So I bought a really cheap one from eBay for £1.39.. works a treat for my LG G3. However, from reading online, people are saying it's best to get a more expensive one like a PThink?

Surely they're all the same, or is this a genuine product difference?

Thanks

Differences can be things like thickness, accuracy of cut outs, oleophobic coating, lack of rounding on the edges.

If you are happy with yours then great. I have no issues in spending a few quid on something I will be touching for hours each day. But any glass protector will be better than a plastic foil or those horrible wet application type.

A really good way of protecting my Z10 screen, the only problem is now it won't turn off when put face down but I think it's a small price to pay,

The thing is, I heard the cheap ones are not really glass.

Not sure whether to invest a bit more on one. The one I have now doesn't cover the whole screen, it has cut outs for the speaker.

They are plastic, designed to fit over the glass screen of your phone
