“Scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7” - source

Gold being a “standard” as in high quality, go with spigen ez it’s pretty good, end to end, smooth, 9h hardness, oiliophobic coating, doesn’t fuck up the colors on screen, costs about 2000 rupees here in india, maybe like 25 dollars in the US, idk, not to mention the pack has 2 of them, so you can either keep one for later of split with a friend.

I prefer a spigen screen protector my iphone 12 (3 years old ) has zero scratches, plus a gold quality screen protector if not betters the screen’s feel, atleast keeps it good.
