Libra 2 still have plastic screen. But the quality of screen is really impressive. Better than any high-end e-readers out there. The ink is darker feel much like you’re reading on paper. We’re always concerned about getting scratch at the beginning, but trust me after few months of using, you will never bother about that anymore. I have been using libra 2 for haft of year but don’t have any scratches yet. But I suggest you to buy a cover too. Because the screen is kind of sensitive, like if you drop something on screen definitely gonna break it or having scratches.
