How to raise your blood pressure
I like to think of myself as a capable person but this product has made me question my abilities. Attempt one saw me chasing air bubbles around the screen, peeling it back to start again only to find every dust particle in my house had now congregated underneath. No bother, it's a 3 pack so on to attempt number two. Slower this time as less cocky. Carefully applied at snail pace. More air bubbles. Try to push them out of the sides but they accumulate into one giant bubble. Attempt to peel back to remove it. Screen now looks like bubble wrap. Okay third attempt I ask my daughter to have a go. She's young and confident. Good start, seems to be going on without much problem. The photograph attached to this review is her attempt. Packet subsequently stamped on and thrown in bin. Deep breathe and decide I don't need a screen protector. It would be less stressful to have the screen replaced!

Incorrect size for HD8 (2017 version)
The screen protectors are the exact same size as the screen size, this means the raised edges of the screen prevent the protector from sticking to the screen well.....I wasted the first one then had to trim down the others just to make it usable.....there is no reason for the protector to be the exact same size as the screen, a few mm's on each side would have been fine....would ask for a refund but can't be bothered...buy cheap buy twice

I've usually found this brand to be brilliant, but I guess there's always an exception
I've usually found this brand to be brilliant, but I guess there's always an exception.....As other reviews have mentioned, very very slightly too big; as a result, the edges touch the frame of the tablet, so they don't lie flat and have air under them. Again as other reviews, air bubbles a major problem too. Trying to peel back to remove them makes the problem worse.I've fitted numerous screen protectors without problems to devices over the years, and these have undoubtedly been the worst. All three in the bin.

Go to Tesco. Grab yourself some cling film.. it's better
Terrible from start to finish!! It was returned within 5 mins.Ordered for an asap delivery as I wouldn't give my son his Kindle without glass protection on.. got email on the day it was due saying it was delayed. Already guessed as all my other items arrived without hitch. Given the next day (today) .. at least it arrived I suppose..Sat down and opened box. All looked great, as I stood up I bent the folder.. (I've done this before and cracked all 3 brand new glass protectors.. so I was naturally worried.No damage!?.. they are just scratch resistant films of plastic! And unsatisfactory at that!!No wet wipe in there and I suppose I wouldn't have thought to look as EVERY screen pack adds wipe..A flimsy attempted scraper and that's your lot.. £5.So tried to put on. I put these on day in and day out!! I have it down to a fine art.. this one.. air bubbles, slipping about and a General cheap feel. Getting bubbles out and making a right mess of it, low and behold.. Scraper snapped.. then finally got it straight.. no stick!! Straight on the app.. Returned!!So my advice..?Go to Tesco. Grab yourself some cling film for 99p and know you will be getting better

Just a bit too big to work...
They just don’t fit.I struggled with 3 tablets for 2 hours. Bubbles were a pain, but this is a hazard of a big protector.The main issue was after you’d lined it up to set across straight, even when pushed up against the bevel it would go on fantastically and sit on top at the other side.Then you put the kids case on at it crunches the edges and you have to get something flat and strong to poke it back under. But there’s still a bubble...Just 1mm off the dimensions and it would sit flat and it would be much easier to put on.I now expect these to be picked off by the kids in days...

Great if applied properly
I usually stay away from these as they do my head in as they always have bubbles or they dry up round the edges. I didn't apply the first one properly but the second one went on great which I was really surprised with as I'm rubbish at applying these. This is the first ones I've bought for my Kindle and I'm really happy with the results, you don't even notice that my Kindle has anything on it and there's no problem using the touch screen no loss of touch problems at all. I highly recommend these, I might even buy one for my phone and I definitely would buy again for my Kindle in the future.

Incorrect size for Kindle HD 8 2017 Version
The screen protectors are ever so slightly bigger size than the screen size, this prevents the protector from adhering to the screen preventing correct fitment and adhesion. Wasted the first protector then cut down the size of the others to make them fit. Very poor protectors also as feel sticky to the touch once applied.

Could be better.
I m pretty good at applying screen protectors , however these are no good , They do not stick properly to the tablet and the bubbles are impossible to get rid off . I just have to buy another make of protector.
