Apple’s new generation iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro series will be officially launched in Taiwan on September 19. However, before the sale, the AR anti-reflective coating equipped with iPhone 17 was once again launched on the Internet. If the protective patch is attached, it will affect the effect. Even when the protective patch is torn off, the coating will be torn down together, which has caused many netizens to worry that the iPhone 17 screen coating is really not suitable for protective patches? Mr. Crazy also conducted research on the impact of the iPhone 17 film and the coating problem of the Apple screen itself, and took you to understand the reasons behind the actual impact and how to avoid it.
Apple’s original iPhone 17 series anti-reflective coating technology
The entire iPhone 17 series screens use 7-layer anti-reflection coating, mainly to reduce reflection under strong light and make the screen clearer. The AR anti-reflection coating (also known as AS anti-fouling layer) used on the iPhone 17 series screens does not cover the glass surface. It is different from the previous iPhone 16 series or old screen processing methods. This time, Apple directly fuses the AR coating into the inside of the iPhone 17 screen, and then covers the outer layer with an AF anti-fingerprint coating.
Compared with the iPhone 16 series or old iPhone models, most of them only use AF anti-fingerprint coating. So why does Apple want to wrap the anti-reflective coating of the iPhone 17 in the anti-fingerprint? The main reason is that users can touch the screen with their fingers in bare metal, and they can also feel very smooth.
The main reasons why iPhone 17 film will destroy the original screen AR coating
Regarding netizens and media’s crazy posting of sensational titles such as iPhone 17 not being able to apply films, and Apple does not recommend films, Apple does not recommend that users use mobile phone protective films for iPhone 17 to avoid interfering with visual effects.
This has led to many netizens who are unaware of screen coating. Can’t they apply films for AR anti-reflection? Worrying that using iPhone 17 screen drop machine with bare metal requires a high repair fee.
The protective patch on the iPhone 17 series will cause the coating to be pulled off. In fact, this is not the case. For example, Apple will add AF anti-fingerprint layer to the original iPhone 16 and old models. It has been several years since then, and it is even more impossible to cause damage to the coating after the film is applied.
As for some netizens who think that they have no film or scratches for several generations of iPhones, the crazy man is actually skeptical of this statement. Basic AF anti-fingerprint coating can only reduce screen fingerprints and does not have anti-scratch characteristics. Even the iPhone 16 Pro series is also easy to cause scratches on the screen due to daily use.
The hardness of the iPhone screen is scratch-resistant. For example, the sand and dust in the pocket contain quartz components, which are harder than glass. It will leave fine marks when it is rubbed. Even though the hardness of metal keys and coins is lower than that of glass, there will inevitably be sand particles in the air attached to the corners of the key, and traces will appear as soon as they slide.
Can iPhone 17 be filmed? How to pay attention to the selection of protective stickers
So can iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Pro series screens be covered with protective stickers? The answer is yes!
The main reason is that the top layer of the iPhone 17 screen is still an AF anti-fingerprint coating. As long as it is used for a long time, the coating will slowly be worn off with daily use, and it is easy to be gradually consumed by finger sweat and oil. Usually, as long as there is no protective patch, the anti-fingerprint coating will be worn off in just about a year.
That also means that as long as the iPhone has no filming state for a long time, the original AF anti-fingerprint coating protection at the top will begin to destroy the AR anti-reflective coating of the iPhone 17 after being worn out by daily use. Therefore, there is no saying that tearing the protective patch will destroy the coating. If it is not pasted, it will be even worse. The coating will be more likely to be damaged after the end of the use of the bare machine.
If you want to choose iPhone 17 protective sticks, you should also pay special attention to it. Don’t buy cheap miscellaneous brand protective stick products. This type of protective stick may not destroy the anti-reflective coating, but the reflection, perspective and original color restoration effect is extremely poor. Even if the iPhone 17 itself has an AR anti-reflective coating, it will easily reflect and have color difference due to the poor quality of the protective stick. After applying it, the anti-reflective effect of Apple’s original screen fails, which is equivalent to downgrading the iPhone screen yourself.
If you want to choose iPhone 17 protective patch, it is more recommended to choose well-known protective patch brands such as imos, Simmpo or hoda. After all, only those who specialize in protective patch design manufacturers can launch corresponding products. Imos also uses Silicone glue material, which can reduce the impact of screen coating, and even avoid reflection and perspective affecting the performance of the original screen, and reduce screen scratches or ruptures.
Finally, I would like to remind you that it is recommended to apply a film to the iPhone screen to protect the original screen. The price will be higher if you sell it later. If the screen without a film is scratched, the relative price will change.
