However, before embarking on the process itself, it is important to learn a little about the most protective films, their properties and types. Therefore, consider the most popular types. This way, you will be able to understand: what kind of film you need to glue it to your apple device.
Protective film for iPhone
So, most often today, users do not glue ordinary films, as a couple of years ago, but a special armored protection, which promises to ensure the safety of your gadget when falling from a few meters. Indeed, modern armor can save the iPhone screen, even if it falls on a tile or sidewalk. It will be much cheaper to buy a new film than a new screen for your favorite device. The cost of applying such protection is about five hundred rubles, while the price of the film itself is only about two hundred rubles. You can estimate the savings of self-gluing yourself.
Ordinary films are matte and glossy. The first differ in some surface roughness, thereby reducing the brightness of the image and its clarity. However, it does not leave fingerprints, as on glossy, which do not distort the image. But still there are some glossy ones that can slightly change the color scheme of the screen. Such cases are very rare, and the manufacturer often reports this. For example, there are mirror films that can replace your mirror in bright sunlight.
