glass screens are so durable these days, for a phone you are going to have for 2 years, you might as well enjoy it without an ugly film covering the whole thing for the off chance you figure out how to scratch it.

I've never been a big fan of them. I think that anything tough/sharp enough to scratch the glass...is going to rip right through one anyway.

It's pretty easy to scratch a glass screen. Since force = pressure/ area it will not take much to scratch a screen if you get a micro particle on the screen. Once it's scratched it will take an automotive buffer with an abrasive paste to get out!
I usually apply Boxwave ClearTouch crystal screen protectors. They are durable and have over 90% transparency. - 02-11-2013, 11:46 AM #8
My son has a Zagg screen protector on his phone (it's an iPhone 5, but the same principle applies). He knocked it off his night table onto the floor, screen down, on top of a screw on the floor. Don't ask why there was a screw on his floor. I don't know! Anyway, it made no mark on either the screen or the screen protector. zagg.com. I found them too expensive, and am looking for an alternative so I don't have to look at a scratched up screen for years after it inevitably happens - usually the first few days of ownership, just like what happens with a new car!

He found it at first had bubbles under it, but they went away after a time. - 02-11-2013, 12:08 PM #9
I've used the Best Skins Ever, iShieldz, and cheap screen protectors from ebay in the past, and recently I've been putting the cheap protectors with anti-glare/matte finish on most of my phones and devices. These don't hold any finger prints and I enjoy the frosted finish from the protector. I used to like the 'wrapped' look that BSE and iShieldz would give but after a while they started to build up gunk on the sides of the protector and it looks bad after some time.
Going the route of the anti-glare screen protectors, usually you will get 3 or so in a pack and they are fairly durable comparing them to their more expensive counterpart. They do take some time to get used to putting on but after a couple tries it gets easier.
If you're looking to try them out just go on google and search 'blackberry z10 matte screen' and some will come up.
Good luck!intellekt!

Every phone I have ever used, touch screen or not, has had a screen protector and while the screen protector has gotten scratched never has my screen because of the protector. I can change out a scratched screen protector for a lot cheaper then I can a new screen.
The same goes for all tablets. Always have a screen protector. I will not touch a device until I have put a screen protector on it.
P.S. I have a 3 inch thick glass dining room table... It really is NOT hard for glass to get scratched.Former:Motorola MicroTac-Motorola V120x-Nokia 3280-Audiovox 8600-Audiovox 8410-Samsung A920-LG Vx8500 (Chocolate)-BlackBerry Pearl 8130-LG Vx9700 (Dare)-BlackBerry Curve 8530-BlackBerry Torch 9800-BlackBerry Torch 9810

I picked up an iShieldz protector on the weekend because that was all that was available in Ottawa. I've never been a big fan of the iShieldz stuff, but this one feels pretty good on the screen. You barely notice it is on there. The Source had a deal on, $50 for the protector, the flip cover and a charger. Pretty good deal.

I got mine from Rogers. It's the tru matte anti glare one. Went on super easy (no extra liquid required) and I'm a real stickler for it to be perfect and I did a pretty decent job the first time. $20 + gst and you get two of them.

I tend to get iSmooth screen protectors, they are thin and don't bubble.

I got a set of three cheap one from eBay. Very good, clear and cheaper than a new screen.
