Cell Phone Protection: Cases, Covers and Screen Protectors

We’ve all been there before – you drop your phone, face down. There’s a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach as you bend down to pick it up. Drops can cause major damage to a cell phone. Luckily, there are ways to protect your phone from the hazards of daily life. Cell phone protection can help your phone survive drops, encounters with liquids, kids, and everyday wear and tear.

Types of Cell Phone Protection

Cell phone protection can include a number of precautions that will help to prevent damage and keep your phone in working order.

Get a Screen Protector

While even a simple piece of plastic stuck to the screen of your phone can keep your screen from getting scratched, there’s a reason tempered glass screen protectors are the best protectors in the industry. In a fall, it can protect the screen from cracking or keep an already broken screen from shattering even more. Installing a tempered glass screen protector on your device such as an InvisibleShield screen protector will help you rest assured knowing your phone is safe from cracks and scratches.

Find a Case

There are thousands of different options for cases, some are bulkier than others. Find one that you can live with but also one that can help cushion the phone from a fall. There are many cases that are more decorative than protective, so whatever you choose, understand the level of protection and make sure you can live with it.

Keep Your Phone in a Plastic Bag

This tip is great for going to the beach, on hikes, or any other outdoor activity. Also, keep your phone away from your keys, they can scratch the screen or nick the edges of the phone.
