Nothing.

I have a tempered glass screen protector on my pixel 10. I have it wrapped in a dbrand ninja turtle skin. I haven't used a phone case in at least 8 years.
I have the cheap ass see through case which I bought for 5 bucks abt 4 years ago and which has turned almost completely yellow now. I have no screen protector as my screen is small and hasnβt cracked despite a few attempts.
Spigen tempered glass + Spigen case is the way to go. expensive but completely worth it.
Full on condom for my phone.
For my S4 I had glass, for my S8, 1+ and Pixel I had a matte screen tpu protector. Now my newest pixel has glass again.
Case: Always.
And every phone and tablet I owned from my one plus onwards, I had a vinyl skin on the body.
The phone came out basically mint when I was replacing it.
My P10 Pro has a regular glass protector, vinyl skin on the back/sides and a hard plastic case.
I thought about a privacy glass but ultimately didnt care enough for it.
I use smartish grip cases for out and about. I like the texture on the edges.
If Iβm not going any place I have a jetech slim case with similar (but not as much) texture. Itβs really thin so I like it.
Oh screen protector I use inexpensive tempered glass. Never needed a $25 screen protector.
I hate the glass screen protectors. Naked screen. Single layer medium plasticy case with the mag circle on the back because my last car had the magnetic attachment thing.
Dbrand leather skin on the back to give me grip, then one of those ohsnap things superglued to the skin. It's handy and offsets the camera bump, making it sit nicely. Thin glass protector on the front.
Generally, I go with a fairly robust case. Supcase makes my favorite ones, with poetic being runner-up that's essentially the same basic idea. I tend to favor the ones with a built in paid plastic protector though. Since the cases have a solid lip on them, it saves me having to fuck with application. Arthritis is a bitch
Case but no screen protector. Screens got very good and barely scratch anymore. And after all, my phone is a tool and will be used till it it runs out of security patches. I don't care. The case I mainly got because the phone is slippery without.
i put on a carbonfiber case(which is a super slim material, feels pretty smooth), but love the feel of no case so at home i prefer no case. tempered glass screen but its crooked, really tough application without a helper :x pixel9proxl hope you find smth that works for you!
Tempered glass and thick case. Specifically one of those cases with interlocking front and back pieces. Makes it look and feel like it was always an integral part of the phone. In fact it is now, after I took out the glue to replace the battery and couldn't be bothered to put glue back.
Tore out the plastic sheet included with it and stuck a glass protector in its place. Glass doesn't have to be expensive, I got mine in a 2-pack for just $6. Maybe the more expensive ones have some oleophobic, anti-glare, or anti-scratch, but mine's held up nicely for over 3 years.
I don't mind the extra heft at all and would probably have perpetual anxiety if I had to use a phone without a case.
I got a Spigen thrown in for free when I bought my Samsung s9 plus at Costco years ago. I was very cynical about it at first because I was just a screen protector user prior.
Well that bitch saved my phone from countless - and I just cannot even think of the number - of boo boo's I had
I now have a Spigen for my newer phones, I am a Spigen customer for life. These things are legit. They somehow protect the front as well and I don't know how.
No screen protector but I did have a fairly solid caseology case for my Pixel.
Fairly thin magnetized case and thin screen protector on S26 Ultra. The built-in privacy filter means I don't need anything beefier for a screen protector. Also have an OhSnap on the back for holding, which also helps even out the camera bump(s)
