I don't use one and haven't needed one.
Maybe if you carry your phone in the same pocket as your keys, or like dialing with the point of a bayonet....otherwise I see no need.

okej thanks m8 do u have nay scratch?
This has been thoroughly discussed in the accessories section.
I have the Zagg Invisible Shield and i like it. You can't notice it on the screen exept if there is sun like a lot of sunlight on it, but you do feel like a bit of a plastic everytime you tuch the screen, i mean it is not that smooth to the feel, but the phone registers your touch every time with no problem.
I use one I got from bestskinsever.com (I think), its great. Takes a little getting used to the texture as you're obviously not touching bare glass anymore but it definitely does the job well, no discolouring or marks on my phone since using it
Why use a Display Shield when you have a Gorilla Glass onboard?
To be, or not to be: that is the question!
you don't need a screen shield
the glass is harder than the shields
i tried to scratch it with keys and it just can't be scratched
a firend of mine did it. and why not be on the safe side if you can?
havent used a screen protector since i bought the phone about 8 months ago
i havent got any visible scratch on the screen. not even under the sun
maybe when i use a microscope, then yes, but mmm.. im not going to
Had mine bare for 8 months as well and the screen still looks perfect, and trust me I'd notice any significant blemishes. Just the other day I wiped it clean and looked under bright light and could only see a couple of near-microscopic scratches.
A shield would ruin the feel IMO. I just keep out in its own pocket and hold it tight.

I prefer having one than not too... I had one so far and know that i removed i see i'd rather have one on for extra protection. After all Gorilla glass can be scratched too (although it's not easy to scratch it). I'm on the "better safe than sorry" side but for others who are very careful with the phone i would just suggest a case!
It is not neccesary for scratches but it may help to protect the screen from shattering when you drop it..

the force that is needed to scratch this glass would also scratch it past one of the screen shields
screen shields are useless for this phone, they just make it look uglier... and in some cases like zaag they also add a rubbery feel which ruins the smooth experience
I've had mine in my pocket with a hand full of screws an no scratch on the display

only if you drop a Hello Kitty cookie jar lid on it from 6" up in air. Friend did it and shattered the glass somehow. Hence forth he has a Hello Kitty skull/crossbones on his car window

to be honest it's unnecessary but for me it's annoying to wipe my screen everytime it gets dirty, and with a screen protector it doesn't smudge as easily
I took off my screen protector and now have a scratch. Its only visible if you switch off display and see the screen under a bright light. The back cover really needs some protection cause its a scratch magnet.
Gorilla Glass is resistant to everyday scratches, like from dust particles and carrying it in your pocket and things like that. No screen is resistant to high force impact.
I've had my Galaxy for over a month now and the display glass is still pristine (and I use it in differrent environments)! I had a Desire which was durable to some extent as well, but I managed to scratch its screen somehow. This phone? No problem whatsoever.
The plastic casing, however... the back cover has visible "signs" of usage
Strangely enough I have had some mixed experiences with gorilla glass.. My own galaxy GT-i9000 went 2 weeks and the screen was fine.. then i decided my fingers had grubbed it up a little too much.. took my cleaning cloth for my glasses and went to work only to find i had basically put hairline scratches over the whole screen.. Not terrible mind you but noticeable under bright lights or on low screen brightness..
On the other end of the scale I convinced a friend to get the galaxy s also.. Walking down a dirt road, he tripped while holding the phone and it slip maybe 5 meters down the dirt.. not a single scratch.. the plastic was a bit tarnished though from bouncing around.
I don't have a screen protector on my Note since they tend to hinder the brilliant display (the clear ones retain too many fingerprints for my liking), but as a result I must be extra careful when handling the phone.
I haven't gotten any scratches yet, but I'm always nervous about using the S-pen on a naked screen. Has anyone out there had any problems with S-pen scratches, or am I just being too paranoid?
Thanks in advance, guys.
I've used my Note both with and without screen protector now, and in both cases it really feels like you're scratching the screen. You get the feeling it's sharp pen or something, but when you carefully examine the S-Pen you'll notice that it's rounded and not sharp at all. I don't think it'll get your screen scratched, because that would produce a lot of complaints.
My Note doesn't have any scratches yet, and I've used the pen quite alot. So I don't think you have to worry as long as the S-Pen is in good state.
No, you should not worry about the s pen scratching the screen.
I use the SGP Steinheil ultra olephobic. If you get a good application, you cannot see it and it really does cut down on finger and face oils.
Using the S pens is just like writing on the screen!

If you are afraid that your screen is being scratched by accident, there is no other answer or tips to prevent little scratches to appear after usage than put an invisible shield on it.
you are afraid that you will scratch a gorilla glass equipped phone with a plastic tip of the spen ???

That's correct, because I've had devices in the past where some type of particle must have gotten between the stylus and the screen, and I ended up with minor scratches that were very annoying. Granted, this was years ago before phones had fortified glass, but I was just asking to get other people's advice/opinions.
you should always check that the tip of the pen is clean but since you seem to share my paranoia you probably do that already.
there is no way that a clean plastic tip can scratch glass, ANY glass
not the gorilla discussion again :-(
/Jeriz
I agree with Jeriz.
I too am very cautious about the screen and i dont like screen protectors so im just careful. Just wipe the pen tip each time you get it out and should be fine. I only use it occasionally anyway.
Yes it does have gorilla glass ffs
I've done some nasty little scratch by pen, so don't tell me it can't be done.
I was very careful about Note but 1 particle of sand, and I have a scratch.
Screen protector is necessary.

but it was the contaminants on the tip and not the plastic itself. nobody here said that some random grain of unknown material can't scratch the screen. that's exactly like saying that "my car was all shiny and new but it only took one key to scratch the paint" for all we know it could have been a micro diamond
im prepared to say that if you take the (clean) plastic tip of the pen and try to scratch the screen the pressure required will crack the screen long before your able to make any scratcmarks.
careful or not doesn't seem to matter. most scratches seem to be caused by very small particles judging by how many people who says they get scratches even tho they nursed the phone like a newborn baby. based on that i believe that IF the note is more prone to scratches it's simply due to larger screen area
and you can't say that screen protection is necessary for everyone. it might be your preference but i don't like the way they feel or the way they distort the screen
im not trying to attack you im simply disagreeing with everything you said

Love that!
BTW, the exact same issue is far more possible wit grit attached to your finger. It is less likely to scratch, however, because you do not use so much pressure (more area).
What it does do, however, is cause the protector to get covered with thousands of tiny scratches. Now, that affects the display.
As soon as I get one of my preferred cases, I am taking my protector off. I shall then have a much better looking Note. I do hope it will be for a long time, but you never can tell.

It's already been mentioned, but here's a bit of a proof of the existence of GG on the Note
Hey Guys! Just wanna share this problem. After removing a cheap screen protector on my nexus 4 i still have this pattern - the cutout on proximity sensor and on the camera. I tried scratching it with my nails but there is really no more residue, the surface is flat but the feel on the screen is different on the sensor or the actual glass. Did I remove a coating or something after removing the protector? I also dropped a small amount of alcohol trying to clean it and observed that it follows the pattern. Check out the pictures please. Thank you very much.
What does this mark feel like and how hard is it?

I couldn't describe it but you could barely feel the difference between the real glass (proximity or camera or edges) and the area covered by the screen protector. It seems It'd never be removed. I tried tape, alcohol, scratching it, none worked.

Mmmm, I assume that the residue has absorbed into the Gorilla Glass which is really bad in many ways...

Either that, OR it has peeled off the oleophobic coating with it. OP, Do finger prints stick more than usual?

I thought the term oleophobic is for the steinheil SPs only. Is it really possible? What could possibly happen? Well I cant say, I immediately put a screen protector on the device right after I got it.
i'd say the oleophobic coating just rubbed off completely around the screen protector, mine has a slight problem around the sensor and front camera cut-out but it can only be seen if there are fingerprints on the screen and you know what you are looking for. i think it happens because of sweat/skin oils.
hi guys
i've screen protector since when i bought my N4.. but yesterday it destroyed for reasons..
i feel the screen's surface is verrry smooth and feels good without protector.. but i'm afraid of tiny scratches..
2 questions..
1. i heard there's something covering the display named "Oleophobic coating" cause this smoothness and will be gone
after some times without protector.. is it right?
2. do N4 really need screen protector?

Go to YouTube and search "Gorilla Glass 2 scratch test". Let's say that unless you expose you phone to very extreme situations you probably don't really need a screen protector.

Its better to get a flip cover or a good case with a screen guard.
Just telling cuz if ur phone falls down by some chance... its better not to risk the device being broken.
Heyy!!i suggest that u get a flip cover which saves yr phonw from great harm but u hav to know that the screen protector is a must....

tnx guys
well... i don't like flip cover 'cause it'll be deformed after some use.. and it's really expensive here $$$
what about "Oleophobic coating" ?
is it true there are such this thing and will be gone after some use? and after that, screen won't be smooth like before..
is it true?
Gorilla glass is ifc really though but sand can scratch it completly, just so you know, clean your pockets before putting your phone it it.

Received this clear protector from gadgetshieldz today. Here is a quick review about the product, the back protector and the camera protector fit precisely and gives this invisible look for a price of 11$. It will protect your device from minor scratches and fingerprint smudges.

Is the front case friendly and is it orange peel like in appearance like typical wet screen protectors?

If you are talking about the Whitestone Dome, then yes. It fits the phone perfectly and the fingerprint sensor also works perfectly. Follow the directions carefully and watch their youtube video before installing!

No there isn't a hole with the dome glass. I had the panzerglass as well with my S10+. The hole didn't bother me too much and was for me a nice guidance to the fp. But I can imagine that people dislike the hole.

Full adhesive tempered glass that works with the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor
For your viewing pleasure
The Whitestone is pretty good but messesul the fingerprints . Found it cracks easily too but worth it for the security
I have been using these for a couple weeks, VERY impressed. I dont like the dome glass, and most films dont feel smooth. These are film, but feel very slick.

I'm currently rocking the zagg glassfusion. Its actually a plastic screen protector that I can honestly say takes a impact and have had no issues with touch sensitivity nor the fingerprint scanner. My only complaint is that it's not a completely clear protector as it has a black rim that goes around it. And the front facing camera is not covered instead I now have a black ring around where the camera sits. Otherwise great protector. I'm a traveling service tech. And my clipboard sliding forward and landing on my note 8 was eventually the demise of it with a total of three impacts to screen.... so far this glassfusion has taken two hard impacts from said clipboard. Without even a scratch....love the protector they just need it to be completely clear.

Whitestone has been near prefect so far using Supcase Unicorn Beetle pro I had to slightly file down the top corners of the case to prevent glass pulling up
Been using mine for 5 months now without a screen protector and not a scratch on it.
I haven't dropped it much though
