• Thickness: 0.3mm–0.5mm, providing a smooth, glassy feel.
• Best for: Maximum protection.
  
  

2. Ceramic Film

• Material: A hybrid of glass and plastic.
• Durability: Flexible, strong against scratches, won’t shatter like glass.
• Thickness: Thinner than tempered glass, smooth but slightly softer.
• Best for: Flexibility and balanced protection.

3. Nano Film

• Material: Ultra-thin, flexible with nano-coating.
• Durability: Scratch-resistant but offers less impact protection.
• Thickness: Under 0.2mm, almost invisible.
• Best for: Lightweight, minimal protection.

In short, tempered glass offers the most protection, ceramic film balances durability and flexibility, while nano film is great for a thin, lightweight feel.
