how much was it? it includes a UV lamp? so I'm guessing like 50 or more USD? ....the LK TPU protectors are great. haven't used a screen protector since forever but wow they feel great. I just really suck putting them on. apparently I'm made of dust.
Accessories Screen protector with Gorilla Glass Victus glass

No this kit was only 20 bucks! It came with 3 tempered glass protectors, 4 glue bottles, 3 cleaning kits, tape to cover buttons and speakers, and leveling pads. I really hate those soft plastic protectors so I searched until I found the only UV glue glass kit, and it took two weeks to ship. Unfortunately now it's unavailable.
Good point about 9H protectors shattering instead of your phone. What's strange though is that these cheap protectors don't get scratched that much even though you don't pay attention to keys or coins...so why do the advanced Gorilla glasses get scratched so easily!
Brass keys and coins aren't hard enough to scratch glass. Sand is and spring steel ie key ring. Any micro grit your fingers rub against the display.
Sure, I was just pointing out that in my case at least cheap 9H screen protectors rarely/never get scratched unlike the Gorilla screens, they do get broken though!
Glass is anywhere from 5.5 to 7 Mohs hardness.
Hardness isn't the same as impact resistance though. The main goal with Victus is increased resistance to breakage and reduced fatiguing from multiple drops. Victus and tempered glass are around 7 Mohs.
If your tempered glass shatters in a multi impact drop you may end up with no protection. With plastic it's still there and can't scratch glass.

And that's just... completely untrue. I'm using a TPU based protector, fingerprint works 100%, every damn time. When the UV based protectors come out, they'll work 100%, every time. Optical protectors are a LOT easier to use with screen protectors.5
I wish it was this easy in desert climates. Even with shaking out my pockets regularly, a stray piece of sand always manages to find its way to my screens within the first couple months.
FWIW I had the S21 Ultra before this (also using Victus) and it managed to get scratched. Nothing deep, but it was noticeable in sunlight. I'm planning on keeping the Pixel for a good while, so I actually picked up a TPU screen protector for it.3
To my knowledge optical sapphire has only been used for camera lense protection. Optically it's not as clear as glass, it has a slight tint. I still wouldn't buy an Apple...
While sand is the most common abrasive floating around it's not the only. Gravel can range up to RH 8 so a screen protector can save it from marring in a glancing slide or a low impact drop.
Face plants into gravel are always a thrill...2
Every time I've tried that, the screen gets scratched. All the way up to iPhone 12 pro max.
