Should Tim Cook allow future iPhones to have a pre-installed screen protector?

That's the worst idea I've ever heard. I'm very, very sorry to say that.
Awesome contribution to this post.

free screen protectors already installed is a stupid idea? 😂 boy, you’ve been peeling off protective films off iPhones since they’ve came out. If they had them specially cut to serve as screen protectors then people don’t need to go out and get them and have them installed.
 
People assume this would just cause tons of waste, but I’m pretty sure a lot more people will appreciate a screen protector pre installed than having no protection at all.
 
Comparing that cheap film that covers the screen during shipping to an actual screen protector is a bit of a leap, don't you think?

Apple did. Apple said it.
No they didn’t. And you shouldn’t complain about a free screen protector, all you could afford was a dated iPhone 11, the cheaper model at that 😉💁🏼‍♀️ So 😂

Your rabid defense of your idea makes me think you're an engineer for Apple with a very important meeting with Tim tomorrow that you've been procrastinating for 😂

as the meme goes:

"please bro. Like my idea, bro. It's great bro. Please. It's great these free screen protectors, bro. It'll change you life bro"

No. Not. At. All. Lol they’ve changed the material for the film before, they can obviously change it to one that can work as a screen protector. Do I seriously need to think for you?

A screen protector has its purpose. Everyone has a USB A charger and USB A charging cable already
And the chances of Apple of including something like that, especially after so many years of not doing it, let alone for free, are about as much as them starting to include a charging adapter again.

There’s a lot of things that people said Apple wouldn’t ever do, yet they still happen eventually. Especially if controversy is involved.
 
Even if they were to do that, they will probably use cheap plastic film like other phone devs. Those films are not durable and you might as well not have it. Apple won't do that anyway.

I really don’t see how this would cause any more waste than the paper films they use now. I mean they could use a clear film that could be recycled If the user didn’t want it.
