No,apparently not,its just Super LCD2.
However rather than just use a plastic film screen protector you can get tempered glass screen protectors for it thus greatly improving its protection.
Nillkin are one the known brands,search ebay and you will find.

I don't find screen scratching big issue. I'm more afraid about screen breaking under pressure or something similar. Screen protectors don't protect from that.

Yes but as I said,the Nillkin ones are tempered glass which I believe are shatterproof.
These are not the soft plastic types.

purchased a tempered glass protector, it broke, and the screen was intact.

Its the second time i broke a tempered glass, and save my phone's screen, so now, i dont have any doubt on its efficiency

Ebay.uk with shipping in france may help you, this is where i purchased mine

Thanks for you help. I found an equivalent from nikpin.
here : http://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B00KGT5YFQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1G2SMQ8I8YN3W

look like it's worth trying, even if I'm buying a case for the phone.

I know this is several months later, but I just wanna throw this out there.
Screens crack because they become weak around the points at which they scratch, so if there are no scratches on the screen, there are no weak points on the screen for it to break along. They just make sure that pressure gets uniformly distributed along the glass so that it has less chance to break. That is the main functions of screen protectors: eliminating weak points on the screen.

I guess it has to be a pretty deep scratch relative to screen thickness, to have any substantial effect.
