Anybody with the new iPad Pro notice that they get less fingerprinty? Ever since the Pencil was introduced the oleophobic coating on the iPad has not been nearly as good as the phone, but my new OLED screen is faring much better than my M2 was. Not sure if they said anything about improving the coating or not, but it is a nice bonus.

It depends how I use mine. I’ve seen more or less depending on what I’m doing. It does seem a little bit better than previous models.

Yes, mine seems to have less prints after use. I have still not cleaned the screen. I am only going to use isopropyl and see how it hows up.

I have the nano texture version and it 100% still gets fingerprints like the standard/glossy version. However, they don’t seem as noticeable to me, which makes them far less bothersome.

I only have the 2017 iPad Pro to compare, but yes, this has improved quite a bit for me.
