You probably want the thinnest screen protector that you can find so that the pen will work correctly. Why exactly do you think you need a screen protector? The glass on this tablet is pretty scratch resistant. I have used mine for more than a year and many months and no scratches yet. If you are worried about travel scratches then get a cheap case. I use the Logitech keyboard case but it's not cheap.

At the beginning, I got an official Samsung screen protector. However, after Samsung replaced my screen due to a faulty one, they did not give me a new screen protector. I also cannot find one locally. Then, I bought one from a company in Korea. It is not glass. After a few months of use, my S pen is creating some scratches on the protector. Do you know what is happening? Is it time to replace the nip of the s-pen?

I would replace that tip. The hard rubber tip should not scratch gorilla glass.

Actually he was noting that the screen protector was being scratched.

You're correct Muzzy. I just read his post too fast.

One advantage of a screen protector is - go with Matte. Dramatically cuts down on the reflection on the screen (especially when working in a location that has back-lighting). I put a generic one on my Note IV and it's great (although getting scratched from my S-Pen, still it's tolerable) but the generic one I installed on my 12.2 cut down on the touch-screen sensitivity so much that I removed it after a couple of hours, I mean it was bad. I buy these protectors on eBay (like 5 for $1) and change them every so often. I used to pay to have that done (like $25!) but it's easy to do it yourself once you figure out the trix. Buy a dozen and then you've got a couple to sacrifice in the name of practice (or you might get it right the first time ). Location is everything, so place it well and tape it in place to hold it once it's good - then continue de-bubbling and smoothing.
