The screen is one of the most fragile and expensive parts of a smartphone to repair. A simple drop can result in deep scratches or even a complete display replacement. Therefore, investing in tempered glass for your phone is a smart decision to extend the lifespan of your device. In this guide, we show you how to choose the ideal tempered glass, the types available, and the points to consider before purchasing.
What is tempered glass?
Tempered glass is a protective film made from heat-treated glass to increase its durability. Unlike traditional plastic films, it offers greater protection against impacts, scratches, and even finger grease.
Main advantages of tempered glass
- Effective protection against falls and impacts.
- Prevents scratches from keys, coins or daily use.
- Greater clarity compared to plastic films.
- Smooth and fluid touch, similar to the original screen.
- Simple and quick installation.
Types of tempered glass available
2.5D tempered glass
It has rounded edges for greater comfort and a perfect fit on the screen. It's the most common and affordable option.
3D/5D tempered glass
Covers not only the front of the screen but also the curved edges. Ideal for smartphones with edge-to-edge displays.
Tempered glass with privacy
Includes a layer that restricts the viewing angle, protecting your privacy in public places.
Anti-blue light tempered glass
Reduces exposure to blue light emitted by the screen, helping to reduce eye fatigue during prolonged use.

- Compatibility: confirm that the indicated model is exactly the same as your smartphone.
