Summary: Horrible item EVER!
Comment: Never and ever buy it! This protector has super-low quality; and most important it's in blue color!? I know, as the screen protector it's supposed to be Translucent! Again, It is a kinda fake one made in china instead of made in Japan. After few mins trying and testing, I teared it into parts and threw it to my trash can. I don't even care that 7 bucks I spent... Good luck, buyer -_-\\\\\

Buy the right one made in Japan! Don't worry about reading japanese, all you have to do is so easy, just follow the picture instruction.

Enjoy ur NDS with original HORI protector, Have FUN!

Summary: No Problems with Touchscreen Filter
Comment: This is the third screen protector we've used, and it's definitely the best of the three. Both of the first two did seem to have a slight effect on the performance of the touch screen, but I haven't noticed any problems with this one. It went on with no air bubbles and covers the entire play area of the touchscreen.

Summary: The best filters I've used
Comment: I've tried several filters for my DS Lite. Some were hard to apply and invariably left air bubbles under the surface. Some negatively affected the sensitivity of the touch screen. This set of filters is the best I've used. As long as you follow the instructions (which are very clear) these filters virtually apply themselves. I simply laid the filters on the screens (after cleaning them!) and they smoothly attached themselves. No bubbles, no scratches, no smoothing required. I was frankly astonished, considering my experience with other filters. The touch screen sensitivity, as best I can tell, is not affected AT ALL by these filters. The screen feel is very smooth, and feather light touches still appear to register, so touch screen controlled games (like Meteos) play wonderfully.

I intend to stock pile several more of these excellent filters for future use, and that's about the highest praise I can give a product like this. I quite simply wouldn't want to have to use those other filters ever again after having used these.

Summary: Wonderful Filter--If You Follow Directions
Comment: This product was far better than I had dared expected.

If you have read the other reviews carefully, there are a number of skeptical reviews for this product. Because of this, I debated long and hard whether to get it. In the end, I decided that $7 was worth the risk.

Here are a few important advices:

-For this product to work perfectly, you MUST read the short 2 page manual that comes with it. Read and follow it carefully.
-You only get 1 try. Once you put the filler on, its there to stay. Even if there are air bubbles or any problems with it, DO NOT TRY AGAIN. It will definitely not make it better. Wait a while to see if it improves, if not, then you should probably just get a new filler.
-Since you only get 1 try, be sure to remove all dust particles. From my experience, I don't even notice the dust particles during game play. However, I can imagine it being annoying if there are too much dust.

There were 3 issues I was originally worried about:

1. The air bubbles.

When I first placed the filter on, there were immediately a lot of air bubbles (notably in the lower screen). At first I was rather disappointed because bubbles are obviously annoying. HOWEVER, after about 3 hours of game play, the air bubbles quite miraculously DISAPPEARED. ALL OF THEM. The filter will 'learn' to fit your screen. Don't even bother to push them out (which is what the manual suggests) because they will go away on their own. But you MUST wipe the screens completely. Don't reapply the filters. It will not make them better.

2. I read in one of the reviews that the lower screen gets scratched (/get marked) anyway even if the filter is on.

This is not true. I already had a few scratches on my ds before I applied the filters, and the filters actually canceled out all those scratches (they disappeared). I even tried to purposely make some scratches on the filter, but I haven't once succeeded. I have not removed the filter to see if there are any new scratches on the ds screen, but since the filler practically erased all of my original scratches (at least visually), I don't see a point in worrying.

3. "the green logo sticker they glue in the center of each protector" (from another review) that damages the screen.

If you read the manual, you will notice that this sticker isn't even on the filter itself. Both filters have 2 filters (one on each side) that originally protect it and the logo is on one of the disposable filter protectors.

This product is perfect. But for it to work, the manual must be read because if you even try to remove the filters, they will in effect be ruined.
