I think more phones are going towards the scratch proof screens, the Cliq might have not had it, but I believe the motorola Droid does. I think eventually most devices will have scratch proof screens.

i actually just ordered a full body armor from bestskinsever because i like the feel of it, and in case the phone is dropped. It would still be recommended to get a screen protector/invisible skin in case if it's dropped or anything like that

That sucks. I thought the screen was suppose to be scratch proof.
Someone did mention cnn.cn for nexus one parts.

Cool...nice to know that it can be replaced. I've got a scratch also...but it's in the black part top left corner...so doesn't interfere.
so i guess that scratchtest vid by the eyelash dude was just BS? i had a feeling it was too good to be true.

it's scratch-proof but it doesn't mean it's scratch resistant.
I once scratched a glass phone screen using the slightly exposed chip on a credit card. If it's loose in your pocket with the phone then be careful, as if it doesn't scratch the screen it works like a cheese knife and removes the rubbery coating.
Probably not such an issue for USA users; last time I was over there you didn't have a chip-n-pin system.

an OTA update might fix this
Hi,
Unfortunately, today I scratched my phone. To the left of the trackball I have a somewhat minor scratch in the metal chassis of the device. It's not as deep as an engraving would be on the back of the phone. So I am hoping it can be removed easily. Has anyone had experience with removing scratches from the metal or maybe even removing engraving ? I really want to fix this :-(
Probably those polishing stuff works, but i've only tested them on the iphone's chrome sides. But they're only good for removing hairline scratches
Battery acid, also that DIY stylus might help too if you rub it on there hard enough.
But seriously, try car buffer or if it isnt rooted just tell HTC that your phone is getting horrible 3g service and you want a replacement

Either way, once you get it fixed up, I highly suggest getting a BSE (or another skin).

Evo 4g scratch test
I suppose I should put in the disclaimer that the phone is being returned to sprint because the screen has risen up from the bezel, and that is the only reason that I did the scratch test.
I forgot to mention that I did the same thing to the back camera, but it lasted all of 2 seconds and it scratched.
For the life of me I can't figure out why they would not use the same glass as the screen.
Nice to see the screen toughness.
I'd be surprised if any of those objects DID scratch the glass, seeing as how glass is harder than most metals.
What you have to REALLY look out for is abrasive materials like sand. This applies to all owners of devices with glass screens. That stuff will leave your screen looking horrible.

That's a bit strange; keys aren't very sharp to begin with, so how would they scratch a glass screen? If anything, a trip to the beach is going to be much scarier than carrying your keys along with your Evo in the same pocket.

Sand, dirt, and a mixture of crap in your pocket is more likely to scuff the screen than anything else. Hence, I always recommend cloth pouches for touchscreen phones.

It is still a good idea to get a screen protector on your phone.
It's scratch resistant, not scratch proof.
Having the same issue as you Roman, along with the light bleed from the button below the screen. Talking to my company rep now so I can get it replaced.

Not sure if you can, I yanked mine off so fast, it was like I was 5 again again on Xmass morning. I have never used screen protectors on anything and frankly I have never got a scratch, I think they are huge ripoffs. The screen on the Xoom is very tough gorilla glass.
I WOULD recommend the Motorola case that snaps around it, some people complain that you can't charge it with it closed, but that is very minor. Otherwise it's a good case. You will want a case not only to protect against droppage but to protect the screen and make it overall less slippery when you carry it (often under your arm). It also kind of Hides it, so to most people it just looks like a little black notepad, which keeps a lot of people from asking what it is.

you can use it. I kept mine on for a while yesterday until I was ready to install my screen protector. Only downside is it feels real gritty but it works fine

That is the reason I bought InvisibleShield, the same reason I got it for my phone. It helps to reduce glare and fingerprints.
I kept all the plastic on mine for about five days until my skinomi came. I didn't want a single scratch on my baby while i waited for the full carbon fiber/ screen protector to arrive! Worked fine with plastic. Edges started to peel back after a couple days, that's it.
I've had mine on since day one. Figure when it starts to come off I'll just take it off and do without. Not worried about scratches, just seemed like it'd allow me to be lazy about cleaning for a while if I kept it on over the screen.

I'm sure you know most techies (and clumsy people?) like keeping their gadgets as perfect as they can. If that means covering it in damage-resistant plastic, then why not? I've never been one for screen protectors... but I definitely see the point. Full body protectors also seem very useful. You can bump into things, drop your device on the ground, put it in bags full of other stuff, throw it around (not horribly, of course) and still not have to worry about damage.
Its much better than letting that one little scratch you tried so hard to avoid get on your device. Unless you just don't care. However, after paying 100+ dollars I would surely care. Can't have expensive things that look like trash.
My original plastic is still on the face, after 5 days of use I finally took the other plastic off.
I'm having a real hard time deciding whether to put a screen protector on this thing or not. For the first time in a decade of using the stupid things I think I'm going to try going without one. I'll be heartbroken if I end up with a gash though. This is my first Gorilla Glass product so it's a foreign concept to me.

Yep, same here but I guess I've developed a different kind of "analness" eg, instead of keeping the plastic on the leather couches, I clean and condition them every 3mos (with Lexol).
Instead of putting a screen protector on my Evo, it always flies solo in my pocket everywhere we go (keys & nicknacks go in the other) and slide it in with the screen facing my thigh
Not sure I can fit the Xoom in my pocket but it'll stay in the safety of the home most of its life.

hi chaps,
i recently got myself an evo 4g and was contemplating a screen protector. then i came across some videos on YouTube proclaiming just how tough the gorilla glass (?) on the evo is and withstood all kinds of torture.
anyway, in the spirit of finding out for myself, i tried the same thing to my phone and i definitely suggest not trying it yourself. The screen most definitely does scratch. Now we now.

i already knew it scratched hell iv even broke the screen on my first evo so yea my keys have scratched my screen however you can see it. it doesnt make it look bad or aweful in anyway just notice it under certain angles so kind of dumb to ruin yours to do this test could have just asked if anyone had scratchs on their screen and to take pictures
Ok, so, you went from "I should get a screen protector!" to "I'm gonna take a razor blade to this *****!" in the span of a youtube video?!
Jesus man, I hope to god you don't find out about failblog or else your hospital bills are going to be ridiculous.
ha ha!!
nah man... i was considering a screen protector. Always had one on my HD2 and Touch Diamond. But then i got to reading about how tough the glass was.. and then the YouTube videos. I though to myself, this is brilliant., no screen protector needed.
I initially tried with just the corners and there were no scratches, after which i figured let me catch the main test on video just for sake of it.
now, with what i did to my Evo, the outcome should have be the same as those other chaps who posted on Youtube, but i got a couple of scratches which i took pictures of.... what i proved was that its highly unlikely those Evos came away undamaged or theres something fishy going on.
Btw, im probably not going to use a screen protector. If anything, maybe a slip case. I mean, after all that coin scratching, scicssors scoring and blade cutting, it only came away with two scratches. The second was small enough that i found it hard to take a picture of. The one i could take a picture of is noticeable if viewed from a particular angle. Looking at it head on in normal use is not noticeable.
Plus if it does get that bad, the screens go for $20 bucks on ebay...
but then again, there is the question of resale though.... hhhmmm.
Anyway, i looked on the net and all i got was confused answers, take it from me chaps this is definitive. And ive got the scratch to prove it.

Haha. You said chaps....... I remember the glass on my *gasp* blackberry storm being tough. I scratched it with everything and never once noticed anything. Never tried with my evo. Just too sexy of a phone

I use my phone naked since there's no way I'm putting a case on such a huge phone.
It's stood up really well, actually. I've dropped it on concrete a few times and the only noticeable signs are some indents on the plastic around the outer rim.
Though if you look closely, there's little chips missing from my screen. You could definitely scratch it pretty badly without too much effort in my opinion.
My phone has a zagg screen protector on it and I don't have any yellowing issues... however if your fingers are oily or wet (duh most peoples are ) then yeah it can have a tacky sort of feel. I usually just do a quick wipe of my index finger on my jeans before I touch my screen.

i get the case thing. i had an otterbox defender series on my phone with out much trouble til it became to stretched to hit the buttons correctly kinda disappointing i guess im glad i used a gift card to try it out. The screen protectors that came with are not bad but my phone is back to being completely naked ( oh noeesss!! ) but it seems to be fine.
glass wise no i wouldn't of tried this carrying this no shalantly in my pocket has shown its wear on the screen from random things in my pocket even though i "try" to keep it in its own pocket
