Would the iPhone be durable with it? I mean I tried best skin ever and it gave a horrible result, orange skin, dust and scratches.

Even cheap adhesive ones don't work, so all I can do now is go without one... that a good idea?

I have never used a screen protector on any of my iPhones and have never gotten a scratch on it

They DO, in fact, get small scratches without a protector. I use an Anti-Glare from the AT&T store.

This is totally user preference. Fine scratches can happen but doesn't mean they will, so if you think you can be careful enough not to have sharp objects near your screen you'll probably be ok without one. As for myself, I prefer the added security that comes with having a screen protector on all of my iDevices. I use a Power Support HD screen protector on my 4 and soon to be 4S. Power Support protectors are very easy to apply and usually go on nicely on the first application.

Are the power supports good then? I'm trying to hunt one down that's easy to apply, after the Best Skin Ever attempt, I'm not impressed.

I know for a fact I could find a scratch. After owning probably fifty different iPhones they DO scratch.

Wait, what? How could you have had 50 different iPhones, when Apple has only had like 5 of them so far?

In my opinion, they're great. I've used them on all 3 of my iPhones, and the iPad 1 and 2. Supper easy to apply and believe it or not it went on correctly the first time I tried even on a screen as big as the iPad. You can get 2 protectors in a pack now for $14 which I think is a good price considering the protection that it offers.

Yes they do get small scratches over time. My last one I was SUPER careful with it and thought I was scratch free. I looked one day at the screen and when turning it slightly and getting the right angle, sure enough there was a scratch.
