I installed Dbrand’s Prism 2.0 on my Switch 2 and used it for a full week of daily play. The tray made alignment trivial, the glass looks invisible once fitted, and the coating keeps prints at bay. It is priced higher than most protectors, but the kit, clarity, and finish justified it for me.
Setup and fit
The install took me three minutes. I dropped the console into the plastic tray, peeled the anti-dust layer, lowered the glass, and pressed the center. The edges sealed with no bubbles. The kit includes two pieces of glass, cleaning wipes, a microfiber cloth, and dust stickers, so I had a backup in the box. The protector sits edge to edge without touching the bezel lip or the dock frame. I slid the console in and out of the dock ten times to check for drag and never felt scraping. Dbrand claims the glass is Mohs 7 hardness and ships an alignment tray and dust-eliminating peel layer, which matches my experience with the install and the final fit.
Nintendo warns that the Switch 2 ships with an anti-scattering layer on the display. I left that factory film on and placed Prism 2.0 on top. Stacking caused no touch issues, and the image stayed clear. If you own a new unit, do not remove the pre-applied film. Add tempered glass on top instead.
Clarity and touch
Once installed, I could not see a color shift or sparkle. Bright scenes in Super Mario Wonder and the neon UI in the eShop looked unchanged. Touch response felt identical to bare glass. Dbrand markets “flawless optical clarity” and an edge to edge fit, and in use the screen simply looked like the original panel with less glare and fewer prints.
Scratch and impact protection
I pocketed the Switch 2 with house keys for a five minute walk and rubbed the keys lightly across the screen a few times at home. The glass did not pick up micro-scratches. Mohs 7 tempered glass should resist everyday metal contact and grit from bags. That lines up with what I saw after a week of use.
Fingerprints and cleaning
The oleophobic coating works. After an hour of Splatoon and a few menus, I saw light smudges that wiped clean with one dry pass. With cheaper glass I usually need a damp wipe. Dbrand highlights a high performance coating, and it behaved that way for me.
Dock and case compatibility
The protector cleared the dock rails with no scraping. I also tested a generic TPU shell. The glass did not lift when I snapped the shell on or off. Edge tension did not appear, which is where poor fit can cause lifting over time. Dbrand sells the Switch 2 line as a full ecosystem of cases, skins, and glass and positions Prism 2.0 as the “idiot proof” option. My sample paired fine with the dock and a third party shell.
Longevity and warranty
The kit includes two protectors. That matters if you break one or botch an install. Having a spare reduces downtime and gives you a clean replacement months later if the surface eventually loses some slickness. Dbrand also emphasizes recyclable glass in the pack.
How it compares on value
At roughly 35 dollars, Prism 2.0 costs more than common two packs on Amazon, but the tray, dust control layer, and finish gave me a cleaner first try than budget glass. Several third party reviewers also rate Prism 2.0 as a top pick for Switch 2 thanks to ease of application and durability, which aligns with my hands on results.
The bottom line
Prism 2.0 did three things well for me. It installed perfectly the first time, it stayed invisible in daily use, and it resisted scratches and prints better than the cheap options I have used. The premium price is the only real hesitation, but the kit includes two protectors and the install experience is best in class. If you want a set-and-forget screen protector for Switch 2, this is the one I would buy.
Overall Score: 9.0 out of 10
