I have a new Blackberry Priv. Anyone have any positive suggestions for screen protection?

AC Question

I have heard that the Tech21 Self Heal and the ZAGG Invisible Shield both do well in providing protection. Unfortunately neither has a screen protector for the Blackberry Priv.
 
Any soft protector (like 3/$5) will protect the screen against scratches and wear. NO protector will protect it against breakage - tempered glass and Gorilla Glass 4 have about the same hardness. (If they come out with transparent aluminum or diamond protectors, I'll have to rethink this.)
 
Ghost Armor, applied at one of their kiosks. Fits well.
 
I have a hard sliding case from Seido with a Skinomi screen protector. It works well I think. Pick a case first, then pick screen protector is what I would say.

Screen protectors are useless. It's Gorilla Glass 4, it doesn't scratch. If you drop it just right where it will crack it will crack with or without a screen protector. This is my Gear S2 3G that I have scratched the powder coating off the Stainless Steel while dragging it through gravel. The screen is Gorilla Glass 4 and not a mark on it.

Best buy canada via the geek squad.They have a first come first served lineup desk where you can get the ClearPlex screen protector service. Costs about 25$ and has unlimited lifetime warranty.

This would be great, Aluminium oxynitride

I use the seidio surface case with holster. It makes the phone feel more substantial.

As faf as screen protectors, I agree about the gorilla glass. But I like to keep as much boogers and food off the screen.

I would love to do zagg, but I can't find it. Not even on zagg's site.
 
Gorilla glass or not I'm sold on tempered glass. I think they absorb the impact and take the energy instead of the screen. So my theory is that same hardness or no, the tempered glass breaks instead of the screen. Seemed to be the case on other phones for me
