Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ Enhance Your 3DS Screen with Hyperkin Screen Protector by Derek Evans

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't fit properly and is difficult to install.

Hyperkin 3DS screen protectors are among the worst screen protectors I have ever used. Not because the material itself is of poor quality, no, it is of very good quality. That's because it's too big to fit on the top screen of the 3DS. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't fit the damn thing in without the other two corners. After trying many times and finally getting a screen protector to show my efforts, I gave up on delicate things. It was already attracting particles with its static cling, so I just wanted to see if I could even put the damn thing on without worrying about what was stuck underneath. And yet no luck - in fact I notice that it is not only too long, but also too high. "Easy to use" is my butt. So I'm stuck with a screen protector that doesn't fit my screen, with lots of air bubbles that won't go away from the lint and dust clinging to it. How sweet. But wait! This item is advertised as washable and reusable! Holy cow! BUT. This item comes without WASHING AND DRYING INSTRUCTIONS. Everything I used to dry the protective film for the second retry left lint and hair. Microfiber towels included. So after washing it looks ugly. Big. Oh, and air drying doesn't work - this static cling just sucks up the dust before it dries. All of this, plus the outer camera protectors, are very difficult to apply - just peel off one layer to start applying and they fall out of the plastic, and I found it impossible to remove the second layer afterwards. After that, the touchscreen protective film works perfectly. It's amazing. Avoid them and use Hori screen protectors. The application method is much better and hassle-free - you'll almost always get it right the first time and you'll never have to fiddle with it again. The only reason they were bought was for comparison and they failed miserably.
