Garmin screen protector or case: what to get

Garmin watches are built tough, but their screens still meet rocks, bike stems and gym racks.

Glass for flat screens

Forerunner, Fenix, Epix and Instinct have flat screens: 9H tempered glass sits flush and keeps buttons free.

Venu and vivoactive AMOLED screens curve at the edge; TPU or PMMA film follows the curve.

Sweat and salt water corrode charging contacts. A silicone plug keeps the port clean between charges.
