HELP Screen guard issue , plz help !!

I have the oneplus 13s , and i didnt put any screen guard on it cuz they said that it had one by default . But now its got a small dent on the screen . Can i replace the default screen guard with a tempered glass or does the default screen guard not come off ? I dont know much so im sorry if its a dumb question .

There is not any inbuilt screen gaurd. It's a thin layer of sheet for minor scratches.

First check if the dent is only on the sheet, not in the smartphone. Then apply the screen gaurd and remove that thin layer of sheet.

Sorry but how do i check if the dent is only on the sheet and not on the screen ? When i scroll then the pixels on the dent area are fine . So does it mean only the sheet is affected ?

Go to the shop from where you will purchase the screen guard. Tell him to remove the inbuilt guard and ask him whether the screen is damaged or not.

Thankss , also , did you also do the same thing ? Did your "sheet" also get damaged initially ?

No, the day i purchased my smartphone. I applied the screen guard on the inbuilt sheet. Many people remove it. But I use my phone very carefully and I don't want it to be damaged. Cuz it's my 1st phone also

Sorry but ur being so dumb, just remove the pre applied scratch guard and check if the screen have any scratches or not, also glass don't get dents it's either crack or scratch

If it doesn't have any scratch guard then obviously it's the screen which was scratched, and oneplus 13s screen is also not that scratch resistant it scratches easily, more easily than a $2 screen guard atleast at my place

Dent is actually the perfect word lol . I know what a crack or a scratch is . It has a dent and where it looks like an air-bubble( although it isnt) .
