You don't use a screen protector?

Are you certain that the stylus is scratching the screen and not just putting smudges on it?

Have you tried cleaning the screen with a soft cloth and a mixture of water and isopropyl alcohol?

I believe the OP, I have several scratches on my screen from the stylus. I try really hard to not use it at all now. I don't really care though, that's why I don't have a screen protector, but the stylus is the last thing I expected to scratch my screen. I haven't seen any stylus replacements, but I would be interested if anyone has.

P.S. Why is it with this forum that the first couple comments are always along the lines of "are you SURE you're not ******ed?" These types of comments don't help anyone.

I have had this happen to, its tiny particles sticking to the tip of the stylus, it get picked up from the screen. I often swirl the stylus against jeans or other clothing material a few times, like zooming in microb. Replacements styluses are available, I have bought originals from here. But I use screen protector so its only the protector that get these tiny sharp scratches.

First, you should attach a screen protector. Then using a stylus pen to replace your finger.
As I don't know which kind of stylus you are looking, so I suggest this stylus catalogue for you: http://www.sourcingmap.com/cell-phon...-980_1872.html
I am using a replacement pen for my Samsung F490 phone. It's Soft rubber tip, let me type with precision and tap or scroll with ease.
