or should I just suck it up and buy some expensive ass onears

@Julian he doesn't have boxes of 18650s at home, right?

I want something for cold autumn/winter days coming up

just suck it up

Are tempered glass screen protectors worth it

i just go nakee

naked

for phones.

gorilla glass is nice and all but when it does get scratched or broken, you gotta replace the whole assembly

thanks, fused display jew

tempered glass definitely feels better than a plastic one

should i give my redmi note 5 a vikings funeral

but they scratch easier than the original screen these days which seems counter intuitive

Yeah but they can be easily replaced @Cad

also from my understanding tempered glass should be bubble free

rather scratch a 5 buck tempered glass screen than the actual phone one

this tbh

For what it's worth I've still got a dirt cheap plastic one I got with my RN4X a year ago

also mine got smashed many times and has a crack

but the phone beneath it is still pretty good

if the screen took the impact it'd probably be dead

@moshi what the fuck did you do to it

is there any degradation to the touch sense quality or @MarcoZ

Plastic ones definitely do that

not that I can tell no

maybe when you purposefully go over the crack? but it doesn't affect usability at all

using a tempered glass protector with my mi A1

its fine for now

no difference in touch sense

should point out I have a weird phone though, yotaphone 2

So the protector cracked but not the actual screen?

based

also that one is nice

ye

I'm jelly af tbh

i need another tempered glass one

case took a side impact and it hairline cracked in the lower left

oh cool.

when it was 30 degrees outside this summer the heat melted the fucking glue off!

it's still glued on but it's starting to get detached

also yeah
