I then went on a search to see if anyone has done any scratch tests on the screen and here are some videos that I found that show the durability of the iPhone screen. Here are 3 videos that I found that show off the durability of the iPhone screen. The first 2 are from PCMag and really put the iPhone through a pretty good test.

So what is my recommendation to protect your iPhone? Invest in a good case to protect the shell of your phone, but I wouldn’t worry too much about protecting your screen. While I have never personally put my phone through a test like in any of the above videos, I have dropped my phone a few times, face first and the screen has survived unscratched.

What are your thoughts?
