What is a screen protector?
A screen protector is an additional sheet of material — usually polyurethane or laminated tempered glass — that can be attached to the screen of an electronic device and protect it against physical damage.
Plastic screen protectors generally cost less than glass and are thinner and more flexible. At the same price, glass will resist scratches better than plastic, and feel more like the device’s screen, though higher-priced plastic protectors may be better than the cheapest tempered glass models since glass will shatter or crack with sufficient impact force.
Screen protectors’ surfaces can be glossy or matte. Glossy protectors retain the display’s original clarity, while a matte (“anti-glare”) surface facilitates readability in bright environments and mitigates stains such as fingerprints.
What to consider before you buy a screen protector
We all know those screen guards will prevent our phones from easily getting cracked. But how do you buy the right one? Put these into consideration while choosing to buy your next screen protector.
a) Outdoor Visibility
If installed properly, a tempered glass screen protector will not enhance glare of any sort if installed properly.
b) Heat Resistant
The unique process that tempered glass goes through in production allows it to wither high temperatures.
c) Reduced Glare
Tempered glass screen protectors cut down on the glare coming from a smartphone’s screen by using advanced technology to reduce the consistency of reflected images. This ultimately allows a smartphone user’s eyes to strain less thus enabling owners to utilize their devices more comfortably by reducing eye tension.
d) Better Feel
As a consumer or user you always like to enjoy your Smartphone’s seamless feel and performance. The well-tempered glass screen protector feels like a non-existent glass layer on top and you feel great whenever you touch it. The feel is certainly better than plastic screen protectors and the durability of glass screen protectors gives users the same smooth feeling in the long run. Put into consideration, a conventional scratch guard on the other hand won’t feel like glass, but plastic.
