BELLEMOND | The Original Made in Japan Paper Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE (10.9", 2025) / S9 FE / S9 / S8 / S7 (11") | Matte Surface PET Film For Writing, Drawing & Note-Taking | 2 Set

The matte finish is wonderful! Writing on this screen protector really does feel like writing on paper, and it also enhances reading. I even like the tactile feel while typing on my tablet, though scrolling and swiping takes a little bit to get used too. Since I mainly use my tablet for note taking and reading research papers, it is perfect for me. If that's what you do with your S9, then I highly recommend this protector.A few other people have said this is difficult to install, but I did not find that to be the case. I followed the directions on the back of the box, and I watched the video for a few additional tips. It went on just like any other screen protector. It did take a little bit of working to work out the air bubbles, both before and after I removed the blue plastic. I think the whole process took maybe 5 minutes, and that was with peeling the edge back to pick up those last few grains of dust! The included cleaning kit works like a charm, provided you read the directions first.

If you're on the fence don't be. This is hands down the best purchase I made for my tablet. I'm a professional illustrator, and can recommend. Even after 10 hrs a day 5 days a week of solid drawing it hasn't lost its texture. I would recommend investing in spare nibs too. Those will wear out before this protector does. Application was a little finicky but I wouldn't call it worse than a normal phone. It's really just the size that makes it awkward. The strategy that worked for me was to work in the least dusty area I could, thoroughly clean the screen, then work slowly from one corner down to the next closest, then when you have one short side lined up slowly continue across the screen down the middle until you reach the opposite side, removing the backing as you go. Push any bubbles from the middle out very gently. If you're patient they will all go. If you try to apply the entire thing at once you'll end up in a world of hurt. The protector itself is on the thinner side, but protection isnt really what it was intended for. That is something else to keep in mind. If you're accident prone like me, a case is a must, but not all cases will work with this protector. Because it's so thin, it's very easy for certain models to pop up a corner and leave you with a mess of bubbles and dirt under said corner. Save yourself some heartache and find a case that doesn't go very far over the edges. If you take nothing else away from this/Best advice I can offer is to peel as you go and go slowly. You'll get there.

1st: Both of the screen protectors had fuzz all over them when I took them out of the package. I wasn't able to get all the fuzz off the outer layers and I found this out because it ended up under the protector once I finally got it lined up.2nd: it kept doing this weird thing where it would randomly stick to the screen of my tablet when I was trying to line it up. I did not have it actually on the screen trying to line it up, I was like 1/2 inch away. I've never had that much of a problem trying to line up a screen protector.3rd: Doesn't fit with a caseOther than the fuzz bumps, it seemed really nice. So if you have an environment where you can completely avoid all dust and they don't come with fuzz all over them, this screen protector would be great.

Great screen protector which may take a bit of time to get accustomed to. Firstly, the texture is matte and almost feels like paper. This is great for when you are using you S-Pen, it makes writing much easier. The matte finish has a very minor effect on the vibrancy of the screen, but something I don't really notice after using it for a while. It really does a great job of protecting your screen for scrathches in the glass, which is ultimately the function you are buying. With that said, this is a definite buy reccomendation!

It feel great to draw on but scratches easily and is a total bitch to apply. It also seems to smooth out over time, but I didn't really notice until over 80 hours of drawing, and its still a perfectly functional screen protector even after it smooths out a bit.I would also recommend you stay away from the hard metal nib replacements, in general, but especially if you have one of these screen protectors. It seems to accelerate the above mentioned smoothing considerably.

As with so many other screen protectors, this is a total pain to apply. Afterwards though, it's great! I use my tablet to take notes for class and this makes the experience so much nicer. A warning, it will absolutely chew up your stylus nuba but replacements are cheap enough so no biggie.
