amFilm Glass Screen Protector for iPad Air 3, iPad Pro 10.5" (2017), Apple Pencil Compatible, Tempered Glass, 2 Pack

I have bought from Techmatte for probably 5 years it seems. I have had their screens for Iphone models 4, 5, 6+ and iPad models Air and Pro 10.5. These protectors have been in plastic film and glass. The latest glass versions such as the 10.5 are excellent and work just as adverstised. In the past I used the plastic versions and like them better since they do not break easily on installation and will not break when dropped. Installation of the plastic screen is more tricky and they seem to be more suscepitable to dust entrapement. It appears that the glass version will actually hide the dust in the glue but that is just a guess.This specific product was easy to install and since I had two I just jumped in and did it the first time without all the preparation such as steaming bathroom, etc. Here is what I did and recommend:- If you have very dry air and detect static anywhere in your house then do this project in a recently steamed bathroom to kill off dust and static.- turn off all air handling systems such as A/C or heat, ceiling fans and get in an area with NO AIR MOVEMENT.- find a hard surface to work on like a desk and make sure you have strong light. Wipe off the entire work area to get rid of dust.- read instructions and watch video before starting.- wash your hands, wear the most lint free clothing you have. Dry hands with paper towel.- clean your screen with dish detergent and water but only on a 1” area of paper towel. Dry screen with paper towel and look at an angle for dust. Blow off whatever dust you see.- wipe screen with alchohol wipe provided. Go from one edge to the other and off the phone.- wipe the damp screen with the microfiber cloth supplier in circular motion and check for no dust looking at a angle of reflection.- peel off step one but do this away from the phone and do it slowly to make sure you do not have static buildup attracting dust.- looking straight down carefully align the home button and speaker holes. I have found that some times just centering the screen and using the sides for equal clearence works best. Now gently touch the glass to the screen and let the attachment flow...you will actually see it flow like water from point of contact to edge. I would not touch or press until you see most bubbles are out. If you have some then gently work with the squeege out from the center to the edge. Once you have it all in hand then you can press harder. Do not attempt to lift and reset as you will only find you get dust and loss of adhesion. I think this is why you get two in this package!- If you see any dust then put the device in a warm place or in the sun until it warms then try to squeege it out. If you have no success then just wait a few days as it may just go away as the glue flows around the dust.

Highly Recommend!!!This was my second time purchasing this product (a friend and I each took one of the screens the first time). I use the iPad for my schooling while on rotation as a medical student, which means it gets brought into the hospital daily. As a student I am constantly moving around the hospital, which makes it easy for my iPad to get dropped or moved. A few weeks ago my iPad was dropped on the concrete floor - the screen protector cracked, but my iPad did not have so much as a scratch! For around 5$ per screen protector, compared to the couple hundred for Apple Care replacement or roughly a thousand dollars for a new iPad, this is an incredible deal.A couple key points:1. even after the screen protector cracked, it still remained fully intact from the adhesive to the screen...this meant my iPad was safe from any liquid or debris until my new screen protectors arrived2. the new screen protectors arrived just as quickly as the first ones..always a bonus3. installation is very easy and all of the tools come with it. having installed multiple different screen protectors on my phone and other tablet devices previously, I can honestly say this installation was the easiest with the best results (you don't get the bubbles of air that just won't come out like you do with cheaper built screen protectors)I honestly don't have anything even remotely negative to say about this product. Right price, provides even better protection than expected, and easy to install. I will never go without one of these on my devices again - a must have for anyone looking to keep their iPad screen safe even in non-office settings.

Completely honest... I expected this to be difficult to apply or have some type of minor malfunction/mishap in it considering the price. It seemed like a steal... two screens, two wet wipes/dry wipes, dust wipe, dust stickers, a card for any bubbles, easy to follow directions, along with a lifetime warranty? You know what they say, if it's too good to be true, it usually is.When I finished applying the protector... I was shocked. It took less than ten minutes using a very, very steady hand after reading directions (which were simple. Peel the adhesive protector off, flip it over, grip by the sides, very very slowly lower, get rid of the bubbles, peel off the other side... wa-la). It provided immaculate edge-to-edge protection, I actually thought I peeled off the entire protector when I took off the second layer.My iPad Air was still brand new in the box, so it made cleaning and installation simple. However, make sure ALL of your tools are unboxed. Dust will settle on the brand new screen, even if you think dust isn't anywhere in the air, on you, around you, etc. I unpacked something beside it and dust settled all over and I had to wipe it down again. No big deal.The first layer is the adhesive. The sides have tabs so you can hold it to position it very steadily. You lower it down, let the screen stick, press down the center then the sides... use the card (I wrapped mine in the little cloth they give, cardboard seemed a bit harsh) to remove any bubbles, then peel off the tab which removed the cover that was on top of the actual tempered glass so that when you are picking it up/down, removing bubbles, it isn't scratched by anything (example: the card). When I peeled off the second layer after making sure there were no bubbles, I honestly thought I peeled off the glass. You could hardly see a difference between the screen and the tempered glass, except on the edges. The edge-to-edge coverage was amazing, it fit my iPad Air 3 perfectly. Touch is fine. Sleep to wake is fine. The only true test will be time: how long it holds up, how durable it actually is, etc. The edge coverage was a concern but it still fit a clear cover for the backside of the iPad and the Apple SmartCover for the front with absolutely no issues. If you thoroughly read the directions and are very careful applying it, you'll have no issues.As long as it holds up for the next 8 months to a year without peeling, bubbles, or need to use the second one so early, this brand will be all I use going forward for my devices. We will have to see.
