Every owner of an iPhone dreads the horrifying thought that nothing could save them from a crack in their screens; however, Buff Labs has created a shock-safe screen protector which redefines the way you keep your iPhone safe. While an iPhone is not typically used as a nutcracker, the Buff Labs Screen Protector video demonstrates that, with this product, your phone can do pretty much anything.
This is because the protectors are made up of four layer, with a 'Shock-Absorptive Cushioning Layer' placed on on top, which absorbs most of the shock, followed by a 'Shock-Dispersive Cushioning Layer' which helps spread the reminder of the shock to prevent cracks. A 'Stretch Resistant Layer' comes next to ensure that the shock safe screen protector stays effective; finally, an 'Air bubble–releasing / Repositionable Silicon Adhesive Layer' which makes small air bubbles disappear by themselves within 48 hours. The silicon layer at the bottom allows the screen protector to be easily moved and re-positioned.
