Does Tempered Glass Really Protect the Phone Screen?
It seems different people have different experiences with tempered glass screen protectors. No wonder others are getting skeptical about whether these really give the protection touted by their manufacturers. Some say it works, while with others it seems like it could still break the screen it is supposed to protect.
What’s the truth about Tempered Glass screen protectors? Several people share their experiences with the thing.
• “I’ve never used it and never had a cracked screen. I am skeptical, but have never tried it myself. I did get minor scratches, so that’s the only reason if I decide to get one.”
• “Well, I had a tempered glass protector on my phone. The protector cracked quite nicely but the actual screen was fine. I don’t know whether or not the screen would have cracked without the protector, but who knows?”
• “I’m pretty sure it won’t do much to protect the screen when the phone is dropped. I have a glass screen protector on my phone just to keep it from getting scratched. Hopefully my phone thin case will do what it can to prevent any major dings or cracks to my phone if and when I do drop it.”
• “I was at work and my phone fell out of my pocket about 15 feet onto metal grating. The glass screen protector was cracked but my screen was not.”
• “I think it’s very useful for light impacts, not heavy ones. Like when you drop it face down on the ground, it’s going to crack it and your screen. But when you accidently drop something solid on your phone, it can save your screen.”
• “I think that scratch protection is the most it would offer.”
