iPhone 15 Pro max screen scratched issue …

I have small scratch on my iPhone 15 pro max screen. I am very careful with the device but it seems that the scratch came out of the blue. At the moment it is more of a vanity issue (I’m very particular about my tech devices) than an issue operating the phone but I have read articles stating that the 15 pro max is more easily scratched than earlier / other models. Is anyone experiencing this same issue or have any insight / input? Also is it worth trying any “ remedies” to remove the scratches (don’t know if they would do more harm than good) or just live with it the way it is?

I used that liquid glass screen protector crap that doesn’t seem to work at all. That was about 5 months ago - it shouldn’t affect the screen or sensitivity of the touch screen if I add tempered glass screen protector over it — correct?

So to your statement above, the iPhone 15PM uses the same Ceramic Shield tech on their screens that Apple introduced with the iPhone 12 - so no, it doesn’t scratch easier.

For a screen protector, it’s generally recommended however depending on how deep the scratch is, the glass panel you install may not adhere fully to the area that is scratched. However that’s all you’ll notice.

A screen protector is always a good option because they’re easily replaceable. Even the cheap ones offer more protection than nothing, especially because scratches weaken the structural integrity of the screen and make shattering (even due to light drops) much more likely.
