Tempered Glass vs. Hydrogel: Which Screen Protector is Right for You?
Battle of the Protectors
Two of the most popular screen protectors go head-to-head:
| Feature | Tempered Glass | Hydrogel Film |
| Protection | High (9H hardness) | Medium (scratch-resistant) |
| Feel | Smooth like glass | Slightly rubbery |
| Installation | Easy (static cling) | Self-adhesive, forgiving |
| Durability | Shatters on impact | Self-heals minor scratches |
Best For:
Tempered Glass: Drop protection, premium feel
Hydrogel: Curved screens, flexible fit
Pro Tip:
If you frequently drop your phone, go for tempered glass. For scratch resistance and a perfect fit, hydrogel is ideal.
