Not only does this great tablet finally adopt USB Type-C for charging and data transfer, but it also supports the upcoming iPadOS 17. Though, this iPad, like other models, has a relatively delicate display that is prone to scratches and cracks if mishandled. That's why we advise you to invest in an iPad 10 screen protector as an additional layer of protection. And to help you out, we've listed some of the best options currently available.

The amFilm tempered glass screen protector will protect your iPad's display from accidental drops and scuffs. It comes with a cutout for the front-facing camera, so you don't have to worry about clarity. This pack also comes with two screen protectors and an installation kit.

This PET matte screen protector eliminates glare on the screen, so it's perfect for those who find themselves using their devices in bright light or outdoors. The matte finish also gives the screen a smooth feel while keeping the fingerprints at bay. You get two screen protectors in a pack, but there's no alignment frame.

I personally would recommend the amFilm Glass Screen Protector, as it has a bit of everything. It is reasonably priced, has a solid build, and comes from a reputable company.
