DON'T buy a Screen Protector before watching this. - Summary

Summary

The video discusses the comparison of three different tiers of screen protectors for iPhones, including a $1 one, a $40 one, and an $80 sapphire protector. The video tests their durability, scratch resistance, and impact resistance. Surprisingly, the $1 protector performs similarly to the $40 one in most tests, while the sapphire protector outperforms them all in terms of durability and scratch resistance. The conclusion is that you don't need to spend a lot on a screen protector, but if you want the best, sapphire is a good choice. The video also mentions SurfsharkVPN as a sponsor.

Facts

1. The speaker is discussing the price and performance of different screen protectors, noting that a high-endurance, smudge-resistant screen protector for a phone can be found for as little as 60 cents, while a similar protector for the same phone can cost forty dollars.

2. The speaker has three different screen protectors in front of them: a one-dollar tempered glass protector, a 40-dollar tempered glass protector from a company called Spec, and an 80-dollar sapphire screen protector from a company called Shelrus.

3. The speaker is testing the protectors on three new iPhone 12s.

4. The speaker notes that the 40-dollar protector from Spec and the 80-dollar protector from Shelrus both claim to be level nine in hardness, but the speaker finds this claim confusing as the cheaper protector also claims to be level nine in hardness.

5. The speaker tests the protectors by simulating a phone being jostled around in a pocket and by dropping the phone. They find that the sapphire protector from Shelrus withstands the tests better than the other two protectors.

6. The speaker concludes that while the sapphire protector is better in terms of resistance to impact, it is not worth the significantly higher price. They recommend a glass protector for those who want to protect their phone screen, but caution against spending a large amount on a screen protector.
