    Yes, I own a case and glass screen protector. I went without a screen protector with an old Pixel and ended up with quite a few microscratches that drove me nuts. A friend of mine used a case but no screen protector on his iPhone and I don’t know how he does it. I’d be constantly worried about scratches.

    Look into liquid glass. Relatively cheap and easy way to make your phone screen more resilient.

    I use a case since I dropped it and the back (glass) is cracked. Because I don’t want to risk cutting my hand, I’m using the case that came with the phone.

    Still no screenprotector though. There are some micro scratches, but no visible damage when using it.

    3.5+ year old phone. No phone specific insurance either.

    I use a case, one that also protects the face with high edges, also a screen protector, the hard perspex type. Well worth protecting your investment.

    I do not. I have the normal warranty and an extended protection plan, but that’s it. I’m normally pretty careful with my devices, and I’m not a fan of the extra bulk cases add to the phone.

    I use a pretty basic case. It’s got some protection to dampen a fall but if it were to drop badly it would probably be screwed. I’ve had it for about a year and a half no major scratches or anything yet. I’ve been very meticulous not to put anything else that could scratch it in the same pocket as was a problem for me in the past >_<

    I stopped using a case a few years ago since they always felt too bulky.

    I just started going without a screen protector a few weeks ago too since I hardly drop my phone and when I have, a screen protector wouldn’t have saved me from the small damage it inflicted.

    Aside from a little paint scratched off from a corner (phone flew out of my pocket when I jumped while wearing some baggy shorts a few months ago), it’s been going great. 👍

    No protection plan or extended warranty or anything of that sort.

    Basic silicone case, no screen protector, no damage. Have dropped it enough times over the 9 months I’ve owned it that I’m rather impressed by the complete lack of damage.

    I use a cheap android phone (<$120 when I bought it 3 years ago). I protect it with cheap case + Hydrogel screen protector. I’m satisfied with Hydrogel type screen protector as it still on good condition even after my phone falls screenfirst many times. There are many scratches right now on the screen protector, but it still usable and not annoying as most scratches located on the edge of screen. Most of them caused by falling sceenfirst to gravel ground and asphalt several times… lol.

    I’ve got a Poco X4 Pro with a glass screen protector and a Spigen rugged armour case. I drop my phone often and as far as I can tell, it’s still in excellent condition

    I don’t have any protection. My phone fell down once on asphalt (because my headphones were connected weirdly and my backpack pulled it out of my pocket), the screen is slightly cracked but now it won’t crack anymore
