If your iPad wears a screen protector like mine used to, I suggest you rip it off right now. I took the film off three days ago, and the screen has become way more gorgeous than what I had been looking at for an entire summer – the peerless retina display is finally rescued from being completely obscured. And the screen feels much more smooth and sleek too!

Four months ago, before I even began using my new iPad, I installed a matte screen protector because I hate scratches. I still do, but I’ve just learned that the iPad screen itself is in fact highly scratch resistant. If used at home, the screen is unlikely to be threatened at all. However, if often carried around in a bag like mine is, it could use some protection. Smart cover is an option, but I don’t enjoy holding the device with extraneous plastic. So I got a stylish case from SkinAt.

I’m so happy with the discovery and the change.
