Completely not needed. I don't have a mark on mine after several drops and my wife's has bounced around her purse for over a year without a scratch. Gorilla Glass was great and I can only imagine how awesome Gorilla Glass 2 is.

I'm sorry but I don't believe this. Clean your screen with a soft cloth, turn it off, and hold it at an angle. I guarantee you will see blemishes in the screen.

I noticed a light scratch on mine on Monday. Opened it Friday night so not that long. Nothing else in my pocket (keys, etc) so who knows. Not scratch proof at all. YMMV.

I ordered the iPhone 5 Anti-Glare/Anti Fingerprint Screen Protector,, i think other guys used this kind Screen Protector before.
View attachment 19953

I always prefer the anti glare/fingerprint matte finish like this one. It really hides the annoying fingerprints and grease unfortunately it doesn't do the retina display justice. On my i4S I always preferred this type of screen protector. Before I even got my i5 last Friday I already had these screen protector. Well today I switched back to the clear glossy finish. I can manage dealing with fingerprints etc. The retina display on a clear screen protector does no suffer but with a anti glare matte finish it does. The difference it's very obvious. For now I'm very content. I have both clear gloss finish screen protector for front and back.

Zagg Shield installed since the day I purchased it. Loving it too. Also considering getting the back protection

Is there any disadvantage of using screen protector on the phone? I have heard it's bad for the eyes. Is it true?

How in the Wide World of Sports could a screen protector be bad for your eyes?! Makes no sense.

I went with the clear Coat this time instead of the Zagg. Very NICE! Crytsal clear and seemed easier to install than the Zagg. I went with the FullBody Armour this time! Didn't want to scratch the Alum back.

Highly recommend the SGP Oleophobic. Best screen protector I ever used. And my wife agrees.

I didn't have a screen protector on my iPhone 5 and had been monitoring what was in my pockets and then I noticed a light hazey scratch on the screen luckily apple store close quick exchange with no problems. I am going with body armor with screen protector. I have seen nothing officially supporting the use of gorilla glass 2. But It is hard for me to believe gorilla glass 2 would scratch so easily

I've tried all of these.

1.sgp ultra crystal. Fingerprint magnet but crystal clear. Cutouts a little big

2 sgp ultra oleo-phobic. Fingerprint magnet, crystal clear. Cutouts are a little big

3 sgp ultra fine. Smooth clean and gorgeous, hazy screen but worth it. Cutouts a little big.

4 media devil ultra crystal. AMAZING!!!!!! cut outs are tight, rigid feels like quality amazing customer service on par with apple. Finger print magnet. Best 11 dollars plus 5 shipping, I spent took it 7 days to get here from Europe but well worth the money.

Had the same. SGP ultra crystal covers it right up. :)

I've never liked a skin or protector on my phone so I'll be getting a leather wallet for transporting my baby around :)
