Many thanks to those who replied to this thread. I'm convinced that glass is the way to go and just ordered the iPhone 7 6S 6 Screen Protector Glass, amFilm iPhone 7 Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Apple iPhone 7, iPhone 6S, iPhone 6 2016, 2015 (2-Pack) from Amazon. This 2-pack showed a retail price of $29.99 but Amazon had it on sale for $7.99. It listed as a bestseller and had a customer rating of 4.3 out of 5 starts. It is 0.33mm thick.
This is a very reasonable price for a tempered glass screen protector 2-pack and I even got free shipping with Amazon Prime.

I can't say is there a difference or not because I didn't use 3D touch with film protector or without it but from my point of view, it works correctly, there are no latencies and it is sensitive enough for smooth operation. Regarding the quality of tempered glass protectors it can vary. I saw protectors about 3 or 4 mm thick and I saw thin protectors, about 2 mm. The thickness of the protector can be seen around the Home button. I believe thicker protectors are more expensive and hopefuly better. I had experienced two protectors in about a year. My first thicker protector broke when I accidentally pushed the phone from the fridge and it bumped onto kitchen tiles. This one was about 15 bucks in the stores. The second one I got for about 10 bucks in store and it is thiner and works for now. It misses a tiny part on the top center but it is almost invisible and can be treated as part of the design. I can't be sure bu I suspect with the second protector my phone became less sensitive in the corners while performing double tap. I can't be sure so I won't put the blame on the protector. You also need to pay attentiion is the protector properly fixed to the screen. It is not as flexible as the film protectors and if it doesn't lay well on the surface you could experience sensitivity glitches.

I'm starting to look at accessories for the iPhone 7 which I'm planning to get at the beginning of February and wanted to get opinions from those who have used glass screen protectors on their iPhones. I've always considered glass screen protectors to be more than I needed with the care I take with my iPhone and have never been fully convinced that they don't interfere with the touch sensitivity of the iPhone. However, I don't want to make assumptions about such things and would prefer to get comments from those on the list who actually use a glass screen protector with their iDevice. I'm particularly interested in the opinions of those who have them with models 6S and higher that have 3D Touch capability and if they have noticed any affect the glass screen protector has on 3D Touch efficacy. I see on Amazon a very wide range of prices of glass screen protectors from $6 up and one from Tech21 who makes the case I use which goes for about $35 for the iPhone 7. This is quite a range and I'm having a hard time reconciling the differences which account for such a range. I'd love to hear from anyone who has recommendations about a specific glass screen protector model and about what it costs. Thanks in advance for any comments you can provide.
