What phone do you have? For most modern smartphones these days screen protectors are completely unnecessary.

Some Android phones have gorilla glass screens. No need for protector

I think the sellotape was the final part of the cleaning process to make sure you've pulled all off the last remaining dust from the screen before applying the protector. Cleaning with a cloth often generates static, so you end up with a sneaky dust particle or dog hair on the screen that you only spot when the protector is stuck down.

Exactly that, the cloths leave tiny bits behind which is what causes so many to get imperfect applications of protectors.

You literally take a strip of sellotape stick it on the screen, lift it up, move down the screen, stick, lift, repeat - the screen is not sticky as a result of doing this.

If you can use two or three pieces then the quality of the clean screen left behind for the protector to stick to is much better.

Samsung might beg to differ with you on that one, they include screen protectors as standard on their Galaxy handsets (S4 and S5 anyway).
