Should I use a screen protector for an iPhone 6 Plus?

I just bought an iPhone 6 Plus and can't decide if I want/need a screen protector on it. I take great care of my phones and do not set it carelessly down on any surface.

Yes.
We were going without for the first time, and after only 2 weekes,  my wife just showed me a hairline scratch on hers.  She says it could not possibly have happened, but it did.
I just ordered screen protectors for both of ours.

  • Should I use a Screen Protector with Otterbox Defender or Griffin Survivor?

    I bought both of these rugged cases and keep hearing that the actual cases can scratch the phones.  Should I use a screen protector on the phone face and back as well?  I assume that may not fit in the cases if I do that.  Anyone have any experience with these cases?

    I have the Ghost Armor (same as ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD) installed on my Iphone and my otterbox defender will be here today (anytime) I will let you know how it goes or how it fit as soon as my defender get delivered by FedEx.
    Do you have the shield on the front and back?  I read they do not fit in the Otterbox with both.  I would bet one side may fit.  I think if you use a thin one like the Verizon site has (PureGear Display Protectors) on the front I bet it will fit.  I have the Survivor case and have not head a chance to try the shield with it.  I got the phone, and first threw it in that case.  I know what to get a shield on it if possible.  Please let me know if it fits.

  • Should you put a screen protector on the iphone if the case is going to be a otterbox defender?

    I am trying to figure out if I need a screen protector on my iphone 4s if I am using a Otterbox Defender.  The salesman suggested I should but I know a lot of people who do not use any screen protection on other cases/shells.

    I never used a screen protector while my iPhone was in the Defender case. The Otterbox case is engineered to protect your device. I'm not sure why the salesman suggested you use both. I used the Otterbox Defender case for a little over a year and my iPhone was flawless when I removed it. Hope this helps.

  • Should I get a screen protector for my iPad air 2?

    SShould I get a screen protector for my iPad air 2?

    It's a personal decision. I've had a screen protector on my iPad 2 since the day it was bought. Same with my touch 4 and 5 (and I was able to sell my touch 4 to Best Buy in 'like new' condition thanks to a screen protector and case). other people swear never to use them and their devices are just fine.
    I have two nieces that like to use my iPad so I appreciate the protector and the ability to clean it off without worrying about messing with the screen. Others don't like how the screen protector feels and won't use them. So I'd say it boils down to how are you going to use your device. Will it sit on the coffee table and never leave the house and only be used by adults? then you can probably do fine without one. Gonna take it to school  and on vacation and all over the place using it wherever? then you should consider a screen protector and case
    Just don't go for the super cheap ones off amazon. They're cheap for a reason. I use a zagg one. it is expensive but it has a lifetime guarantee. If it's messed up protecting your device they replace it free. So worth it for me.

  • Should I get a screen protector for my iPad or better buy a sleeve?

    I already have a belkin case for my iPad ( which is way better compared to the apple case I returned mine and got the belkin instead)
    Now I'm planning on buying a screen protector for my iPad Or a sleeve for traveling... Is it worth the buy to get an iPad screen protector? Or should I wait and look for more option when choosing a screen protector ?

    Don't waste the money on a screen protector. Greasy fingers are easy to clean with a dry lint-free cloth since the screen is oleophobic or resistant to oil. You might actually have a worse experience with the screen protector. The glass is almost resistant to scratching. If my iPhone experience is anything, I've throw it into my pocket with keys, and I have no scratches on the screen.
    Get the sleeve. I like the Apple version, because I can prop it up on my desk, and it does protect the screen when you're not using it.

  • Do I need a screen protector for my iPhone 5 if I have a wallet case

    Is a screen protector important if I have a wallet case?

    depend on how you treat the device
    I never used a screen protector on any ios device I've ever owned

  • Do you recommend using a screen protector for iPhone 5?

    Does iPhone 5's screen scratch easily with normal use? I'm really careful with my Apple products, but I don't want to have scratches on my screen.

    had
    2 ipod  touch never used one
    1 iphone never used one but did crack the back glass a bit a screen protector would not have helped there though
    1 ipad crack the front screen a bit from drop doubt a protector would have helped
    don't really have much in the ways of scratches on any of them but if you are the type who will try to sell
    the device  you own as soon as a new one is released then maybe both a rugged case and screen protector would be a good investment

  • Should I buy a Screen Protector for my iPod Touch 4G?

    Hi, in a couple days, I'm going to be buying a iPod Touch 4G 32GB, and I really want a Screen Protector, but I don't know which one to buy. I have been looking at the ZAGG Screen Protector, but not too sure.

    I say yes.... get a screen protector
    keeps scratches away
    you have no problems throwing your device into your pocket with keys
    when the glass breaks, the screen protector keeps you from getting your hands cut
    With regards to Zagg...
    do your research about installation..... check out YouTube for Zagg product installation
    do you feel comfortable doing this yourself, spraying liquids on your device
    consider a professional installation service with cheaper alternative products. There's lots of these guys in malls around my neighborhood
    there are matte and glossy films.... I like glossy

  • 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?
    Eric   

    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.

  • Is it necessary to have a screen protector for the iphone 5?

    does it help protect the screen because it affects the resolution when it exists....

    I'm note sure I quite agree with tonefox, but taking his point, it may or may not be necassary for you. While I do not have one - nor feel I need one - for my iPad, I certainly do have on on my iPhone. I've seen the conditions of all of my cell phones at the end of a two year contract. Scratched like they have been on the bad end of a cat fight. So I got an Otterbox Commuter for the phone, which included the screen protector. Even if I eventually choose to go commando with the phone in terms of a case (and I might), I'll keep a screen protector on it.
    BTW: a decent screen protector should NOT effect the resolution of the screen. That's typically a sign of an inferior one.

  • Which one should I use to compress video for iPod/iPhone?

    Hi
    I have a quicktime movie. Should I export from the quicktime player to iPod setting or should I go through compressor?
    The last time I did it through both applications-- Quicktime was fast--Compressor took a while but the quality of them looked the same.
    What do you guys think?
    Thanks

    I normally use the iPhone preset in Compressor.

  • 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 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.

  • Does anyone know if the new iPad fits the Powersupport screen protector for the iPad 2? And if so, where can I get it installed?

    Hey, I was just wondering because I am purchasing my New iPad on Sunday! So excited! But I want to order a screen protector before I go and purchase it. I heard you could get screen protectors installed at Best Buy, but I'm not sure!! Please help!     

    I just got the powersupport crystal fil for the iPad2 and installed it on my new iPad (3rd gen). It fits perfectly and so far it doesn't affect anything (proximity, portrait/landscape rotation). in my opinion it's the best screen protector for the iPhone so naturally I thought i'd give it a go on the iPad (no adhesive, easy install, great quality etc). One note though, I'm not sure if the anti-glare one would work well on the new iPad with the retina display. I know the iPhone 4 uses a different one than the 3GS. Oh and Best Buy doesn't sell the powersupport.
