Does this case help protect the screen from shattering if the phone is dropped?

Most likely it should, since it has a big lip over the screen, but screen protector is recommended, try throwing a tempered glass one on if possible, then you're set!

The case comes with a plastic screen protector and the actual case extends past the edges but fits not have a built in screen cover

Yes and no. It has a lip on it to help to try to prevent a shattering screen, but it all depends on how the phone is dropped. The screen is exposed.

No--It won't provide protection from cracks. However, it does a great job protecting your screen from scratches/abrasions. You can add some protection against drop-related cracks with a sturdy case like an OtterBox Defender.

Its really dosent protect the screen. I would recommend a screen protecter. But if your looking for something strong i would not recommend this case. Because if it drops the phone could brack.

Hello, no this case does not come with a screen protector, nor do it help when you drop your phone...I dropped my phone one time with the case on and my whole phone was destroyed.

It's a thin film of plastic; so I don't believe it will prevent breaks. The corners of the spigen case may offer some protection against breakage if the phone is dropped.

No. But it has a raised lip completely around the phone, so if it falls on any kind of a flat surface your phone glass should not break. This is the 2nd phone I've used this Ballistic case on, have had several drops with no breaks. You could put another cover on, but I've not felt the need to do it.

No if your phone fell the screen wouldn't be protected at all and I wouldn't be surprised if the case broke.

No but the case sticks out around the screen so that if dropped the screen doesn't come in contact during the impact of the fall!

This case itself has a rubber quality to it that would help with impact; however, the screen protector itself does not have any cushioning qualities if something were dropped directly on top of screen. The case does have a raised edge around screen area that would probably help prevent screen damage if phone were dropped.

It does not have a screen protector. A screen protector only protects the screen from scratches. It most likely will not prevent a broken screen if dropped. The case does protect the phone if dropped, including the corners. A drop on the corner is a big cause of cracked screens.

Yeah but not enough to really protect it much. I love the case but if you put your phone down screen first a lot, not the right one for you.

It does not. It doesn't offer much screen protection at all as it doesn't wrap around. Just last week we dropped the phone and the screen cracked. The cover is nice for aesthetics, but offers little protection to the phone.

No it protects the back. It has a little lip around the front. If the phone lands flat the front might not crack.

It will protect your phone if you drop it. My son was dropping & breaking his every other month. Since we purchased this, no breaks. Strong, durable case.

I have dropped my phone a couple time and there is no damage. The corners are protected by the hard plastic shell and there is a lip (thats not holding elasticity) that helps cushion the fall. But the screen is not protected.

No, it offers little protection against drops. Basically, protects against scratches only.

To some degree yes. It has a rim of protection around it that woukd cushion a fall. It woukd not protect against something that hit only the screen like a rock or anything else like that.
