I use a screen protector on all my previous phones. For the S6, I'm thinking of not using one. It's going to be in my pocket along with a case. How scratch resistant is the screen?
I'm not sure. Mine already has one right down the middle. I never had one worth my S4
How did you get it scratched?
I also got some minor scratches, put my phone in the same pocket my lighter was in :/ never doing that again lol
I bought a tempered glass one for mine... And just so you know the edge doesn't stick right.
It has to do with the screen being beveled. So just keep in mind that 1 or 2 mm of the edge will always look bad. I'm thinking about taking it off.
(s6, not s6 edge)
I used a screen protector up until about a year into my S4 and took it off. I got tired of the finger drag, rainbow, and scratches it accumulated. My S4 ended up with a minor scratch that could only be seen in a certain light if you knew it was there. My S6 has the same now, almost in the same place and in extreme sunlight, at a crrtain angle, I can see a few spiderweb looking scratches. Gorilla Glass is far from scratch proof, but I'd rather enjoy the feel of the glass. Glass screen protectors get scratched as well. I put one on my son's S6, the Verizon protector installed by them, and it does not reach the sides of the screen, which annoys him. I figure if my screen gets badly scratched, I'll put a protector on at that point.

Get an s view case best of all worlds the joys of naked screen with the true anti shatter protection that only a flip case can provide, the Samsung s view case is excellent.
I'm using Spigen crystal screen protectors. They're normal ones, not glass, but they're excellent. You get 2 Front, and 1 back, and they are quite good on smudges, perfect clarity, and they have no halo or issues attaching to screen. Quite cheap at £6.
As for S-view cases, they don't offer the protection people think. I've seen many a Samsung phone shatter in them.

I wanted to gather some feedback after many of us have had the phone for several months.
In my second week of owning the phone, I put a simple screen protector on and have not taken it off. The bare screen was so smooth and so easy to clean, resisting fingerprints which the screen protector collects like there is glue on it.
Have any of you been running with the device sans a protector, and if so, how has your screen fared in terms of nicks and scratches? I would love to peel mine off if I can be reasonably confident it can live without it.

I just ordered my Moto X but I can speak from experience with other Gorilla Glass 3 screens. If you are careful with them you will most likely not get any easily visible scratches, but odds are you will get minor scratches that are only visible under sunlight/directly under a lightbulb. If that would bother you, keep a screen protector on it. If not, take it off.
I just ordered my motox, I was wondering what screen protector or tempered glass you would recommend (I'm from the UK)

Based on what I've read in the tempered glass screen protector thread, there don't seem to be any companies putting out a tempered glass screen protector that works perfectly with the Moto X 2. Because of the slightly curved screen, none of the glass screen protectors will stick properly around the edges.
I haven't used a screen protector in at least 3 years. I hate them, and think they are absolutely pointless. What's the point of protecting the glass if you are never going to actually USE the glass?
I'm using the matte screen protector from Moto's site. Actually really like it. It does degrade image quality when light colors are shown though. Regardless, the matte effect is pretty cool and just having a tiny bit of protection puts me at ease since we still don't have high quality tempered glass options.
You are using the glass, you're looking through it!!
I'm looking for a good screen protector for my Moto X.
I tried these, but they weren't good:

Anybody tried a good one?

I have not used screen protector in a few years myself. They won't help if you drop your phone. Also with Gorilla glad it is very hard to get scratches, however I have gotten some micro scratches that can be seen with the lighting just right.
With this phone I have had it for a month now and no scratches.
I really think the screen on this new Moto X is great and I would not recommend a screen protector.

I've dropped mine two times, the second of which was from about 5 feet straight onto concrete. The phone bounced, landed on the screen and slid about a foot. There's not one scratch on it. No screen protector or case. Don't know if I'm extremely lucky or this thing is a tank.
I have dropped my Moto G (1st gen) 57 times. Yes, I keep count
The screen still looked perfect before I gave it to my dad when I got the Moto X. There was one small scratch on the plastic on the back, but it was pretty minuscule in size.
I love the feel of the glass too.
I really don't think screen protectors are necessary even if you are as clumsy as me. I could just be lucky too...
Bad Luck
I've dropped my Moto X 2nd Gen 3 times now and all 3 times the screen got a new crack. I'm getting it replaced since I got MotoCare. The curved glass adds some weakness and since these curved edges extend out past the frame that is the first thing that hits on front face falls. I'm looking for a screen protector, if one exist, that will be able to wrap around the edges.

Here's the thing about screen protectors. The cheap (and not so cheap) plastic ones are mostly unnecessary. They won't protect against drops very much (maybe some of the wet apply ones) and give off a way worse feel to the finger than the pure glass. They do protect against scratches, but IMO it's not worth the effort nor the cost.
However, the new(ish) tempered glass screen protectors change a lot of that. Sure, they're kind of expensive, but they actually protect against drops, feel like the glass that's on the phone, and protect against scratches as well. However, it's incredibly apparent that due to the design of the Moto X, few companies are bothering to make this type of screen protector for the phone, and the few that are have made products that don't fit very well to the phone. So there's really no good option here in terms of screen protectors.
From what I've read, there isn't really a good tempered glass screen protector for this device yet. It seems like all of the decent ones still have issues with the sides lifting up due to the curved edges. Has anyone found that covers the entire screen and doesn't have this issue?
After 3 Weeks i got my Note Edge Healing Shield from Hongkong company Healing Shield.
http://healingshield.shoplineapp.com/products/5478a9a6039055c2e2000001
it comes with 3 pc shields (adhesive folio), microfaser cleaning rag, scraper and a remover sticker...the adhesive bonding folio is a litte bit strange, but works great. The panel is fully secured now, and the size of screen protector is 100%.
Love it!
I have it also and I don't like it.
It has that orange peel effect and makes my screen feel so rubbery.
I had no choice as it was the only screen protector that I could find for the Note Edge while I was vacationing in Singapore this past Christmas/New Year.
It does protect the screen and also the edge. I'd say it protects 90% of the screen but doesn't cover the the three sensors next to the ear piece on top and the bottom part after the home button.
I'm still waiting for the first tempered glass screen protector to be released for the Note Edge.
But the case I got for it is amazing. It is the Tridea case.
http://www.amazon.com/Tridea-Anti-S...dea+case&pebp=1422104071464&peasin=B00PI5O2WY
They are good because they are the best out of the very very few available full screen protector.
However they have many downsides too. For example, they are quite soft so when used with the s pen, it leaves dents and marks on the protecto. It feels quite sticky too at the sasame time so doesn't feel very easy for the fingers to glide on. It also dims quite a bit of the screen brightness and colours. When I compared my note edge with my note 3, the note 3 screen appeared to be brighter and more colourful. I conclude that it is probably due to the healing shield protector. It just doesn't make sense that the new note edge screen is inferior to the note 3 one.
There are 2 types of film. The clear type and anti-glare type. The anti-glare type is much better for s-pen.
i put the armorsuit screen protector, dont see fingerprints.. but do see where my s-pen has been lol. its only visible in the light and held at an angle. Just waiting for a tempered glass screen protector to come out next month
what does it mean by self healing? and if it was, then why would you need 3 then lol
unless its another gimmick like the g flex.
Does your armorsuit covers the whole screen, including the edge? TIA.
I got the Skinomi protector and I absolutely love it. It was easy to put on and was the first protector I'd ever installed myself without a single bubble.
The big difference between the Skinomi and the others I've seen is that the speaker and camera notches are cut out just for them and do not extend up. (Look on Amazon to see what I'm talking about - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NAJ07QU/) For $10 - best purchase ever for a phone.
Apparently, Skinomi will be announcing / releasing their tempered glass protector. I'll probably be picking that up when it comes out.
Correction - It was iloome I was thinking of - not Skinomi.
I agree. I just put a Skinomi on mine, and it is fantastic. Now, as for long term, don't know...but certainly a keeper. Just be patient and let it dry. Amazing.
I am waiting for my Galaxy S6 arrives. Does the screen easily scratched? I don't want to take extremely good care of it.
And also does anyone try using tempered glass protector? How does it feel compared to regular?
I have preordered an extended battery case and they promised to give me a tempered glass protector. I'll let you all know how it works once I get them.

I got the zagg tempered glass protector and it feels pretty solid. IMO the gorilla glass 4 feels a bit better but it's super clear and feels nice.
The S6 is made of Gorilla glass corning 4 so it's pretty tough but it wouldn't hurt to have some sort of protection. I have IQShield screen protectors and it provides full coverage. Check them out on Amazon. Also it's currently on sale.

Sorry to hear about the deep scratch. I don't have a screen protector on mine yet, though I just received the BodyGuardz Ultra Tough. I've been careful, but I'm not using a case or screen protector at all currently and have just been putting it in my pocket thus far. I would say scratches were much easier to put on my previous phone, which was the crusty old S3.
OP, I think that the screen can and will scratch somewhat easily. I think that if you don't want to take extra precautions with the phone on a day-to-day basis, I would recommend getting a screen protector and/or a case. These just allow you to be a little more clumsy and not have any repercussions. (or fewer repercussions.)

doesn't scratch easily but my oleophobic coating is already wearing and ive had it since april 10th
i've had the phone since launch and been using it without screen protector and have not notice any scratches at all. Im not careful with my phone too. Put it in my pocket with keys and change regularly and put it screen down, since the camera makes the phone slippery when it's on smooth uneven surfaces. With previous phones, nexus 4 and 5, they would have some micro scratches by now. I dont get this obsession over getting scratches on a screen that are not noticeable when the screen is on. You are only going to have this phone for a year or two so i dont see what the big deal is.
I got a small scratch after using the phone for one day. Probably due to a grain of sand in my pocket or something like that. I'm planning on getting a screen protector not only to prevent further scratching, but also to ensure the current scratch won't be visible to the naked eye. Albeit knowing that there already is a scratch truly grinds my gear.

I sometimes miss my old moto x 2013-- that thing NEVER scratched no matter what. I had that thing naked for a two years and I re-sold it in immaculate condition. I dropped that thing dozens of times, and it was never harmed once. I miss that thing...
I had a fine scratch on mine after a couple days of use. Luckily Rogers let me exchange mine anyway cause mine had a slightly looser than normal home button.
Quickly put on a tempered glass protector on both the front and back.

Tempered glass protection screen of mobile phone film is currently the most high-end products to strengthen the protection of the.
The protective layer thickness of only 0.1 mm, can completely cover the original screen surface, prevent external damage, scratches, more shock absorbent, 5 times higher than the standard PET film. The video has no effect on the screen.

Thank you for your opinion-- do you have a brand that you recommend? I think we all know that glass screen protectors are the way to go, but it's a matter of which company you buy from that determines the success or failure of the screen protector.
i scratched the flash/heart rate monitor sensor glass, luckily everything still works and i'm thankful it wasn't my camera lens
I have the S6 for one week nude and no scratches, though I am very careful.
I am just a little annoyed by the reflection rainbow effect the screen does under sunlight, will a tempered glass take it away?
I've always used a tempered glass on phones... no matter how much I take care the glass always seems to get micro-scratches which drive me up the wall....
I take really good care of my phones, I don't even use a case on most phones and have never dropped or broken a phone.
My question goes out to the guys who have S7e, N7, anything with a curvature really.. how do you protect the screen? Do you need to?
Do you find that the screen itself is scratch resistant enough? More so than tempered glass protectors?
I know there are form fit protectors now, but I read a LOT of bad reviews about them. I'm worried about buying the S8+ because of the super curvy edges.
Usually screen protectors don't work very well with curved screen, as you might know.
JerryRigEverything made a video about it being super easy to scratch, but he made an error and used wrong type (afaik) and in fact Gorilla Glass 5 was pretty much durable from easy scratches like keys etc.
Am waiting for this to be back in stock. Betting on Otter this time.

I own the S7 Edge and have tried a variety of screen protectors. Glass Ones are difficult to fit, but I have found several that have been adequete. Not perfect but ok. There have also been a few very good plastic screen protectors that worked exceptionally well - Spigen had a CURVED glass screen protector that was excellent and Body Glove also had one that was very good.
I have seen a few on Amazon that look like they are going to be ok - and none of them, even the glass ones are too expensive. You may have to do some trial and error to find the one you like the best, but I am confident you will find something that works. I know I will.
Skinomi wate install protector normally works. The only problem i have is after a few months the edges will get dirty.
They sell some really stickey flim protectors. But those sratch very easy.
I always put a protector on my phones because things can always happen no matter how careful you are.
When I got my S7 edge last year I tried a few curved screen protectors and was disappointed with them, eventually they all peeled off. (Reluctantly) I have not used a screen protector since and can honestly say my screen looks as good as day one. When I get my S8+ (Very soon I hope ) I wont be using a screen protector unless something outstanding comes to the market.
I got a tempered glass kit that should be here soon, with a case. I also picked up the Strada series Otterbox, I will likely use the Strada case, as it will fully protect the phone, and still look nice, this way I dont have to worry about micro scratches.
I have owned an edge mobile since the day they where released, I NEVER found a satisfactory solution to protecting the screen with any sort of screen saver and I tried dozens. S6 edge, S6 edge+ Note 7 and S7 edge. Its been hell. I have found some that have been 'okay' until one uses a case then they start to peel off. Some have glue only around the edges and eventually allow micro dust in between the saver and screen. The plastic membrane sort have been an equal nightmare.
If you read the numerous posts on this subject in the various Edge forum here you will soon learn that going without can and will save you a headache. I use a flip case. I used the Samsung LED flip case on both my Note 7's and have pre ordered the same case for the S8+
Those edges are pigs to protect with a saver. The Note 7 Used Samsung own skin and they where still a disaster.
Now the good news. To date and all these years latter never even got a micro scratch on the screen. Having said that if one drops ones mobile.......
I use a flip case and that appears to be the only solution I have found to this situation. BTW even those glass screen savers that only cover the flat part of the screen are not so good as they make such an ugly mess of a beautiful screen, some of them do work though.
I understand the edges on the S8's are the most acute to date so though I can't foresee the future I am still not confident a full screen saver will be found. Lets hope it doesn't prove a problem. I, for one, wont even try and cover the screen, way to much hassle.

I've been using Skinomi for a good while and my edges are pretty clean still (but this is on a flat screened phone). I'm hoping that it stays like that for the S8+ on the curved screen.
The other issue besides fit is how the screen looks with them on. I have never been able to find a plastic protector that doesn't mess with the quality of the screen. It's such a beautiful screen I hate to put something on that messes that up.

Please let us know how that works out; or if it's just expensive snake oil?
The note 7`s gg5 was excellent and as I was returning both I went naked, and they looked perfect after a couple of months of abuse! I do have gg3 on another phone but sadly it hasn't held up so well.
Put it this way on previous phones I've probably spent around £100 or more trying to find a perfect protector.....its cheaper to buy insurance and claim on it than suffer with crappy screen protectors.

I think we have beat the tempered glass subject to death here... I removed my half-peeled off Tantek tempered glass protector and tried to apply a new one, didn't go so well, this one kept lifting right below the bottom speaker and I tried a little heat from a hair dryer (from a YT video) and it got worse instead of better... long story shortened, the new one is broken and went in the trash and my phone has no screen protector in it's Poetic Affinity case.
Are there any plastic film screen protectors that fit well and don't feel like cling wrap? Supershieldz seem to have mostly good reviews on Amazon, and 6 of them for $6 is pretty cheap.
Is it really worth it to use a simple film screen protector if it isn't tempered glass since we already have Gorilla Glass 3?
Gave up
I thought of this and ultimately decided on not using a screen protector at all after having no luck with tempered glass. Unless you're going for 5+ years of daily usage or live on the sand or use your phone as a cutting board, I don't really feel that they're necessary for anything other than accommodating for the massive and annoying lip that is found on many protective casings.
Realistically, how long does it take to scratch a screen up real bad? I had (and still have) a tempered glass protector on the Note 2 and only ended up with two small, minor scratches on it after nearly three years of daily use.

I would say that you should look at the old screen protector you removed and determine how scratched it was. Just a few after a year or more of usage, your probably fine running naked.

Yeah, it looked pretty good actually... Probably just going to go plain.
Been I using mine for a year and a half with no screen protector. Just an incipio octane case most of the time.
Can't see a single scratch even in bright light, at an angle, with the screen off. It has held up quite well.
I too have been thinking of going without a tempered glass. But a few times my phone drops on the screen side and then I thank my tempered glass. It's worth it for me, because if the screen breaks it will probably be very expensive to replace and I don't want to spend anything more than 2 dollars on my moto x style
I used to use zag screen protectors they make a plastic one that felt ok not great with my note 3 went to glass never looked back until the moto x pure but i don't think ill go back to plastic ill probably stick with glass and put up with the slight halo
i have had the best luck with pleson on my moto x i have scratched the glass protectors and my old pleason saved my screen. The biggest thing i don't like about this phone is the lack of good cases all of the cases suck and the otter box is poorly designed...
I have dropped getting a screen protector after getting a Galaxy S3.
Gorilla Glass is pretty tough, and I have had my Pure for probably 5-6 months now, and I do not see any noticeable scratches. Not that it is flawless, just a few very tiny scratches that I would not see unless if I looked very closely. Just go naked, and be careful when you're near sand.

Sand is everywhere and needless to say, my glass screen protectors scratch up very noticeably within a year (doesn't matter the brand either). I baby my phones even with a sturdy case so it is not neglect on my part. I typically use a holster as well so that sand that may be trapped in my pocket cannot do a number on my screen protectors.
