So I have a brand new shiny S6. LOVE THIS PHONE.

Put a nice slim case on it, which offer a lip that ensure the screen won't touch even when face down. So far, this screen is surprisingly fingerprint and dirt resistant.

Question is should I go ahead and put a screen protector on as well? Do most of you have one?? If anyone is rocking the phone with a case and no protector how scratch resistant is the phone?

Thanks!

I put a otterbox defender on mine just because I like feeling like I'm holding something in my hand, and I'm safe knowing of I drop it or throw it in my jacket pocket with keys I'm not worried.... however if you don't mind the small form factor and little hairline scratches go for it. It's a personal preference

I haven't used a screen protector in 5 years. I specifically look for cases with a generous lip to avoid any contact with flat surfaces and have yet to have a problem. I vote no.

Personally I have been messing around for years trying to find the perfect case / screen protector combo.
I have found, at least for me, the best combo. I used an OtterBox Defender, but I rip off the crappy plastic screen protector, and use a
Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector. Works amazing, looks amazing, protects amazing.
Paid like 5 bucks for it on Ebay.

Cheers

Get a tempered glass screen protector. Feels just like no screen protector at all!

I use a Spigen case which I'm really happy with but I have struggled to find a screen protector that works with the S6. It looks like some people have found some that do but I have tried 3 different tempered glass ones and haven't found one that doesn't leave bubbles round the edge.

So, I have a case but no screen protector, 1 year in and no scratches or screen damage.

Decided to go with the case (tech21 clear slim case) and a tempered glass screen protector. I have a history of getting fine scratches on my phones and they end up bugging me, so figured this was best course of action. Phone still feels great in my hand and has a very slim profile and the screen protector has not had any impact on screen visibility or sensitivity.
