iPhone 14 Pro - Screen Protector yes or no?

Hello,


I've been using iPhones since the iPhone 3G, and almost always never used a case or screen protector. I may have just been incredibly fortunate but I never found any damage to the phone or screen on the 6 or 7 handsets I had over the years, until, I had the iPhone 11. Sadly, the screen was scratched within 1 or 2 weeks, Phone was treated exactly the same as my others, always put in trouser pocket on its own (no money or keys etc....) - it seemed others online had similar issues but I had to accept it for what it was at the time.


This isn't a post to complain about the devices, just keen to understand having just been gifted the iPhone 14 pro, do I need a screen protector? Is it more like the 11, or the previous models for scratch durability?

I've read up on the new ceramic shield but just wanted some community feedback..


Thanks

Doug

Need? That's a decision you should make. I have only owned one iPhone without a screen protector. And it soon proved to be a huge mistake. I would never personally own an iPhone, which now costs in the $1,000 range without a good quality screen protector. Once an iPhone screen is scratched, it can't be unscratched, which is reason enough to protect your investment.
