I tried Jsaux’s new anti-glare Switch 2 screen protector, and it revealed a glaring bug

I have a cockroach died in my ceiling, and I only noticed it at a Switch 2 screen protector which, ironically, is supposed to tame the reflections. The protector in question is a pre-production sample of the JSAUX Obsidian AR screen protector, which arrives in October for $ 21.99.

The company says it is better than standard screen protectors because it has a similar physical steam (PVD) coating found in the Apple Studio display. It is supposed to reduce dazzling while maintaining a brilliant appearance – an ideal combination for players, because you cannot always choose where you will play games.

In reality, this pre-production screen protector has easy-to-miss minor improvements. Obsidian ar slightly Reduces the intensity of reflections that strike the screen that could otherwise distract me during the gameplay. However, I noticed these differences in the photos more than I did by actively using Switch 2.

One thing that I had the misfortune to notice when I played my Switch 2 with the equipped screen protector was the roach of my ceiling. This little suction cup has probably died for some time and I just noticed. To defend JSAUX’s claims, he makes the LED tube daring illuminating the Gardon trapped a little more gradator and more difficult to choose, but not enough to wipe this meeting of my memory.

I will not go so far as to say that the Obsidian argument is not worth your money, having tried only a first version. Everyone’s tolerance for dazzling is different, but I am skeptical that the differences deserve to be paid compared to cheaper alternatives. To repeat, only one of these protectors will cost $ 21.99 while you can get a pack of three good -ended glass protectors for less than $ 10.
