Does this product really do much to prevent the screen from shattering upon impact?

I would not know from first hand experience. I do know that it gives avery resiliant finish that is almost impossible ti scratch or cut. My guess would be if aa screen took a direct hit from a hammer or rock, the scrren would break but not shatter.

It does absolutely nothing. My phone fell and shattered again one week after I bought the zag and out it on.

No, this case will not prevent your screen from cracking. The back glass will be more protected then the front glass.

I believe this rubberized case will absorb a lot of shock but if it falls a certain way, your screen will break. For example, as long as you don't land your ipad mini screen on a rock, you are fine:)

The way this case is made it actually comes out a little further than the phone will so if its dropped straight down then yes it will protect your phone screen but if its dropped and hits another object before landing then the other object may hit your screen. I also use the screen protectors and I haven't had any damage since buying this case. :)

Hello Isabella! my case is a little prominent, surrounding the screen, like a milimeter or two, so, if it falls horizontally, on a flat surface, the screen won't get in direct contact with it. It's great for minor drops. That doesn't mean the screen wouldn't get damaged though. If you drop from a different angle or if it falls from too high, or in high speed, like from a bike in motion... The screen might get damaged anyway. But I dropped mine while walking and jogging on the street a few times and nothing happened to the screen (neither to the rest of the phone, btw) I also use an invisible screen protector, so it's always free of minor scratches. I would recommend an invisible screen protector to any touchscreen owners. Although mine suffered a few bumps, it looks brand new! Hope this helps you! Lucy

I haven't had any problem with damaging the screen so far. If it happens, i'm gonna sue the company. Regardless, don't get this product... it's not that good.

I don't think the manufacturer of this case is or any case claims to prevent your phone's screen from shattering. My phone have fallen several times but screen always ok because I guess have a good screen protector.

I've been using this for about 3 or 4 months and i had no problems with getting damage on screen. It probably will if you slam it without the screen protector-- anything will do, really. I've never got any scratches on my screen, not even on my screen protector.

This will not protect any mechanical damage to screen (crack/break etc) from a fall. its just a screen protector, not a bumper case. It can though, protect your screen from accidental scratches or smudges. The touch sensors are not affected by the protector, it works perfectly fine.

No the screen seems pretty strong. I have a very thing phone case on it and drop the phone the other day. Nothing happened.

It is a great product but as for screen shattering, it offers no protection whatsoever if the phone falls onto a hard surface. $170 later, trust me on this one.

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.

I Recently dropped mine while exiting my car (It was on my lap). It fell about 4 feet onto the road. Through these same circumstances I have lost 3 screens (iPhone 5). But, all it did is scuff up a corner of the Outer ring but no real damage.

No it doesn't. But the outer edges are deep about a 1/4" so it doesn't allow the screen to hit the surface. If the screen hits a rock it would probably break, but a flat surface it would not.

Don't think that it will prevent screen cracking, but this is the ultimate in screen protectors.

I don't think it will keep it from cracking, but would help on chips and dings. If it hits just right and hard enough, they will still crack. Screen protectors are to help from scratches and minor chips/dings.

Yes it will protect the screen because it has a lip that covers the edges of the screen that will absorb the impact of the fall. (I've dropped my phone face first a few times already with the case on).
