Screen protection is one of the main conditions for the durability of any modern smartphone With touch screen. Due to the fact that the fragile surface may not survive a fall even from a small height, it is better to purchase a suitable coating immediately after purchasing the phone. Thanks to ease of use, the most optimal choice is glass, since the films perform more of a cosmetic function and protect only from scratches, so now we will tell you how to stick protective glass to the phone yourself.

Preparatory operations

First of all, you should make sure that the room in which the operation will be performed will be very clean. Even those specks of dust that are suspended in the air can interfere with the successful completion of the procedure. Clinging to the statically magnetized surface of the glass, they will provoke the appearance of air bubbles on its surface, which will be impossible to expel from under it.

Therefore, it is worth doing a few simple things:

• Scissors – useful for cutting tape.
• Any bank card or similar flat item that is wide enough to cover the entire width of the screen.
• A cloth is usually included with the glass itself, but it would be a good idea to prepare your own, preferably one made of microfiber so that it absorbs liquids well.
• Scotch tape - for eliminating minor defects.
• Alcohol or other volatile liquid that can quickly degrease the screen surface.

When everything is ready, you can start gluing. It won't take much time if you do everything according to the instructions right away.

It is worth noting that the preparatory stage is practically the main component of the entire process. Step by step it looks like this:

1. Degrease the surface. This is a mandatory procedure; any foreign stain will prevent the two flat parts from adhering well.
2. After treating with the product, you need to wipe the entire surface of the screen dry. In this case, you will have to make sure that no dust flakes get on it.
3. Take the glass and remove the protective film from one of its sides. The stickers on the edges should tell you which side to use - you need to remove the one that is either indicated by the screen icon or the number “1”.
4. Match all the cutouts on the glass with the corresponding ones on the screen. Lean it against one of the edges, preferably the bottom or top.
5. Gently lower the glass and let it stick to the surface. This process will be visible, it resembles a wave spreading across the screen.

After the protective glass has stuck, carefully examine the resulting result. There should be no bubbles on the surface of the display. If something goes wrong and they are still there, you need to take a card or other flat object and expel the air off the screen. This may not work if there is a speck of dust inside the bubble. Then you will have to peel off the glass partially and remove the piece with tape. For this it is better to use a regular transparent one. It will not damage the adhesive structure of the surface.

VIDEO DESCRIPTION

How much does protective glass for phones cost?

Today, hundreds of companies around the world are engaged in the production of protective glass.

The most budget-friendly options, of course, are offered by Chinese companies, whose products can be easily ordered through Aliexpress.

However, the basis of the products of any manufacturer is tempered glass; only the degree of its hardening differs.

The price can vary significantly depending on quality indicators, as well as the reputation of the manufacturer.

So, for iPhone 6 you can purchase anti-reflective glass DF iBlickGlass-03 with a transparent matte surface and a hardness of 9H. The cost starts from 1500 rubles.

As for simpler options, for example, those made in China, the average cost for them starts from 900 rubles. This is almost twice as high compared to films. Many people ask the question: is it worth overpaying?

Maybe stick with film?

The film copes with the task of protecting against scratches, but if dropped, it cannot always protect the screen from cracks. It is more difficult to glue, air bubbles often remain, and dirt quickly gets clogged inside. Glass is more convenient in this regard, it will last longer and provide more reliable protection to the screen. However, you really have to pay extra for these amenities.

If you don’t glue the glass yourself, you will have to additionally pay for the services of a specialist who will take on this task, and that’s another few hundred rubles. Such masters work in any service centers for phone repair, as well as in stores selling smartphones.

Thus, the cost of purchasing and installing glass on a smartphone will be at least 1,500 rubles, but this is really profitable, because replacing a broken screen will cost an average of 3,000 rubles, especially when it comes to Apple products.

What is safety glass

The main function of protective glass is that it protects the fragile screen from various mechanical damage. The glass is flexible enough to absorb direct impacts. Phone protective glass is chemically treated and tempered, so it protects the screen from chips, cracks and scratches much better than a protective film. Glass is superior to film, primarily in thickness and hardness. For example, there are glasses with a thickness of 0.5 millimeters. According to the Mohs scale, the hardness value of protective glass is 9 H.

The Mohs scale includes 10 reference materials from talc to diamond to determine the hardness of a material. Thus, 9 H (Hardness) means that the protective glass on the phone is very close in hardness to the most indestructible mineral.

The protective glass can be easily scratched with a knife or keys; such mechanical action will not leave any traces. Even from a direct blow with a heavy object, such as a hammer, the glass will not shatter into pieces, but will only become covered with cracks. In this case, the phone itself will remain intact.

The protective glass has a five-layer structure:

• silicone base
• containment layer
• anti-glare layer
• protective layer
• oleophobic coating

The glass installed on the phone does not affect color rendering and does not interfere with the conduction of electrostatic impulses from the fingers to the screen. However, it is worth considering that after installing the glass, the phone may gain a little weight.

The issue price for protective glass ranges from 500 to 3000 rubles, depending on the manufacturer.

In order to stick a protective glass on your phone, you will need:

• Wet wipe
• Dry cloth
• Screen cleaning liquid
• Scotch
• Glass

Stage 1: Preparing the work surface

Before applying the protective glass to your phone, it is important to clean the work surface of the table. Before doing this, wash your hands with soap and dry. The table must be thoroughly wiped, as the smallest dust caught between the glass and the screen will negate all efforts. It is also advisable to set good lighting so as not to miss stains or dust particles.

Step 2: Clear the screen

After the table is prepared, you need to clean the phone screen itself from grease stains and dust. To do this, you can take a regular napkin and moisten it in a special liquid for displays and monitors. Or take a special damp cloth, wipe the screen thoroughly, and then walk over the screen with a dry cloth. Dust can also be removed with regular tape. After applying the adhesive tape, the screen also needs to be thoroughly wiped.

Stage 3: Installing glass

Now you can glue the protection. The glass must be removed from the packaging and the film carefully removed from it. Holding the glass by the edges, you should accurately fit it to the phone screen. Then lower the glass and press it lightly with a dry cloth.

Step 4: Removing Bubbles and Dust

Even if you glue the protective glass onto your phone evenly, it is not always possible to avoid small “jambs”. For example, small air bubbles may form between the glass and the screen. In this case, use a dry cloth to press the screen towards the edges to remove any bubbles. If, despite all cleaning efforts, dust still gets under the glass, carefully bend the edge of the glass and remove the dust with tape or a special dust collector.

If you decide to purchase a protective glass for your iPhone, check out the basic tips for choosing this accessory:

• The thickness of the glass determines the level of protection of the phone from falls and shocks;
• select the type of glass - matte or glossy. The second option is cheaper. Glossy products protect the screen from impacts, but not from scratches;
• Frosted glass completely protects your iPhone from bumps, abrasions, drops and glare.

Installing a protective accessory on your phone screen does not require special skills. Let's take a closer look at how to stick protective glass on an iPhone in a few simple steps.

Step 1: Clean the display

Get your workspace in order. Make sure there is no dust on the surface that could end up trapped under the film. Then open the package and place all the elements on a clean, flat surface.

Clean your smartphone screen using a cloth and glass cleaner. Carefully wipe the surface of the display and wait for it to dry completely. This action will remove even invisible dust particles. Try not to touch the iPhone screen directly anymore, so as not to create new stains and specks of dust. Wipes for initial cleaning of the phone are included with the protective glass.

Step 2. Unpacking the protective glass

The next step is to unpack the accessory and prepare it to stick on your phone. Take the screen and peel off the protective layer, which, once glued, will come into contact with the phone's display. After removing the protective layer, try not to touch the protective glass, otherwise fingerprints will remain on the product.

Step 3. Gluing

Turn the protective glass over to the side that was removed from the film. Place the accessory above the smartphone screen without touching it. Try to match everything as evenly and accurately as possible to avoid uneven gluing.

Further action must be done very quickly. Gradually apply the glass to the iPhone display in the direction from the top of the case to the bottom. Release the film so that the side sections stick to the phone themselves. By cleaning the display well, bubbles will not form.

Step 4. Smoothing the surface

Users do not always know how to stick glass on an iPhone. As a result, the result may not be ideal. To remove small bumps or trapped air, take a piece of microfiber (included with the glass) or a clean cloth and gently wipe the phone, moving from the center of the display to the sides, pressing lightly. In this way, flaws can be eliminated.

A film is also glued to the outside of the protective glass. Remove it immediately after all defects have been eliminated. Now turn on the device and check the responsiveness of the sensor. Normally, the additional screen should not affect the smartphone in any way.

Eliminating errors

If too many dust particles and dirt get under the protective glass during gluing, it will be inconvenient to use the smartphone. The sensor may respond less well to touches, and appearance such a phone will not be the best. Many users are wondering how to re-glue the glass on an iPhone and is it possible to do it at all? Yes, you can.

If the accessory does not stick properly the first time, carefully remove it from the display and set it aside on a clean surface. Thoroughly wipe the iPhone screen again and make sure there is no more dust or dirt on it. Only after cleaning the screen, stick the glass again. There is no need to peel off the accessory anymore.

How to remove glass from iPhone?

As a rule, users only need to remove the protective glass in one case - when it breaks during a fall or impact. It is very important to remove the accessory correctly so as not to damage the main display of the smartphone with fragments.

Take plastic card and use it to pry the edge of the protective glass. Then slide the card under the glass until it is completely removed. This method allows you to create some kind of barrier while waiting for the display and a damaged protective accessory.

When buying a new smartphone, you want to preserve the presentation of the gadget for as long as possible.

That is why it is common to buy protective glass or films along with the phone. With their help, the device screen can be protected from chips and scratches that form as soon as possible. We tell you how to properly apply protective film or glass at home.

Protective glass or film: what to choose?

When choosing a defense mechanism, every user asks the question - which is better? It is impossible to answer this question unequivocally, since each means of protection has pros and cons.

Protective glass provides reliability when the phone falls, but at the same time increases its thickness. The film is practically invisible during operation, and is also much cheaper, but the level of protection is lower. Despite the differences in certain parameters (degree of protection, price, durability), the principle of gluing these elements is the same.

Most protective accessories have brief instructions according to the sticker, but manufacturers are silent about some factors, so we will analyze each point on the shelves.

Preparing the place and accessories

Prepare your work area. Wipe the table where the sticker process will take place. Recommended to be placed above the phone table lamp to better see “problem areas” on the screen. Additionally, do not forget to wash your hands with soap and dry them.

The glass or film usually comes with tools. In most cases the kit looks like this:

1. The green “dry” bag is a dry cloth for cleaning the screen.
2. Pink “wet” bag – a wet wipe for cleaning the display.
3. A microfiber cloth that reduces the likelihood of picking up dust particles.

The first stage is cleaning the glass. Place your phone on the table. Pick up a napkin that says “wet” (sometimes it’s even numbered one). Wipe the smartphone screen with a damp cloth. Try to wipe the display so that not a single speck of dust is visible in the light.

The second stage is “drying”. Now take a second rag labeled “dry” (similar to the previous napkin, numbered two) and wipe the screen dry. Please note that your fingers should not touch the display.

The third stage is “intermediate”. Some manufacturers include an adhesive film in the kit to further rid the screen of dust particles. If you have such a tool, just stick it on the display and peel it off after a couple of seconds.

Working with glass

Pick up some protective film or glass. Look at her carefully. Manufacturers supply protective equipment with a special tongue to make it easier for a person to peel off the “sticky” part.

Having carefully peeled off the “adhesive part”, take the special glass by the “edges” and begin to slowly apply it to the phone. It is extremely important to ensure that the contours of the film and the screen match. While “aiming”, do not press on the display.

Release the glass. While it gradually sticks, make sure that there are no dust particles or bubbles anywhere. If no problems are found, effortlessly (lightly) swipe your finger across the center of the screen. If you notice any air bubbles, take a dry cloth and push them towards the edges of the display.

Once you are sure that there are no dust or air bubbles left under the glass, wipe the display again with a dry cloth.

Dust particles as a separate problem

There is a possibility of noticing a speck of dust after the procedure is completed. In such cases, you will need to re-raise the glass. This operation can be performed using bank card. Additionally, take a small strip of stationery tape.

1. Pick up the edge of the glass that is closest to the speck of dust.
2. Place a piece of tape on the problem area
3. Quickly tear it away from the screen.
4. Return the protective glass to its original position.
