Accessories Get a screen cover now!! The Evo screen is NOT scratch proof!

I noticed a scratch on my screen today too. Luckily, it's not on the display, but rather down below the "home" key. I have no idea how it got there; I've been really careful with the phone. I haven't dropped it, and I only carry it in my pocket by itself.

Yeah, I'm considering a screen protector now though. At least my scratch is not on the display.

How did you scratch it?

I have absolutely no idea whatsoever how I scratched it.

I have not dropped the phone. I keep it in my pocket with a leather wallet (no metal on it at all), paper money, and a plastic metrocard holder. Keys and coins and metal zippo lighter are ALWAYS in my other pocket.

That's it. No clue how it happened.

When the screen is clean, it is barely visible, but smudges & fingerprints on the screen really bring it out.

I'm hoping when I put the screen cover on tonight it will hide it completely, but I think it is equally likely that the cover will make it even more obvious.
