Thanks for the honest feedback. Even if negative, it's always appreciated. I like that you tried to give us some props, even if you weren't able to find many. We're a pretty small team of people, but we're always trying to improve the Paperlike. So, we'll definitely take your input to heart as we continue to improve the product. I would state that, for the record, we don't pay for reviews. We do pay for placements in the videos of creators. We always ask for their honest feedback as well. Of course, it stands to reason that they may feel some pressure to make us happy due to the sponsorship. While not our intent, it makes sense. We also love to support great creators because think they deserve it. There are many positive reviews out there which we haven't sponsored. In some cases, RUclipsrs are affiliates for Paperlike, but are also affiliates for the other products they're reviewing. That all said, know that we are not deaf to this feedback. This is something we are planning to rework as soon as possible, and we continue to improve the product with each version of Paperlike. Keep the honest feedback coming and we'll keep improving. Thanks again for your work and content. We hope to earn a positive review from you in the near future.
Just like to say paperlike has made me use my iPad more for drawing with procreate, I enjoy using it and will get another after I’ve worn this one out.
Holy shit, I’m blown away by this video- a tech review channel completely unlike any of the ones I’ve seen on RUclips. You’re not overhyping anything, you’re not being dramatic about the problems with the protector- just a completely honest review based on actual usage of the product. Also, the dedication required to have that stupid line down the center of your iPad between the protectors is insane, along with that being a crazy smart idea and far better than the side by side comparisons most RUclipsrs do. Absolutely liking and subscribing- I don’t watch tech videos too often but when I’m looking at products in the future, this is where I’m coming.
I literally came here to say the same thing. I’ve used packing tape in the past, but this is genius. I can’t believe I never thought of this. IT’S LITERALLY SITTING ON MY DESK FOR THE CAT HAIR ON MY DESKPAD. 🤯
The paperlike might seem softer because they don't want to wear the apple pencil nib as much, that's another test you could do: which screen protector is best for the apple pencil
Okay so am getting my iPad air 4 next week and planned on getting the paper-like screen protector but obviously now I won't. Can you recommend me a good one for my iPad
As a student, this has been the most helpfull review of screenprotectors ive seen. i love that you compared multiple pens and also got a second opinion. It was also great to actually see the comparissons of scratches etc. side by side because many youtubers talk about it, but don't actually show it. Thank you so much!
I liked your thorough and well thought out review. I just have one suggestion: Have someone else install it and label each side A or B. It would add another level of objectivity to your review and it would be fun to see your reaction to the "reveal" of which product you prefer.
I appreciate the cool comparison between the 2 highest sought "paperlike" screen protectors. I ended up going with neither after seeing so many contradicting reviews and finding out that they don't last past a few months of use. I will continue my college notetaking with the glass screen itself. It does the job and I suggest to everyone to just get used to it as it'll save you money in the long run.
Great! Thanks for recommending an alternative. Been spending a lot of time searching. I appreciate the Nanodots for not throwing diffused colours, but I’m not happy with the Paperlike (2). It LOOKS way better than Paperlike 1, but I think they missed the mark on the paper feel. Actually I sanded my Paperlike with the finest grain sand paper I could find. Doesn’t look all that pretty, but it feels much more paper-like. Gonna definitely try out the other brand that you were recommending.
M no it's not needed for that purpose. only if you realy write alot and in small letters it would be worth the money for you. Any matted foil will do it for you. As i said ... who's not drawing, sketching and or designing with a 3D modeller has no "need" for the Paperlike and no benefit.
@@andre.slmartins it sucks because I do want to use my iPad for drawing but also for watching videos and editing... so I do want to use the paper like screen protector but I’m terrified of how much it’s going to affect the quality. I mean I can always take it off if it bothers me too much but I already spent a whole lot of money on it, so not using it would make me feel kinda guilty
I've been using Paperlike for more than 2 years. I bought it for note taking but covid forced me to deliver a bunch of online lessons (10-16 hours per week). For both purposes, I was satisfied with its performance and look. Mine is not scratched yet, even though my 8 years old son also uses it on a daily basis. Having said that, I still have the spare Paperlike (they send 2 for the price). I use my Ipad with a cheap Logitech pencil which also works well, and it's tip is still not worn out yet. Being a Paperlike user for 2 years and using it literally everyday, I disagree with your criticism. Different strokes for different folks I guess. (I have to add that I never tried any other screen protector on my Ipad.)
I was literally wondering why mine didn’t feel matte or anything and it’s because I accidentally took it off while taking the top part off 😭 thankfully it comes with a second one
Thank you for this amazing review!! RUclips lacks people making honest customer centered reviews... Can you make a video comparing more matte screen protectors on the paper feeling?

Thank you for the very genuine feedback! All of the other ones I’ve seen is all about the aesthetic, not the actual protector, or cuz they were all sponsored and didn’t want to say much :(
@@imthecoolest50 is a matte screen protector better than a regular one? I want to start using an ipad for notes and I honestly have no idea what protector would be easier to write with
@@shira1022 a matte screen protector will be better for writing/drawing cuz of the increased friction. From my personal use I don’t like the look as much cuz the contrast and overall brightness takes a bit of a hit, but if you need to take notes a lot it is worth it. The paper like probably not worth it. I used it for a summer class and that was it. It was pretty worn after 6ish weeks of use
I loved everything about this video starting from the fact that it's unsponsored to the fact that you have mohs scratch kit and you did the side-by-side test. And that unbelievably patient dog. Nicely done!
I think my favorite thing about this video was that when it comes back to you and Monty, the frame shows you both equally, as if Monty is your cohost😂😂
they sponsor popular RUclipsrs because they boost sale and boost their reputation this way. Same with Raycon, shit product (cheap chinese rebadged earbuds) or Raid: Shadow Legend (shit cashgrab mobile game). They dump more money into marketing (RUclips channels) than into their product.
I've seen friends use paper like, and it wears down the nib of their pencil heavily. On top of that it greatly reduces display quality and doesn't even feel that good writing on. I prefer writing on glass directly
I’m not sponsored but the paper like. I bough one with my own money and about to review it after 1 month of owning it. The one he installed was a knock off. The packaging from paper like that the ship it in is different.
Fair enough but drawing and painting with Paperlike feels great, wasn't accounted for here but I'm not familiar if other reviews are covering that angle
I love it how you gave a short answer of what you recommended at the start!!! It’s super useful for some people like me so that I know what to look for in the video! :D Great content.
Although it didn't come out well in the review, I'm actually pretty interested in the concept of the Paperlike itself. I'll be looking forward to what the company will bring out in the future.
@Serge Eskov I agree. If he’s like most people, an iPad Air does everything you need it to do. Nobody needs an iPad Pro except people who make a living through it
Just got an iPad a couple months ago and I was a little sad cause I didn’t have the money for a paper like screen protector. I ended up getting the bellmond one from Amazon and I thought it was great but there was always a little part of me thinking that I should save up for a paper like one. After watching this video it gave me clarity and I’m really happy I got the bellmond paper like screen protector.
So glad I saw this before I make the decision to buy! It’s so hard to find review videos that aren’t sponsored by the product being reviewed, so thank you! Definitely subscribing🙂
I have so much respect for you. You and your reviews are unlike any other tech review channel I’ve seen. I’m blown away by your attn to detail, thoroughness, and most of all, honesty.
"Is the paper like screen protector worth it!? Short answer no, long answer... Well watch the video" Me: you just gave me the sort answer and saved me 12 min tho... 🤷🏃
That’s what I like about him though. He doesn’t make you suffer through the video for his unbiased opinion. I mean, not that I suffer because I never even thought about testing it for things like “which pen and paper combo does it feel closest to.”
I’m an illustrator, and I’ve been using an iPad Pro for the past 4 years, and I have always used a normal glass screen protector. I’ve thought about getting a Matte one, but I just don’t want to sacrifice the screen quality. Plus, I’m perfectly used to glass, and have no problem drawing on it all. No complaints here!
omg i'm still contemplating if i should use the tempered glass one or not...im waiting for my ipad pro and apple pencil to arrive. dont u have issues with it? like when drawing or something??
@@eatingbaconnie honestly? Not really! If I really did, I probably would have tried the Matte, but I didn’t really see any reason to make the switch. And I especially didn’t want to, once I found out it reduces the screen quality!! It may take some some getting used to, perhaps. But once you spend a decent amount of time on it, it becomes second nature to you, so it’s not really a problem for me! God bless! Hope that helps!
I watched this video when I first bought my Ipad, around 2 years ago - and all I can say is thanks (that was sarcasm by the way) for making me suffer the crappiness that is the Bellemond screen protector. The first one in the pack was passable, though it muted the colours more than I was expecting. Then I had to replace it and boy, was it a different experience. There were scratches in the protector which never went away, and when I finally gave up and bought a Paperlike, it's like night and day. Who knew, there's actual guiding stickers and informational videos! And the screen protector itself is amazing. So anyone still reading this, don't be penny wise and pound foolish (yes, I'm old) like I was.
MobileReviewsEh I have always watch reviews before I bought technology stuff. I bought mous iphone case because your video looked very trustworthy. I think I’m gonna buy screen protector because of again.
I was so disappointed with my order. I fell for all these TECH RUclipsr’s recommendations. I guess they are being sponsored. Thank you for the honest review. I wish I had seen this video first. First, it took over a month for me to get it. Then, the installation was horrible. I’ve done this hundreds of times but I got so many air bubbles. I just threw away $40 bucks. Damn!
I used paper like and it did look scratched up after a few weeks. After taking it off, the screen looked so awesome! The paper like adds that matted look and fewer fingerprints. I don’t use my Apple Pencil a lot, so I went back to a clear screen protector. I just don’t like always having to clear the fingerprints on my screen. I think I have a fix. Based upon your review of all the iPad cases, I finally got a Magic Keyboard. The trackpad feature will decrease my finger swipes thus less fingerprints. LOL. Thanks for all your unbiased reviews. I also wanted to share that I also stick my old screen protectors on my file cabinets too. LOL
I like that you went out of your way to make sure your unpleasant experience with the Paperlike wasn't just user error. Like flipping the ipad for a while in case your left hand was pressing heavier or scratching more than the right. Also getting someone else's opinion about the feel.
I bought one because my parents had it on their iPads for a while, and my dad uses an Apple Pencil on it often but it never scratched. As it turns out, theirs was the first version of Paperlike, while mine was the second version. Yeah, mine scratched quite a lot haha. I use my pencil to animate, and you could see where I flick between frames and where I draw based on the scratches.
I too heard of Paperlike from some RUclipsr. I’ve had it for several months and love it. It gives great tactile feedback with the Apple Pencil and I have absolutely no negative impact to viewing my iPad Pro screen. I am notoriously rough on my devices and do not have a single scratch on the paperlike yet. I’m also very much screen protector installation challenged and managed to get the same paperlike protector on and off my iPad twice without a single bubble. The only issue I had was when I got my UAG case and putting the case on caused the paperlike to peel up because it comes so close to the edge of the bezel. I removed the protector a third time, trimmed it and reinstalled it. Third time was the charm and I did end up with a couple of bubbles. I contacted paperlike and they sent me another screen protector free. I was not paid to leave this comment and for all I know there are protectors out there that are cheaper and of the same quality. But I am completely satisfied with the paperlike and love their customer service.
Come on dude. You have for several months and not a single scratch? That's not even funny bro. I have scratches on THE GLASS IPAD screen after a couple of months and I'm not rough on it all. This is really sad advertising.
@@bakirev I have a noname screen protector and own my iPad for over a year and there are no scratches on it. I use mine everyday. What are you guys doing with your screens to get the scratches? xD
What the heck this is the most in depth and realistic review I’ve ever seen. All the work you did was insane and really gave a great representation of what to buy! Keep up this amazing content!!!
THE COMMENTS CHANNEL I’ve have my iPad Air 2 for 6 years, very minor scratches with no screen protector It might just depend on how you handle the device, though I’ve had no problems
Diphylleia Grayi no because it’s an older ipad, but even if I had used the Apple Pencil it wouldn’t have scratched. The screen is a hard glass whilst the pencil is a soft plastic
I'm not using an ipad but my tab does come with a pen, using it without a screen protector really does leave scratches... which makes me coming here to see about screen protector reviews, 'cause I'm thinking of buying screen protectors that has a paper-like texture
I like the dynamic of this duo. One is casual and enthusiastic. The other is refined and with a beard and tie, silently judging the product and his co-host.
Thanks so much for this. I’ve just upgraded my iPad, and having watched a bunch of iPad Pro videos, I’m soooo ici of hearing about Paperlike. I draw with pencils, and can’t imagine any screen covering making it feel similar. Some of the promos for Paperlike aren’t so subtle, either. I get the feeling some folks have built constructed videos around the product promotion, if that makes sense. Thanks for your integrity. Big kiss for Monty 🥰
Nice review, thanks. Anyone else notice the dog's reaction at the 10:26-10:30 mark? He totally understood the swearing! He looked like he feels bad! LOL
Those accounts are only promoting it because they were payed to do it or sent for free. Paperlike reached out to me and sent me 2 screen protectors this week because I’m a pretty popular artist and they wanted more recognition. It’s already scratched up everywhere. It’s horrible.
Great review. Wish I had seen a video like this before I bought it. I have had it for less than 2 months and it is already heavily scratched. Not worth the money and the long wait for Paperlike. Thank you for telling it like it is.
Great video! When testing which pen feels most like writing with the Pencil, did you consider that the type of the surface under the paper has impact on how it feels when you write on paper? In my opinion, a glass surface under the paper would best the way to test this. Lot’s of greetings, Dennis 🇳🇱
So I also have the paperlike on my iPad for a couple of months now. The pen does not wear because the paperlike is so soft, basically it will get scratchesbefore the pen will. I fully subscribe to everything being said in this review and I will be removing the paperlike. It basically ruins your iPad experience, especially when you also use it to read and watch videos, and I regret buying it.
I‘ve been using the first gen paperlike for two years now and didn’t notice any wear on the pencil tip (except some change in colour due to dirt/fat on the screen). PS: Can’t recommend the paperlike either, save yourself some money and just get a standard matte screen protector. I couldn’t tell the difference when comparing it to no-name protectors on other iPads.
Really appreciate the honest reviews. It’s sad when you look for reviews on accessories and 15 people all recommend the same thing but you know it’s all fake because they all say almost the exact same thing and act the exact same way. It’s like they are given a script that not only gives them the words to follow but the mannerisms as well.

I think my favorite thing about this video was that when it comes back to you and Monty, the frame shows you both equally, as if Monty is your cohost😂😂
Your fur baby is so cute, he sits there looking at you all the time...he really loves you buddy!!!
Your not the only one who doesn’t recommend it, I heard way too many bad things about Paperlike. Why some RUclipsrs get sponsored by them is beyond me
they sponsor popular RUclipsrs because they boost sale and boost their reputation this way. Same with Raycon, shit product (cheap chinese rebadged earbuds) or Raid: Shadow Legend (shit cashgrab mobile game). They dump more money into marketing (RUclips channels) than into their product.
BizzMRK I played Raid myself and yes, it’s shitty
I've seen friends use paper like, and it wears down the nib of their pencil heavily. On top of that it greatly reduces display quality and doesn't even feel that good writing on. I prefer writing on glass directly
I’m not sponsored but the paper like. I bough one with my own money and about to review it after 1 month of owning it. The one he installed was a knock off. The packaging from paper like that the ship it in is different.
Pretty sure my product wasn't a knockoff. Bought directly from Paperlike.
I've been seeing Paperlike sponsored videos everywhere but it's so nice to see an actual, honest review + a comparison!
Fair enough but drawing and painting with Paperlike feels great, wasn't accounted for here but I'm not familiar if other reviews are covering that angle
Mine is scratched like a mfucker after a week. Lol 😆 been drawing daily
My life's mission is to reach the same level of chill as Monty 😂
Excellent and thorough review! Thank you for all the time it took!
I love it how you gave a short answer of what you recommended at the start!!! It’s super useful for some people like me so that I know what to look for in the video! :D
Great content.
Thank you for including a TL-DR at the beginning of the video. For that, you've earned one like and a complete video playthrough.
Although it didn't come out well in the review, I'm actually pretty interested in the concept of the Paperlike itself.
I'll be looking forward to what the company will bring out in the future.
I don’t even have an iPad Pro or intend on getting one but I do like this guys videos
Thanks for the support!
@Serge Eskov I agree. If he’s like most people, an iPad Air does everything you need it to do. Nobody needs an iPad Pro except people who make a living through it
@Serge Eskov but some people can’t afford it
how about now? ipad pro 10.5 is cheap (and probably loses software support next year but who cares)
Just got an iPad a couple months ago and I was a little sad cause I didn’t have the money for a paper like screen protector. I ended up getting the bellmond one from Amazon and I thought it was great but there was always a little part of me thinking that I should save up for a paper like one. After watching this video it gave me clarity and I’m really happy I got the bellmond paper like screen protector.
0:54 Dog - "What is up? Why is he waving his arms like that?" 3:32 "I was told there would be snacks."
So glad I saw this before I make the decision to buy! It’s so hard to find review videos that aren’t sponsored by the product being reviewed, so thank you! Definitely subscribing🙂
Monty is such a good boy ❤️ he's really invested in this review 😂
I can’t find where to buy the bellomond one in the US anywhere. The link in the description didn’t work. Anyone know?
I have the same problem
Same
Same link didn't work either sucks cause I want it
Same
It’s out of stock that’s why it’s not showing up
I have so much respect for you. You and your reviews are unlike any other tech review channel I’ve seen. I’m blown away by your attn to detail, thoroughness, and most of all, honesty.
That doggo won the show! 😂 he stares at you like he's saying "bruh, nobody cares. Just stop"
“Now were going to take this ... and add the dust back to the screen.”😂
"Is the paper like screen protector worth it!? Short answer no, long answer... Well watch the video"
Me: you just gave me the sort answer and saved me 12 min tho... 🤷🏃
Aiden Snew same, but i guess i wanted to know more so i went ahead and watched it😅😂
The rest of the video is the "why" he didn't like it... obviously.
That’s what I like about him though. He doesn’t make you suffer through the video for his unbiased opinion.
I mean, not that I suffer because I never even thought about testing it for things like “which pen and paper combo does it feel closest to.”
"Now we use this... And add the dust back to the screen" I actually had to laugh as I 100% felt that
I’m an illustrator, and I’ve been using an iPad Pro for the past 4 years, and I have always used a normal glass screen protector. I’ve thought about getting a Matte one, but I just don’t want to sacrifice the screen quality. Plus, I’m perfectly used to glass, and have no problem drawing on it all. No complaints here!
omg i'm still contemplating if i should use the tempered glass one or not...im waiting for my ipad pro and apple pencil to arrive. dont u have issues with it? like when drawing or something??
@@eatingbaconnie honestly? Not really! If I really did, I probably would have tried the Matte, but I didn’t really see any reason to make the switch. And I especially didn’t want to, once I found out it reduces the screen quality!! It may take some some getting used to, perhaps. But once you spend a decent amount of time on it, it becomes second nature to you, so it’s not really a problem for me! God bless! Hope that helps!
Paperlike reached out to me and sent me 2 for free and it feels so much better drawing on it but it’s so bad at the same time 😭
I watched this video when I first bought my Ipad, around 2 years ago - and all I can say is thanks (that was sarcasm by the way) for making me suffer the crappiness that is the Bellemond screen protector. The first one in the pack was passable, though it muted the colours more than I was expecting. Then I had to replace it and boy, was it a different experience. There were scratches in the protector which never went away, and when I finally gave up and bought a Paperlike, it's like night and day. Who knew, there's actual guiding stickers and informational videos! And the screen protector itself is amazing. So anyone still reading this, don't be penny wise and pound foolish (yes, I'm old) like I was.
I was waiting for you . I don’t buy anything without watching your reviews.
:)
MobileReviewsEh see this was my feeling lol I should have waited lol
MobileReviewsEh I have always watch reviews before I bought technology stuff. I bought mous iphone case because your video looked very trustworthy. I think I’m gonna buy screen protector because of again.
I was so disappointed with my order. I fell for all these TECH RUclipsr’s recommendations. I guess they are being sponsored. Thank you for the honest review. I wish I had seen this video first. First, it took over a month for me to get it. Then, the installation was horrible. I’ve done this hundreds of times but I got so many air bubbles. I just threw away $40 bucks. Damn!
Damn!
+1
RIP
the dog at 6:27 : 'hmn I agree with that specific points tbh'
When he starts cursing, the Dog, Monte, starts to look so scared, LOL! How cute! 🤣
10:24 that dog be like: "what did I do sorry no🥺, don't be Angy on me?"
So cute
I love how your dog just sits there throughout it all
I agree, Paperlike doesn’t feel “like paper” when I write on it. It still feels like I’m writing on glass. Wish I hadn’t bought it.
I used paper like and it did look scratched up after a few weeks. After taking it off, the screen looked so awesome! The paper like adds that matted look and fewer fingerprints. I don’t use my Apple Pencil a lot, so I went back to a clear screen protector. I just don’t like always having to clear the fingerprints on my screen. I think I have a fix. Based upon your review of all the iPad cases, I finally got a Magic Keyboard. The trackpad feature will decrease my finger swipes thus less fingerprints. LOL. Thanks for all your unbiased reviews. I also wanted to share that I also stick my old screen protectors on my file cabinets too. LOL
I like that you went out of your way to make sure your unpleasant experience with the Paperlike wasn't just user error. Like flipping the ipad for a while in case your left hand was pressing heavier or scratching more than the right. Also getting someone else's opinion about the feel.
I bought one because my parents had it on their iPads for a while, and my dad uses an Apple Pencil on it often but it never scratched. As it turns out, theirs was the first version of Paperlike, while mine was the second version. Yeah, mine scratched quite a lot haha.
I use my pencil to animate, and you could see where I flick between frames and where I draw based on the scratches.
I too heard of Paperlike from some RUclipsr. I’ve had it for several months and love it. It gives great tactile feedback with the Apple Pencil and I have absolutely no negative impact to viewing my iPad Pro screen. I am notoriously rough on my devices and do not have a single scratch on the paperlike yet. I’m also very much screen protector installation challenged and managed to get the same paperlike protector on and off my iPad twice without a single bubble. The only issue I had was when I got my UAG case and putting the case on caused the paperlike to peel up because it comes so close to the edge of the bezel. I removed the protector a third time, trimmed it and reinstalled it. Third time was the charm and I did end up with a couple of bubbles. I contacted paperlike and they sent me another screen protector free.
I was not paid to leave this comment and for all I know there are protectors out there that are cheaper and of the same quality. But I am completely satisfied with the paperlike and love their customer service.
Come on dude. You have for several months and not a single scratch? That's not even funny bro. I have scratches on THE GLASS IPAD screen after a couple of months and I'm not rough on it all. This is really sad advertising.
@@bakirev I have a noname screen protector and own my iPad for over a year and there are no scratches on it. I use mine everyday. What are you guys doing with your screens to get the scratches? xD
@@aqua490 No scratches on the screen protector?
@@bakirev none that I can see
What the heck this is the most in depth and realistic review I’ve ever seen. All the work you did was insane and really gave a great representation of what to buy! Keep up this amazing content!!!
I’m the only one who likes writing and drawing with no screen protector? I like the way the glass feels with the Apple Pencil.💁
Yeah, but what about scratches?
I mean, wouldn't having some kind of protection be better for the screen on the long run?
THE COMMENTS CHANNEL I’ve have my iPad Air 2 for 6 years, very minor scratches with no screen protector
It might just depend on how you handle the device, though I’ve had no problems
prysis but you don’t use an apple pencil, do you?
Diphylleia Grayi no because it’s an older ipad, but even if I had used the Apple Pencil it wouldn’t have scratched. The screen is a hard glass whilst the pencil is a soft plastic
I'm not using an ipad but my tab does come with a pen, using it without a screen protector really does leave scratches... which makes me coming here to see about screen protector reviews, 'cause I'm thinking of buying screen protectors that has a paper-like texture
I love that you provided an opportunity for Monty to weigh in. His disapproving face told me everything I needed to know about Paperlike.
I like the dynamic of this duo. One is casual and enthusiastic. The other is refined and with a beard and tie, silently judging the product and his co-host.
Thanks so much for this. I’ve just upgraded my iPad, and having watched a bunch of iPad Pro videos, I’m soooo ici of hearing about Paperlike.
I draw with pencils, and can’t imagine any screen covering making it feel similar.
Some of the promos for Paperlike aren’t so subtle, either. I get the feeling some folks have built constructed videos around the product promotion, if that makes sense.
Thanks for your integrity.
Big kiss for Monty 🥰
i love the way the dog is just sitting there wearing a tie!
I just have a glass screen protector- And i LOVE how it just gliDes
Nice review, thanks. Anyone else notice the dog's reaction at the 10:26-10:30 mark? He totally understood the swearing! He looked like he feels bad! LOL
Those accounts are only promoting it because they were payed to do it or sent for free. Paperlike reached out to me and sent me 2 screen protectors this week because I’m a pretty popular artist and they wanted more recognition. It’s already scratched up everywhere. It’s horrible.
I’m hoping Paperlike will release a “Paperlike zamboni” to take care of the scratch problem 😂
Good editing, and thanks for testing side-by-side and for a whole month of usage!
I am commenting just after seeing the intro, the way you said it in the beginning, "in short No, in long well...." Great!!! This is what we need...
Finding honesty and truth in a time where no one has moral integrity is very refreshing.
Honest Honest Honest. Love your reviews. I liked the bloopers 🤪
Glad you like them!
Me watching this when my paper like screen protector just came in from amazon: 👁💧👄💧👁
How has your experience been with it?
Kommentarschreiber it wears out and it doesn’t feel very nice
@@florenceqv1060 thanks for your very quick reply. I am sorry to hear that.
I recently got my paperlike and I'm not impressed. Thank you for being honest.
I think poor Monty thought you were mad at him at 10:20. Awwww. He's adorable. Useful review BTW.
The dog be like:
Humans are crazy especially my owner.
He is talking with wall for 12 minutes straight.
Great review. Wish I had seen a video like this before I bought it. I have had it for less than 2 months and it is already heavily scratched. Not worth the money and the long wait for Paperlike. Thank you for telling it like it is.
Glad I'm not the only one.
Great video! When testing which pen feels most like writing with the Pencil, did you consider that the type of the surface under the paper has impact on how it feels when you write on paper? In my opinion, a glass surface under the paper would best the way to test this.
Lot’s of greetings, Dennis 🇳🇱
That dog is a national treasure
The way the dog reacted when his owner was swearing at the iPad in the BTS scene, he thought he was in trouble 🥺
right omg i was like 🥺🥺🥺
Who's the gentleman in the tie? He made some really insightful points.
What about pencil tip wear?
I second this question
I third this ?
So I also have the paperlike on my iPad for a couple of months now. The pen does not wear because the paperlike is so soft, basically it will get scratchesbefore the pen will. I fully subscribe to everything being said in this review and I will be removing the paperlike. It basically ruins your iPad experience, especially when you also use it to read and watch videos, and I regret buying it.
Sander M oh wow. Thanks for your input!
I‘ve been using the first gen paperlike for two years now and didn’t notice any wear on the pencil tip (except some change in colour due to dirt/fat on the screen).
PS: Can’t recommend the paperlike either, save yourself some money and just get a standard matte screen protector. I couldn’t tell the difference when comparing it to no-name protectors on other iPads.
Really appreciate the honest reviews. It’s sad when you look for reviews on accessories and 15 people all recommend the same thing but you know it’s all fake because they all say almost the exact same thing and act the exact same way. It’s like they are given a script that not only gives them the words to follow but the mannerisms as well.
I’ve had the icarez screen protector on my new iPad for about a month now, to keep it simple: it’s aight. 7.5/10
I'm here for the way the dog looks during bloopers 😂
Not all heroes wear capes. You answered all my questions and more. Thank you for one of the best reviews I have ever seen!
I love that the dog is listening to him too😊
