    Any Success Removing the Matte Film from Apple Cinema HD Displays?

    I have an A1082 23" Apple Cinema HD Display. It is my understanding that there are no such thing as 'matte screens', just glossy screens that either have or have not had a matte film adhered onto them. There are numerous success stories of people using listerine (and similar) to break down the...

    Clear Matte Skin for 2020 MacBook Air

    I just ordered a 2020 MacBook Air and was looking for a clear matte skin for the top/bottom case, sides, palm rest, and trackpad. I saw one from BestSkinsEver, but it’s for the 2018-2019 MBA.

    iPhone 11 Pro What will the glass back of the iPhone Pro feel like?

    I’m excited for the matte glass finish on the iPhone Pro but I have no idea how it’ll feel. Do you think it’ll have more grip in-hand compared to XS? Will it feel very similar to the iPhone 5? Has anyone ever held something with glass of a similar finish / texture?

    iPad Pro Matte Screen protector w/o distortion? (For Apple Pencil)

    I just bought the iCarez screen protector and the distortion is really bad, but it feels great to use Apple Pencil on it. I took it off right away because I’m really partictuar about the screen clarity. On White screens, everything was spots off the rainbow. Anyway, what should I buy instead...

    I regret getting the Gold iPhone 7, what should I do?

    I have a Gold 128gb 4.7 inch iPhone 7, and I really regret not getting the Matte Black. Should I just deal with it until the iPhone 8, or buy the Matte Black? If I do buy a new phone, I'll probably buy the Plus... What do you guys think of the Gold color?
