Do not get me wrong: using matte screens is a basic requirement and the difficulties that exist in order to finalize purchased devices to make them ready for use is shocking.

To equip your devices with a matte film, it seems to me currently that you should look for technicians' shops (mobile devices repairs etc.) that equipped themselves with plotters and professional grade matte films. Those films that can be moved for some time after being placed on the glass - those not immediately adhesive - are those I am calling "professional grade".
See here my latest rants and headaches on the matter.
Thanks for the insight. I will look into the latter possibility although I would be positively surprierd if local phone stores provided such a service.

On the issue of scratches, I still own a Yotaphone 2 with a matte EPD and it has very little scratches despite not always having enjoyed a gentle treatment
