Screen Protector

[roscoe5]

I know Chad Boston has a screen guard.  But just wondering if the Helix Stadium screen is acrylic, gorilla glass, etc. and safe to put a phone/tablet touch sensitive screen protector on.

Did that screen protector work?

I got one of these:

After recommendations somewhere on here I think. Not glass but very thick strong plastic and looks nice without affecting the touchscreen. I went for matt.

 

 My only gripe is it doesn't stay fully adhered underneath the knobs but that's just an aesthetic thing due to the small width below the knobs and really doesn't affect anything unless I am really looking. Much better than risking the lovely screen

The question I've always asked myself is given how ridiculously fragile, expensive and essential touchscreens are on ALL devices that have them, and how only the manufacturers are capable of installing them completely dust free (who hasn't tied themselves in knots trying to get that last bit of dust out when installing a screen protector, only to make it worse and then throwing away the protector altogether and repeating the process 18 times?!) WHY OH WHY don't the manufacturers install something at the factory that ISN'T flimsy and designed to be peeled off, just to be messily replaced with a thicker version that you've bought on Amazon??
