Oh god, yeah. My original Galaxy S was dropped a few times and the plastic back cover and the battery flew apart. But the screen never got a scratch, just the plastic had a few small scratches.

But in general the new glass on phone screen sucks ass. My Galaxy S22 has small scratches from normal use, just being in my pocket. The OnePlus 5 I had before that? Not a single scratch.

They are making the glass softer now so it doesn't crack as easily, but at the same time it starts to scratch more. Instead of going with really hard glass that doesn't scratch and just telling customers to put a case on :-/

It feels like my S22 ultra's screen is made of LDPE it's so soft...

Yeah, took like a month or so till I realized I already had a very visible scratch on the display. Never dropped, just on the table (display up!) or in my jean pockets. Total insanity :-/

When you complain about it everyone just tells you to use a screen protector, but they all suck.

Yeah I wish there was a good screen protector for the ultra but I've only heard horror stories about the pen, fingerprint sensor and even camera failing : (
