A friend suggested a screen protector would be a good idea for me because I live on a ranch with dust and grime. Thoughts? Experiences? I see several on Amazon less than 20 bucks.

I see these and just don’t really get the point. I’m not going to drop it in the parking lot. I’ve never been compelled enough to spend $20 on one.

Don't really see the need. I have had several screens and never had any issues, even with my 2013 Escape.

Personal preference. I've always have applied it to my screen for added protection from my kid.

The glare from the protector would not be worth the benefits. You can even see it in the pic to sell.

They have the same ones on Amazon for $15

That would make for an easier decision.

I put one on to avoid having so damn many fingerprints, and it works great. If I manage to scratch it, jut pop it off no problem. Did not change my screen sensitivity at all....

I bought one off Amazon and it's easy to get fingerprints and dust off the screen with a wet rag.

If you are a woman with nice manicured nails then yes. The soft fingertip pad won't hurt it. But my wife's nail tips would dent the screen 😀

I got one on mine it works well. Just in case I press to hard or scratch the original it protects it.

On a whim I grabbed one off of Amazon. You can't tell it is there... except.. no more finger print smears. No glare. No scratches. Worth the few bucks for no more smudges.

That would be me, and yes, I do use a screensaver.

Can you please post the link, I purchased the one mentioned above and it is not anti-glare. Thanks!

Mine looked great until I noticed what looked like a an edge that wasn't completely down. I ran a fingernail along it and it popped a corner off. I barely touched it. Way more fragile than I expected. I don't remember which one I chose.. worked fine until I touched it... Lol. Now I am just letting the screen shine in it's natural beauty.
