Still need a screen protector

[kide#WN]

Every year, doesn't matter how Samsung advertises new glass technology, people manage to damage the glass screen pretty easy.

And this year is not much different. Still cracks.
The back is more durable and the display seems like more scratch resistant.

Yea, unless you want a thick and heavy phone, smartphone glass displays are still going to crack.

A glass screen protector and a case with some good raisivity should minimize the risk. #flossy

A lot depends on how flat it lands. I had a Note 10 fall off a cocktail table onto cement which is only a couple of feet and the whole front shattered.

I've used the LK screen protectors on my last couple of Samsung phone. Work great and long lasting. LK 2 Pack That being said, I also put a military grade case on my phone (Ghostek). I've dropped my last few phones on ceramic tile and concrete, not a scratch.

Note 10 was released about 5 years ago??? Gorilla Glass 6....not very flexible and more prone to shatter BUT very scratch resistant. "supposedly" this newest GG Armor is both scratch resistant AND shatter proof...well shatter resistant???

Your assessment is not exactly fair. Yes, it cracked in this case, but it was a tiny crack up in the corner. That has more to do with how or what it landed on and less to do with glass.

Crack is crack, tiny or not. LOL. But yes, I agree, it didn't spread, as it was in the past. Most likely, some pressure on the edge of the glass from the metal frame made it crack.

Surprised it didn't spread, I've been told that crack is quite morish
