Tempered glass or hydrogel film — what is the difference?

Tempered glass (9H hardness) protects against drops and scratches and feels like the real screen under your finger. Hydrogel film is thinner and flexible, sits properly on a curved screen and heals surface scratches by itself — but it does not absorb impact. For most phones we recommend tempered glass.

Does a screen protector make the display worse?

No. A good protector has over 99% light transmission and an oleophobic coating that repels fingerprints. Colours and brightness stay the same.

Will a protector interfere with the fingerprint reader?

Tempered glass can slow down an in-display reader slightly. Hydrogel film works better with that technology. Tip: re-register your fingerprints after fitting the protector.

How often should a screen protector be replaced?

Replace it as soon as you see cracks or deep scratches — a cracked protector no longer protects properly. A good one typically lasts 6–12 months.

HardGlass Max™ — the bestseller, improved

3mk's best-known tempered glass now comes in a version that solves the part everyone dreads: fitting it. A precise applicator is included in the box, so the glass lands exactly where it should — no crooked edges, no trapped bubbles, no second-guessing. A few seconds are all it takes to get a result that looks professionally applied, with nobody holding the other end.

9H hardness for everyday life

HardGlass Max™ is rated 9H, so the screen stays unmarked even when it shares a pocket with keys or coins. The glass absorbs impacts and stops scratches and cracks from taking hold. It covers the full screen, and the additionally reinforced edges guard the most vulnerable area against chipping and mechanical damage.

Barely there in daily use

Protection shouldn't change the way you use your device: FaceID and fingerprint readers work exactly as they did before. An oleophobic coating repels grease and fingerprints, so the surface stays clearer for longer and your finger glides across it with ease.
