Does the iphone 5 need a scratch guard?

Due to its gorilla glass display i hav seen in many youtube videos that the iphone 5 display remains uneffective to scratches. Is it true? Will it need any scratch guard or screen protector?

If you're really OCD, or just want to be careful, get a screen protector. You really can't go wrong if you have one. The screen will still get small scratches and dinks, but nothing big… Unless you like throw it onto concrete

You seem to be an actuall idiot! All you have to do is turn on airplane mode so that when you drop it i will fly! Why would you need a screen protecter on a phone that can fly?

If you take good care of your iPhone, it shoudn't need a screen protector. If you toss it in the same pocket with the keys, though, it'll get scratched. Also gorilla glass can be scratched by sand, so be careful at the beach.

I like to keep my gadgets protected with a wallet case, that way the screen is always cushioned, but no nasty screen guards need be applied.

There's a decent selection of cases like that online:

  • Using screen guard and back guard to protect iPhone 4s? I want to use my iphone4s without back cover which makes it bulky. Using screen protector will be sleek to use and carry. However I feel that the camera at the back side will get scratches, if the back side is guarded by a thin layer of sheet only but Please help me and suggest if this is practical and I will not harm my iphone by getting rid of rub-plastic cover.
