i accidentally scratched the screen on my beloved nexus 6 a couple of weeks ago and due to my OCD and LLI. its been bugging the crap out of me ever since. ive got some options that i can try.

 

1. put a glass screen protector and a case to protect it and hope i cant see the scratch and that no more will occur.

 

2. RMA the phone because it used to keep randomly turning off (fixed since 5.1.1) also a speaker bug

 

4. take to O2 (service provider in UK) for a rma and hope they wont charge me for the repair. replacement

 

5. spend 100 pounds on a new screen

 

what should i do should i live with it and protect the phone to stop other damage or risk asking for a replacement.

 

 

bare in mind to any normal person its just a small scratch (around 3/4 inch) 

 

 

Please feel free to share other suggestions !

I think the Phantom Glass screen protectors are known for filling in scratches like that. I would pick up one of those and you should be good.
