    Not, device feels better. Screens are very cheap and anyone can replace it within 5 minutes.

    Get a clear screen protector. It won't affect the clarity and will take the brunt of scratches. most anti-glare protectors seem to add a grainy effect to the screen.

    A screen protector, like a case, is much cheaper than replacing a broken screen ($30+ plus downtime, warranty claims...).

    I also don't find a screen protector to interfere with my use and it provides protection from grit and scratches.

    My Q10 fell several times with the screen toward the ground. I changed the scratched screen protector film. The device screen remained unscratched like new!

    **** naked is too risky. I go naked with the screen protector. I can deal with bums on the body here and there but a scratch on my screen drives me crazy.

    None for me and it's doing quite well without but you can always get a scratch so if it's a concern, go with a protector

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. So I think I will go with a screen protector. But which to choose?? I've seen some where you can still see some smudging and fingerprints...any suggestions??

    Never used one in the 11 months I have had the z30. No scratches.

    I always use one. If you get a good quality one and apply it will it looks great. I find the glossy protectors feel better to interact with than the matte ones.

    I use Ghost Armor screen protector. Have it on my Z10 for over 2 years and it looks as good as the day I bought it.

    I have used Zagg screen protectors on my 9900 and Q10 and have no issues what-so-ever with their application.

    I use a tempered glass screen protector. At first, it feels awkward how thick it is, but then touching the screen feels natural, just thicker. But it's great.

    I've actually dropped my phone a bunch of times, and at about the nth time, there was a crack... on the screen protector and not the screen.

    Mine has been screen protected since day one. I even got a pair of screen protectors from BlackBerry for the Z30 that I haven't touched, if ever the one I'm using now peel off. It has acquired quite a lot of tiny scratches over time. Just imagine if you don't have one.

    Used tempered glass on Q10, Z10 and now Z30. It's easier to clean, and more slippery than other screen protector.

    I did crack some, but you have to strike it on its edge. Otherwise, I've dropped it on the screen with no issues.

    Definitely get a screen protector if you wear any kind of jewelry.

    I would get one. I am sold on using them. I use the military grade screen protectors on all of my devices (there may be something better out there). I dropped a hammer from 3 feet onto my phone laying on the floor with the claw hitting the screen and did no damage other than marring the screen protector (not on purpose).

    I occasionally take my Z30 out of it's Otterbox Defender case while at home, because I get a better typing experience, but for the most part it stays in it's protective case.

    Rock'n the awesome Z30 STA100-5 on 10.3.2.2474

    It's the old 'you can pay me now or you can pay me later commercial'. Pay a little now for a screen protector or a lot later when you drop and break your screen. Your choice...
