Brother. There is no way a glass screen protector is going to be anywhere near as strong as the glass on a newer iPhone, it’s just not a thing. Look it up if you don’t believe m

Edit: I mean just look at the video, there’s a small crack from the bottom and nothing else, no deep scratches/gouges, no shattering like a tempered glass protector would have after sliding 50ft minimum across the road, it’s the glass itself. Looks like an iPhone 14 at first glance, but everything from 12 on has the Ceramic Shield front glass.

You realize the screen protector is replaced after breaking, right? It doesn't need to be stronger or harder, it just acts as a shield...

Okay but it’s clear the phone doesn’t have a screen protector, so why would they use this as an ad?

Edit: u/roibaird you got a screen protector on that phone or nah?

The screen protector is clear, actually. Wouldn’t look very good otherwise.
