I put the filters on fairly easily. Bought my 7 year old a Nintendo DS lite for Christmas and realized quickly that we needed to protect the screens as my son plays with it a lot. Well, I purchased this protective filter based on other reviews and I have to say that I am very pleased. There were just a few very tiny air bubbles at the end that were a bit hard to get out, but other than that my son doesn't even notice that protective filters are on the Nintendo DS and he actually mentioned the same to me. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend.
I had to trow it way. Once I put filters right side up, It was impossible to use it.
I just opened, peeled it and it was stuck. I noticed it had a lot of air bubbles, it was hard to get rid off.
I want to tell everybody how important is to FOLLOW DIRECTIONS for this item. I tried to fix the problem, but it was too late.
And after just few minutes of using it my filter was dirty and scratched all over. Then I realized that my both filters were wrong side up.
Filters ware dirty, had marks and scratches and bubbles all over, my DS couldn't read my writing. Here goes my 6 bucks.
I was able to start over with one filter which I had applied a little off center. I have applied these to two DS lites this weeks and couldn't be happier.
I envisioned dust motes and bubbles galore. I carefully wiped the screens and peeled off the backing of the filters.
I was worried when I sat down to apply this filter. PERFECT.
Once placing the filter onto the screen it seemed to just meld onto it. I pushed out a few bubbles and it was perfect.
NOTE: I did apply these to brand new, never been used DS lite consoles so the only exposure the screen had to dust and fingers was when I opened the box. The filter easily peeled back and reapplied without any hassle.
Needless to say, I had so many bubbles that I carefully took it off and threw it out.I tried the bottom one, same results. I got this product free with my purchase of my brand new DS Lite. However, I have used protective covers for my touch cell phone, so I understand how they work. You get 1 try and that is it. I kept it. There are 2 protectors inside and a nice cloth (love the cloth).
The bubbles are probably because they did not fit on just the screen, but overlapped on my DS which resulted in air underneath. First off, the instructions were not in English. There is no "easy" way to put these on and they seem to result in bubbles galore everytime. Nowever, one protector is larger than the other one, so which one does it go on, I assumed the top so I started there. I applied it just like I did for my touch phone but these are super sticky. If they had fit just the screen, maybe they would have been okay, but eh, doubtful.The cloth was nice.
Trashed the rest.
This is a good product that serves its purpose. The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts is because the installation is not so intuitive. I spent some time to figure out which part goes where.
