Know before you buy
Because this screen protector features a matte finish to mimic paper, it creates more friction than a standard glass screen. While it provides excellent control, you may notice slightly faster wear on your Apple Pencil tip over time compared to using the bare glass screen.
The matte finish is designed to reduce glare and reflections, which can slightly soften the sharpness of the display compared to a high-gloss screen. However, it remains highly transparent and is optimized to maintain color accuracy for creative work.
Yes, the Paper Touch EZ Fit is designed with a case-friendly edge, meaning it is cut slightly smaller than the full screen to ensure it doesn't lift or bubble when used with most protective cases, especially those from Spigen.
The EZ Fit tool is a plastic alignment frame that snaps onto your iPad. It ensures the protector is perfectly centered and aligned before you press it down, which significantly reduces the chance of bubbles or misalignment during the application process.
Yes, the matte surface is much better at hiding fingerprints and smudges than a glossy screen protector. It also makes the screen easier to wipe clean, which is helpful if you use your iPad frequently for drawing or note-taking.
Yes, this screen protector is specifically engineered to fit both the 2024 M2 and 2025 M3 versions of the 13-inch iPad Air, ensuring full coverage for the display area.
