Do I still need a screen protector and does case help prevent damage to dropped phones?

It does not have a screen. I dropped my phone twice and both times the phone popped out. I was lucky it didn't break. I plan on replacing the case.

Yes you would, and it would if it lands on the sides, the top and bottom are left exposed.

It only protects the back and side. The front, top and bottom are completely exposed.

Yes. It will still need a screen protector. I would say it has minimal protection against damage for a dropped phone. If you drop it and it lands on a corner, my guess is the phone may be safe but the case would be toast. You would definitely need to order a new case. If you are careful with your phone (like my boss' wife), it should be fine.

Yes, you will still need a screen protector. I have been told by others that this is not enough protection if the phone is dropped on a hard surface. I'm being extra careful.

It does not come with a screen protector. If you want one you have to buy it seperatley and it is up to you if you want to protect your screen or not. I havn't dropped my phone yet with this case. So i am unsure if it will protect it. I think a case with the bumpers will protect it from damage more when you drop it.

I had the pink case and it didn't scratch. It didn't protect my phone on a short drop though, which is the most important reason to get a case. Just keep that in mind.

Yes, you would still need a case. Any case would work really. I heard that you just can't use a 2-piece slide on case because those would lift the screen protector.

It does protect the screen. The case has a slightly raised edge around the entire face of the phone. So you can lay it face down on a table without scratching or even drop it and it will protect the face. It's not a very thick case though so it won't offer as much protection from drops as say an otterbox case would. But the face of your phone should not come into contact with a surface if dropped.

No. You'd have to buy a screen protector. But the case does protect the front from falls.

I would say yes. This screen protector will protect the front of the phone from scratches but that's about it. You will need a case to absorb any type of "impact" from a drop. Silicone soft vases work the best for absorbing the shock.

No. As the phones use "Gorilla Glass" for the screen, you don't really need a screen protector unless you are going to throw the phone on the ground and stomp on it.

If you drop your phone face down, it won't survive. Not many cases will keep your screen safe. Get a case and also get a glass screen protector. That will be your best bet. That's what I have

A pliable screen protector comes with the case I bought. Had already purchased one separately so I did not use.

It will prevent your phone from scratches but I have one of the thin screen protectors on my phone to protect the screen. Seriously a great case has protected my phone from cracking due to numerous drops by little kids.

This case [in my experience] has been very protective for me, the case does wrap around the top and all the sides, but does not cover the volume buttons or the power button. But I would recommend getting a screen protector or something to help protect your screen, with this case my phone has been fine, but I have dropped it face first onto concrete without a case and it hasn't shattered so I may just have a lucky phone, but I would suggest maybe getting a screen protector or just be really careful, but hopefully your phone is as rugged as mine and you can get any case without worry! Hope this helped! [And sorry if this was confusing a little, I get off topic sometimes. (: ]

The screen protector is optional, It is better to use it your screen is protected from scratches, cracks, and etc. Also when you drop your phone.

Yes, I'm using a case for my phone too. If you pay attention when putting the protector on your screen you'll not develop bubbles (in the package you have the instructions how to do it). The Screen protector is really thin, almost invisible.

Well, this case isn't made for hard falls or extra screen protection, its flexible and slim so you always need to be careful. Adding a screen protection helps as well. If you think its going to fall easily or frequently get something with more protection..Best Regards

No, you still need a screen protector. The case snaps around the edges but doesn't cover anything that functions on the phone.

No the screen protector is attached to the case so you don't need to have a screen protector if its in the case. Hope that answers your question.

You don't need a screen protector if your case has a screen cover. A screen protector is used when your case does not protect the screen.
