Protect Your iPad: 3 Reasons You Need a Screen Protector

If you are an iPad owner, chances are you dropped a pretty penny to get the sparkling, overly-functional device. Now you could be one of the lucky ones that received your iPad by entering a free drawing or have parents that give awesome gifts (like an iPad)! Whatever the case may be, your iPad is a valuable device. It is valuable in that it has about a million different uses and the fact that the price tag averages about $600.

It won't take you long to figure out, if you haven't already, that you need to take certain steps to protect your iPad. Neglecting to do so will surely result in a damaged and potentially ruined device. So how do you protect your iPad? Well, one of the best and most cost effective ways to protect the screen (which is basically the whole front side of the device) is with an iPad screen protector.

Let's look at the ways that an iPad screen protector works with an iPad:

1. Prevents Scratches

One of the most important features of any iPad screen protector is the fact that it will prevent you from scratching the screen of your iPad. iPads are extremely delicate and sensitive to touch, which is obviously seen when using the device. The screen is always being touched, and even sometimes tapped with increased pressure. iPad screen protectors are made to add an extra layer of protection so that your fingers and/or stylus are stopped from pressing to hard on the screen.

2. Prevent Smudging

No one likes trying to look at a screen through a layer of smudges and fingerprints. It can cloud up the screen so badly that it can actually prevent you from seeing what is on the screen. iPad screen protectors are made out of specific materials that don't attract smudging and fingerprints. You still may find a few here and there but you will see a significant difference in the cleanliness of your screen.

3. Apple Won't Cover Damaged a Screen

Do you think you can go without a screen protector because your Apple Care policy will cover it if it gets damaged? This is not true. Apple will not cover physical damage done to the screen because it is obviously a result of negligence on the user's part. Don't wait until it's too late to figure this out.

These are the three main reasons that you should spend a little money to protect your iPad. The cost of fixing damage to an iPad screen is so much more than the cost of an iPad screen protector!
