded to, but my advice would be buy a screen protector designed for iPhone 16e. The speaker at the top of the phone is not in the same location as it is on iPhone 11 and many newer screen protectors no longer have a cutout for the island, like older protectors do. It presents a more seamless look and protects the island, just like the rest of your phone from possible scratches.


Here is a good example of a better quality protector for iPhone 16e: https://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Pro-16e-6-1-Shatterproof/dp/B0DJ5JXVHM/ref=sr_1_7_sspa?crid=2J2GLQUWTP50W&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.VDTAAVFS05Ill-0rGGaskatBdLDE16n9ql_MuXd-6u5oapLSCTXTX3fxX1z8_Y1wTr-sBicipuoNAbG5KrJHHnSx8UN7JmzXcKuLJNI6o2hGU9QE_0Ncre21YTaWYND9AADdsJOGwS0uNYCFHY0NXgwQBLMXcAvMb3LeYLx1o0PEsEbr3-8Lerg4rEfUgUoZXinDqzfnZ_IabfvFgGHu1LF4p9hQ4CvX8wvMGb3-3C8.vyEMs9VhSm9T-3bkCrhH18sP2p3Db-oKhew5cPjaElI&dib_tag=se&keywords=high%2Bquality%2Biphone%2B16e%2Bscreen%2Bprotectors&qid=1742756569&refinements=p_n_feature_six_browse-bin%3A23520614011&rnid=23520548011&sprefix=high%2Bquality%2Biphone%2B16e%2Bscreen%2Bprotectors%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-7-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9tdGY&th=1
