Recommended screen protector for iPad Pro

I'm looking for a screen protector for my iPad Pro 11'. Any recommendations?


I've been looking at matte ones that tend to reproduce paper feel, but haven't decided.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

You might consider using a good quality tempered glass screen protector. In addition to providing a smooth surface over which the Pencil tip will glide, the additional glass layer will protect both the original anti-reflection treatment - and the sacrificial oleophobic coating that will otherwise wear-out over time.


Zagg and Otterbox are amongst the better manufacturers of tempered glass screen protectors - with good reputation.


Some users comment that a glass screen protector makes the screen very slippery when using the Apple Pencil or other third-party active stylus (e.g., Logitech Crayon or Zagg Pro Stylus). The alternative is a matte/textured film screen protector - but these have principal disadvantages.


1) The textured film reduces clarity and contrast

2) Accelerated wear of the Pencil tip, necessitating more frequent tip replacement.

3) Film screen protectors do not provide additional impact resistance/protection.
