I remember a thread about how easily the Note 7 scratched, it had Gorilla Glass 5. I didn't want to believe until mine got a scratch. Not taking any chances.
Another vote here for never use one and no problems with scratching. Screen protectors scratch much easier and unless you keep replacing them your phone won't look anyway. For those who just trade their phone in most times having a perfect screen doesn't matter. They just don't want it cracked.
Maybe I'm just that wired guy that dedicates a pocket to just my phone. Nothing else ever goes in my left pocket except my phone. I use a case because of how freaking slippery phones have become especially glass backs.
The only time I ever hade a phone with a screen protector was because it came with one preinstalled and that was the mate 9.
I had a good laugh about a month ago when my friend dropped his iPhone and the screen cracked under the tempered glass protector he had on it haha.
Seriously gorilla Glass just keeps getting better and better. Gone are the days where you will scratch your screen putting it in your pocket. There is no actually need for one. I never use and never get scratches on my screens of any phone. Maybe I'm just not careless with $800+ dollar device.
Heh, there are some brave people in here. If you're OK with scratches on your phone, I guess a screen protector is optional.
No protector and no scratches! To each their own and I usually use tempered glass (the wet application are garbage) but it's not mandatory by any means.
So...it's been 5 days and yes, i got a nice around 2 cm scratch on my phone! I was really careful with it, no keys in the same pocket or anything else so i have no idea how it got that scratch (which is kinda deep since i can feel it using my fingernail) but it is what it is now. Although i have to say that my S7E haven't gotten a single scratch.
So, anyone used cerium oxide? I kinda want this scratch to be gone, otherwise ill be replacing the screen!
Any ideas?
