Topic. I will try to be very careful with it, but do you use a screen protector or not? Is it a wise purchase?

Not really, just make sure the protectors are for PSP, it's always best to have one or two.

if you scratch the screen carelessly... just polish the screen with car polish liquid, then use car wax to wax it... should be working... after you try this, let me know the result.

or you just buy a new psp, it's so cheap now.

^ lol, reminded me of the person who put their 360 in the freezer.

Yeah, you should get a screen saver, it is certainly worth the price. I don't think one brand is better than the other, just make sure it will fit on your PSP screen.

Yeah, Ive used one for a good month or 2 that ive had my psp. It works great and has already saved it from many scratches and blemishes. I use the Hori one btw but it shouldnt matter too much which brand.

It's best to get one. They have the thin ones, that just stick on, and the plastic ones, that you slide one. Either one works well.

That really, really depends my friend.

Personally I don't use screen protector, I have in past for about a month and I found it not needed in my case. I keep my PSP in solid case away from harms way.

I clean it when I use it with specific fiber cloth that actually comes with PSP screen protectors for about 1.99$.

I do suggest anyone who doesn't take good care of PSP to actually have one, they are very inexpensive and they will protect from dust, scratches, finger marks, etc..

It depends on a user, I haven't had need for one.
