few days and there is a noticeable scratch. I am very careful with the screen but have no screen protectors. What kind of glass Samsung used. I’m not even sure this screen is real glass, maybe it sort of plastic.

Lol really. You no nothing then.
It's glass and very strong glass at that.
I had mines without a protector for 2wks and didn't get a single scratch on mine.
So some how you got something on it and it got scratch. The in thing that scratches screen the worse is sand
Have had mine for over a month. No screen protector, no scratches. In and out of my pockets all day.
I did laugh when I read some sort of plastic lol.
Btw this is the glass on the note edge.

Where you found about Note Edge. No info at Corning's own website or Samsung
Only reviews saying that it has Gorilla Glass 3 but does not mean it has.
It's gorilla glass 3.
My girl has drop her phone from waist high and landed face frist on the kitchen floor and didn't have one sratch on it.
So either your got a cheap copy or you where way to ruff with the phone.
As said o went 2 weeks without a protector and don't have any sratch at all. Not a one. Then I put a protector on it.

I often use gsmarena to check out specs on phone. Not perfect but generally a good resource.
As you reported: Corning Gorilla Glass 3

EDIT: Also, according to gsmarena, Note 4 uses Corning Gorilla Glass 4.

Ok let us say it Gorilla Glass. This means Gorilla Glass is not that resistance to scratch. Since the first day I have my phone in a case.
I also have have about 3 minor scratches on my Note Edge and I haven't had mine a month yet.. it is EXTREMELY annoying and I am trying to find a way to rid my screen of these scratches, I am OCD about my phones and not sure how it happened. Even been thinking about calling Samsung to see if there is anything that can be done.. so don't feel bad @funfun99999 you're not alone.

I just Googled "hardness of gorilla glass" and quickly found this.
http://en.miui.com/thread-40353-1-1.html
Basically, if a material is harder than the Gorilla Glass is can scratch it.
For example, something with a hardness of sand will scratch Gorilla glass so be careful at your local sand box or beach!
Perhaps, your screen was accidentally exposed to a harder material and you just didn't notice it at the time. Who knows, it
happens to the best of us.
EDIT:You know, it is always possible that some substandard Gorilla Glass was used. The problem here is who wants to volunteer using their Edge screen to test this! Also, unlikely Samsung or Corning would admit any wrong doing...

When I read the first post I was like wow this guy is ignorant, read this post and now I'm fairly convinced you don't have the slightest idea as to how Gorilla Glass works.
Fortified glass such as Gorilla Glass is not resistant to scratches, heck even diamond isn't shatter proof nor scratch proof (given the right material).
They are obviously harder to scratch than your standard glass but something will eventually scratch it if it's hard enough.
Do you want to know what the easiest thing to scratch your phone screen on is? Sand, it's abundant, you probably have a whole pile of it in your pockets.
Sand has hardness that is greater than glass and even Gorilla Glass which means when your screen comes in contact with sand it has the ability to scratch your screen.
Please don't go off blaming the product when you don't even know sufficient information about how the technology behind it all works.
"Since the first day I have my phone in a case" (lolwut?) Putting your phone in a case doesn't guarantee that you won't get scratches.
If you're that worried invest in a screen protector. I've had this phone for 2 months with no case or screen protector and still not a single scratch on the screen.
Maybe you should start washing your pants more often with the pockets inside out as well.

There's no real method of getting scratches off Gorilla Glass haha
Just get over it, it happens, nothing in this world can be perfect and resistant to everything.
Move on with your life, that scratch on your phone is not worth your time.

Gotta love it when people can't own up to their own mistakes or do adequate research eh?
I can safely say these two things do not scratch the screen with a light swipe. I'm sure if I put a great deal of force I could.
I subjected my note edge screen to the following and I didn't find a single scratch...

yep believe it or not those are softer metal then the glass. The same thing with keys there softer.
They did a test before. use knives, keys, metal rings etc... and they didnt do anything.
But a small part of 1000 grit sand paper wipe out the screen. Sand is pretty hard and hell thats whats glass is made off.

I see you just Defending Corning and Samsung. I believe you have scratches at your phone just look in sunlight at angle and you will see minor scratches at the screen.
I have my Note Edge 5 weeks scratch free
I purchased mine on Jan 9th first day of Verizon release. I have an Incipio case on it. I have dropped my phone more than once and on the face, it remains scratch free. The case has several scars and marks and a crack. I'm happy with the durability of my phone. Sorry to hear of the unhappy results with yours.

And so the ignorance continues... I am in no way defending Corning. How did Samsung even come into play? I never even mentioned Samsung once.
We were talking specifically about the technology that makes our modern day phones relatively scratch resistant when used correctly.
I mentioned that Corning's gorilla glass and other fortified glass is not completely scratch resistant. This is not my opinion. This is not me defending Corning. This is a fact....
I know for a fact that my phone will eventually collect scratches since I'm a user who doesn't use a screen protector,
but please don't state that you know my device better than I do when you can't even grasp the simple concept that nothing can be completely scratch proof.
When those scratches do finally appear I won't go on the internet and complain that these companies are making false claims and making inferior products to what they advertise.
Without their technology, the simple act of putting your phone in and pulling it out of a pocket could probably put many scratches on your device.
Have the dignity to just admit maybe you ran into some element in your pocket, on a desk or even on your finger that could have put the scratch there.
Cause at the end of the day a scratch doesn't just magically appear out of nowhere on any material, you clearly came in contact with some sort of element that you are not aware of.
Do your damn research, get learnt, knowledge is power and maybe next time you won't make such a big fool out of yourself on the internet.
I'm trying to be as informative as possible so you can understand where these scratches come from, no need to get so defensive man.

only for the color screen, because I use mainly e-ink display and I do not want the display lines too, when it is flat on the desk.
a few days and I post the images
My screen's always getting smudges & a microfiber cloth isn't able to get some of the marks out anymore. How does everyone else keep their phone's screen looking like new?
I spray lightly eye glasses cleaner on the microfiber cloth....
I'm using magic potions.
Really?
Grab a piece of soft cloth and apply some glass cleaner or degreaser. Please...

I used to use Purosol which is a great product that I use to clean my camera lenses but it didn't clean my screen quite as well as I expected it to do. Then I discovered Whoosh, I was skeptical at first but after using it a few times this is by far the best product I've ever used for cleaning the phone screen. I use it almost every day and the liquid itself, unlike Purosol, helps resist fingerprints.

It's a valid question, not all glasses are the same and many, like phone screens have special coatings that get damaged if you use the wrong type of cleaner. For example using glass cleaner on screens treated with oleophobic coating will eventually erode said coating and your screen will actually be more prone to collect fingerprints.
I clean my glasses twice a day with Zeiss lens wipes (bought in bulk from Amazon). When I'm done with my glasses, I use the wipe on my phone before it dries out. Works great and doesn't leave any scratches on my glasses or the phone.
Hi, just like to ask you guys, if your G6 display shows this problem that some lcds can have (on top/bottom or sides), some sort of yellowish or warmer tint near the border of the display.
Thanks to anyone, any feedback really appreciated.

Is this casued any damage to your phone display latter? Please let me know because I have the same problem like you.
This can be caused by local heat and mechanical stress (bent phone, touchscreen not glued evenly to the frame). Most easily achieved if the display has a classic frame pressing on the rim all around. Which is not the case for all modern phones and tablets.
Update: I now experience the tint issue myself.
But they are just Newton rings caused by the glass screen protector, formerly i used foil protectors. Humidity gets between Touchscreen and protector, or it locally lifts off and aur gets in. Even bacteria.
But all this can happen to gapless display/touchscreen combos, too, thankfully not in my case.
And as said by uneven pressure from bent case or screen glue loosening.
Does this phone have Gorrila glass protection ?
No. It doesn't. It just has 2.5D curved glass in front. No gorillla glass.
BTW everyone uses Tempered Glass nowadays, doesn't matter if its Zenfone Max Pro or Galaxy S9 alongwith Protective Case. So it won't make any difference.
And you can buy Complete protection for a whole year only for RS 49 and thats nothing if we compare to our daily expenses.

The screen damage protection is included in the complete protection? To be more precise I want to know if somehow the screen breaks or gets a scratch it will be replaced for free if I buy the complete protection?
No Gorilla Glass... But they dropped it from 2-3 meters high when they test it on the factory

No Gorilla Glass as ASUS has already confirmed amidst the speculations, but, BUT, it has a special screen protection by ASUS which they claim isn't bad at all, of course, it ca't be compared with the Corning Gorilla Glass as yet. I don't know the quality of that screen's protection but ti should be better than a normal screen of course..
Moreover, this shouldn't really be a big concern as most users will have a tempered glass protection on top. So nothing to worry about.

Yes, if its dropped or gets broken then its covered. Not for Scratches though. BTW who asks for screen replacement for Scratches.??
So screen protector / tempered glass still needed ?
or the screen is safe without it.

I'm bad English.
The screen is already strong enough, asus already testing it in their factory (in batam), slamming it from 2 meters high using robot, and the screen doesn't crack at all!
For someone who might want to see the video.
Skip to 14:28 if you want to see the slamming method.
I will still put TG/screen protector though, it is much cheaper and make me sleep better.
scratch resistance and impact resistance are two dirrerent things. Impact resistant glass would not mean its scratch resistant. If the phone falls down on screen, it might not shatter, but through daily use, you'd probably get scratches easily. Better get a good quality tempered glass for protecting against scratches.

Just buy a tempered glass on Tokopedia, it's dirt cheap and costs like around 20k Rupiah (which is the cheapest) and around 100k for the most expensive. Better safe than sorry imo, also the stock screen from what I've heard only provides the oleophobic coating so the more reason to get an extra layer of protection.
