Do You Need a Screen Protector?

For scratches: No. Sapphire is harder than any screen protector material—the protector would scratch before the sapphire.

For impacts: Optional. Sapphire can shatter under extreme impacts (rare), but a protector provides minimal additional protection.

Most users skip screen protectors entirely thanks to sapphire crystal.

Additional Durability

Beyond sapphire crystal:

MIL-STD-810H military-grade certification
5ATM + IP68 water and dust resistance

Raised bezel protects display edge

Care Tips

Wipe with microfiber cloth for daily cleaning
Use mild soap and water for stubborn marks
Avoid harsh chemicals (can damage seals)
Store separately from diamond jewelry

Real-World Durability

Most users report zero scratches after months of daily use. Sapphire crystal maintains a like-new appearance far longer than standard glass.
