Do you need a screen protector for iphone4s

Do you need a screen protector for iphone 4s ?

It depends on how you handle and use the phone.  If you put it in a pocket or bag with loose change, keys, grit, etc, the oleophobic coating will likely scratch and sometimes the glass will scratch as well.

  • Do you really need a screen protector for iPad?

    So I know the iPad 4th gens have a really durable glass screen. Do I really need a screen protector? I have a case that covers the screen. It is an incpio.

    If you have a cover for it (your case) you shouldn't need a screen protector. I use Apple's Smart Cover and do not have a screen protector.

  • Do u  need a screen protector for the Iphone

    I know it might be a stupid question but alot of my friends have the Iphone 4 and they say they dont need a screen protector because the screen doesnt scratch like other smartphone and phone screens. Anyone know if this is true?

    I use all my devices naked. Screen protectors detract from my enjoyment. But if you're worried, try one and see if you can live with it. 
    The glass is really strong. I've had my iPad for eight months and it doesn't have a scratch on it. Granted, that device is babied more than a phone, not shoved in a pocket.
    Be sure to follow Apple's directions for cleaning the screen. Cleaning it too often can break down the oils that protect the glass.

  • Do I need a screen protector for my New iPad with retina display?

    I have a screen protector on my new iPad with retina display, but does this effect the screen display and do I really need a screen protector on?

    So I just got my first ever iPad (4th gen) about 4 days ago. I am waitng on a case and have been looking into a screen protector, debating this same question on quality. I have a 3 year old and he is dying to play with it. In the meantime I cannot stress how careful I have been, as Im sure you all know what Im talking about.  Last night I was using it on my lap and my shirt tugged it off, causing me to grab it before it fell. Of course the longest, sharpest nail, caught it for me. Obviously I freak out and hurry to clean the screen to see for damage. I see there is a huge line where my nail caught it, but upon cleaning was no longer there. This nail was sharper than any key I own! So I guess what im going to do is get a complete cover for use with my 3 year old and just a basic one when I use it. Good job apple!

  • Best screen protectors for iPhone4?

    I am looking for the best screen protector for my phone. I don't want to scratch the beautiful glass screen and I tend to be clumsy. Right now, I have a Zagg invisible shield, but the corners always peel! Please help me with suggestions
    Thanks!

    Phone Devil Magic Screen Protector
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VPT5U2
    I have used a number of screen protectors and this is one of the best ones so far (from the 20 in a pack for 0.99 cents to the military/space grade ones). The anti-glare feature doesn't get any better than this. The other product that looks good too is the Power Support screen protector. However, the PhoneDevil/MediaDevil are a better bargain. I have the Power Support anti-glare on my iPad and the PhoneDevil/MediaDevil on my iPhone. After installing both I ordered another pack of the PhoneDevil/MediaDevil for my wife's iPhone and for 2 other iPads that we have. I use my iPhone/iPad to process credit cards and customers have to sign on them. It is nice to hand them the gadget without tons of finger prints on the screen. It is also easier for them to see outdoors.
    As with any screen protector, the key is to ensure the screen is clean. I recommend that these are installed in the bathroom. Let the hot shower run for a bit so the bathroom steams up. Once the steam has cleared, clean the screen as noted in the instructions. Don't be in a rush. Take your time. Also, use the card provided to remove any bubbles.

  • Do you use a screen protector? for powerbook.

    Do you use a screen protector for your powerbooks? if so, what do you use?

    No, I thought about it and decided that a screen protector was not something I needed. The reasons:
    * Key marks are generally finger oils, not physical scratches, and are therefore not permanent and can be removed using a damp cloth and gentle pressure. I have had my PowerBook for 2 years and this has held true. Various parts of my PowerBook have deteriorated far faster than the screen.
    * I didn't want to have this additional thing to have to remove after opening the lid and to replace before closing the lid. To me that's annoying and complicates the experience. I love being able to get going as soon as I open the lid.
    * I transport the PowerBook in such a way to avoid having other items in the bag compress the lid to the keyboard. If you carry a PowerBook in a backpack with 3 classes worth of textbooks and give the bag a hard landing on the library table with the PowerBook on the bottom, well, you might make some permanent marks that way.
    * When thinking about all the things I might want/need to buy with the amount of money the screen protector would cost, I decided the screen protector was way far down on the list.
    Nothing personal to those who find screen protectors useful, but that's the reasoning I arrived at. My opinion is that screen protectors are one of the many accessories that profit from unfounded consumer anxieties.

  • Screen protector for macbook

    Hello peeps,
    I'm currently using Moshi iVisor for my Macbook Pro 13 inch screen protector.
    It's anti glare, but the sharpness and brightness of my screen diminishes quite significantly.
    Do you guys have any better recommendation?
    Prefer one which is clear and retains the sharpness of my screen
    THanks

    Any time you stick a piece of plastic over your screen it's going to degrade the quality of the image at least a little.  Why do you feel you need a screen protector?  Just don't poke at your screen and all will be fine.

  • Screen protector for ip4

    Any news on a screen protector for iPhone4 ? Will the protector for the 3GS mess up the screen camera?

    Well, I didn't mess with trying to figure out if I could scratch it. I just put on a front, back, and sides cover from best skins ever. Here is the website http://www.bestskinsever.com/

  • Screen protector for TouchPad - yea or nay ?

    If you use a screen protector for your TouchPad, please help the community (well, and me too!) by letting us know your experiences, in particular:
    What brand?
    Ease of application (and removal)...getting the bubbles out?  Dust trapped?
    Quality of the view (Glossy or matte finish?  Does it minimize glare/reflection?  Does it give off any distorted effects?)
    Feel, and touch screen sensitivity issues?
    Many thanks!

    1. PhantomSkinz and some el-cheapo cling-type protector off eBay
    2. Horrific application for the PhantomSkinz.  I will never, ever buy another of their products that requires water to apply.  The el-cheapo cling protector was MUCH easier to apply, but I could never get it 100% dust free under the protector.  Every time I applied it, there was always dust underneath.  So annoying.
    I gave up on any screen protector for my TP.

  • Will i need a case or screen protector for iphone 5

    will i need a case or screen protector for iphone 5? heard the glass is tougher, but still concerned about scratches.

    I think you probably should ask if others ever felt they needed them. I can tell you from my experience that applying a screen protector never worked out for me and I always took them off shortly after applying (bubbles / dust enclosed). But then a former colleague had his applied in an Apple Store and that looked perfect. Fortunately I never had a scratch in a screen as I always took good care (and my iPhones always had a pocket in my trowsers to themselves and didn't need to share it with keys or other scratchy objects ...).
    The case is a completely different story: I think every phone I had so far managed at least once to slide out of my pockets (don't laugh!) while being on a loo and hit the floor from low hight. Due to the covers I had, the phone looked as new as before, just the cases had a slight scratch if at all. Therefore a case would be highly recommended esp as it can safe you iPhone if you drop it from higher hight.
    Reading the first hands-on reviews it appears that the new iPhone 5 is built with materials that are less prone to scratch or crack but my first purchase next Friday will be a case. Not sure if bumper or full case but a case nevertheless.

  • Do I need a screen guard for my Ipad? If yes which one to get? You get a **** lot of variety in the market.

    Do I need a screen guard for my Ipad? If yes which one to get? You get a **** lot of variety in the market.

    I originally had a Zagg screen cover but they are tricky to install good. Too easy for a piece of lint or such to get under them. I replaced it with a cheap 'three covers for 5 dollars' screen protector. It's a bit annoying because its glossy....but right now I have my iPad in a Zagg portfolio so it's in a case with a keyboard - and there are little rubber bumpers that touch the iPad, and I like the thought of having the screen protector there just in case.
    Look for one that advertises no residue and that clings more by static than any adhesive. I'd also look and see if it advertises clarity and a matte surface...the glossy iPad screen can be a bit tricky in the wrong lighting.
    I'll always have one on mine, just because. I've sunk a chunk o change into this and I'd like to protect it.
