Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector for iPad Pro 12.9-inch

A trusted name when it comes to smartphone and tablet cases and screen protectors, Spigen's tempered glass protector is perhaps the best choice right now. It is rated 9H on the Moh scale of hardness and sports oleophobic coating for less glare and fingerprints on your iPad Pro's display. To make it easy for you to apply this Spigen screen protector, it comes with an intuitive auto-alignment installation tool out the box too.

JETech Screen Protector for iPad Pro 12.9-inch

This Amazon's Choice screen protector is also rated at 9H and is made out of tempered glass. Similarly to the Spigen one above, it will protect your iPad Pro's display from daily wear and tear. Although it's cheaper, it doesn't come with an installation tool. But if brand recognition isn't important to you and you've installed a screen protector before, this one shouldn't be trouble and is a good, affordable alternative.

BERSEM Paper-feel Screen Protector for iPad Pro 12.9-inch

If you're an Apple Pencil user, it is worth investing in a matte paper-like screen protector like this one. "Paper-feel" screen protectors aim to simulate the sensation of writing on paper instead of glass, but on the downside, they might have an impact on your movie watching experience. Thus, only get a paper-like screen protector like this one if you're really into using your Apple Pencil, be it professionally or as a student who handwrites everyday.

Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector for iPad Pro 11-inch

For your 11-inch iPad Pro (2021) we would again recommend a Spigen screen protector for the best experience. Although this protector is more expensive than other options, Spigen is known for making quality cases and screen protectors, and this is one of them. Rated 9H on the Moh scale of hardness and covered with oleophobic coating for reduced glare and fingerprint smudges, it will protect your iPad Pro's display from daily scratches and wear.

Caseology Tempered Glass Screen Protector for iPad Pro 11-inch

If you're after a more affordable screen protector for your 11-inch iPad Pro (2021), this one is a good choice. Like previous ones on this list, it's rated 9H, has oleophobic coating and even includes an installation alignment kit.

Tukellen Paper-feel Screen Protector for iPad Pro 11-inch

If you're looking to create professional art on your 11-inch iPad Pro or are using it as a student, doing a whole lot of Apple Pencil writing, a screen protector like this one will be a good choice for you. Tukellen's paper-feel screen protector is among the Amazon's Choice options, offering scratch resistance, anti-glare and of course, aiming to make your Apple Pencil experience feel more like you're writing on real paper, rather than glass.
