Have you ever dropped something on your phone and cracked your screen?
Or maybe your phone slipped out of your hand and took a beating on the ground?
In both cases you have to pay either the big brand like Apple or some high-street mobile repair company hundreds of £££s just to get a small broken part fixed. Even if you have insurance you’ll still have to go through the hassle of getting it replaced/sent off and fixed!
Phones aren’t made like old Nokias any more, they break all too easy. That’s why it’s so important to always use protection when it comes to the things most important to you – and nowadays we live on our phones, tablets and computers. This is the way.
Something I use is called a Tempered Glass Screen Protector, and I recommend everyone get one too. They’re fairly easy to install nowadays as they usually come with an installation kit. Here’s some examples: https://smile.amazon.co.uk/s?k=tempered+glass+screen+protector
Also, make sure you have a proper sturdy phone case too, because all too often we buy flimsy cases that look good aesthetically, but will do nothing to protect your phone when it’s going to take some damage. I recommend the “Rugged” cases as they give great protection and it’s the one I have too. Check it out here: https://smile.amazon.co.uk/s?k=rugged+phone+case
But you’ve got to make sure it’s the right size for your phone, and that applies to both screen protectors and phone cases. When searching always include the phone make and model to ensure you find the ones that are correct for your device!

TRANSCRIPT
Hello, everyone. This is Virr from Ignite It and this is our What The Tech vlog where we use apps, services, and other tech
and share our experiences for you to learn from.
So this week, I’m actually talking about something a little bit different, it’s protection.
So I’ve had quite a few people that I’ve worked with that have phones with scratches and scuffs and different marks on them; and what I recommend to all of them is two different things, one is have a very a solid phone case that will protect your phone if you drop it, and the other one is actually on the front of the phone is to have something called a tempered glass screen protector.
Now, this is a screen protector that’s a bit harder than your sort of thin plastic screen protector.
It’s rated that if you drop it, and I’ve had this in the past where the whole screen protector is cracked, but the screen underneath is completely fine.
So it’s a very very good piece of protection for your phone that is actually very cheap as well, about £6-£10, and you know to install it nowadays a lot of them come with tools to help you put it on properly so you can even do that yourself.
So I just wanted to share that because I found that it’s really really important to have some good protection for these devices that we pay hundreds of pounds for.
You might be able to actually feel a lot safer f you have good protection around your phone.
Now, obviously this doesn’t really protect it from someone stealing it but there are actually apps and services to help you deal with that.
So I’ll go into that in another video.
But hope you appreciate that message, definitely look up tempered glass screen protectors and good phone cases.
I’d recommend sort of silicone ones a lot of people like to go for extra thin ones or leather ones.
I mean, there’s a lot of different styles of phone cases and you can get ones that are a good replacement for your wallet.
One of my friends has that and you know, I definitely recommend looking into what’s right for you.
I don’t have any particular suggestions, but please make sure that you have protection on your phone.
Thank you very much for watching that video.
And if you have any questions or topics that you want me to talk about then let me know and see you in the next video.
