As a content writer, I want a paper-like writing feel on my iPad Pro screen. What screen protector should I use-Paperlike or Tempered Glass protector?

Some users comment that a glass screen protector makes the screen very slippery when using the Apple Pencil. The alternative is a matt/textured film screen protector - but these have two principal disadvantages.


1) The textured film reduces clarity and contrast

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


You might also consider that tempered glass provides protection from both impact and scratching/abrasion - whereas film protectors offer no impact protection.


Given your question, accepting the stated disadvantages, the “Paperlike” screen protector may be better suited to your requirements.
