I have used many different screen protectors on my phones, watches and digital camera screens over the years. The majority have been the peel and stick type that you apply with a water base.

It never fails. I always seem to forget to take out the trash until after the sun has set. It also figures that the place where my trashcans are located is a very dark side of our house. Most of the time I just stumble around hoping to get to the proper trash can (we

The iPad Pro 12.9″ is a great device. It has a beautiful screen, works beautifully with the Pencil, and could serve as a laptop replacement for many.
