Thanks for guinea pigging this one, it makes me feel a little better about going naked (should i remove my Invisible Shield).
But i will say that it didnt look as though you were really puttin the boots to it, as they say. I mean, i dont blame you, i sure wouldnt have. I think what you did probably represents your average, every day wear and tear of having your phone in your pocket with keys, change, etc.
But the real scare for me (and i think most people who have or are planning to get a screen protector), is if/when i drop my phone on the ground (Because it will happen) and it goes sliding across the street...All that sand...thats the reality, and that's when i want to KNOW that my screen will absolutely NOT get scratched. The only way to KNOW that, is to get a screen protector.
Unless i see you, or someone else take the phone outside and rub it on the ground face down on pavement, i won't be satisfied and will continue to use screen protectors.
I do have a case though and, as with almost every case, the ridges on this case prevent the screen from touching the surface when laying face down. But again, it's that small chance it MIGHT happen that worries me. And with my luck, even if it's a 1% chance, it'll happen to me.
Thanks again.
