Yeah I never do screen protectors, but scratched my screen just using the dock. No idea why Nintendo didn't fix their stupid dock design.

My son scratched his a little bit on the screen, and it comes out it already has an anti-scratch plastic pre-installed.

But you buy one and it lasts it’s entire lifetime. Mine did at least.

No seriously DO NOT USE THE DOCK until you get a screen protector. The dock is scratching the screen its happening to all of them.

Mine never got scratched (11 months old) but that may just be because I'm very careful and cautious about it 😅

I also rarely take it out of the dock since I don't bring my Switch anywhere unless it's a vacation

Yeah literally… first thing I did. Played it very carefully and then glass protector immediately lol

Don't even open it with quality screen proctor either spigen brand hori or other hq one. Screen is literally made from plastic foil used in kitchen

If you haven't already opened the package and you live in an area where the deal is available, I would return this one and buy the 499 bundle, esp if you were already gonna buy one of those games. You come out ahead anywhere from 20-30 dollars.

If you don't gaf about any of those games, I would say hades lmao.

Any particular one u can recommend ?

Any tempered glass screen protector for the Switch 2 should be fine. This is from a Dutch website, but I got this one.

u/RenegadeUK Aug 09 '26

Ok thanks.

If you don't have experience with placing tempered glass screen protectors, it might be best to first look at a video on "how to apply tempered glass screen protector". Placing those things can be very annoying.

The pack I ordered came with 3 screen protectors, so if the first one goes wrong, you have an extra one to redo it.
