Posted 24 Mar 2012 · Report post Iphones are deceptively heavy. I haven't dropped mine , yet. The droid I was using previously got dropped a couple of times, but, fortunately, the screen did not get broken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 25 Mar 2012 · Report post I use a screen protector on my Motorola Droid, not the Zagg stuff, just a nice clear one. I have to change it out once in over 2 years. It's not for shock protection and I also avoid using a Dremel on my phone screen -- my finger works fine -- but I just prevents scratches. Cheaper to replace the protector sheet than he screen. Maybe it's not necessary, I haven't really done a side-by-side comparison. I did decide against the more permanent Zagg product, they have a kind of orange peel texture and who wants to look through that? Those are the ones that advertise their invulnerability, but they're not particularly attractive and the cheaper one has worked just fine for a long time.
