Topic: Best New 3DS XL Screen Protector that doesn't have bubbles or scratch?

I'll be getting my repaired New 3DS XL back from Nintendo soon, and I'm looking for a new screen protector to put on it when it arrives. The previous one I had scratched very easily on the bottom screen protector and had lots of bubbles form under the screen protectors even after wiping dust off of the screens, so which one would you recommend that you have found works well?

Thanks!

Can anyone else recommend tempered glass to @Coolie? I would say tempered glass is the way to go. It's best clarity (better than films), good scratch resistance, and less likely to get bubbles than film. It's not fool proof, you still have to be careful not to get dust on the screen when applying (because you don't want to see dust stuck in there). But I don't have experience putting them on my 3ds xl. I don't know if glass is too thick to fit when you close the 3ds xl, if you put glass on the top screen. I do have tempered glass on my Switch, though.

@WoomyNNYes I had tempered glass on the top screen, which didn’t have scratching issues. It was the bottom screen, which due to the need to use the touchscreen can’t use tempered glass, that had scratching issues. Does the bottom screen protector in that set work well against scratches?

@Gwynbleidd Tempered glass screen protectors usually come with a non-glass film for the bottom screen though to offer some protection; does one of the ones you mentioned include such a film, and if so, does it at least remain relatively scratch free?

@Gwynbleidd Do both of the bottom screen films of those brands seem to keep up at least somewhat well? The bottom screen film I got with my last screen protector scratched within minutes, so that’s why I’m trying to do a bit more research this time around. Thanks for the help!
