We have compiled a list of 5 screen protectors that are the best on the market and are highly recommended by us.
Why you need a screen protector:
Fragile Screen
Most screen nowadays are very fragile. On top of that, screen replacement can be very expensive. This is even more important for larger screens. The bigger your screen the greater the chance that you may crack the screen. This applies even for phones that come with Gorilla Glass.
No change in experience
The best part about having a screen protector is that your use experience is usually not changed. Many screen protectors are built to protect your phone without interfering with your phone’s functionality. The vast functions of the Samsung Galaxy S10 allow means that the screen protectors have to be made specifically for this phone. With a screen protector your touch on the phone is also not changed. Thus, to gain such a protection without having to envelope your phone in a bulky case and while making your phone feel the same way is great!
Cheap
Most screen protectors are quite affordable especially when compared to the price of a screen replacement. A good price range to look at would be $20 per piece of screen protector. These screen protectors are usually sold in pack of 2 or 3. Screen replacement on the other hand could cost up to $300 for a Samsung Galaxy S10. Curved screens generally are not easy or simple to replace.
Easy to Fix
Gone are the fays where you have to go down to your mobile shop and pay a steep fee to install a screen protector. The ESR kits on this list all come with an easy to follow instruction guide and video that you must watch before installing your screen protector. This video is very simple and ensures that you can install the screen protector yourself. This saves you having to pay the labor cost and time consumed to install one at a mobile shop.
Types of Screen protectors:
Hard/Tempered Glass
The first and most common type of screen protectors are the tempered type. These are the hard glass types that you see. These help to protect your phone from high impact incidents like dropping your phone on the floor or dropping something on your phone. These are usually slightly thicker and you will have to check if the ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor function is supported.
Soft Flexible TPU Screen Protector
These screen protectors are less common and are differentiated by their flexible and thin nature. However, these protectors are more for protection against minor scratches against keys and coins in the pocket rather than protection against drops and knocks. However, some people prefer these as they are thinner than tempered glass and barely noticeable.
