It has been more than a year since I applied Invisible Shield on my NDS and PSP and it is time to find out how well the shield fares after that long period.

One of the most common complains I heard bout Invisible Shield is that it tends to turn yellowish after some time. Judging by the look of my NDS, that complain stands true.

You can see that the color difference between the area marked in red with the area marked in green. Even the stylus looks brighter compared to the areas covered with Invisible Shield.

Discoloration is very apparent on bright colors, especially white.

Dust & dirt is the next mutual enemy of the Invisible Shield. Take a look at the next picture.

Notice that one nice line of dust? Yeap that’s what happen when you leave your devices out in the open. My PSP on the other hand suffered less damage as it is always inside the Capdase casing.  With that I came up with this conclusion; always keep your devices inside a pouch or a bag. It really helps to reduce significant amount of dust collected.

Apart from the two issues mentioned above, the shield still looks good with no apparent ‘peeling’ after many months of usage. As long as the shield is applied properly, chances of that happening is relatively rare.

Here are a few more pictures of the shield, a year later;
