If you're prone to dropping your smartphone or tablet, you know how costly it can be to replace these devices. Now, a new solution has been developed to give you the protection you've always needed, and it's called LiquidNano.
The invisible liquid glass protector works just like you would expect — it protects your device against everything from water to scratches for up to five years. It can be used on items such as smartphones, smartwatches, glasses and tablets. This means that, if you're one of the many people who breaks these pricy devices due to all-too-common accidents, you can now rest easily at night.
LiquidNano bonds to the glass of devices at a molecular level. It creates a film that's 1/500th of the width of a human hair, meaning it's tough to notice once it's applied. Its creators claim that it's virtually invisible to sight and touch. While it provides an ample amount of protection, it doesn't take away from the quality of the display.
In terms of application, LiquidNano is a bit like your traditional screen protector. First, you're given a cleaning wipe to eliminate all fingerprints and dirt from your device. Once it's completely clean, you can apply LiquidNano to the glass, including the camera lens. It takes about three minutes to completely dry and create the molecular bond.
After LiquidNano is fully applied, you can buff out any haze on the surface of the glass with a microfiber cloth. It takes a full 24 hours for the molecular bond to cure, so you'll need to avoid drops, cracks and scratches up to this point.
However, you're ready to go after 24 hours. The developers of LiquidNano claim that you can toss, scratch and forcefully drop the phone without causing complete damage to your screen — and they have the demonstration videos on their Kickstarter page to prove it.
As of April 26, LiquidNano has already surpassed its fundraising goal of $25,000, with a total of $30,755 from interested donors. This means that there are a whole bunch of people out there who want a solution that goes beyond the traditional screen protector, and can you blame them?
