Hi S5 users:
Anyone using Galaxy S5 without any screen protector. I am interested to know whether using S5 without a screen protector cause any damage to screen or not. Since it's gorilla glass 3.

I am using it without case & without screen protector, I may buy a case but a big no to screen protector.
I did the same with S3 and it was awesome, no scratch, nothing.
I always feel using a screen protector delays the touch response a tiny bit & why do that...
I stopped using screen protectors once they started using Gorilla Glass and have never had a problem.
After using the S2 for over two years, the screen had some minor scratches (only noticeable in certain light).
So far my S5 is holding up pretty good - I see one little scratch, but not enough to warrant getting a screen protector. I may put one on, but I'm still undecided.
I'm using all the time since s3, when after few days I discovered few small scratches. Always is beter change screen protector then replace amoled display
My S4 was in my shirt pocket. I dropped a (actual glass) cup and when I bent over to pick it up the device fell out of my pocket, in what seemed as slow motion, and the edge of the device landed on the edge of the cup and shattered the screen. Since then I always go to BB and for $39 I get a "glass" screen cover. You cant see it and it picks up fingerprints less than your ordinary screen cover.
I'm only using a basic cover on mine and no screen protector. I've never really found a screen protector necessary.

No screen protector here. Had a galaxy s3 for three years, no screen protector and no scratches or damage at all, dropped it a few times as well. I am not sure if a screen protector would help in a situation like the dropped phone above?

It's great to not use one until you get that one scratch on the screen, especially if it is deep and obvious then you will regret it! It really does not matter how careful you are with it, it just takes that one contact with the wrong object and...damn!
For the sake of a few dollars I would advise using one!
Personally i wanted to use screen protector but with the s5 i like to wash my device to make it clean so to those Who has screen protector on would u please tell me if the screen protector still in good condition after the device meets water?
If yes could u please tell me which one cos im going to buy
Thx!

Used to be an otterbox defender guy and now i'm using the phone naked. I just make sure i'm extra careful. I always put the screen facing my leg in my pocket
So far i'm not using a screen proctector with the S5.
I have spigen tough armor case so the phone never sits ont the screen or on the photo sensor.
The S5 has some treatment against smudge and fingerprint trace!!
i bought a screen protector, i was using my galaxy s5 without one. unfortunately i put my keys in the same pocket as my s5 and caused quite a few scratches.
good thing tmobile replaced it though, i dont think i would go without a screen protector even if it has gorilla glass.

I used http://mimeusa.com/ on my HTC One, still have it in-fact, and it works perfectly, had one on my wife's iPhone 5 as well. Gotten it wet several times riding my motorcycle in the rain. I just ordered the feather version for my S5. Cheaper than a new screen and it's got a lifetime guarantee. My HTC fell out of my pocket and hit perfectly on the corner against a concrete floor, broke the mime glass, sent them an email requesting a replacement and they sent me a 40% off replacement coupon. Very easy to install as well. Love their product.

Ill be grabbing the Oleophobic from Steinheil. Best there is.
Is tempered glass worth it anyone?
I dropped my HTC Aria on the screen, replaced it myself, then dropped it again.. I ended up upgrading to a Galaxy Note, but decided to be smart about it.
I got an Otterbox Commuter series with screen protector, and loved it. I even showed it off to my friends. Lol.
Now with my S5, I got my Otterbox and screwed up the screen protector, so I'm using it without a screen protector until my spigen screen protector comes in. It's a shame Otterbox doesn't sell replacement screen protectors for the S5 yet... Only a few more sleepless nights left though...
Never used a screen protector and has held up just great.
Hate screen protectors.. I mean really. there are people out there with 50 thousand dollar watches, they don't use them. Maybe I'm just lucky(im gonna get a huge gash now, lol) but these screens seem strong!
2 weeks so far without screen protector or case. I bought both in store on release day but since discovered Samsung stated not to use a screen protector as it impacts the sensors.

Has anyone seen any micro-scratches on their screen since you've had your phone? I've had my phone for about a month and I'm seeing a couple on mine. It's only noticeable in certain angles under the light when the screen off , its not a big deal as I'm gonna put a screen protector on it which i probably wouldn't notice it any longer. But I am a little surprise that the screen is not as scratch resistant as I expected and I've been babying my phone from a physical standpoint.
Everybody knows gorilla glass 2 is not as good as the 1st one.,I brought a screen protector even before I received my phone lol.since pre-order have this phone not a single scratch except on the screen protector which I replace every 2 months.
stripped apart rebuilt with Clean Rom&XdaTechnology!!!
Here's a closer view
You can't even tell I have a screen protector on lol

Ditto what he said. And GS4 has Gorilla Glass 3 (the current best available) so unless you sit on it or keep diamond-studded things in your pocket, i'd say a screen protector is not needed. Sometimes when you buy a protective cover, you'll get a free screen protector (usually nothing special, just a small added protection for your screen) which is more than enough for me, personally. But if you want the best protection... Look for tough cases with front flaps. Or you could just go with the official Galaxy S 4 S-View Flip Cover. It's very good protection unless the device is dropped or you sit on it.

I have an iloome glass screen protector. Once you have a glass protector you won't want a plastic one ever again. Even though these phones have good glass already they can still be scratched and if dropped they can break. Thats why I have something there. The glass protectors will take the impact of a fall so your screen doesnt break. Well wont break as easy..

Gorrila Glass 3 may be scratch resistant and all that, but it just offers peace of mind for me when I put a screen protector on my devices. The only device I don't do that on is my nexus tablet because I realized that since I don't carry it around like my S4, it's less likely to get damaged. I rock a Spigen nano tempered glass screen protector. It's like its not even there but I know my screen is protected.

I agree, glass screen protectors are great. But if you're looking for a plastic screen protector, I use Ghost Armor. I don't know if they sell it in retail stores but I'd be willing to bet they have a kiosk at your local mall.
On a side note.. just because your phone is Gorilla Glass 3 doesn't mean it can't scratch. I'd rather deal with plastic than deal with a scratched screen.
I always use screen protectors and I always carry my phone in my pocket. I have tried all sorts of protectors and you definitely will thank me if you get the Zagg high definition protector. Crystal clear, zero finger drag. Got mine for $30!

My keys are clipped on my hip to my belt loop. So I never have ANYTHING in my pockets. And wallet in butt pocket.

In other words, even if its a cheap screen protector you might want to get one.

You got me worried about mine. I'll definitely have to check out what Spigen's been up to with its tempered glass.:fingers-crossed:
Hi there guys. Those who are curious like me to know about the screen of note 3 has gorilla glass 3 protection or not, here is the answer.
I emailed samsung customer service and they replied me back and told me it got gorilla glass 3 protection..
Does this mean I can finally get rid of the annoying screen protector and use the phone as it's mean to be used?
Sent from my SM-N900 using xda app-developers app
No. Gorilla Glass 3 is the same as Gorilla Glass 2 except it's thinner. It's only scratch resistant, not scratch proof. Sand can easily scratch glass. You may not think your around any if you're not near a beach, but sand is every where. All it takes is a few grains to end up if you're pocket or a table you set your phone on to scratch it's pretty face. If you like living on the edge go for it, but I'll continue to use a screen protector.
Maybe someday we'll come up with inexpensive and tough Sapphire screens. That's when you won't have to worry about scratches. Since the only thing harder than sapphire are diamonds.

I've never used a screen protector, on any smartphone, and have never had a scratch on the screens regardless.
What bloody idiot puts his phone face down on a table? Does that not defeat the whole point of having a screen?
On the older models with speaker on the back it made a bit of sense, (not really, because the table served as an enhancer) but not on this phone.

I live in the UAE, sand is a constant danger.
I also am heavily into off-roading. you'd be amazed where sand can get.
I have sand in my pockets, ears, nose, mouth etc, this stuff gets everywhere!
Put a screen protector, it's a no brainer for me.
It is really a no-big deal to put the screen protector on your phone.it's not expensive,and it doesn't hurt. right?

I learnt the hard way, I used the Note 1 with no protection for 12 months and sold it with no scratches on the screen. Then on my Note 2 I used a Samsung flip cover, at some point the velvet coating picked up some grit and whilst it was in my pocket scratched the hell out of the screen! Now my Note 3 has a tempered glass screen protector on, and will always have one on!
Mine came pre-scratched
But you can't see it at all when the screen is on. And when off it's barely visible, and you have to hold it just so to see it.

Guys. And girls.
Check your Samsung user manual. Does it tell you not to use a screen protector? Yeah. It really does.
So: go without a screen protector if you want to, and if the screen does get scratched, bring the phone and the user manual to the store while you still have valid warranty. You should be able to get a new phone or a screen exchange.
It says it right in the manual. So if it does get scratched, use your rights as a consumer. You used your phone according to what is outlined in the manual and now it has a defect, so you get a repaired phone or a replacement. You know... That's what the warranty bit is all about.

Even the cheapest tempered is 12 bucks and provides amazing protection. Totally worth it.

Cant leave the screen unprotected. Must have a screen protector on. Save you from the regret.

I don't know why in this day and age, this common sense fact still has to be repeated in EVERY forum.
Questions on whether the screen is scratch proof keeps popping up in every forum, especially in the [Device]\[Accessories] Forum.
No Gorilla has ever liked, or likes sand up it's Arse !! NONE!

If someone where to carefully inspect your phone under a light, they will be able to see micro scratches scattered across the screen.

That is why we have the hardened glass protectors... It isn't that plastic feel that seems to cause more friction when using the s-pen...

It is glass.... A thin layer of hardened glass over the screen.... Feels like it's naked but gives awesome protection. Costs a bit more than the normal screen protector but well worth it...
The one I got - spigen glasT - has a few different coloured home key raisers in it too... Pick of black, clear or pink...
Oh, and the easiest install I've ever done with no bubbles... Line up on screen and then swipe finger down middle.... Lightly press out any air bubbles that are left, if some small bubbles left over, just leave for a day or two and they disappear... Brilliant....
Thanks, I think I might give one a try.

Welcome to the SGS4 community. I too also came from the SGS to this.
Yes, I do recommend a screen protector for this. Gorilla glass 3 isn't necessarily more scratch resistant than the 1st version.
SGN3 forums also reported scratches on the screen caused by the official Samsung S - view cover itself.

I would agree you should get one I got the Zagg invishield for both my SGS3 and my S4 and I recently dropped my S4 face down onto blacktop from about 5 feet by accident of course and not only did the screen not shatter but there wasn't even a chip or anything. They aren't that expensive either for the basic versions which work just fine.
I like that case however if you go into best buy or use amazon you can get a black Otter box commuter for 21.90 cents plus tax because they match amazon direct. As for the screen protector it is a must I have a zagg hd in mine which came free when the best buy messed up applying the one that came with the Otterbox. Then I got an xtreme guard back film for when I decide to go naked.

Not necessarily. You should also take into account that the bizels and glass are getting thinner.
With the SGS, I have had many accidents with it. The biggest one was dropping it 2 stories to the pavement when I was texting and looking out the window. We watched a scary movie that night before the incident occured. One of my friends scared me on Halloweens day and with that fright, I jumped and my SGS slipped out of my hands onto the wooden windows trip which we slightly angled and it fell. When I retrieved it, it was face down.
The damages were: dents and chipping of paint from the bizel plus a few scuff marks.
One of my friend has a cracked S4 screen from being in his pocket.
I STRONGLY advice a screen protector and a case that protects the bizel and sides.
With that being said, I don't recommend a plastic screen protector as it scratches from dust and just about anything it comes in contact with.
It also distorts the 1080p screen.
I would suggest a tempered glass screen protector as it is more resistant to scratches and generally only anything with a hardness of sand and above will leave marks on it.

I'm using a Spigen (I think) plastic screen protector that's pretty good, but I'm still hunting for a SGS4 analog to PowerSupport USA's amazing iPhone protectors. The Spigen is close, but not quite.
Hello guys! How are you?
I didn´t find some topic with this...I searched for good screen protector but it´s hard to find and to work it with some case...
I already bought the AmazingThing screen protector to try it (on the topic off screen protectors it seens to be the better one until now), but didn´t instal it yet because i bought also a case and I want to try this before because I think that they won´t work together...
Well...this topic is to users who are using it without any screen protector!
- How is your screen?
- It´s demaged or it´s ok?
- There are to many scratches?
- Just a few scratches that with screen turn on you can´t see it?
The first month with the S7E I used it withou screen protector and the screen was ok, no scratches until that time...after that I´m trying some screen protectors...but I´m tired of just try ****...
Thinking to use without but scared to fu**up the phone haha
Leave your experience!

u don't have to worry as long u don't throw ur phone in a pocket or bag with keys/coins/stuff!!! Never used a screen on my S6 edge / Note 5 and S7 edge and never had a issue until the other day i threw my S7 edge in my messenger which had a bunch of stuff in it now it has a tiny scratch... all my fault.
Just be careful with your phone man! Try and get a case with a good bump just in case.
Excellent case

I have been using the above case since April. I use my phone a lot at home and work. I have no marks whatsoever . Screen protectors are very hit and miss for the edge s7. I probably wasted about £30 on different variants and to be honest none of them were any good. Make sure the case is a genuine Spigen as there are lots of other sellers palming off fakes.
Hope this helps :good:

Surprisingly no micro scratches or anything on it besides the big cracks going along the screen, that I have since I dropped the phone. Might aswell go on with the insurance claim.
No screen protector and a tiny scratch visible when the screen is bright. Bought during june.
thank you all guys! I got one "glass" screen protector (seens to be the best option with others users reviews), but I haven´t installed it yet...maybe I´ll try it before using without because I already bought it, but I´m tired to search it...if it doesn´t work well I´ll use it without and be happy
I see that maybe will have some tiny scratches...that tiny scratches you can see with the display on or just when it is turned off?
If you could put some photos I´ll thank you a lot!!
I usually put on tempered glass protectors on all of my phones but I couldn't find a proper one for my S7E. I've using mine with no protecotor for more than a month now, but not a single scratch so far. I don't like the film ones, they tend to get dirty overtime and I hate the rainbow effect on the flim.
I'd recommend you go naked with S7E because the screen seems strong enough to resist scraches from dusts. Well I do use my phone carefully, as in I barely drop it and don't put it in my pocket with keys or anything. So If you are like me, you probably wouldn't need one
I'm not using any protector, but occasionally I use the 0.3mm thin silicon case that covers just the back. No scratches.
No screen protector
I have a case without a screen protector on my S7 Edge.
So far so good. I've had the phone since May and it doesn't look like I have any scratches yet.
I make sure that when I put the phone in my pocket that I don't have anything else in that pocket, especially not anything metal or other hard substances like sand.
I tried a few screen protectors and I couldn't find any that would fit well enough so I just gave up.
was using it without any screen protector but got few minor scratches in jus 10 days with keychain in pocket .so now m using a screen protector
Tech21 is awesome and very slim. I posted a thread about a screen protector from 5below (store here in NC) that's 5 dollars. Best one I've found yet. I've tried skinomi and zagg. I will say my case needed some modifications with my dremmel so it wouldn't keep making the edges come up.
I don't use screen protector since many years, but always a wallet case. Never had a scratch on my different phones....
I have some micro scratches! About 2 months in use!
But I never use screen protectors and definitely not gonna do it now on a curved screen where most, if not all, screen protectors have issues to master it and fully cover it while being compatible with cases!
