For anyone who's not seen all the Paperlike ad's on YouTube - it was a kick-starter for a matte screen protector for the iPad that adds friction to the pen, so drawing and writing, especially taking notes, feels a lot more natural.

I have 3 sets, I'm keeping 1 and selling the other 2 sets. Each set comes with 2 screen protectors as well as the installation guide stickers, cleaning cloth, screen wipes, dust absorbers etc - that you need to install the screen protector.

Note: Paperlike.com currently has a single set listed as R484 - but this doesn't include shipping or customs. I paid 87 Euro for 3 sets and got a free shipping deal, and then a further R759 in customs. So my total cost was about R2200 for all 3 sets. I'm selling these a little under cost price as I'm including free shipping via PostNet counter to counter.

Item: PaperLike iPad Screen Protectors
Age: Brand New (I received them about a month ago - but they're untouched)
Price: R750 (for a single set - which includes 2x Paperlike screen protectors + cloth, screen wipes etc)
Warranty: N/A
Packaging: I'll put it in a hard envelope (like it was shipped to me from Germany)
Condition: Perfect - all brand new unused
Location: Newcastle, KZN
Reason: I'm keeping 1 set, selling the other 2
Shipping: I'll pay to ship PostNet counter to counter. I think there's a R99 option like that. If you want anything more expensive, like to your door, the cost is on you.
Collection: Sure - but I'm in Newcastle..lol

I've been using it on my iPad pro for about 3 weeks now, and I really like it. I use my iPad mainly for drawing for work (graphics and web design) and do illustrations in Procreate as well as note taking. The pencil feels much more realistic because it doesn't slide around like it does on the bare glass. There's even a very satisfying sound that sounds like paper. Take a look at YouTube reviews.

There is one small downside, because of the grain on the screen protector - it leaves a slight shimmer on the iPad screen that can only be seen when looking at bright white - like a blank page of a new document. I've pretty much stopped noticing anymore and I find the better stability and tactile feel of the pencil is way worth the cost of the added shimmer. Again - there are tons of reviews for this on YouTube, so you should take a look.
