iPhone 6 screen is prone to damage! Do you use a screen protector or not?

Apple's iPhone has finally become bigger, and along with it, the new screen technology has become one of the highlights of this year's iPhone.

But now, many iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users have said that the screens of their phones are not wear-resistant enough and their performance is even worse than that of iPhone 5s or even previous Apple products.

In response to this phenomenon, foreign media reported earlier today that the reason why the screens of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are not wear-resistant is that they use glass customized by Corning to achieve a 2.5D curvature effect and are strengthened using special ion enhancement technology. However, the wear resistance of the glass is not as good as that of the common Gorilla Glass 3 products.

So the question is, if you are an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus user, will you put on a screen protector or not?

Visually speaking, it is absolutely not possible to apply a screen protector. Faced with the curvature of the edge of the new iPhone screen, no transparent screen protector can be applied perfectly. If you apply a stronger glass screen protector, it cannot even reach the width of the display area, and applying the screen protector will destroy the beauty of the front of the machine.

But the new iPhone has to be put on a screen protector. On the one hand, it is not wear-resistant. On the other hand, the inner and outer screens of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are integrated. If an accident occurs, it is not as simple as just replacing the outer screen.

In terms of later maintenance, the current price of replacing a 4.7-inch iPhone 6 screen in Beijing's Zhongguancun is basically between 1,000 yuan and 1,500 yuan. Apple has also recently launched a new "iPhone Support" repair service in overseas markets. Replacing an iPhone 6 screen costs US$109, and an iPhone 6 Plus costs as much as US$129, which is really expensive.

It seems that it is safer and more cost-effective to put a screen protector on the new iPhone.
