iPhone 6 Plus: to screen protect or not to screen protect: that's the question

bought the plus last week. Beautiful screen. still debating myself whether I should go get a screen protector. The screen looks and feels tough to me already and with or without screen protector, I have always been a gentle user. I am willing to accept some tiny scratches under the light a year from now. I mean, after all it's only a phone.

Are you guys using screen protector?

I'm not and never have. Besides, I've got AppleCare Plus so it's a non-issue for me....;)

I have a glass screen protector on mine. I won't go with another plastic protector. They scratch too easily.

Re: iPhone 6 Plus: to screen protect or not to screen protect: that's the question

Up until this generation of iPhone, I would have scoffed at the idea...but after watching it save my wife's device not once, not twice but THREE times now, I'm a firm believer that they are well worth it...not to mention the Zagg glass covers really don't even look like anything on the device itself. I won't own another iPhone without using one personally...

I'm not that particularly careful with my phones and I've never needed to use a screen protector. Phone is usually in my pocket with nothing else and my iPhone screens have held up just fine.

I personally find screen protectors awful looking.

Anti glare screen protector for me. It's a nice matte finish, looks and feels great, and on my previous iPhone 6 it got a nasty scratch but the screen underneath was untouched. So when I got the Plus, it was a no brainer. I do have Apple Care but I'd rather not have to go through the hassle of replacing my device if I don't have to.

I use a Spigen protector that's plastic just for scratch protection.

I never have... but I am one who takes good care of my stuff... and have AppleCate+

I am the same way and I take very good care of my gear so it's a non issue and I also have Apple Care plus.

I have hated them and never use them and have never scratched or damaged a screen, but i got the Glass one and really like it for my new 6 Plus 128Gb, no bubbles, smooth and looks good with my UAG maverick. Will probably get AC too just incase. This phone is worth $1445 here in Australia.

I have & really like the glass screen protector. I carry my phone in back pocket & toss mine in a tool bag when I get busy.
Let me add though, I am OCD and scratch free

If there is a quality tempered glass screen protector for it, which obviously there is for any iPhone, then I would. The feel is the same to me and there is really no disadvantages with it.

Previously always used those protectors. Glass, plastic whatever. Don't do it anymore. I hate putting them on and they seem to scratch easier than the actual glass. So then you either have to use your phone with a scratched protector or put another one on and it will get scratched eventually as well.

I honestly never had a screen protector on any of my phones, but I think you should get a protector. Whats the harm in getting a protector, you are only saving yourself from a cracked screen. Plus, you wont even notice a big difference with a protector and without. Just for the heck of it, get a screen protector. :)
