I do not. I just don’t drop the thing. Hard to explain, but it mostly steam plays my pc in various locations of the house.

I use one because I hate it when there are small scratches that can happen every day. With a protector you just remove it and everything is perfect.

I don’t use one becous ethe first one I got was a waste becouse I had to rma that steamdeck and the second I meesed up the application with particles under it and gave up as I don’t really get in any situation where it can scratch any way so why bother

I bought Nintendo switch oled and two weeks after having it, I was clumpsy enough to scratch the screen with my mac charger. The scratch was so annoying, I decided to sell it and bought a new oled lmao. So yes, when I got my hands on Steam Deck, putting a protective screen was first thing that I did, I didn’t want to go through this again

I see people post about they accidentally drop their deck and the screen protector cracked but their actual screen are still good, you will regret after thing happens… like 10-20$ protector for an 400-600 device I think it worth it (I put my protector like 6 time , 3 pack of protector because for some reason always has very small or tiny bubble/ dust inside)

I don’t use a screen protector. I’ve had my Deck for over a year now, travel frequently with it, and there are no visible scratches on the screen.

I had one briefly when I first got the Deck, but it made everything on my 512GB anti-glare screen blurry so I took it off, haven’t looked back since

Im raw screening it because i had the anti glare deck and was worried how it would interact with a screen condom

Added security. Why not? It takes a minute to put on and can save from an accidental scratch.

Yes because now I’m trying to sell it and the protector (thankfully) saved me from quite a few small scratches. It’s all fun & games until you accidentally put your metal phone or keys on top of it in the dark

jsaux anti-glare screen protector works great for the 64gb deck, couldn’t be happier

I don’t, I can’t imagine a scenario where I’m careless enough to scratch the screen. If I’m not playing it, it goes right back into the case. I never put it aside for a few seconds. Either it’s in my hands or in the case even if for 10 seconds.

I never use screen protectors. The touchscreen isn’t very responsive, and adding a screen protector will only make it worse. Plus I think screen protectors are ugly af.

I don’t like screen protectors even for things where I should definitely have them. Not even my phone has one.

With the Deck in particular, I just can’t see it ever coming in handy. It is literally always either in my hands, sitting in a secure location charging, or in its case. Even on the off chance that I drop it, the odds are low that it will fall in such a way that it damages the screen.

If it ever does break, I’ll just replace the screen. It’ll take more effort and be more expensive, but I prefer that risk over dealing with screen protectors.

Nope, I only put screen protector to my phone as it goes to my pocket but I cannot think on any scenario where my steam deck screen get’s scratched

Could anyone let me know if getting a screen protector for the oled 1tb model would still be worth it? I was thinking of getting the spigen screen protector.
