They are supposed to upload a video of them removing the screen protector to see what happens and if the Sony logo comes off.

If anything, I might just grab a regular 5 inch screen protector and stick it on top of the actual screen protector and replace it if it ever gets scratched.

How to remove your Sony Xperia Z1 screen protector (i probably wouldn't do it): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pzxq-90NUIY
thoughts:
1. sony should either engrave its front logo on the the phone material and not on the film which looks cheap, or not print a front logo at all. (on a side note, some people don't like companies logos in the front so it could be a good thing for them).
2. iphone 4/4s is also covered in front and back glass and apple don't stick a film to it, how come? is the z1 without the film more sensitive to shattering then the iphone 4/4s?

Well that explains that, the logo is printed on the protector again.

After having just played around with a Z1 in store I want one! The display was very very nice indeed.

IMO, iphone or other phones especially the one with gorilla glass has tendency to break easily compared to Sony's phone (with shatterproof plastic). I think if you drop Xperia and other gorilla glass smartphones, chances are high for the others to break. I've dropped smartphone (not xperia) with gorilla glass once and it shattered (very costly to replace). With xperia, I've dropped it several times but the glass still intact. I think this is due to the shatterproof.

@ascariss,
true.

Gorilla/Dragontail glasses are meant to be scratch resistant not shutter-proof. So while you won't see those fine superficial lines (scratches) from your keys and other stuff, they will brake like glass if dropped.

My 808 sustained several drops but finally died (Gorilla cracked into many pieces, still holding together and no damage to LCD itself).

On the other side, I have changed my wife's Z screen protector twice as it easily gets scratched and looks ugly, but in case your device falls I guess it does provide some additional strength (like when you put darken foils on windows in car for example).

Which "method" is better? I guess it down to personal preferences, but I don't like protectors (fixed mine 808 for 200 EUR, never thought putting screen protector on).

And small side note: unlike some people mentioned here, I have not experienced any difference in gliding finger over Gorilla glass (808) vs XZ, sensation (if we can call it that way) is the same.

Cheers,
Miki

ok, but my question is different.
first of all the "shatter proof" or better announced "shatter resistance" is only when the film is on the Z1. second, i asked: "is a filmless Z1 more sensitive then a filmless iphone 4/4s?"
answer only someone who knows for sure.
