Why so expensive? Well unlike regular screen protectors which appear to be made from a plastic film of sorts, the VITREO is actually made from a tempered sheet of glass, which means that when placed on your iPad, you will be touching glass instead of plastic. The glass itself has a rating of 9H which means it should be able to withstand scratches and drops. The drawback is that it measures 0.55mm which means that it won’t be as thin as your regular screen protector.
Screen protectors made from glass aren’t new – in fact another company by the name of Spigen has made screen protectors out of glass for the iPhone, but we guess if you wanted something for your iPad, then perhaps the VITREO might be worth taking a look at. Any takers?
