Why do we need a protective film?
Before we look at what options are on the table, we need to understand why a protective film is so crucial.
The functionality of a film is solely to protect the screen of your smartphone. Once applied, it creates a «second screen» on your equipment, which means that if there is an accident with your smartphone, the first material to be damaged will be the film and not the mobile screen. Therefore, choosing a good film is important to effectively protect your smartphone screen.
What is the best protective film for your cell phone?
- PET film
These are polyethylene-based films that provide protection against scratches and drops, are cheaper, lighter and thinner, making them less visible when applied to the smartphone. They are suitable for curved-screen smartphones and offer a soft-touch feel. The downside of these films is that they make the screen a bit brighter, which may cause embarrassment to some users. - Glass sheets
They are among the most drop and scratch resistant on the market. Today, they can be found at a lower and more affordable price. Unlike PET sheets, being thicker, they are more visible on the screen and may detract somewhat from touch sensitivity, but do not compromise performance. - Liquid film
It is a liquid solution that when applied to the screen creates a very thin protective barrier that does not provide protection against deeper scratches. Over time, this film wears away, further diminishing the protection of your device's screen. - Gel film
These films are made of materials that can fully absorb an impact. They are malleable and adapt to any screen, covering it completely, thus offering full protection. In terms of thickness, they are thinner than glass sheets, but unlike glass sheets, gel sheets do not crack or break, allowing for greater durability. However, they do need to be replaced when they wear out.
Types of film:
Glass or gel film?
Tempered glass sheets are typically 0.3 centimeters thick. These sheets are very rigid and, in the event of a fall, they will most likely crack somewhere, without compromising the feel of the screen. One of the disadvantages of this type of film is its easy wear over time, since even without any eventual accident the film wears out, compromising the visibility of the screen. Another disadvantage is the reduced malleability, which means that this type of film is not suitable for devices with curved screens.
Gel films are the most recent on the market and have been conquering their users as the best film available, since they offer greater durability and malleability. They are thinner than glass sheets, but their effect in case of impact is exactly the same. The biggest advantage in relation to glass sheets is the fact that they are not so easily damaged, i.e. in case of a fall they hardly break, which allows a «new» appearance for a longer time, however, care must be taken with sharp objects, such as keys, as they easily scratch the surface of the sheet, not compromising its use, but its aesthetics/appearance.
