Green Onions Supply AG2-2013 Anti-Glare Screen Protector for 15-Inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display, 1 Pack (RT-SPMBPR1502)

For those that have seen the Apple matte/antiglare screen option for the 15", it's a thing of beauty, it really is. Even if you're a fan of the glossy and "true color" nature of the default MacBook Pro, you can't help but be in awe at just how wonderful that screen looks. The only problem: you lose the glass.I admit to being somewhat skeptical about this product, but I went ahead and ordered it anyway, as I need antiglare for my MacBook, since I'm constantly inside with Fluorescent lighting. The first thing I noticed was how nicely this was packaged; it comes in a large Amazon box, then in a long flat sleeve inside the box. The sleeve is of a high enough quality that I felt immediately better about the purchase. The film itself looks blue, but worry not; that's just the outer protective layers. The film itself is definitely transparent. Unlike the RadTech film, this was cut to the dimensions of the MacBook Pro's screen, and it is here where I begin my journey (i.e. explain why it's 4 stars and not 5).Know that the film does not go all the way to the edge of the screen area, and you will need to apply the film a very specific way if you want the best application.1: Run a hot shower for about 5-10 minutes. The goal is to get just a little bit of steam going. This keeps dust particles from getting in your way. Then shut off the shower. Stay there though, you're doing this within the humid (hopefully now dust-free) environment.2: Clean the screen THOROUGHLY. Mine was brand new, so I had no problems here. Dust if needed; I use towel that comes with the CleanDr 60107 01 LCD/Plasma Screen Cleaner  which works wonders for catching stray dust particles without causing a mess.3: Remove the tab that is labeled "1". This is the back and the side you apply to the glass. Step #4 below is critical...4: LINE UP THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE FILM TO THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN BEZEL, right up against the rubber outline. This is key. If you try to do it from the side, you will mess up. Do it from the bottom and it'll be easy peasy.5: Once applied, take a credit card or gift card or something, bend it in your finger so that one side is flat against the screen, and push any bubbles out towards the sides. Smaller bubbles may rub out on their own; that's fine. IF you still see bubbles, you got some dust trapped; you can remove and re-apply, but I wouldn't recommend it, as you might get even more dust on the back. It's up to you.6: Once you're satisfied with the results, peel off the tab labeled "2". This is the blue sheet and the final piece of the puzzle.When finished you should have a perfectly matte screen! You can then test the glare reduction against sunlight or even a lamp or something, and it makes a tremendous difference. I have to say that of all of the antiglare screens this one is the best, for two reasons. One, it's of a strong, durable quality, and two, it doesn't have nearly as much speckling effect to it - with some antiglare you lose a lot of the image quality due to some of the particles in the plastic that create color speckling. This has the speckling, but you can barely see it. It looks extremely close to Apple's version, but obviously better.So...why'd I nail it a star? It's a nitpick...but I think Green Onions should consider four tabs on each side. Because you have to line it up from the bottom in order to get it perfect, four tabs would have allowed me to apply it flawlessly. I applied it the first time and had a millimeter carrying over the rubber, causing a bubble near the edge that wouldn't go away. Thinking it was cut wrong, I took a small blade to it and trimmed a bit off. I then realized I had space at the bottom and realized that I was just slightly off. My fault, yes...but I would have liked to have had two tabs on the bottom of each side so I could have applied it a different way. The tabs right now assume you're applying it from the side, which as I mentioned, is not an easy task.Don't let my deviance deter you. This is the best it gets on MacBook antiglare. Don't pay Apple $50 to do the same thing you can do at a fraction of the cost. Pictures to come later.

I followed the "installation" instructions from the top review listed here. In other words, I1) cleaned the screen thoroughly, then cleaned the screen again with the very nice silk/anti-dust cloth that came in the package2) brought the computer into a small bathroom where the hot shower had been running long enough to fill the bathroom with steam3) Brought the screen protector, still with its covers on, into the bathroom4) Took the first protective cover completely off5) Very, very carefully lined the bottom right corner of the protector up just inside the beveled edge of the inside lower right corner of the screen. I had to peel it up and adjust it twice to get the angle just right - if your hands shake at all you won't be able to do this accurately6) Very carefully and gently spread the rest of the protector over the screen and then used a debit card to push out the bubbles. Don't press too hard or you'll tear through the film that goes over the protective cover7) When all was perfect, pulled the tab of the top corner off to reveal the anti-glare sheet. I had to hold the tip of the corner down with a finger while I was pulling up, because the anti-glare cover was coming up tooWhen all that was finished, I took the computer out of the bathroom to take a look. I still have three tiny specks of dust that got caught under the anti-glare protector. But unless the angle of the light is just right, I can't see the specks, so I'm ignoring them for now.This absolutely does fit MacBook Pro 15 inch aluminum unibodies. I was even able to keep the  Speck Products See Thru Satin Case for MacBook Pro 15-Inch Aluminum Unibody Only, Aubergine (SPK-A0472)  on while I applied the anti-glare sheet.The good news: There's less glare. I can use my computer without squinting and furrowing my brows.The bad news: There's still some glare. I can see a blurry reflection of myself even as I type this now. The second problem is that the screen protector dims the screen, so I had to set the screen brightness up to max to be able to see well. This uses more energy, obviously. That's not such a big deal while the computer is plugged into an outlet, but when I have to use battery power, that means the time I can use my computer has just been cut down. Not so great.All in all, if you've got a glare problem, this will fix most of it. There might be a better anti-glare protector out there somewhere, but I am happy enough with this one to stop looking for an alternative.

This product does not fit newer MAC Book Pros and there is nothing that would advise it on the product description.

Montaggio facile facile e senza bolle, ottimo.Vediamo con l'uso se scherma la gamma del blu a sufficienza oppure no.

Il est parfait fonctionne à merveille je ne pense plus du tout à ces soucis de lumière sur mon ordi par contre je ne trouvais pas à la bonne taille donc j'ai pris plus grand et j'ai retaillé.
