Tired of constantly having to wipe your iPad 2 screen? The Case-Mate Anti-Glare Anti-Fingerprint screen protector solves several problems at once. It not only gets rid of grim and prevents greasy fingertip marks, it also keeps your iPad 2 safe from scratches on the display. On top of all that, the screen protector’s matte finish helps eliminate almost all glare. Case-Mate shows once again why they are leaders in case designs. For only $20, this is a solid investment.

Pros

Overview

One of the most irritating battles you can have with your tablet is keeping the screen clean. Along with touchscreens come fingerprints, dust and dirt, which show up everywhere. Case-Mate has solved this problem with its new screen protector that is both anti-glare and anti-fingerprint. It’s made from a tough self-adhesive polymer, which keeps up the overall cleanliness of your iPad 2 making it look even sharper. The screen protector is particularly useful to prevent greasy fingerprints from appearing all over the tablet. So, no more having to embarrassingly wipe off your tablet before you hand it to a friend.

The only problem that came up when I was using the screen protector was in the application process. Although it should be a pretty simple 5-step process (see instructional video on Case-Mate's website), it can be difficult to get all the dust off the display – if there's dust, there'll be bubbling. When you get past that first step though, everything with the screen protector works great.

Features

  • Anti fingerprint screen protectors for iPad2
  • Made from a tough self-adhesive polymer
  • Prevents fingerprints, dirt, dust and scratches
  • Easy to apply and remove and will not disrupt the touchscreen function
  • Protection kit comes with a micro-fiber cleaning cloth and an applicator card.

N/ADesign:
3.0Functionality: Okay
Case-Mate has packed a lot of features into this one: no glare, no fingerprints and protection. The screen protector is pretty easy to apply once you get the hang of it. When its time to move on, simply remove and no sticky residue is left behind. Plus, the screen protector doesn’t disrupt the touchscreen function of your iPad 2.
4.0Quality: Great
Case-Mate always uses Grade A material, this screen protector being no exception. The matte finish looks smooth like a photo.
2.5Protection: Mediocre
Your display is safe with Case Mate’s screen protector guarding your tablet. There’s no protection anywhere else on the tablet unfortunately. Luckily it is easily compatible with one of Case-Mate’s Pop! Cases.
3.5Value: Good
$20 is a great price for a screen protector with this many functions. Made from excellent material and keeps the tablet clean. Plus, the screen protection kit comes with a micro-fiber cleaning cloth.
3.3Overall: Okay

Case Mate has put out another great tablet accessory. This screen protector has 3 functions: keeps away greasy fingerprints, eliminates glare and protects against scratches. Not much more than the average single-use protector. A great deal at $20!

"Forget oily screen"

on 2012 Aug, 9 by Jesse Nolan
I never thought that a screen protector can help reduce smudging on the iPad. That is until a friend of mine recommended this Case-Mate protector. Twenty bucks isn’t a lot of money, I thought to myself and ordered it. I was pleasantly surprised how drastically the film reduces the oily fingerprints on the screen. And it’s really easy to clean too! Naturally, the scratch protection is also there, but I would recommend this one primarily because of its fingerprint reduction capabilities.
