I was just using my phone and just realized that my screen is scratched! Its a fairly deep scratch. I don't abuse my phone either. So much for gorilla glass. Got my replacement coning in tomorrow.
Aw that's terrible, sorry about that. Do they just send a prepaid return box with your new phone? Or do you have to go without your D3 for a week? Because that would be unreasonable lol

They send a prepaid return box next day air. Thank goodness.
VZW is sending you a replacement phone 'cause your screen is scratched?
Are you using insurance or is this an available option for all?
I ask because my "Gorilla Glass?" is also scratched up after a month running naked (my OG has 0 scratches after two years!).

It seems like gorilla glass has gotten not so "gorilla" lately. The og droids screen was extremely difficult to scratch. But the past 3 phones that i owned, have scratched very easily in weeks. Its a shame.
They rip you off on the screen protectors. I have no scratches but I spent like $12 for 3 for me and my girlfriend, then I got addicted to amazon and found a 3 pack for 3 dollars. -___-
I found screen protectors for .90 with free shipping

On eBay, you can often get 3 for $1, with free shipping.
In my experience, the cheaper screen protectors are just that, cheaper. if you spend a bit more money on it then you might get yourself a really good screen protector that will feel like the original screen on the phone when you touch it. Of course, that's just my experience though

I don't use any screen protector but I do have a case which faces the phone in and keeps the screen from getting scratched. I've tried a few protectors in the past and they always seemed to mess with the haptic feedback in some way.
I've dropped my Droid 3 on asphalt and didn't get a scratch on the glass.
I dropped mine earlier and chipped it a little near the corner it landed on.. in one of the few places my shell leaves exposed. Fail.

I've had my Nexus One for about a year. I have a couple scratches on my screen even with Gorilla Glass. The scratches are definitely from keys. I also have a few nicks on the body. I went a month with a pouch/case and screen protector but after about a month I realized how you totally lose the design of a phone with cases'. So I think when I get my Nexus S, Im gonna use a pouch and just rock my phone fully NAKED, who cares if you scratch the screen or the body, Its just a phone. In about a year when your going to sell it, its already dated and worth little to nothing, How much is a 6/10 condition Nexus One Vs a 9/10 Nexus One?
im looking for a pouch too. i love the way the stock phone feels on my hand.
i'm not using any screen protectors for about a month, and no scratch till now

Because there are small spots on my screen where the coating is gone (or seems that way anyways). There are others who have experienced this also in the big "oleophobic coating" topic. It can only be seen under light in a certain angle, but it's definitely there. The screen protector negates the effect so I don't see it anymore. Weird, but that's why I use a screen protector.

I don't use a screen protector, had my phone since the week it was launched in the UK and I don't have any scratches on it.
I always think they look rubbish, no matter how neatly they are put on.
i dont even use one on my evo, unless your working in the trades I dont think most people will benefit from using a protector
No screen protector since day 1 in december, no scratches either despite some bad drops on concrete which have dented the plastic around the screen.
Glass is tough!
I think building up a castle around a phone is "iPhone user style"
So I know Zagg is a really nice screen protector. But, a buddy of mine got it and itdoesn't fit the screen perfectly since it was designed off of the original Bionic specs and not on the updated ones.
Therefore, are there other screen protectors that are just as reliable and fitted for the Bionic?

seriously? i already ordered one and im going to be mad if it doesnt fit right!!
They are already sending out the new redesign to retailers, I used the old one just fine. They sent me a replacement after I called them and told them about the screw up. It should be here early in the week.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
So I bought one today. It fits fine. Don't know if Best Buy received the updated protectors, but it looks like the reason it doesn't fill the screen is because of the slight bevel around the edge. I wasn't fully aware of the bevel until I looked close. I was too busy playing with all the features. LOL
I got a Zagg from best buy as well, and the image on the box looks like the old Bionic design, not the current one. It fits okay, leaving room for the light sensors and camera and such, and goes close enough to the edges of the screen for me. If they come out with a new design I'll just get Zagg to fulfill me a new screen.
Mine should be here early next week too

Guys, you really don't need screen-protectors. The Bionic has the same Gorilla Glass as the OG that many of use abused for almost 2 years without issues.
Watch any number of youtube videos about it. This is the one that convinced me that screen-protectors are a scam:

The selling of millions of something isn't evidence that something is necessary (i.e. not a scam) *cough*monstercables*cough*
But you're completely right - for many/most phones it probably makes sense; just not Bionic.
I ordered an XO Skins screen protector for my Bionic and it should come in this week. I have one on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and was very impressed with it. Heres my review for my SGT version if anyone is interested.

Gorilla glass isn't invincible. It's more about not shattering than it is about protecting scratches. I don't know about you, but getting a scratch on the screen is one of the worst things that can happen to one of my phones. It's like my eyes are drawn to the scratch.
Gorilla glass can definitely get scratched, but its hard to shatter like traditional screens.
Check out this "realistic scratch test" done on Gorilla glass. The phone drops and slides on the pavement which has definitely happened to me before. Even with gorilla glass, that screen gets messed up.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EimSyAIuDoI
I used to think the same thing, that gorilla glass was invincible. Then, I scratched the eff out of my screen without a protector and vowed that I would never sacrifice a 600 dollar phone to save 15 bucks.
So, a 15 dollar screen protector is worth protecting a 600 device.
So many people think Gorilla glass is invincible, but its really not. It can be scratched quite easily. It might not break if you drop it, but it will definitely get scratched and I can't stand scratched screens!
Sand will scratch Gorilla Glass for sure. I had my OG for 2 years almost, and never got a major scratch, but when my Bionic came I went ahead and installed the screen protector that came with my Otterbox Commuter. I agree when you spend this much on a phone why chance it over 15 bucks or so.

If you bought one of the screen protectors they sell at the Verizon store they have an anti glare film or coating on it that could make it look a bit dull when the screen is off. Zagg sells screen protectors that are kinda gel like... that might be the one your friend has. I used a the Zagg protectors for my old phone and it worked well.
The prices are
*Maximum Coverage for $24.99
*Full Body Easy Install for $24.99
*Screen Coverage for $14.99

my buddy had a little too much to drink and tossed my phone onto concrete with a fair amount of heft.. no screen damage, no case.

I may be alone in this, but I think screen protectors are overrated. The biggest danger to the screen is shattering and no screen protector will prevent that. Unless you have diamonds in your pockets I cannot imagine scratching it without breaking it completely. .

That is a good point, which would go more towards purchasing a case rather than a screen protector, though i have a major pet peeve when it comes to my screen having any sort of scratch..let alone cracks..but IMO i do believe having a well made screen protector on or screens do provide a lesser chaw of getting cracks if the device were to drop!

I was using invisishield protector for a few a months. Was a pretty decent protector. Didn't tear, anti glare and all that jazz. I ended up taking it off about 4 months ago because the protector itself was scratched and to be honest, since I removed it I've been asking myself why I bought one in the first place. 4 months later, not a single scratch and I think I have enjoyed the phone more without it. Screen is clear, sharp and bright and still without scratches. Often put in my pocket with keys, lighter and other hazardous materials for out phones.

same here, what will be the point in selling a super scratch free 2 years old obsolete phone .....
just like the slightly scratched glass on my iphone 3gs I gave to my kids as an ipod touch
I see I'm in the minority here but screen protectors just don't have the same smoothness as the gorilla glass. Coming from a Samsung Impression it felt like I was running my fingers on silk. And after 4 months of always being on my person I can attest gorilla glass is pretty kick ass. I've dropped the phone onto a gravel street and got very minimal damage. Now mind you the phone bounced, landed and skidded about 10' on the kevlar back so maybe it was just a small miracle it didn't shatter. But the only damage was a small knick in the glass on the top corner away from the touch screen and a small dent in the metal around the face. The kevlar took no damage at all. I've also had in a pocket with loose change and keys with no effect.
Now maybe I'm just lucky but the kevlar backing and silky smooth touch of the gorrilla glass as opposed to having to change screens and getting a bulky case that won't fit the HD dock just aren't comparable.
I go a couple of scratches on my screen, probably from it being dropped in the gym and all that good stuff. I went ahead and got a Zagg screen protector off amazon. It's not too bad for the 10 bucks I spent.

It was part of the promotion they were having. I traded in a 4s and 5c and got my wife a iphone6, me a droid 64gig, glass screen protector for me. Her a case, glass screen protector. A wireless charging pad and 2 more chargers. Out the door was 201. And 100 off my bill. And even though he said I wouldn't be able to, for some reason I kept unlimited data. I was ready to loss it but it staid. It took almost an hour to transfer my wife's stuff, Apple issues lol so a lot of hook ups to apologize I think lol. He kept adding stuff as we waited. Very good vz rep! =)
I picked up the flexible glass screen protector from Verizon for only 17 or 18 bucks. Its crazy thin and had the believe its actually glass. I do wish the dimensions were slightly bigger and that it it would fully extend to the edges of the phone's screen. Its not a bid deal with the defender case on, it covers the remaining unprotected portion.
The screen protector was easy to put on and had no issues with touch sensitivity by its self. I also have a defender case too, but found that with the screen protector and the defenders plastic one it was a bid much and the touch sensitivity was bad. I peeled off the defenders plastic one and it works just fine now.
Just got this glass screen protector yesterday and its awesome! Just hate how it doesn't cover from edge to edge.
Looks like Zagg is making a glass one as well, according to someone on AndroidCentral.

I purchased the moto x (2014) glass from Verizon and it fits perfect on the turbo. I wanted really tempered glass and not the thing flex glass.

Could you possibly take a pic and post it of how exactly the fit is on the turbo? If not then maybe a explanation

Are the edges rounded or squared? I would think your finger would catch a lot with the capacitive buttons
only time my fingers catch is when trying to use google now short cut but with google launch very rarely use the swipe up from home key
In another month there will probably be 40 different kinds out there. I had the one from VZ but it made certain areas of the screen not respond as they should with the otterbox defender. for instance to pull down the top menu to see notifications would take 3-4 tries. The defender already has a screen cover so I took the one off from verizon. Works perfect now. I will probably try again with a Zagg.
Xtremeguard has released the spartan glass now.
