If I hadn't a "dumb" screen protector, my one x would have a very damaged screen. One fall is enough to ruin months and months of extreme care and precaution. To me, gorilla glass is very overrated. I also use a cover outside the house. A pouch is useless, if the phone falls without being in it. I need my One X pristine because I love it, eheh, and I might sell it in a few months. I know I loose the feel of the polycarbonate body, but so far it has worth it.
You must have a faulty device, (or I'm extremely lucky ) I dropped mine from a meter to asphalt face down, not a scratch on the screen.
