Ipad screen protector

hi all just a bit of a stupid question is there a difference between the ipad 1 and ipad 2 screen protectors as i have some left over from the old ipad just wondering if i need to buy new ones before i get the ipad 2

I think folks have reported a few mm difference in the size of the display's surface.

Ipad Screen protector with impact protection?

I need to get a Protection for my ipad and iphone5 from my kids, and I came a cross Rhino Shield on marshable.
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1081571316/rhino-shield-the-impact-resistant -screen-protector
looks very good indeed, and this is what i want. The question is has anyone has any experience with this Screen protector before?

Just keep the screen clean by blowing or brushing off dust and debris before and after use and when stored and you should be fine. The Apple case is a nice case but it does not keep debris and dust away from the glass since it simply sits on top of the screen with no seal. In addition to the Apple case get one of those very inexpensive foam zipper bags which will not only keep dust and debris away but will protect it from drops and bumps while traveling and storing.
Do not use microfiber cloths. A fluffy 100%cotton piece of towel is what you should use to gently wet clean and dry it with. Do not reuse your cleaning cloths. Wash before using them again. I keep a small ziploc bag with a few cut pieces of towel inside in my iPad zipper case.
I used to be seriously into photography and had many expensive lenses with much more delicate glass than the iPad's and these are the things I did and never once did i scratch a lens. The iPad has such a gorgeous screen that is a shame when it is covered. I have had mine since they came out and my glass looks brand new. The cause of scratches is not through typical use but because a harder than glass piece of debris gets in between the glass and whatever else is pressing against that debris, usually not your finger. Just keep it clean before and after use and keep it in a sealed case in addition to your Apple case and the chances of scratching the screen will be almost zero.
The ipads on display in stores are very rarely scratched even after thousands of people touching and using them every day. That shows how tough the display actually is.

Anti-***Reflective***, not Anti-Glare, iPhone/iPad Screen Protector?

Short version: Does anybody know of a true anti-reflective screen-protector sheet for iPhone 4S or for iPad?
More detail:
Way back on my old iPhone 3G, I had an anti-reflective screen protector sheet. It worked really really great in direct-sunlight environments! The only downside was that it did show up fingerprints, but they didn't show up much when the screen was on, and they were easy to clean off.
When it finally wore out, I bought somebody else's screen protector that they called anti-reflective, but it was actually just anti-glare. **Anti-glare** is that frosty finish that does not actually dim reflections, but instead makes them fuzzy. In fact, it makes the image on the screen a bit fuzzy too, which is why I don't like them. **Anti-reflective** is like a camera lens, or most glasses, where it reflects images still completely focused (and doesn't fuzz up the screen image either), but reflects it at a much dimmer intensity, often with a greenish hue.
Best I can tell, no such product exists anymore, for iPhone or for iPad. Do any of you know of such a thing?

I did spend some time searching, but could not find any similar discussion in this forum.

Ipad screen protector film

Is ipad with retina display comes with any screen protector? Or apple produces the same for separate sales? otherwise which is the other go?

If older kids and adults use the iPad, you don't really need a screen protector. If very young kids use the iPad, a screen protector might provide protection of the screen if the kid drags a toy or some sharp object across the screen. I installed one because my grandkids use the iPad.

Protecting cracked ipad screen from further damage with protector

Howdy.... I have an ipad 2. The screen recently developed a spider web-type crack. I honestly have no idea how it happened. I did not drop it. I've been on a number of plane trips recently and noticed it after checking into a hotel. It was in my cabin luggage. Possibly someone dumped something on it in the overhead bin, or it got tossed around??
Anyway, it does still seem to function completely fine. Towards the edge of the screen on one side there is about 1 mm of depression/displacement of the sides of the fracture. Otherwise the cracks are non-displaced. I have no problem using it.
I am in a country with no apple stores. I could submit to an authorized repair place and wait for it to be repaired. However, I am anticipating ipad 3 coming out soon and I am wondering about the option of simply not fixing the screen at all.
I bought an ipad screen protector and put it on the screen under the theory that this might inhibit cracks from propagating further. Anyone have any insight or ideas about this? What happens when you use a cracked ipad screen over time? Does it inevitably get worse?
I am wondering if I can just use it as-is with the screen protector until ipad 3 comes out. The cracks are actually hard to notice during actual use, with the screen on.

The glass is laminated structure, the top layer is oleophobic plastic very thin, then there is the sensor and finally the glass. Same for ipad and iphone. See below.
If it works, keep going. Since you plan to buy a new one anyway. A case of 'its broken, but no need to fix it' !

Should I get a screen protector on my new iPad 4

I just got my iPad 4 for Christmas as long with the iPhone 5. I got a screen protector and a case on my iPhone, Recently I got the iPad smart case for my iPad and I was wondering it the case protects the screen and should I consider getting an iPad screen protector.

Why not?
Screen protectors can be a wonderful thing when put on correctly. I have a screen protector on my ipad.

Should I get a screen protector for my iPad or better buy a sleeve?

I already have a belkin case for my iPad ( which is way better compared to the apple case I returned mine and got the belkin instead)
Now I'm planning on buying a screen protector for my iPad Or a sleeve for traveling... Is it worth the buy to get an iPad screen protector? Or should I wait and look for more option when choosing a screen protector ?

Don't waste the money on a screen protector. Greasy fingers are easy to clean with a dry lint-free cloth since the screen is oleophobic or resistant to oil. You might actually have a worse experience with the screen protector. The glass is almost resistant to scratching. If my iPhone experience is anything, I've throw it into my pocket with keys, and I have no scratches on the screen.
Get the sleeve. I like the Apple version, because I can prop it up on my desk, and it does protect the screen when you're not using it.

Conformal screen protector on Iphone 6

Just got my iPhone 6. Nice looking phone.
I have Always put a screen protector and case on my iPhones. So I had some ready for this phone.
But then I saw an issue. The screen is a "conformal" screen. Any screen protector will only fit the flat part of the screen!! I put mine and it it looks like crap. Where with previous phones you mostly could not even tell that there is a protector on the screen. Mine now looks like a have a transparent material sitting on a portion of the screen.
Does anyone know if anyone is making a conformal screen protector. Maybe that is in the too hard category??

I Have not seen one, but I took an iPad screen protector that I had and cut it out to fit on the screen. Looks great. These companies are being ******** the screen meets the sides, but the glass is not "curved" guess I'll have to keep doing that until they figure out people don't want their iPhones to only be half covered!

Deep Scratches in iPad screen

I have had my iPad since December and have always been careful with it, cleaned it regularly etc.
But just recently 3 deep scratches have appeared on my screen and they distort the image below them. I have been looking for a protector screen for it but apple doesn't sell them and no computer type stores near me do either.
Has anyone had the same problem and if so, did you go to the genius bar? And what did they make of it?

The Genius Bar will do nothing, scratches are user damage and are not covered by warranty.
If they were not there when you got the device then you are responsible for the damage.
Amazon sell iPad screen protectors, just use Google.

I have this weird stain in my ipad screen and screen protector that has formed around a crack in the glass.

Some time ago my ipad 4 screen slowly began forming a long hairline crack at one corner and near the home button for some reason, perhaps daily rough and tumble taking it to class and whatnot. The crack is not very noticeable so I have delayed getting the screen repaired.
I used to have a Boxwave Cleartouch Ultra screen protector on, and as directed, would peel it off now and then to give it a good wash(it's one of those reusable ones with adhesive on the edges only and yes they are meant to be washed now and then). One day after doing this, I noticed a strange puddle of tiny round stains clustering near the crack. I didn't think much of it until I equipped my ipad with a stronger ipad case with it's own screen protector. The stain seemed to cling onto the Boxwave screen protector even after cleaning. Now with a new screen protector the stains around the crack were these tiny rainbowy areas around the crack that sat on top of the glass and were visible as just some kind of smudge when the screen was turned off. I recently discovered the stain has transferred to my new screen protector when I remove it and is visible when you look at it at an angle when removed from the ipad. Not even dish soap seems to get rid of it.
I am wondering what this stain could be, I mean there is no liquid pooling out of the digitizer or anything. One idea I have is that maybe some adhesive from the first screen protector got loose after washing and pooled into the crack and thats why they have a smudgy appearance that they got when wiping the screen dry. There are no liquid stains under the crack however. Another thing I thought of was maybe something to do with oleophobic coating and the crack itself. I am also wondering how to get rod of it safety.

You are welcome.

I have the same case with you an iPad Air in dead pixel or speckle silver dust on screen. It is been 3 months I bought in Avant Abenson in Greenbelt Makati Philippines. Today I decided to change my screen protector film but the speckle dust on the screen

Speckles dust on the screen and it cannot be removed today when I decided to change the screen protector film and noticed is not my fault it is a factory defect on screen it is either dead pixel or speckle dust on screen they are so many said and experience I have read. So I need the replacement a new one for that dismayed screen on my iPad Air. I bought this 3 months ago in Avant Abenson at Greenbelt Makati Philippines. I need the replacement for tomorrow I will go to the store I bought. I love apple products but they need to replace and make go round to improve some defects and cannot be more escalate with this issue of the many of patronizing your products. It is sometimes irritating to the eyes and seen dirt on the screen. Thank you apple customer service to bringing up my complaints and a replacement for tomorrow's to inform the store I bought and advise them here in the Philippines to facilitate in regards to this matter.

I wanted to buy an ipad air to replace my ipad 2 but the one I wanted was (luckily) sold out.
Yesterday I tested the air from a collegue and I noticed the screen was SUBSTANTIALLY less sensitive than the screen of my ipad 2 when using my stylus.
I use Stylus R US especially for I annotate and with the air this did not work well at all... Half of the time there was no contact registered so underying certain parts of the text was a disaster...
Just working with the finger all whent OK... Just fear that another app I use a lot (notes +) will have same problem.
On the Ipad 4 also retina all goes *** smooth as on my ipad 2...
Is this a fault of a specific ipad air series? Or is this normal?? If it is I think this is truelly a huge flaw and I cannot see how not manny people using the ipad for notetaking etc did not notice this...

IPad mini retina screen protector

I need to get a screen protector for the new iPad mini retina and, after some googling, can't locate anything confirming whether the layout of the screen exactly matches that of the predecesor, iPad mini. Is the footprint of the two devices exactly the same?

The screens are exactly the same. I have a Tech Armor HD Screen Protector on my iPad Mini and absolutely love it. You wouldn't even know it was on there if I didn't tell you.

Screen protector on an iPad with retina display?

What are your thoughts on using a screen protector on an iPad with retina display? Does this defeat the purpose of having a high quality display, or does the protection it affords despite the less sharp screen?

I like having the protection on my iPad. I use the Otterbox Defender Case that enclosed the device completely in a black hard shell cover and it has a built in screen protector. I remove the iPad from the case every other week in order to clean the iPad and the case and I use it for a few hours without the case so I can enjoy the beautiful retina display. But I do want the protection when all is said and done.
If you are a big photo editing person, or you watch a lot of movies and videos, the screen protector may spoil the experience for you. You have to make that assessment on your own.
Even with this particular built in screen protector, I can still see a big difference in the screen resolution compared to my iPad original that has a ZAGG Invisibke Shield on it.

The best case and screen protector for the iPad 4 Retina?

I have just purchased an iPad for my parents as a surprise gift and it should be arriving this Friday. I am quite stumped however on deciding on what case do I put this iPad in and what screen protector do I put on the iPad.
For screen protection: I have seen a few videos and it seems like the ZAGG HD Screen Protector is a good way to protect the screen and enjoy the retina display. Does anyone have another opinion?
For cases: I was thinking of this case: Besdata Ultra Thin Magnetic Smart Cover & Back (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00CB7QGGM/ref=oh_details_o00__i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) Does anyone recommend it? I also thought of getting a case to cover the back and pairing that up with the Apple Smart Cover .. Does anyone recommend doing that and can anyone recommend back covers?
Sorry for all the questions but I want to have this iPad perfectly set up as a surprise for my parents this Friday.
Thanks in advance.

I also thought of getting a case to cover the back and pairing that up with the Apple Smart Cover
Why not get the Smart Case, a case and cover in one? And with a cover, you don't really need a screen protector. Well, at least I don't.
