A glass screen protector can not be compared to a normal screen protector. Where a normal screen protector consists of a plastic plaque, a glass screen protector is a hardened piece of glass. As a result, the forces exerted on your mobile, for example by a fall, are absorbed by the screen protector. This will not burst the screen of your mobile, but the glass screen protector.
Then you can just pull the glass screen protector off your screen again and then put a new one on it. The advantage of this is that you do not have to put a new screen on your phone if you drop it, just a new glass screen protector is sufficient. Simple, fast and cheap.
