  1. Are you a thin TPU film protector with a thicc case. The films are usually very cheap but can require skills to apply. Usually the shops charge you a lot of money just for the labor cost. The thicc case is.. well thicc, e.g. Otterbox.

  2. Or are you a tempered glass / thin case? Tempered glass are expensive up front but they are so easy to install these days. Most came with a tray to help.

  3. Or even tempered glass / thick case for that maximum thiccness?

Or just any protector and naked?

I ask because i've been having problems finding a perfect screen for my pixel 9 pro. I want privacy and matte but those only come in TPU. There does exist a tempered glass privacy matte version but that causes problem with the fingerprint sensor.

Generally, I go with a fairly robust case. Supcase makes my favorite ones, with poetic being runner-up that's essentially the same basic idea. I tend to favor the ones with a built in paid plastic protector though. Since the cases have a solid lip on them, it saves me having to fuck with application. Arthritis is a bitch
