Are you getting a screen protector for your 12?

I am sure the glass can still scratch even if it is stronger but I am thinking it’s time to take a chance.

I usually go through half a dozen different screen protectors for an all new device before I find one I like.

My expense on protectors could pay for my AppleCare.

What are you doing ?

I'm getting a screen protector for sure. Always have. I like the edge to edge without the notch cutout. Been using zagg but they don't have it available for the Pro Max...yet. I'm open to suggestions!
 
Haven't gone without a protector on any of my iPhones. Kinda excited to see a full edge to edge one now that the glass is flat again.

Is ZAGG the only one without a notch cutout?

I’ve used screen protectors the last few iPhone releases. The Belkin Ultra Glass that is installed at the Apple Store with the machine is my favorite. I may go without it on my iPhone 12 Pro.
 
Yes. Are there any available clear protectors for the back of the phone? I want to go without a case this time but find that the back of the phone also needs protection.

Since its flat this would not longer require the full “3D” protectors that have the black rim? I believe the black rim was their because it curved?

Nah. I always used one until recently and prefer the "naked" screen. I don't mind the occasional scratch that can only be seen in direct light.

Side Note: I'm on IUP so I'm not concerned about resale value
 
I have the folio case on my 11Max and decided NOT to do the screen protector.
I’m not sure they’ll have the leather folio, so not sure what I’ll do.
I really just want that protection for when the phone is in my purse or pocket. The sleeve is an option but I tend to loose sleeves. I hate to carry it around separately.
 
I used screen protectors on my 3 and iPhone 4s. Never since. Always like the feel of the screen better than whatever gets put on, and the appearance of the screen is nicer.
 
I ended up buying a screen protector. The Bodyguardz Pure 2 since its edge to edge and clear on the borders. I usually buy 2 and with ATT buying 3 accessories gets 30% so I also picked up a case.
 
Always have one. I love the one made by Manto (on amazon). Full screen protection, including the notch.

How does Claudabe tempered glass SP hold up?
Anyone used theirs before?

I also purchased the screen protector from Caudabe (along with the Sheath case) but I have never bought one from them before.

I'm a little worried that it 1) it might be too thick and that 2) it will have a thicker border/bezel than the actual phone bezel but we'll see. Some pictures show the product without a black border/bezel and in others (especially in an email they sent me announcing the screen protector) it does show one.

Anyways, I ended up buying it as I thought at a minimum it would align well with their case.

Will wait on impressions. Would want a full face one with no notch which is what I have on my 11 at the moment. Would also like to see options around rear protectors too which may mean I can manage without a case. I use a film protector on the back of my 11 but would prefer glass
 
If scratches are not covered on AC+ how does the IUP judge them during trade in?
