Yeah...My Neo Is a Month Old And No Scratches At All.

but be warned, you can damage it even if is Scratch resistant.
Nails and sharp stuff can make Scratch.

Yep mine is a little bit scratch :-S

Mine to, unfortunately.

my neo too

anyone else seen the video on xperiablog about the Xperia Active? the one where the guy tries to destroy the screen.. with knives, including craft knife and hits it with hammers, Wrenches etc..
He just wipes the screen after all the abuse and it looks perfect! he even runs over the phone with his Jeep..
If the glass on the Neo is the same stuff then it should be pretty much indestructable.. thinking of taking my screen protector off too!

I'll keep the screen protector on as long as I don't have any scratches.

good for you

Had the same thoughts, good to see this thread here, So, putting it ur pocket, using getting it back in, playing game (With short nails xD) and normal usement, will keep the screen unscratched ?and people who got to scratch it, how did they get to scratch it ?
Not good to have a big scratched screen, u know.
So should i take my 1.dollar bad screen protector ?}
Thanks

Scratched already.....but anyway looks good.

anti-shatter film?
Does anyone know if the Neo comes with factory applied anti-shatter film like X10i, Play, Arc, etc.? That film was really easy to scratch on my old Play, but you could remove it and replace it with ordinary protector.

I only have a almost invisible scratch on the protective film, after months of use.

Is the glass on the moto razr pretty tough? My wife does not use a case or screen protector on it.....

Scratch removal

Hey all.
I recently got my x 10 and after reading these forums assumed the screen came with a protector on it. I checked it when I got it and it looks like it has one. But after trying to remove it am starting to think its just the outline of the reflective/shiny surface. If anyone can confirm that it is a protector that would be great.
Anyways I seem to some how of gotten a light scratch on my screen. Its very light but enough to get the rainbow effect and be annoying. Does anyone know of a scratch removal solution that is safe to use on the x 10 screen.
Look forward to hearing back.
Regards,
Dylan

I can confirm that there's a screen-protector on the X10 from the fabric, removed it myself, just be a bit rough with it
Have done some research and it seems novus plastic polish is the way to go. Has anyone used this before and know of it will be ok for use on the x10 shiny screen??

Thought i should just add.. the pree applied protector is quite hard to peel of.. once you get it going it it's soon done but it's hard to make that first corner let go and you have to pull it quite hard to rip it of. but it should not leave any uggly marks or rests. did not leave any for me atleast (i removed mine couse i messed up and made a huge mark in it)
Hey. Thanks for the replies. Just a little worried about trying to get it off if its not really the screen protector lol.

Did you ever give it a go? I have a couple of scratches on mine and would love to get them off. Have heard talk of white toothpaste being valuable of phone screens but I'm a little hesitant about that...
I removed the pre applied film and have never scratched the screen.

Can anyone tell me how durable the screen is from scratching? nd I heard that the protection was there to prevent it from screen shattering on a drop is that true?

A thin piece of film will not stop the glass from shattering, its not like the film car windows use. I've been using my x10 with no film and all is fine.

My daughter and I both have x10's. I've dropped my phone several times on ceramic tiles without issues. She on the other hand often drops hers on concrete and keeps it with keys in a tight fit since she doesn't use a purse and just shoves the phone into her jeans. She has pitting and scratches.
It's mineral glass similar to that on a good watch.

I've dropped mine repeatedly, and dont have a single scratch, i do however have a crack at the bottom of the screen, but that took my 78 kg on top of the phone and a metal button to do, plus falling :/
How to remove a screen protector
Well the easiest way to do it would be to use a piece of scotch-tape.
If you apply the scotch-tape to one of your protectors corners, it should be fairly easy to peel it off...
Felt pretty stupid when i found out that I have 2 protector s on. The stock and the spare one supplied but I've let them on as my 4 year old plays on it often.

im very tempted to remove it but dont think i will. i have horrible luck with touch screen phones lol
i broke my previous iphone screen 3 times.
Wow thanks guys this is amazing. I have had my x10 since may 2010 and I only just found out it has a screen protector. I have taken it off and now all the annoying surface scratches has gone.
Thanks!!!!!!

No way... When I got the phone there was an obvious cover stick on the phone which I assumed was the screen protector and thought how bad it was and removed it straight away. I just realised that that wasn't it and I still have one on there. Man that's a fantastic protector, I didn't even know it was there..! Brilliant!

[Q] Gorilla Glass?

Hi,
Does Samsung Galaxy Ace has Gorilla Glass.? On corning site they have mentioned it has Gorilla Glass, but anyone here can confirm it. Have any users scratched their screen? or any other experiences to share? Any using a scratch guard?
I got quite a few little scratches, not a big problem, but for me "scratch-resistant" is something else
i have a very tiny scratch about 0.5cm on my screen and i am not using any screen protector. Got to find one soon.
I suggest to use an anti-fingermark screen protector for SGA.
Yes, it has. Watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv4Llv3UedY
One of mine has deep scratches. So I dont belive its gorillaglass or else gorillaglass is not so different
Yes it does. Check Gsmarena.com if you want to confirm.
Yes it's gorilla glass. My phone has no protection and for over a month with my keys and pens inside my bag, it still has no scratch.

Best way to fix small scratch on touchscreen?

I have a very small scratch on my screen. I can't really notice but I have ocd with my phone. Are there any solutions to fix it easily out just use a screen protector?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I could be wrong, but with the Gorilla Glass used on this device - it will not polish out like some older device glass.
In the past, I have taken my phone to a jeweler and they have polished out small imperfections - but have not had to do that with this phone.
I ordered my phone off eBay and was disappointed there was tiny tiny scratches, so tiny you would have to be ocd to find them. I applied a screen protector and I can't see them anymore, j just know they are there!

Noooo way

After many privacy protectors, mirror screen protectors and matte screen protectors that didn't work properly
I put a privacy protector on my XOOM and to my surprise, it worked properly!
The privacy protector on the XS left lines very visible and made the screen almost unviewable, the mirror protector on the XS was horrible and left a rainbow tint on the screen and was VERY unviewable and finally the matte protector made the screen seem like there was water or oil all over the screen because of those colored dots everywhere. And to my shock none of those appeared if put on a Motorola xoom. I have come to the conclusion that the xperia s has a very weird LCD screen, does this happen to your XS? Is there any way to stop this?
All of my complaining was due to the xperia s being weird and not because they supplied a faulty protector -_- but they should've tested it before they started selling it!

I also come to a conclusion that you should sell your Xperia S.

I allso got rainbows on my screen protector, and even sometimes naked fish. And then i say to my self - Noooo waaaaaayyyy!!!
-_-
Does anyone know a brand that makes a matte or privacy protector specifically for this type of screen
It's bugging me that I can only use a glossy protector
And why does this happen
I have an matte protector.
Its well for me i had the factoryshield under it

[Q] Does the phone need a screen protector?

I'm going to upgrade to this phone from my Galaxy S3 which never really needed a screen protector. Does the z2 need one or is the glass scratch proof like gorilla glass?
Thanks,
Ash

The Z2 use3s Dragontail glass which is very strong, but slightly less scratch resistent than Gorilla glass,
However I think it's personal preference as to whether you use a screen protector or not..
I personally always use a screen protector just in case & have never had any problems doing so...
It came with one so I put it on there and its actually pretty ok.
Never had one on any of my phones before but this one has a nice matte finish to it. As the whole front it glass is worth it imo
Does the z2 have a shatter proof film? If so they scratch very easily and would need a protector but as pointed out since implementing spf's sony has been giving protectors in the box's of most handsets.

The glass of Z1 is scratch proof. But there will be some scratches after long time using.
So if you can't bear any tiny scratches , you'd better use a screen protector.
I feel a protector is always nice

How does it compare against the iphone 5s? I never needed a screen protector for mine.
Mine only came with a screen protector for the front in the box which I applied straight away, but I had to wait 3 days for a protector for the back to arrive, in that time its got several ugly scratches on the back glass.
I'm rather disappointed to be honest as it's not been abused, its been in the same pocket I kept my z1 in for 6 months without a mark to the screen protector. I was hoping Sony had put one of the easily scratched shatter proof films on the back, but sadly it seems there isn't a pre applied film and the glass scratches very easily.
Now I have a 3 day old Z2 which looks older than my 6 month old Z1

Because mine sits in a case, I applied the free front one and cut the corner of the factory applied back cover until the rear protector arrives off amazon.

Yh that cream looking sheet that was on the back, it's not a protector as such and looks mank but as mines in a case is will stop the scratches from trapped dirt etc.

When I got my Z2 the screen protectors were a good price so I got one, figured it couldn't hurt. Would like to get one the back as well.

I probably overpaid for my Nillkin 9H explosion proof tempered glass screen protector it feels every bit as good as the glass screen underneath. Plus it doesn't matt the screen colours down like the protector that comes with the phone.

I am thinking the regular screen protectors are difficult to stick and may not be waterproof, which kind defeats the purpose of having a waterproof phone!
