So im not sure how, but I ended up scratching my iphone screen. The scratches aren't that big, just very noticeable and annoying. Any nser's have any suggestions besides replacing the screen on how to get rid of the scratches? +k for helpful suggestions!
 
Not sure but maybe they make some type of filler you can put in the scratches, like in those sunglasses commercials. Make sure you use a screen protector next time.
 
I have scratches on my screen. I'm used to them now though but they fucking suck
 
Can you put some type of epoxy or something in there to fill it or will that fuck with the touch capabilities?

Worst case throw it off a bridge and buy a new one.
 
If nothing else works, put a screen protector, they wont look as big and you wont feel them as much
 
build a time machine, go back to before you scratched it, then go to your local mall cell phone case kiosk and buy one of those glare/scratch protector screens. theyre like $10 definitely worth it
 
If this doesnt work I dont know what will
SU27
 
it will buff out, you just need an electric sander with some high grit sandpaper (anything above 270 will work). its not rocket science from here, just sand that screen down till the scratch disappears. i did it to my iphone last week after i scratched it and it came out smoother than it was new
 
My friend changed his screen himself. You can buy a new screen online for a couple bucks, not sure how he did it...but you all should be able to, he doesnt have any special skills or experience.

 
Go to your local auto shop and get windshield chip repair. Its an epoxy and it will fill in the scratch, should at least make it a little better.
 
my old phone case had griptape on the back of it so it wouldnt slide out of my pocket. so i but the case in my pocket without it on my phone and the grip just shredded my screen. my screen has texture now. deal with it OP. plus the camera is so scratched i can only take selfies now
 
every iphone i have has gotten fucked up one way or another... scratched, cracked, broken, etc. you just have to get used to it
 
because screen covers look like shit. IMO there is no point in putting that or a big bulky case on and ruining the sleek and sexy feel of an iphone. If youre a person who cant take care of your shit, go for it

Ive had a naked iphone since day one and going on 2 years now. Its survived many drunken nights, in my pocket skiing, etc etc. Sure it has some scratches on it but its so worth it not to put a cumbersome otterbox or a screen protector that ruins the vividness of the retina display (or any display for that matter. Im not actually even a big fan of the iphone)
 
This pretty much sums it up, And btw i wasnt bitching about it everyone, I was just asking a friendly question if you guys had any ideas. Thanks for everyone's help.
