– or: Best. Investment. Ever.
I dropped my phone on a hard floor yesterday. Nasty sound and it looked bad too. I didn’t have time to examine it closely right away, so I had good time to think about insurance, Nexus 6P and the One M10 release date; plus feeling silly and clumsy.
However, upon closer examination the screen protector had indeed protected the screen:

After:
A €25 sheet of plastic saved a €350 device (or whatever it may be worth 2 years after launch), so that’s like 14 times return on investment, earned back in 6 months. Really a good investment, my best ever. Or maybe it was just luck in unluck, like it is when you get pay back on an insurance policy.
Really good is that only the day before yesterday did the screen protector start to get loose in one corner. I thought about removing it right away, but fortunately I didn’t.
I can whole-heartily recommend putting a protector on your phone. It will be as responsive as ever, the inevitable scratches will be in the protector and bad drops may be survived.
