What screen protectors are available for the iPad Air on the release date?

I've seen these on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Apple-iPad-Ai...653&sr=8-1&keywords=ipad+air+screen+protector), but not much else.

Thanks!

I recommend BestSkinsEver as far as body skins go they are offering a preorder discount right now. I have tried numerous invisible shield, Skinomi etc BSE always last the duration of me owning it with no peeling. I get the body from them and then roll with a Power Support Crystal front.

I got the glossy option all around may not use the front though if I can get a discount on the Power Support crystal. The matte is to block out reflection/people snooping in on your iPad from a distance kind of blocks it out, the downfall is the clarity is not as clear. I would never throw matte on a Retina device the shield as is already degrades the bare screen a bit.

I use Xtreme Guard on my other devices, though only the rear protectors as I hate protectors on my screen. They are applied with a wet application but go on very easy and the end result is excellent. The are currently offering 15% off skins for Apple devices and search for their promo codes and you should find another promo code for 80% off--you can stack the promo codes.

Just got the rear protector for the iPad Air and another for the iPad Mini for just over $5 total, including free shipping. :D

I'm still waiting for this to be available on the UK Amazon store. I've got the same brand on my iPhone 5S.

Screen protectors for previous generation iPads will work with the Air, right? Isn't the screen + bezel the same size as previous gen. iPads?

I've got a TechArmor screen protector on my iPhone 5S and so far its been great. I'm going to put the same one on my iPad Air.
 
Thanks for the Extreme Guard info. I only got the back cover, for $1.70 will work fine to keep the iPad airy thin and scratch free on the back.

I don't use screen protectors much anymore, and If I did I'd only use Power Support matte, amazing screens from Japan, but pricey.

I usually get Power Support are these comparable and good quality without degrading the screen a lot? I like the price lol

I've not use the Power Support ones so I can't really compare. That said the Tech Armor one on my iPhone 5S is great. The screen seems no different then without the screen protector.
 
Do you guy know any brand has cheaper iPad Air back MATTE protector? bestskinsever is kinda expensive and I have no idea what does their matte back protector look like because they never have it before. Thanks.

Cannot recommend Tech Armor enough! My dog was a total pest while I was trying to put on my screen protectors so neither of them ended up being usable :mad: I emailed Tech Armor and within half an hour they wrote back saying they sent replacements....awesome!! :D
