I just stated my opinion. Or can I not do that too? The only person shoving stuff here as usual is someone called KK.
My experience with cheap glass screens as well as a cheap $10 tempered glass protector (they claim 9H) for a 7" tab is that none of them scratch. So to scratch gorilla glass you would indeed have to be an idiot. like keep your phone in your pocket with your keys or something.
I can agree with the face down impact thing. I did ask earlier if a tempered glass protector broke, if it would protect the screen too. or maybe it's like ipwnz said about the protector being so fragile itself that it breaks without much effort. bottom line is, if the impact is severe enough, it will break both the protector AND the screen under it. I've seen this (with other's phones, not my own). There are various factors to why a screen breaks including angle and point of impact, the material the surface it's hitting etc. if you drop a metal framed phone on its corner, no screen protector will save it. There is a very small percentage of impacts where a protector will indeed save the screen itself. I wouldn't cover up gorilla glass with a far inferior product for that.
kk, if you had a brain yourself you wouldn't assume that i don't know why people think they're using screen protectors.
