BELLEMOND | Kent Paper Screen Protector for iPad Air 11” (M3, 2025 / M2, 2024) |Smooth Surface PET Film for Sketching & Note-Taking | Made in Japan | 2 Set

My original review got removed for something specificI really like this, I came from the magnetic paper protector of same brand with under a glass protector. I was able to work with it. Magnetic version is thicker a bit cloudy but I was able to see well and colors were fine. After coming back from a trip thought I’ll try this in pernament way since I never experienced it and it is popular, always shut down going pernament in paper protector way because I worried that it’ll have less screen protection, thought glass is stronger which I kept it for 3 yrs, until few days ago.So now that you know my background. Hey the pernament way- offers better and more benefits!! Overall better choice. The other way if you reeeeally love the glass display, you might have to clean up the dust if you travel often with it though, but dust didn’t come till many months for me, a review pointed about it. But but… once I switched first thing I noticed oh wow my screen is more awake by 1-2% and quality stood out a bit, specifically at night.I didn’t lose screen quality, it leans to the glass lane but with a tint of paper texture layer ( not that it’s just like the glass one) it’s pretty good to me.For me this bellemond paper Kent protector is perfect, maybe brightness shows up a bit more than the glass protector or maybe its just blue light protectionThe only cons: Touch gesture kinda wee bit slow compare to glass and with the magnetic together but fast enough. I’m willing to accept this sacrifice over everything else positive and amazing.The installation is the other negative . On YouTube I watched: “Text&Tullip Art studio” they helped me installed it, best video for it. You will need it specifically if your pull tab is backwards from where you glue starting from the camera. (That’s my tip)Overall best paper protector is my first and since I seen the two other ways this absolutely does not make your screen worst, if your very about that, this is like day three that it’s glued so can’t comment on scratches but it feels strong and premium like if it was a 20-30$ rival of the famous brand. But yeah make sure to follow that video from that YouTuber, they will make sure you don’t have bubbles !! Happy installing!!Oh one more thing, I’m a computer art user and for a year a lot of brushes didn’t work out for me, until I kept trying found a few, but now with this protector it makes more likeable brushes and I love my Apple Pencil reaction to this, I have two different tips the official Apple and Amazon, the Amazon one sounds like almost runs out on wear but that’s just me used to how it sounded in the magnetic, it’s ok. But with the Apple ones I love them 😍😍 and the Amazon ones makes, as awesome experience too they’re my favs with the magnetic protector, i don’t remember the shop I got them at rn. But I just brought from another shop to try and experiment, I noticed that different devices can influence brushes or the technology or your hand pressure.I had two Huion, two wacoms and currently xp pen monitor 22 inch and thisSo you can trust me.

FOR BUBBLE-FREE APPLICATION:(Ensure your device is at least splash-proof or waterproof first…)- Put water into a spray bottle with a teeny tiny bit of gentle dish soap or baby shampoo and shake vigorously to mix.- After cleaning your screen with the included wipe & cloth, spritz it with the soapy water.- Remove the screen protector backing and spray soapy water on the sticky side as well.- Place the soapy-wet screen protector on the soapy-wet screen.- Arrange it until perfectly aligned, and scrape the bubbles out.- Allow to dry before use.This makes the process MUCH easier, as the water + surfactant combo gives you ample time to align the film with your screen, makes the bubbles a snap to push out, and helps “wash out” any trapped dust.___I use a Mobiscribe Wave, a 7.8” e-ink tablet. Every accessory for it is out of stock, likely due to the business preparing to shut down, so I couldn’t find a screen protector that was the right size, but the screen is made of a slightly flexible plastic (not glass), so it’s very easy to scratch. Thankfully I have a paper cutter that can manage thicker materials :)I tried a few other brands of similar papery films including paperlike and another one I don’t remember the name of. The former was too smooth and peeled up at the edges easily, while the latter felt like sandpaper, gritty enough to sand down a Staedtler Mars Jumbo EMR nib in a day or two. Both also felt thin enough for me to get nervous using a ceramic or titanium nib to write.I ended up getting this one (Bellemond Kent, iPad Mini size) after reading that it’s made to feel thicker than others. It’s a little overpriced, but it’s worth it for me, especially given that I don’t have to change it very often (and I was more confident about getting it right after discovering the soapy water trick online).Two aspects go into making a screen protector feel similar to paper: the texture and the cushion. Preference is obviously subjective, but I really like that Bellemond Kent has both a matte texture & plush, notebook-like feel (vs the thinness you’d feel writing on a single sheet of paper on a hard tabletop), not to mention it actually works to protect my screen from scratches, regardless of nib material :)Worth noting: I did also test the original version from Bellemond, but I didn’t like it as much due to the lack of aforementioned “cushion,” apparently only in the Kent Paper variant.I’ll be back for more when I need it :)

I really can't recommend this screen protector enough. Paperlike screen protectors have always had way too much grit for me, but this one had the perfect amount. It feels like writing on pencil sketching paper. The level of grittiness works really well because it's enough for me to feel like I'm writing on paper, while also not being super hard on my Apple Pencil tip. I've been using these screen protectors for about two years now and I've only had to change the tip of my pencil once. I will say though, that I always struggle with putting these on my ipad. It's great that the pack comes with two screen protectors, because I always mess up the first one or get bubbles under it, and have to redo it with the second. I still think it's worth the price, because once I get one on correctly it's easily the best screen protector I've ever used.
