Looks like some donors for SPL testing!

Must be the update to the "Cracked Screen" app.

Thank God I ordered my screen protector

I have a feeling that whatever broke these poor N1's, would've laughed at your screen protector

Believe it or not, but a screen protector increases the skin tension of the glass (like a laminate) and adds a lot of strength.
I once dropped an iphone from waist height onto a bitumen road, LCD screen first and it hit a rock right on the screen. Not a scratch on the screen (altho I needed to replace the screen protector) but the LCD and glass survived.
So IMO, screen protectors are an integral part to protecting the glass.

the horror!!!!!

My virgin eyes!!!

same i dropped my g1 once on concrete from 5 feet. It made a nice scratch in the screen protector but the screen was fine. It woulda jacked up my screen if i didnt hav eit.

Wow that screen is all sorts of f'ed up

This was a 40cm (15 inches) drop..
I'm glad that I got insurance
Ouch, that's gotta hurt (his wallet)!!
The screen must have hit the corner of something to have damaged it that severely. There's a vid going round on youtube of someone dropping one from over a meter and a half, and it's just fine.
I've done a scratch test on mine, but don't have the cajones to try a drop test!
I bet he's gutted!

Yeah, I've seen the video on youtube, but some people think that it is a dummy phone, and they might just be right.
I dropped mine a meter today and it was fine, but it was onto carpet, so not really a big test. Think it landed flat screen up too.
Nasty & expensive.
I must take out Vodafone's insurance when mine comes through!

The screen in the video is not from a SGS or is it?
SGS screen IS made out of glass, but the display itself is not of course

Take a mallet to your SGS, prove to us that it doesn't have a glass screen
Sure, the AMOLED is flexible, but the GLASS SCREEN THAT COVERS IT isn't.

[Q] What is this inside the screen?

Just noticed that on the left hand corner of the screen is a small shiny patch. It is not a scratch on the outside of the screen. It appears to be between the screen and the glass. Pictures don't do it justice. It is very noticeable outside, because it is very shiny. My question is, what is it and can I fix it? It is visible whether the LCD is on or not. Doesn't look like anything has cracked, or seeped in. Wasn't there earlier...

Seems that the gorilla glas and your screen got off a little bit. Since they are glued together it could be the case. You must disassemble your device to know more
Looks like glue between digi and LCD had a failure. Is it a device you bought used?. If so whoever changed digi messed up on glue job. If its device you got new from google I would RMA......that is definitely a manufactures defect.

I bought almost new, nearly 1 year ago. Wasn't like that last week. Don't think I can RMA it to anyone. Guess if it gets worse I can replace the screen...
Thanks for the responses...

Yeah, I got in contact with LG support on Friday and they're getting back to me. Hopefully get a replacement screen.

Bubble under glass

I got my note 4 day after launch and yesterday morning a bubble showed up under the glass on the left top corner of the screen At first I though it was the screen protector that had a bubble underneath but after taking the screen protector off it is actually under the glass. The bubble is about half inch long by 1/8th inch wide or so. I couldn't find any info on anyone else with this problem. I went to Tmobile and they sent a replacement phone out right away. Anyway just seeing if anyone else has had this problem. There is no damage to the glass or screen just a bubble under the glass. XDA wont let me post photos in my posts yet so once I'm over 10 posts i'll put some pictures of it up.
Looks like glue wasn't cured right. Were you able to "push" bubble out by pressing on screen or is more like cured glue separated from glass?
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
Pressing on it doesn't make the bubble go away or change shape in any way.
be good if some way we can see a picture.

There it finally allowed me to post photos.
yeah that's a strange one! Only thing I can think of is that it was there when you first bought it, but it was too small for you take notice until it got bigger!
Exchange!
This is the adhesive that fuses the LCD panel to the glass digitizer separating. Definitely a factory defect and definitely get it exchanged. This should not be happening.
Mine is separating in the same spot. Can only see it when the light it on it just right, hasn't gotten as bad as yours yet

[Q] Is it possible to stretch a Note 3 screen with fingers without screen protector?

HOW HARD IS GORILLA 3 RESISTED TO THE STRETCH
With fingers i think not, but when you have it in pocket with something like key´s then you can scratch it.
And i would reccomend you a case because the rim is from plastic after a while it damages and it looks ugly ..
Fingers? Or nails? If its the former, then no. If its the latter then, probably. I have seen people hitting LCD panels with their awfully huge pointy nails, I don't know, but hurts me just to even see it.
I always will recommend a screen protector, glass if possible.
You can't scratch it with anything if you have a tempered glass screen protector on it...

Sorry I could not resist.
It's glass. You can't stretch it.

I'm faily sure you mean scratch, not stretch.
Unless of course you're actually trying to lengthen the screen by pulling on it like a rubber band. In which case I don't think flexible screens are that effective just quite yet. You'll have to wait a few years.
Gorilla Glass 3 is fairly hard to scratch. Sand, keys and knives will, over time, damage the screen, but a protector isn't vital.
