I bet that many of you use a screen protector on your iPhone, because you may not know that there are 3 types; the plastic ones, the glass ones and the liquids.
The plastic screen protectors They are extremely cheap, but in return they only protect the screen from scratches, and at the same time reduce the user experience by leaving a poor quality touch to the screen or even a view full of bubbles (and sometimes some cause the screen to lose brightness or quality at a glance).
Then there are the glass ones, there are cheap (€ 10) or more expensive (up to € 25 can be worth) and provide very good protection against scratches and even against blows when receiving direct impact, they are generally 0 mm thick, with which they tend to go unnoticed and even improve the touch of the terminal, making the hardness of this new layer noticeable and giving more confidence to the user (knowing that their iPhone is not going to scratch). They do not leave bubbles and generally do not detract from the quality of the screen.
I only see one drawback, if you are going to use them on the iPhone 6 or 6+, Try to look for one with curvature at the ends (they usually put 2'5D in the name), because if you are not going to completely break with the experience that the iPhone 6 curved screen provides, leaving a step below and also looks ugly to With the naked eye, not to mention that it does not protect from lateral blows (always speaking if it does not have curvature).
I only recommend them if you do not mind sacrificing a little thinness of your device since it will be very noticeable in the Home Button or TouchID when you see it deeper, I recommend the Nillkin brand from my own experience.
And finally we have a somewhat unknown type of protector, it is a protector in liquid format, in this case I'm talking about impervious, a protector whose main characteristic is its properties Super Hydrophobic (repels water) thanks to some molecules 1000 times smaller than human hair, something that can save us from certain situations depending on the type of application we use (exterior only or exterior and interior).
In his exterior application (you do not lose the guarantee), Impervious protects from water blows or rain to give an example, without going any further, I bought it myself and (call me reckless or id *** a) I have tried it by leaving the iPhone under the tap and even recording a video The result is that it comes out as it has entered, dry and working (it is not recommended to do so since the treatment is not for intensive use but as a preventive measure); And not only that, but by having silicon in its composition, it creates a protective film that is harder (scratch resistant) than glass (at least than the one worn by the iPhone itself), which protects it from scratches. , and this I can also affirm since I am one of those who defend that the new iPhone 6 scratches more easily even with good use (without putting it upside down or with some other object in the pocket), since I have experienced it, but It was to put this spray on it and I have not seen even the tiniest scratch, allowing me to enjoy my iPhone naked. In addition, it effectively protects the lightning port (which is scratched or discolored after connecting and disconnecting the cable many times).
In his total application (you lose the warranty because you have to open the iPhone), Impervious is listed as IPX7, or what is the same, submersible up to 1 meter for half an hour, in addition to the scratch resistance that the exterior application provides.
Both treatments are semi-permanent, do not require reapplication to be effective and last up to 3 years on device.
And you will wonder, what for?Have you ever dropped the phone in the sink, or in the bathroom (the latter more common)? I once dropped an iPod Touch 5G, and thanks to the rice I was able to save it, but I would have been grateful at that time for having applied it impervious.
Impervious was born as a project on Kickstarter, where it managed to raise almost $ 55.000 of its goal of $ 7.500, with more than 1.000 backers behind it, sufficient proof of the need for people to protect their device, and at the same time enjoy the advantage that said protection is TOTALLY invisible.

The treatment you can buy it on the official website for $ 29'95 if you choose the exterior application or $ 39'95 if you opt for the full application. It remains to be said that Impervious can also be used on tablets (such as the iPad) or Android smartphones (these and tablets only have an external application).
To make your application as simple as possible impervious It has made videos of the exterior, exterior and interior application with the steps to follow in both cases, and even if you choose the exterior and interior application, the necessary tools to disassemble the phone and reassemble it will be included in the package.
If you want some test more of its operation you just have to watch this video.
Hello, it is very interesting, but I am left wondering if it shows that it has the liquid and if it can be withdrawn in any way.
Once applied, the liquid is completely invisible, what's more, it leaves the iPhone a touch of higher quality, it gives the feeling that it is harder, the other advantage is that the Lightning port (which scratches a lot after inserting and removing the cable over time) is immune to that problem, and the screen I have verified that with normal use it does not scratch, unlike the naked iPhone, many of you will know that the 6 scratches very easily 😀 Thank you for your interest!
super interesting the liquid protector! Same question as Pedro…. = D
You have your answer above: 3
It may protect from liquids, but to what extent does it protect from scratches? I do not see him in this last aspect too strong to replace it with a tempered glass.
To protect from scratches, one made of tempered glass is better, Impervious provides the hardness of silicon that is enough so that it does not scratch with daily use, but it does not protect the same as a glass against falls, for example 😀
Hello!! Some tempered glass screen protector that covers the entire iPhone 6 screen
Hello, very good post. I have a question, can't I give my iPhone 6 Plus a tempered glass protector and at the same time the impervious one?
Good, very good post, I want to buy it but on the web the IPHONE 6 PLUS EXTERIOR AEROSOL KIT and the IPHONE 6 PLUS IPX-7 WATERPROOFING KIT are both the same product ??. I am not very clear, if I buy the IPX-7 WATERPROOFING I can also put it abroad or do I have to buy the 2 ??. Everything is fine but on its website it does not make it clear at all and see that I have read the entire FAQ.
If you want to cover it completely, it is enough with IPHONE 6 PLUS IPX-7 WATERPROOFING KIT, you do not need both, the other is only the external treatment.
