Usually not much: the surface is smooth, and the coating helps reduce fingerprint smudges.

With a glass film, the key point is that tapping and swiping still feel natural.

upscreen Hybrid Glas Panzer-Folien has a hard, smooth surface and a coating designed to help reduce smearing.

A clean, dust-free installation matters most—then the touch feel typically stays the same.

Clean the surface, work dust-free, and smooth the film down slowly from one side to the other.

A bubble-free result mainly depends on preparation and a calm, step-by-step approach.

• Wash your hands and work in the least dusty place you can.
• Clean the screen thoroughly and finish with a dry, soft cloth.
• Peel off the backing and align the film along one edge first.
• Lay it down slowly and smooth from the center outward using a card or soft cloth.
• Let tiny bubbles settle briefly, then gently push them out.

upscreen Hybrid Glas Panzer-Folien sits between film and glass: scratch-resistant like glass, yet noticeably more flexible.

Tempered glass protectors are often the go-to choice when drop and impact protection on the go matters most, because they are stiffer.

upscreen Hybrid Glas Panzer-Folien is a glass film with a hard surface (9H) but a more flexible build. That can be useful if you want something thinner and more adaptable.

Classic PET/TPU films are the most flexible and good for scratch protection, but typically offer less impact protection than glass-based options.

It’s a plastic-based film with a hard 9H surface and a coating that helps reduce fingerprints.

The material is a thin film with a hard-coated surface (9H).

It also has a coating that helps reduce fingerprints and makes wiping easier.

The adhesive layer is self-adhering and can be removed again if needed.

It's best to use a dust-free room like the bathroom. A credit card wrapped in a cloth makes an ideal squeegee.
