5 Hacks To Protect Your Phone From Scratches

New smartphones rarely manage to maintain their perfect look for long time. The back of the phone is usually get scratches, and small "bruises" begun to appear on the display. The cause of large cracks on your device is often the fall of the phone from a height on a hard surface. This is mostly accidental, for example, when you trying to get your device out of pocket or purse.

Often, new scratches on your device might be a result of contact of the screen with solid objects - such as keys, lighter and even coins. Therefore, it is important to carry a smartphone in a special case in a separate pocket. In addition, your clean new gadget will quickly lose its marketable appearance if you take it with you to the beach. Even the smallest grains of sand are enough to leave damage to the surface of the display. So, how to protect your phone from scratches?

1. Protective Film on the Display

Glossy and matte films are widely used to protect the display surface. The phone's screen protector may suffer stress or friction damage if a large amount of pressure is applied to the surface of the leather cover when it is closed, or if hard foreign objects (such as grains of sand or shards of metal) become caught between the inner surface of the cover and the protector. Matte films do not create glare, they are resistant to scratches and fingerprints do not remain on them, but the image quality is worse than default film.

Vinyl stickers and polyurethane films are also often used for covering the surface of the device. Vinyl stickers are well fixed on the body of the smartphone, they are not afraid of dust and small crumbs, giving the phone a unique look.

2. PU-based Films

Polyurethane films resist scratches well, after a while they tighten themselves, relatively strong, but such films can quickly turn yellow or pick up paint from the phone cover. How to protect your phone from scratches? For this purpose, in addition to films, there are also special protective covers. They differ from the films that protect the phone from dust and scratches in that they can protect the device from bumps and falls.

3. Protective Glass 

It is difficult to find a gadget without protected glass now. Protective glass takes care of all the problems, and the replacement is not so expensive to neglect the opportunity to keep the device safe from incoming damage.

There is no specific timeframe for replacing a protective glass. The properties of the glasses do not depend on the date when it was pasted on your smartphone.  It is recommended to replace the protective glass with a new one in case of cracks, chips. Sand or dust can get into such damage, which will be the main cause of damage to the original display. When this happens, the glass goes into a state where the level of protection is reduced, which also affects the deterioration of the display's view and aesthetic appearance.

4. Phone Covers

Let's dwell in more detail on each of their types of covers. Silicone covers: can protect the phone from scratches, and provide a good grip of the device, as well as give the phone a good look. Disadvantages include the accumulation of grease from the skin and dust over time, as well as the discomfort of carrying the device in a tight pocket, as silicone clings to clothing. Leather covers: protect the phone from scratches and an internal shock absorber to defend against damage.

5. LED Phone Cases

LED phone cases are great choice for protecting your device from scratches on the phone. LED light cases are designed in the form of overlays (to create basic protection against weak shocks and scratches) - they consist of two parts: soft TPU case and hard glass cover.

Dropping on soft surfaces is safe and does not cause any harm, but if the gadget hits the floor, asphalt or other hard surfaces - expect trouble. The common problem - scratches on the screen & case. Repair will be expensive, but to prevent the problem you can much cheaper with the following means of protection.

How To Prevent Fall Damage of Your Phone

For one, kids are much more liable to drop that phone. One of the best tips we can give on how prevent dropping of your phone is to keep it safely tucked away out of less secure hands.
