Perhaps, I haven’t shared this with you yet, but I’d go ahead to tell you some of my fears.
While I was still an amateur in the tech and gadget world, each time my boss gave me a device to test-run so I could write a review, I became jittery (sweaty palms and cold feet, lol).
Reason is that most of these devices for test-run are quite expensive – talk of Samsung and Apple products. So, you can imagine my fears.
For so long, I nursed the ‘what ifs’ feelings. “What if the phone accidentally drops? What if it got scratched? What if the screen brushes against metal or hard surface? A handful of ‘what ifs’ inside my head.”
At some point, I felt like I quitting the job but my passion for gadgets ran way deeper than I could ever fathom so, I kept up with it but with extra caution on my part and it’s been bliss ever after.

So, when I think about the durability of devices and how to extend their lifespan, using a screen protector comes readily to mind because you can never go wrong with purchasing screen protectors. It’s never a waste of money as anyone would think.
If for anything, Samsung mobile is known for its peculiarity – the screen!
Whatever goes wrong with the Samsung screen then you can bet that device is as good as abandoned because it costs almost half the price of purchasing a Samsung device to repair the screen (if anything happens).
Some time ago, I got to test-run the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE and to be frank, it’s a unique device. The design is top-notch and if you own one, you should do everything within your capacity to protect the device, the screen, especially.
Hence, I wrote this article to guide you through how to choose the best screen protector for your Samsung Galaxy S21 FE.
So, would you rather read an article of less than a thousand words that teaches you how you can prevent such sad occurrences from happening to your device, or would you go ahead to watch it happen before you salvage the situation? The ball is in your court, play wisely!
Before I delve into the crux of this article, I’ll like that you know the major factors to consider when choosing or purchasing a screen protector for your S21 FE devices. These factors and selection techniques are explained in the subsequent subheadings below;
Factors and selection techniques to consider when choosing a screen protector for Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

Consider Maximum protection for your Samsung Galaxy S21FE
Your gleaming new flagship becomes a low-profile paperweight if you break, crack, scratch, shatter, or otherwise damage the screen. Two things help you avoid this: a great, protective case and a strong screen protector. There are plenty of good options for the Galaxy S21 FE to help safeguard your device.
Brand like OtterBox is quite popular and deals in the manufacture of screen protectors. The ClearPrint coating on the InvisibleShield Glass Elite helps fingerprints vanish and keeps your glass clean, which is a tough order these days as we spend more and more time on our phones. Installation is also easier than ever before.

Types of screen protector
Tempered glass and plastic films are the two most common forms of screen protectors. We used to have only plastic films to pick from, but now tempered glass screen protectors are available and popular. Why? This is because of their ability to absorb impact.
Remember a few kinetic lessons from high school: When your phone hits the ground face-first, the kinetic energy created by the drop is delivered into the earth via the phone’s surface that makes contact.
Screens break because of the kinetic energy combined with the ripples and flexes created by the force of the fall, and PET films are too thin to absorb that force.
Screen protectors made of tempered glass, on the other hand, have more mass and are frequently the same hardness as the screen.
As a result, when the phone is dropped, the kinetic force shatters the tempered glass screen protector, but the original glass underneath remains intact and functional. To save the crucial glass and sensor underneath, you compromised the removable glass.
As a sequel to the above, here are three recommended screen protectors you can choose from;
