Can a screen protector hide screen scratches? (Can screen scratches still be seen after applying a screen protector?)

        One question that obviously people who haven't used a screen protector has is whether using a screen protector can hide existing display scratches. The answer is: it depends on the size of the scratch.

        First, it depends on the severity of the scratch. Obviously, the deeper the scratch, the less likely it is to disappear beneath the protective layer. But most of the time it depends on the protector you have applied. If your goal is to hide scratches, your best option is to use a protective film with a liquid adhesive. The liquid will fill the tiny gaps left by the scratch, and once the protective film is on, it may disappear completely.

        For very small scratches, even a regular screen protector is enough to cover them up.

        With so many options available at affordable prices, installing a screen protector for your device has become a breeze. PET film products are the best choice for basic screen protection. TPU cases may be a bit rare, but they offer the best ratio of affordability and toughness.

        Finally, tempered glass protectors offer better protection and feel, but they are more expensive. Still, even the more expensive offerings make sense for flagship smartphones and tablets. Unlike protective cases, they barely change the look of your high-end device, but can save you money on screen repairs.
