Thunderbolt screen scratches easy?

Jrife · Jun 14, 2011

I have a tiny scratch on top left part of my screen. Nothing in my pockets to scratch this thing. Only had phone under two months. Now my samsung fascinate been through wars and no scratches on it's screen. Hell I baby the thunderbolt and scratches this easy?

Thought this is gorilla glass? The samsung fascinate is yet the tbolt glass just isn't the same quality as the sammy. Different grades of gorilla glass? Seems like htc use the cheapest parts it can get its hands on.

Thankfully no scratches here....then again, I like to think my screen protector helps.

I got my first scratch today on my March 17 Bolt. Considering i dropped it screen down on a rock, the scratch Is small..

Gorilla glass is not impossible to scratch. My dad works at Corning and they make glass even more resistant to scratching but it cost more.

Even though Gorilla Glass is Scratch Resistant & is on the Thunderbolt. I did decide to put a Zagg Invisible Shield Screen Protector on it and have not regretted it one bit. Best Screen protector out on the market I think. Well worth the investment. Check them out and the amazing demo video they show trying to scratch the screen of a cell pone with the Invisible Shield on it.

Over a month, with the keys, nothing. Agreed it is inferior to the Droid's glass.

I have had my Tbolt for 1 month and already the screen is scratched. I need to put a protection screen on it.

I started with a Zagg, but didn't like the way it worked on the TB. I pulled it off and have not had any scratches yet. I use the Seidio belt clip case.

FWIW

I bought some screen protectors, but never put them on when I saw they were using Gorilla Glass. Same experience as you all with my X. Face down on pavement multiple times, keys (and misc.) in pocket, etc. with no scratches. I think I'll put one on now though.
