    Which screen guard should I use? difference between the Glass protector and Plastic protector

    We all love our phones a lot and want them to be in best of the shapes every time. The screen of the phone is the most used feature if you are using the current generation smartphones with touch screens. I like to protect the screen from scratches and hence use the screen protectors on it. There are many kind of screen protectors available in the market like the Clear screen, matte finish, plastic or tempered glass. So which should you buy and what's the difference between them. In this thread I will try to answer this question. 

    What is the difference between the Glass protector and Plastic protector? 

    Find below the difference betweent the two. 

    Plastic
    Tempered Glass
    Price
    This  would range from anywere between Rs 90 to Rs 500 max.
    This  would start from around Rs 270 to Rs 2000 max
    Toughness
    Very  thin and does not provide great protection to the screen and is useful only  for preventing scratches to the main screen
    This  is toughned glass and is sturdier to use. It would be around .3mm in  thickness. Can withstand greater amount of pressure.
    Feel
    Generally  after few weeks of installation the feel of the screen guard starts to  deteriorate and you will feel that the original screen glass was much better
    It  gives the same kind of feeling as that of the original screen as its also  glass.
    Installation
    This  is very hard to install and if done incorrectly you will have to buy another  screen protectors as they are not reusable.
    Tempered  glass is very easy to install and if installed incorrectly, you can always  remove it and reinstall.
    Life
    Max  life of the screen protector is 6 months but the effects of the screen guard  starts to detorirate right from 2 months onwards. Also it will start to loos  that perfect visibility that the original screen would have.
    Life  of tempered glass is around 12 to 18 months. They are hard to scratch and the  visibility will not reduce for long.


    Should I use screen protectors ?

    Frankly people will argue that nowadays phones have Gorilla glass or any such type of scratch proof glass then why do we need screen protectors. I would say Yes, you need one. 
    Orginal screen can still get scratch with keys or sand and to replace a screen will cost a bomb as compared to the screen protectors. Just of e.g My redmi 1s screen broke and the repair cost of the screen is Rs 4000 where as the cost of a tempered glass solution for Redmi 1s is only Rs 300. Also sometimes the phones do fall from our hand and the screen gets damaged (my Redmi 1s is an example) and this can be reduced if you have a tempered glass on the screen as then the tempered glass would take most of the force of the hit from the fall and prevent the screen on your smartphone to break. Hence I would say better safe than be sorry later. 

    Which screen guard should I use? 

    I don't suggest using cheaper screen guards or the plastic one too. I would rather use the Tempered glass screen protector as I have seen its benefits - Mi3 and Redmi 1s both fall from my hand. Redmi 1s has plastic screen guard and Mi 3 has tempered glass. Both fall face first on the road and Redmi 1s screen is shattered but not even a single scratch on my Mi 3 screen. I am happy that I had tempered glass on my phone's screen that day and also sad that I did not use tempered glass on Redmi 1s. There are lot of good branded Tempered glass solutions for most of the smart phones in the market today and only buy them. My fav are spigen and Nillkin tempered glass. 

    Despite problems, Xiaomi expanding Indian Operation Aggressively

    The recent trouble over security issues aside, the company is stepping up its plans for India, including diversifying into new products and boosting R&D

    Xiaomi of China emerged as the third largest maker ofsmartphones after Samsung and Apple in the quarter ended September 30, according to International Data Corporation. It reported 211 per cent growth in sales for the quarter in 2014, even as Samsung reported a drop of 8.2 per cent and Apple an increase of only 16 per cent. The final battle for supremacy will be fought in India, the world's second-largest market after China, which Xiaomi entered in July through a tie-up with online retailer Flipkart. By the end of October, it had sold over half a million smartphones in flash sales that got over in a few seconds. That might still be small - smartphone and feature phone sales were 72 million in the July-September 2014 quarter, according to IDC - but none of Xiaomi's rivals is taking it lightly.

    What could stop Xiaomi's march forward is something else. In October, the Indian Air Forces asked its personnel and their families not to buy Xiaomi smartphones because of security concerns. Within a few days, Xiaomi announced that it would set up a data centre in India in 2015 to store local user data. But its troubles seem to continue. In the second week of December, the Delhi High Court restrained Xiaomi from selling handsets that run on technology patented by Ericsson of Sweden in the country. Within days, in an open letter to Indian consumers, Hugo Barra, Xiaomi's global vice-president, said: "We have been forced to suspend sales until further notice due to an order passed by the Delhi High Court. As a law-abiding company, we are investigating the matter carefully and assessing our legal options."

    Xiaomi explained its position to the Delhi High Court last week. It said it has a direct contract with chip-maker Qualcomm for some of the technologies that it uses in its devices, and there could have been cross-licensing arrangements that patent holders have among each other. Following this, the Delhi High Court, in an interim order, allowed Xiaomi to sell those smartphones in India built on Qualcomm chipsets. However, the company will have to deposit Rs 100 for every handset sold towards royalty as part of a temporary measure. The Delhi High Court will hear the case again on February 5. "Xiaomi will have to settle with Ericsson on this matter and find an amicable solution. This also means Xiaomi will have to slightly tweak its cost structure and arrangement with suppliers to neutralise the extra intellectual property costs," says Neil Shah, research director (devices & ecosystems), CounterPoint Research.

    India is the second most important market for the Chinese company, says Xiaomi India Country Manager Manu Jain. For Xiaomi, 2015 is set to be the year of expansion in India. "We'll bring almost all the smartphone models that we sell in China. Not just smartphones, we will expand our portfolio here as much as possible. Till now, we have just scratched the tip of the iceberg here," adds Jain. Besides expanding its smartphone portfolio in India, Jain says Xiaomi will bring its high-end smart televisions in India and look at new product segments like air purifiers. "We are also working on reducing the lead time," he adds. At present, the company brings devices in India about two months after it launches them in China.

    Going local
    To reduce the India launch time, Xiaomi has been setting up its research and development centre in Bengaluru, spread across 20,000 square feet. From just about two people at present, the facility will be ramped up to full capacity in a years' time. The R&D unit will work on developing India-specific content, features and themes. "We could see Xiaomi invest more in localised content, language support or local manufacturing to position itself as a very 'Indianised' brand," says Shah.

    After the success of its smartphones, it is reasonable to assume that the price tags of its other products will also be low. Aggressive pricing requires costs to be put on a tight leash. That's why Xiaomi has a very lean structure in India. There's just one person who takes care of Xiaomi's market development here. All told, there are 12 people on the company's payrolls, along with six interns. It has a call centre, managed by third party, in Indore where about 35 people work. There are four or five people at each of its five service centres - again on contract. The numbers, obviously, will grow in 2015, but the structure won't change.

    It also plans to increase focus on after-sale services. Xiaomi has just five service centres across India at present. "In a market like India, service is the key. We will open about 100 exclusive service centres across India by the end of 2015. These service centres will also be experience zones for Xiaomi in India," Jain says. There's more. Xiaomi will have its own e-commerce portal to sell its products in India in 2015. "Our partnership with Flipkart will continue as well," adds Jain.


    ERICSSON'S PATENT RUN-INS
    Xiaomi may have been the latest company to be hit by a patent infringement case, but it appears Ericsson’s run-ins with technology companies in India is an old problem.

    Ericsson Telefonaktibolaget, which owns about 33,000 standard-essential patents for mobile communications, moved the Delhi High Court claiming that Xiaomi had not been paying the patent holder to get a licence for using its technology. The Chinese smartphone giant has quickly reacted stating that the technology used for its devices is provided by Qualcomm with which it has a direct contract to share technology. The case is pending, and unlikely to be resolved soon.

    However, this is not the first time that Ericsson has cracked the whip on companies selling mobile phones in India. Last year, it was home-grown Micromax that was dragged to court for not paying royalties to the Swedish patent holder. Micromax,  India's second-largest handset maker, had to reluctantly agree to pay for licences under a FRAND (Fair, Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory) agreement.

    Earlier this year, Ericsson took Intex Technologies, another home-grown handset maker, to court for patent infringement. This list does not end here. Ericsson has also dragged Chinese company Gionee to a court in India for similar reasons. The world’s largest smartphone maker, Samsung Electronics, is also facing legal heat from Ericsson in a US court for alleged violations of its mobile patents.

    Besides Ericsson, Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE have strong patent portfolios. As of end-June, Huawei had filed 65,000 patents. Its mobile devices division had filed 12,000 invention-related patents, besides 1,000 design patents, worldwide as of August. ZTE has more than 13,000 patents as well.

    On one hand, Xiaomi is looking at growing organically. On the other, the Chinese company is eyeing Indian start-ups for inorganic growth. As Barra said last month, Xiaomi will invest in start-ups in India and is scouting for opportunities in Bengaluru and Delhi as it looks to add new features and services to its products. "These engagements and investments will help us build the ecosystem of innovation. We will invest in start-ups in the areas of mobile content, not just for the Indian market but also for the global market," says Jain.

    Xiaomi's operations in India are slightly different from other companies. Flipkart, as its exclusive partner, buys devices from Xiaomi in China and sells them in India. Xiaomi Technologies India, a subsidiary of the Chinese company, offers support to Flipkart but does not engage in sales activities. "If we need to have an Indian entity in the future, we'll register one. For now, we'll continue with the existing model," Jain says. He believes that Xiaomi will fuel the growth of smartphones in India - a market that is still dominated by feature phones with 72 per cent of the pie. "In three years, 90 per cent of India's handset market will be smartphones. And, we'll drive the growth," adds Jain, with confidence.
