Nowadays, more and more people are inseparable from mobile phones. Indeed, the functions of mobile phones are becoming more and more powerful. We have to spend a few thousand yuan to buy a mobile phone, and even some are tens of thousands of yuan. However, the most vulnerable part of the mobile phone is undoubtedly our mobile phone screen. Now, as long as we buy a new mobile phone, we will put a protective film on our mobile phone. But for now, there are two types, one is a tempered glass screen protector, and the other is a plastic screen protector. Which of the two is better? What is the difference between them?

First：The Material Structure

The plastic film structure of the mobile phone is generally a three-layer: a layer of release film + a protective film + a layer of release film, only the middle protective film will be attached to the screen of the mobile phone. The outer release film is to prevent the middle film from being dusted which protects the middle of the film.

The tempered glass screen protector is made of tempered glass, which can provide better scratch resistance than ordinary plastics, and the anti-fingerprint and the anti-oil effect is also better. And you can think of the tempered glass protector as the second external screen of the mobile phone. If the mobile phone falls, the tempered glass protective film can absorb a certain amount of damage, which can reduce the probability of broken screen.

Second: The Cost Aspect

The plastic screen protector production process is simple, the cost is low, and the tempering glass screen protector process is relatively complicated and the cost is high. In addition, because it is made of glass, the periphery of the tempered glass film is easily damaged. At this time, special treatment is required to make the hardness of the periphery of the film relatively high. Therefore, the cost of the tempered glass screen protective film is relatively high compared to the cost of the plastic film.

Third：The Durability

• The glass material is subjected to high-temperature tempering treatment, and the hardness is much higher than that of ordinary film. The common tools, keys and the like in daily life do not scratch the glass protective film. The plastic film is different. Scratches will appear when we using a few days. The things that can scratch them are everywhere, such as keys, knives, zipper heads, buttons, nibs, etc. But it is thinner than tempered glass screen protector.

• The surface of the glass film is treated with a coating to make the touch smoother, so that the unpleasant fingerprints are no longer easy to remain, most plastic films are less sensitive to touch.

• Tempered glass protective film has good light transmission, good surface performance, good oleophobic and hydrophobic feel, not easy to stain, easy to clean, easy to fit, and has certain protective functions.

• Because the material of the tempered glass is hard and difficult to bend, it is very difficult to fit on the current curved screen mobile phone, and the plastic film is soft and complete enough to fit the surface of the curved screen, so that the coverage is more comprehensive and perfect.
