I bought my Kompakt some months ago together with screen protector and case. It worked like a charme. Last week my phone dropped accidentially. It survived without a scratch, but the screen protector broke. So it did what it was designed for.
The new ones have a black frame. I think this is introduced to avoid the āambilightā, which was visible at the edges of the phone. I really liked this effect, but some of you did not. With the modified version, this edge light does not appear anymore.
@urszula would be good to update the shop pictures, if it is not too much work.
May I hijack the thread to ask a question about the screen protector ? I bought one, but was too afraid to put it myself because of the bubbles etc. So I asked a buy in a phone shop, but it seems he was a trainee and it ended up with FIVE huge bubbles and it looked pretty opaque so I guess he struggled to put, ahah !
Was so disappointing I removed it and put it to the bin
Any advice regarding the operation ? It seems you put it perfectly ! Iāll have to order a new one ! (meanwhile I always carry the Mudita super carefully in the provided white cloth bag)
Alsoā¦ Do I really need the screen protector ? I am extremely careful and always carrying the phone in the provided pouch, in its own pocket (obviously, never with keys
I never scratched my e-ink tablets in about 5 years (which I write on with a pen and which have no screen protection either).
@MicKitten I just noticed the same on the website today (and I donāt like it either, I liked the glow). Itās a bit hard to see on the product photos, but does it only cover the front of your Kompakt, or does it āfoldā around/over the edges? I specifically ask because the current cases fold just around the edges which offer additional protection when the phone is lying screen down. I wish Mudita Marketing had decided to keep them both, because I need to replace one (out if three) and then my stock of spare screen protectors is depleted, meaning I probably end up shopping for third party screen protectors. Fun detail: Iāve been on the Apple iPhone Express from day 1, have owned a model of every single generation, never ever had a crack in my screen protector. Now I switched to a Kompakt (well, three actually) and my main Kompakt has a crack in itās window within 6 months. Unbelievable and unexpected.
I managed to place my screen protector with no issue. Iām a bit worried about a slightly increased delay in typing, which already exists because of the nature of the screen. I accept that, but I hope the experience will not be too deceiving for me to have to remove it.
The material of the screen protector is more prone to smudges than the original screen, but having an eReader I find e-ink screens to be very prone to scratches, so I can only encourage to get that screen protector.
Especially because another fear mentioned here, is the ability to change screen in case of failure or break. I havenāt looked at it, but Iām pretty sure such screen is very rare to find. I really encourage Mudita to make critical spare parts available for purchase.
Finally, at first sight, I find the screen protector to be of good quality, and fits the screen really well. For me, it also fits well with the case.
