The screen doesn't seem to be flush with the dock and there's definitely some wiggle room. I'm not sure how it's getting scratched in curvy and jagged ways.
I might line my dock with microfiber cloth or something.
:lollol, what if it's both and it's just luck of the draw regarding which you get?
Glad I bought the Nintendo carrying case that came with a screen protector, sucky as it may be though. Will probably get a quality glass one whenever they're available.
I find Blunty to be a pretty reasonable guy. He also has scratches on the bezel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUZ-Icqhemw
Disgusting.

That's the one I should be buying, right? As far as screen protectors goes, that is.
Reviews are horrible on this one. It seems to be delaminating. I would not order it. Get the amfilm one. Glass >>>> plastic.
Yeah, I feel the same way. Not saying that it didn't happen to people or won't happen to me, but there's so much wiggle room between the dock and the switch that I hope I can avoid this by being careful.Fingers crossed that this can be avoided by being careful while sliding the Switch in and out of the dock.

I might try that. When I first set it up I was actually surprised how loose the thing sits in the dock, and even more surprised when I saw this thread. Definitely seems like an oversight.I don't have a Switch, but if the dock has wiggle room you should be able to stick some felt padding inside to avoid scratches. Just a small strip on both sides should do it.
I mean, you shouldn't have to. Nintendo should have. But at least there seems to be an easy solution to the problem they've created.
A felt strip or attaching some pads is really going to be required. I've literally taken my Switch in and out of the dock say 8 times today and you can already where the little plastic nubs on the dock inner rub against the screen.
The way the Switch unit sits in the dock is also pretty shoddy. There is a lot of play and it rattles around in there even with the lightest touch.
Great, due to the heat from the system, my Hori Premium Screen protector just peels off.

It really does that?
There have been similar complaints from customers on amazon.co.jp.
Shit...Hori screen protectors are BY FAR the best you can get for 3DS, Vita and Wii U.
So what now? Does the cheaper non-premium Hori protector have the same issues?
Four rubber nubs in the dock or two?

Nah not even close. Tempered glass even from no name companies have always been way way better than anything hori makes.

The screen is definitely plastic, too bad it isn't using gorilla glass.
I was trying to remove any surface level scratches with the cleaning cloth you get from Club Nintendo years ago for DS and instead it created more scratches.
The screen is very fragile. It's too late for me to get a screen protector, I don't think it will be a big deal for me, I've had scratched screens since the GBA and I got used to it since I wouldn't notice them while playing.
I just have to be careful figuring out what the deal is with the dock. It has no soft padding so you have to slide it down slowly and, the real annoyance comes when a game like Master Blaster Zero doesn't let you use the Pro Controller so you have to use the Joy-Cons which I've haven't had the best time sliding them out of the console easily.
WAIT, you cant use the Pro Controller for Blaster Master Zero?
