Back when cell phone's first became popular, their screens were annoyingly small. Many times, cell phone screens were no larger than an inch and a half across. People never imagined that phones would become as advanced as they are today. Today, many cell phones are equipped with large, high resolution screens. It's not just that either: touch screens have become more popular than ever. Still, even with the fact the consumers love their larger, interactive screens, and there is still one downside: they are now more prone to damage, and one crack or scratch can ruin the whole thing.

When most people get a cell phone, they know that they need to invest in a good case. Most people begin searching for the highest quality Motorola Atrix accessories, HTC Thunderbolt accessories, and HTC Inspire accessories, as well as accessories for other popular models. But after all that, people still forget to purchase a screen protector. If you have a touch screen, you need a screen protector. Since you will be constantly touching the screen, you will constantly be getting the screen dirty and there's a good chance the screen will end up scratched. By using a screen protector, you'll be keeping your screen safe from scratches, fingerprints, and other dirt.

Screen protectors will also give your screen some extra support in a fall. If you drop your phone, there is a chance that the screen will shatter. If the screen shatters, you'll either need to have the phone repaired or get a new phone. Many people assume that their screen is safe just because they have a case on their phone. But remember, cell phone cases won't protect the phone's screen. If the phone were to land face down, on a hard object, there is a good chance the screen would break. While a screen protector would not necessarily save the screen, it would offer an extra layer of protection.

But if your phone's screen is already scratched, there are also several scratch-remover products that you can use too. Scratch removers are creams that will help make the screen a little more pliable. This allows people to buff out scratches, as long as they aren't too deep. The problem with these products is that they will remove the top layer of a cell phone's screen. So if a person has a touch screen, they will want to use these products with caution. Scratch remover is not something that should be used every day. If the scratch is too deep then the screen will need to be replaced so it can be very worth a try.

The easiest way to keep a cell phone looking and working like new is to arm it with the best protective accessories. Screen protectors are some of the best accessories that users can buy. Luckily, if you forget a screen protector, there are accessories that can help you fix your screen. But it is much better to protect your phone, than to have to fix it when it becomes damaged.
