The global smartphone screen protectors market size was estimated at $49.73 billion in 2022and the global protective cover market was anticipated to reach $21.89 billion in that same year.

That's insane, are screen protectors really twice the market size of phone cases??

Screen protectors need to be changed way more often than a good case and they are usually similar is prices so this makes sense to me.
