Looking for a good glass protector for the Nintendo qled I’m told afilm is good ones any particular ones of this brand and do you guys have it your thoughts?
As there are several types why did you get a certain one?
Or recommed other brands?

I would have liked to have got this prior to Xmas so protected so local would have been good as amazon might be a while to deliver.

I wish I had looked into this prior i do read on reviews some brands that the screen protector caused issues getting into dock and other issues.

    Any cheap tempered glass set will do. If you need it sooner than just choose listings that arrive sooner.

      Also not this one but same brand on another they said with protector on did not fit in dock and some other device you put on handheld this was issue also again not this product you linked but same name.
      No mention of qled I’m not so sure suitable

        No such thing has a QLED, there is such thing as an OLED switch though.

        That's the one I purchased, they have 2 models IN STORE, can't see it online. deffinitly labeled OLED, you can tell the OLED model doesn't have a notch for the light sensors.

        Just because there are not reviews doesn't mean its not good, usually good items are the ones without any reviews as noone is pissed enough to complain.

    I think you mean oled. I got this https://www.amazon.com.au/amFilm-OneTouch-Protector-Designed…
    very easy to apply since it comes with an alignment kit. But I feel like the screen got a very tiny bit darker so not sure if I recommend this.
    However, if alignment is an issue, this is great to have. It does not have any bubbles as well.

      This was one I was eyeing up but will probably be next year possibly before it arrives and was hoping to protect as soon as open on Xmas day yes i should have got one ages ago but never did.

      I was thinking of this as can get local but not sure

        I bought my screen protector before the oled switch came. first thing I did when I got the switch was turn on hot shower in the bathroom, applied the screen protector the moment I took the plastic wrap off the switch. There is a very thin plastic film on the oled screen ( did not even notice it). DO NOT remove this. This is supposed to protect or hold the glass if it breaks.

          Thanks I wonder if anyone else noticed this and removed obvious this is Xmas gift so not checked it out

        I recently bought one of the amFilm protectors linked by Brakus and it is excellent. Easy to apply and hardly noticeable. Looks like if you order today on Amazon today you can have it on Friday 23rd (possibly location dependant).

          I’m in wa I don’t think it would get here in time as post to here has been crap due to derailments and floods i believe.
          If I knew I would get them by Xmas all good but I think there is very little chance of than now.
          I was going to grab the power wave one from jb match another store price for the oled yes not what I wanted but least I can protect his screen from day one it’s only $7

      I've had this one for a while. Going great. No issues.

  • CodeXD on 21/12/2022 - 11:20

    They're cheap af on ebay, 2 for $3.95. Just a random listing I found from searching on ebay.

  • tebbybabes on 21/12/2022 - 15:28

    Just chiming in to ask what exactly does the screen protector do? Is it to prevent scratches or to prevent the screen from shattering if in an accident?

    The only reason I ask is because the family has a had a switch since 2019 and it's used - not all the time, but not handled with kid gloves either. Last I looked at it, the screen was still pristine.

    Just installed this one last night. Very easy to install, comes with an alignment kit. It comes in 2 packs so you have an extra if you need one.
