Hi, I just purchased the Razr yesterday and the salesman at the VZW store sold me the screen protectors.  I was under the understanding that the gorilla glass is scratch proof and I asked him that.  He said it will scratch.  Did I get sold something that is not needed just too make a sale?

This should speak for itself why the phone needs a screen protector.

I think my Tbolt has gorilla glass and I still put a screen protector on. It is more of a matter of preference to me.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

To answer both your questions, yes.  The Razr has a gorilla glass screen, and the guy was just trying to make a sale. They make a bundle with the case, charger, and screen protectors. I think they get paid comission so you cant blame him for trying. That screen is pretty much indestructible. I've seen people hit  them with knives and forks and nothing. One of the selling points of the phone.

I would'nt say indestructible if it's droped just right it can shatter it. Scratch proof there's factores there as well but Gorilla is way better than what we had a few years Back. That Said on my Droid X an my Incredible neather one has a So what you call a protective screen. They tried to do the you need it thing when i bought my X last year i told them to file an keep it. :smileywink: B33

Don't mistake scratch resistant for scratch proof. Gorilla glass, while supposedly more durable than other fortified glass, can indeed get scratched.  Better safe than sorry imo.

yeah haha the rep will sell the phone and its features talking up Gorilla Glass and how strong it is, but then when you agree to buy it turns into well you can still scratch it up.  

Also it seems stupid to buy a case.   Isnt it being so thin part of the appeal and now I'll put a big ugly case on it.   I'll put a case on it if I have an ugly scratch to cover.   Otherwise while its new and pretty I'll show it off uncovered.
