Nope, I hate the way that they feel. Gorilla Glass/whatever they're putting on phones nowadays is pretty scratch-resistant by itself anyway.

if i could put one on without a million pieces of lint getting stuck to the glue thing and if it wasnt way weaker/uglier than the screen i mean like a lot of the time it just ends up even more scratched but at least it's not your phoooone

I agree this, the main reason I put screen protector on my sony is because my finger prints show up on the screen SUPER easy if I don't use screen protector  ^-^

Nah. Working construction there is a lot of **** that will wreck the screen.

I'm on a Nexus 5 and I use a screen protector and case. Wrecked countless phones.

A screen protector has saved my iphone 4s and iphone 6 from many scratches. The second reason is i believe the screen protector prevents the glass from shattering when it gets droppe, my belief is it has to do with increasing tensile strength holding the glass together.

Nah, get a good case and don't treat your phone like **** and you should be okay. On the older phones that had plastic screens they were certainly more useful.

...but I've pretty much stuck with HTC since 2005 or so...

I've yet to scratch the screen on my6, but holy **** is it a grease magnet. It's sometimes hard to see anything on the screen because I can see the finger prints or swipes all over it.
Wasn't an issue with my iPhone 4 or 5...


But I don't use a screen protector because they look and feel awful.
