Some people say they're worse than pointless.

If I should.

Hey, does your bottom screen protector scratch with even the stylus? I got one that scratches with every swipe of the stylus.

I got mine for 99c on ebay. I was really happy that I got both protectors on without any bubbles only to relises a plastic stylus scratched the shit out of it. I guess I will order some hori

I already have the a clear case, a harder plastic one.
Although I don't really agree with their advertising technique, I will still buy one.
The "no bubbles" is BS. Anyone who spends more than 4 seconds can get any protector on without any bubbles.

Yah lol.. but its not that its bs, its just way advertissing.. i mean, they all say that :P
..but i got to admit that the hori ones, really have no bubbles, right after applying it. You dont even have to squeese them out, theres just no bubble right after its applyed :P

Hori makes some pretty good ones. They're cheap enough that I don't see why not. I'd rather have them and not need them than not have them and end up with a scratched lens.

Should I use condoms? The answer is the same.

Another vote for Hori screen protectors. Using them on my n3DS - no impact whatsoever in visual quality and they went on perfectly (no bubbles).

for the bottom yea just as long as its not to thick so you dont impact the touch sensitivity.
as for the top its pointless. the top screen is not touched and is protected when the device is closed.

Ideally. Crap happens, though. Especially when there's kids around or you're out in public.
