The Samsung Galaxy S10\u2019s Infinity Display curved screen is a significant selling point of the device and well worth protecting. Screen protectors can be cheap, but with the Galaxy S10, you will want to take your options into consideration and invest in the right screen protector.<\/p>\n

Plastic is far cheaper, and because many people prefer lower profile options when accessorizing their phones, its thinness can be attractive.\u00a0While glass protectors are usually .3mm or .5mm thick, plastic ones are about .15mm.<\/strong> However, because glass screen protectors are the same material as the actual screen when it comes down to how the protector actually feels and works, glass screen protectors are much lower profile than plastic. Some plastic screen protectors have the benefit of healing themselves when scratched, but plastic is a less sturdy material than glass and\u00a0offers less protection. The principal function of a screen protector is to protect the phone\u2019s display, so you will want to think twice before choosing based on protector thickness. Plastic will not shatter, but if you invest in a decent screen protector, you\u2019ll have less cause for worrying about your screen or the protector being shattered.<\/p>\n

Tempered glass screen protectors are pricier for several reasons. Glass is of higher quality material and is much harder, giving your screen crucial added protection. Because glass material is closer to that of the actual screen, inputs will be more accurate when gaming or typing and swiping motions are smoother. High-quality glass protectors with an oleophobic coating, which is resistant to oil and fingerprint stains.<\/strong> However, low-quality glass screen protectors will not give you the same tactile feel, and the oleophobic coating is often low-performance. Some glass screens also do not provide protection for the Galaxy S10\u2019s curved edges. Unfortunately, most glass screen protectors render the Galaxy S10\u2019s ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor feature unavailable.<\/p>\n
