Pros of Screen Protectors

Scratch and Impact Protection: The primary benefit of screen protectors is their ability to safeguard your device’s screen from scratches and impacts. By absorbing the initial impact, they prevent the glass from directly contacting hard surfaces, reducing the likelihood of cracks and damage.
Increased Durability: Screen protectors add an extra layer of durability to your device, prolonging its lifespan and potentially saving you money on costly repairs or replacements.
Fingerprint and Smudge Resistance: Many screen protectors are designed to repel fingerprints and smudges,keeping your device’s screen cleaner for longer periods. This feature is especially beneficial for those who frequently use their devices on the go or for work-related tasks.
Privacy Options: Some screen protectors come with a privacy filter, making it difficult for others to view your screen from an angle. This feature is ideal for maintaining confidentiality during sensitive tasks or when you’re using your device in public spaces.



Cons of Screen Protectors

Reduced Screen Clarity: One common drawback of screen protectors is that they can affect the device’s screen clarity, particularly if you opt for lower-quality protectors. The installation process could lead to bubbles or smudges, further compromising the visual experience.
Sensitivity and Touch Issues: Depending on the material and quality, some screen protectors may hinder touchscreen sensitivity, leading to delayed or inaccurate responses to touch gestures. This can be frustrating for users who require precise input for tasks like gaming or design work.
Installation Challenges: Applying a screen protector correctly can be tricky and requires patience to avoid air bubbles and misalignment. If not done properly, it could impact the overall effectiveness of the protector or lead to an unsightly appearance.
Compatibility with Cases: Certain screen protectors might not be compatible with some phone cases, causing the edges of the screen protector to peel or lift, exposing the screen to potential damage.

Yes for me, since i don't use cover for the screen. I not sure whether SP will affect Pencil's Accuracy... i think this will be the area for people to look into if they want to use the pencil

Depends on your needs. Tempered glass also has downsides – folio covers tend to feel very slippery resting on the screen when closed, and the same slippery feeling also affects the Apple Pencil accuracy/feel if you do a lot of note taking or artwork on your iPad.

I’ve previously used Elecom paper type film on an iPad Pro and Power Support Crystal Film for theiPad mini 6. Currently using Bellemond tempered glass on my mini 7.

Personally, based on my own experience, I feel films are more suitable for iPads than tempered glass. Problem is availability. Majority of films sold locally (eg: Shopee) are the paper-like matte types. If you’re like me and don’t plan to write/draw with the Pencil, you will want regular clear films, but for those types it’s harder to find good brands selling here. The reason I went with tempered glass for my current mini 7 was because I couldn’t find my preferred brand of film (Power Support) anywhere.

Of you’re happy with your current phone’s tempered glass brand and the downsides I mentioned don’t apply to you, then by all means get the same brand for your iPad as well.
