Article: Glass on Glass: Does Your Smartphone Need Extra Cover?
We layer up for a reason - coats over jumpers, duvets over sheets, and yes, screen protectors over smartphone glass. But when your phone is already fitted with a fancy Ceramic Shield, is adding a screen protector simply overkill?
Let’s take a closer look at the idea of glass on glass - a modern-day armour layering that may seem redundant but often makes a lot more sense than meets the eye.
What's your phone made of?
Most modern smartphones come equipped with seriously strong screens - scratch-resistant, smudge-fighting, and tough enough to survive a casual drop from the kitchen counter. Materials like Apple’s Ceramic Shield are nothing to scoff at.
But even these supercharged screens aren’t indestructible. Tiny sand particles in your pocket, a jangle of keys, or a sneaky slip off the armrest can still cause chaos. These high-tech screens are resistant, not invincible. And repair costs? Let’s just say they rarely come cheap.
layering logic
So, why double up? Well, think about how and where you use your phone. If you're a city commuter squeezing onto busy trains, a parent letting toddlers take the reins (or the phone), or someone whose phone seems magnetically drawn to pavements, a screen protector is more than sensible - it’s essential.
That's where our premium tempered glass screen protectors come in
They’re your phone’s first line of defence, taking the hit so your actual screen doesn’t have to. For the photo fanatics, our Camera Lens Protectors keep your snaps sharp while shielding your lenses from scuffs and scratches.
Slim Protection, strong style
Worried about bulk? Don’t be. Our protectors are designed to be feather-light and barely-there, so they don’t cramp your phone’s style - or your fingers' flow.
Speaking of sleek, have you seen our new Leather Bumper Phone Cases? They're available for select newer models and are the perfect partner for a screen protector. With a slimline profile and a touch of premium leather, they offer elegant protection without the padding. It's a match made in mobile heaven - luxury meets logic.

After all, when it comes to something you use every day, a little extra cover is a clear win.
