I've always used ishieldz creen protectors on all my devices. So since April when I first got my BlackBerry I've installed a screen protector. It lifted and came off yesterday and I was surprised how much more tactile the screen is without a film of plastic over top! Should I put another one on or just leave it protector free!? I've never not used one so just wondering what the ramifications are long term!?

I never use them. I'd rather use my device and enjoy it than have the experience worsened by an ugly screen "protector". Small scratches aren't a big deal, they don't ruin functionality. Large scratches are difficult to get and are generally not protected by a thin piece of plastic anyway. You're much more likely to drop and Crack the screen than you are to get a giant scratch.

Then even after two years if I have a couple of light scratches, who cares? You can get a new phone.

Granted you will lose little tactile or screen responsiveness, but I can live with that compared to seeing a screen that has scratches.

Imagine, every time you see your phone, you see that scratch. And don't forget that to replace a screen costs almost as 1/3 or a new phone. Ouch!

[dlrogers81]

Definitely install a screen protector! That's the first thing I do when I get a phone. Screens always seem to get scratched so easy, I just never want to take the risk.

Consider the Spigen SGP Steinheil screen protector.

I'm going to go grab a Zagg next chance I get. I've got an Invisible Shield on my Z10 and I actually really like the texture, and the smudge-proofedness. My Q10 after just a day is driving me nuts with finger prints.

Invisible shield or SPG

I don't like iShield protectors because they're too rubbery and get in the way of swipes. I use generic clear glossy type protectors that feel just like the glass, but do get scratched more easily than an iShield. I go through about two a year, but at around $10 after tax for two, it's cheap enough.

[Territc2000]

If you want a scratch free screen.... protect! protect! protect.

If you are quite happy with your screen getting scratched, then no need to protect.

Consider the Spigen SGP Steinheil screen protector.

Im totally dedicated to ISHIELDZ as they have a life time replacement guarantee and at my local TBOOTH they will just do an on the spot free warranty replacement and put a new one on for me and that's on all of my devices.

I've never used a screen protector on any of my BB's

You might wanna give them Glass Protectors a try, recently switched from my beloved Brando Protector's to a Glass one and the difference is night and day =).

Clarivue has one for the Q10: Blackberry Q10 Tempered Glass Screen Protector - XT-Glass | Clarivue =).

[lcgoldman]

Ghost Armor. You won't even know it's there.

[Sequester#WN]

Never used one on any phone, and I literally owned dozens. I had a scratch only once on my SGS3, don't know how that happened.

Just make sure you never have anything else in that pocket where your phone is and you are safe.

I used a screen protector for a while...was not happy because it seemed to generate a static electricity that attracted all sorts of lint...and I'd be constantly wiping that away. After a few weeks I got rid of it...happier to be touching the glass it feels better and my phone stays cleaner. I've never used a screen protector on any of my blackberries. Hey, if it gets scratched and that bothers you, then you can throw a screen protector over it.

I used clairevue XT glass once and it lifted on my samsung sg4 around the earpiece and frontal camera area.

If you buy and sell devices often, get a screen protector. Devices with scratch-free screens sell at a higher price. It's cheap insurance that pays off when it's time to sell our device.

I've never used a screen protector, just a holster and never had any scratches. I've never dropped any of my phones either... and hope that the probability gods aren't listening...

[deercreekmichael]

One grain of sand stuck on the inner lining of a holster or pouch is enough to put a scratch on any unprotected screen. It happened to my 9900 and the microscopic scratch always made me sad each time I noticed it.
