What else can I do to protect my phone? Protect your screen with Liquid Armour – a liquid product that provides scratch resistance for up to 1 year. Other screen protectors are hard to apply, you can never get rid of EVERY bubble, and some of them degrade the image quality. Liquid Armour is invisible, plus equivalent to 9H hardness – which by the way - is right below Diamonds at 10H! Plus, we’ll apply it for you in store. Buy a strong phone case to protect your frame. Backup your data often to the cloud, your computer, or an external hard drive.

My phone is still in contract. Should I come to Staples for my repair? If your phone is under contract, you should contact your warranty provider for repair as Staples is not an authorized repair center. Opening the device will void your warranty.
