Protecting the Screen of Your Phone

Cell phones don’t go well with keys, coins, pens, or other hard objects, and a person typically only has so many pockets. Very few things are as annoying as pulling out your phone and discovering a large scratch across the middle of the screen. Fortunately, there are ways to protect that screen from scratches, dirt, dust, and scuffing.

Screen Protectors

One of the best ways to protect your screen is by using a screen protector. These can be found for just about any model of phone, and they provide a thin but durable plastic barrier between your phone and the rest of the world. A screen protector is a handy way to keep the screen safe, and if it gets damaged replacing the protector is much easier and cheaper than replacing the screen of the phone. Quality screen protectors can provide a custom fit and do not interfere with the operations of the phone. In many cases, they can even work with touchscreens.

Special Features

Some screen protectors have special features that actually enhance the use of the phone. For example, some are specifically designed to cut back on glare, which can help protect your eyes from UV light and help you to see your phone better when outside. Some types of protectors help preserve your privacy, and some are antimicrobial to help keep your phone clean and germ-free. A few can resist fingerprints, which helps to keep your phone looking neat and polished.

Cleaning Cloths

Screen protectors are good, but your screen can also be preserved by cleaning it correctly. Wiping away dust, dirt, and grime helps to lengthen the life of the screen and lets you see things better. You shouldn’t clean your screen with just anything since water can seriously damage the phone and some rough cloths can scuff the surface. There are a number of special cleaning wipes and cloths that help you keep the phone shining.

Your phone faces a lot of challenges and potential threats, but there are ways you can reduce them. Screen protectors are a great way to keep your phone safe.
