I can say with my hand on my heart that the glass is definitely not anything like gorilla glass.
I have no scratches on my s2 since one year. No screen protector!
Only a slide bag. I work in the metal branch and have always splitters in my bag
And I don't like the screen protector- it's a bad feeling to slide over it... I hate it.

you can probably sand down the screen with very fine sandpaper to make it smooth again
if i change the glass of x8, will there be any chance that i will get a bad touch response?
I would definitely recommend one. I haven't used a screen protector, got a big scratch and really regret not having used one.
Buy one in the beginning and save being furious after the first big scratch
definitely use a screen protector! the x8 screen is hardly scratch resistent at all. just put it in a bag together with some keys and you will end up ruining your beautiful screen.
