desertcart.com : Paperlike® 2.1 Screen Protector (2x) for iPad Pro 12.9 inch for an authentic paper feel : Electronics

Review: Installation is a bliss (when you order from paperlike) - I was really looking forward to writing on my iPad and feeling like I was writing on paper. The reviews, for those few, who can get it on,are great, so I took the bullet. I wasted 40$ and 2 paperlike protectors. First steps of the installation are easy enough, like any other protector. But once you go to remove "2" aka "paperlike side" you are done, the whole thing comes off, paperlike and "foil" I took my time, was not in a rush, watched the video 3x before attempting it on my own. The paperlike came off both times. It's not worth it if you can't get it installed. You waste money, energy and end up with the same glass screen to started with. I wish I could have gotten it on, but the other reviews are right. Installation is hard, and may be 1/3 of them work out for a great experience. So disappointed UPDATE: I updated from 1 star to 5 stars. This is why... 1. Customer service is amazing, they contacted me after my initial review and sent me a replacement for free. It arrived in 2-3 days, so fast and efficient at no extra cost. 2. I realized it's not paperlike's fault. It comes down to storage/desertcart/heat. I believe the first one I got from desertcart wasn't stored properly and the two films were practically melted together, so they came off together. The paperlike I got from the company itself was a bliss of an installation. I followed the same steps as before, but ran into absolutely zero issues. 3. It really feels like you are writing on paper! And also like you are flipping real pages in a way? It has a different feel when scrolling through pages (left/right) that's similar to paper ..you just have to try it, hard to explain lol Only con is the slight opacity it brings to the screen. About 5-10% opacity, but Ill get used to it cause the trade off it's absolutely worth it. Biggest lesson here, order directly from paperlike, follow the video and you'll have no issues ...and if you do, they got your back ;)
Review: Updated -- installation tip - My original review is below. I had a hard time with installation due to dust and air bubbles. I complained that there was no tool included to remove air bubbles, so when I was trying to eliminate them by pressing them out with my fingers, the sticky side of the protector was exposed to the air too long and I ended up getting a lot of dust particles. Paperlike read my review and sent me a replacement protector and also advised me to use something like a credit card to press out the bubbles. And they explained that they do not include a tool in order to reduce waste since most people will have a card / ID of some sort. I totally support this. I used a card to install the replacement screen and it worked like a charm. The protector is perfect now. I'm not sure why my first one was scuffing, but so far I'm not seeing that problem with the replacement. --- Original review: The first screen I installed had so many bubbles in it and seemed to draw in lint from the environment, had to discard. I install screen protectors regularly. With these, you have to lay them down really fast or you end up with lint. But installing fast means you don't have the opportunity to press or the air bubbles and no tool is provided for this purpose. I installed the 2nd screen more to my satisfaction but I'm finding that it scuffs easily despite me storing my ipad in a laptop sleeve and the scuffs don't come off with cleaning. They are not scuffs caused by my Apple Pencil. I have no idea what they are, but I store my other iPad the same way and have never experienced this. I have another iPad for work and I installed a cheaper matte screen protector from an "off" brand and it has none of these problems. I went with the "nicer" protector for my personal iPad, but I feel like I wasted my money on this and will just have to buy another set of cheaper matte protectors. Can't seem to get any customer support since I've "used" these by installing them. Not a fan of wasting $45 plus the cost of protectors that I know will work. Goes to show that marketing efforts don't always equal quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How can I avoid or remove bubbles?**
A: Paperlike 2.1’s easy application kit makes installation quick and hassle-free. With step-by-step video instructions and guide stickers, you’ll get a flawless, bubble-free application on the first try.

**Q: Can Paperlike be used on top of a glass screen protector?**
A: For best results, we recommend using Paperlike directly on your iPad display. Applying it on top of another screen protector would reduce Apple Pencil responsiveness.

**Q: How can I avoid scratches on my screen protector?**
A: Good news: Paperlike 2.1 is more scratch-resistant than previous editions. It will protect your iPad against scuffs and scratches wherever you are. If you take care of it (clean it, case it), it’ll take care of you - and your iPad.

**Q: What’s the difference between Nanodots and nano-texture?**
A: Paperlike’s proprietary Nanodotsare microbeads that add resistance and improve haptic feedback when using the Apple Pencil, mimicking the feel of writing on paper. Apple’s nano-texture display reduces glare but doesn’t add sensory feedback.

**Q: How can I clean my Paperlike?**
A: Cleaning your Paperlike is easy and will help extend its life. The best way is to use the Paperlike Cleaning Kit, designed to keep your screen pristine on-the-go. Alternatively, you can wipe it down with a damp towel and a drop of dish soap.

### ⭐ READ ME IF YOU’RE INDECISIVE
*by A***R on April 19, 2025*

Okay, so where do I start. I thought people were exaggerating when they said this was difficult to put on. BELIEVE ME, it is. Honestly, I’m usually good at stuff like this, and I’m a pretty particular about the details. First off I wasn’t expecting the top layer “sticker” to be sticker than the actual portion that adheres to the iPad. This is what caused it to peel up, lose its positron and gather some particles under. I tried to reposition it, and in the process the screen protector folded in on itself and caused a kink so I was forced to make the second one work. So, I gave it another go, and this time the underside adhesive that covers the bottom portion of the screen protector was the difficult one to pull off. That again made me lose the positioning of the guide stickers and when I finally got the bottom layer off, I was back at square one putting on the screen protector by eye with my hands. I was kind of forced to do this since I was afraid of another kink and I’d lose my second chance at it. Finally, I went ahead and put it on, but man, there were SO MANY dust particles underneath the screen protector. At this point, I’m just going to live with it, and honestly, I don’t know if it’s worth it. Goofing my hand across the screens “feels” like paper I guess. I want to like it but damn, that application was a pain in the ass. My advice, if you’re not comfortable putting these on, DONT TRY IT. Maybe get something easier to apply. I might try and get a refund idk, lowkey feels annoying at this point. Which is why I left a 1 star. The packaging gets a 5 star tho. It was really put together and neat, but maybe they need to spend a little more time reengineering the adhesive structure. Seems to be off balance somewhere.
