Best screen protector?
Hi all - so I recently got my first iPad. Opted for the Pro 2022 11-inch with Apple Pencil. However, I am now stuck in screen protector **** and could use some advice.
One - is a screen protector needed? I’ve used JETech tempered glass protectors on my last 2 iPhones and like the extra protection they provide (never had a broken screen or screen protector), but I’ve read the odd review that says glass screen protectors affect the Apple Pencil - notably that lines are squiggly - and “naked is best”, but while I do have Apple Care+, and I have a Folio Case and a pouch to keep the iPad in when not in use, I still don’t want scratches to become an issue - even little ones. If I can avoid them, I’d like to!
Two - what kind of screen protector is recommended? They all have pros and cons for me.
Tempered Glass - familiar and protective, I know they work for iPhones, BUT may affect pencil use and be too reflective.
Paper/Matte - clarity of the screen is not an issue for me, may be nice to have more friction on the pencil, hopefully less relective BUT seem to scratch easily, may wear out pencil nib faster, unsure how easy to use it is with finger.
Regular Plastic - kinda the best and worst of both worlds; won’t affect pencil use much and is a simple way to avoid scratches on the screen, BUT is reflective and not as strong as glass would be.
Three - which brand and type is best and available in the UK (or able to be shipped to the UK)? I read so many great reviews for the Elecom Paper Feel Matte Screen Protector, and yet its sold out on Amazon UK and US, and I can’t find it elsewhere (does anyone know if they tend to restock?). JETech is my go to for iPhone Tempered Glass, but I’m open to suggestions.
Apologies for what I’m sure is a common question and thank you!
