Is "Gorilla Glass Armo(u)r" Magic?

[fuzzylumpkin]

No, it is not. It will break like any other screen. That said, it looks like it may not be just normal glass, either. We smell sapphires!

Case and temper glass since my very first Samsung which was Note 2 and S3 so looks like I'm not changing that anytime soon lol

Same, although the screen protector may not really be a necessary thing anymore. Gonna be difficult to find something in everyday life that can scratch the screen on this. Unless you have a lot of diamonds hanging around.

In my line of work something would damage the screen, chemicals/dirt and anything else the mechanic runs into

Thank you for sharing this.

That would be true if you did any actual work

I'm curious if a tempered glass screen protector will negate the awesome anti-reflective properties of the new Gorilla Armour. The reviews and comments rave about the anti-reflective properties quietly being one of the best new attributes of the phone.

Yes it will. Screen protector=RIP anti glare.

There speculation that using an anti-refective screen protector won't negate it, however that remains to be seen.

It will still only be as reflective,or anti-reflective, as the screen protector rather than the screen itself.

Thats why I state that it remains to be seen

I am not on board with this assumption. Consider this...the anti-reflective properties are NOT on the top layer of the screen but rather are built in to the glass or exist as a coating on the underside of the screen. Therefore the top layer is still CLEAR glass! I feel that putting another thin layer of clear glass on top of the screen will not stop the anti reflective elements in the screen itself. Time will tell!

My S23 developed fine scratches from being in my pocket or back pack. The only thing that could have caused them were coins or keys

I always like to throw a thin screen protector on my phone just for the micro scratches with my OCD....

Definitely will

By the way you mentioned I don't work, I have become a Teacher now which I never thought would happen if you asked me 25 years ago
