I bought a used 680t with a screen protector on. It feels a little less sensitive from the 650 I had previously (without sp).
It also came with several genuine Garmin screen protectors.
I'm wondering whether to remove the one already there and replace it, or remove it and have nothing, or leave things as they are (which I'm favouring at the moment).
Would appreciate any comments please

I am biased against screen protectors on resistive film touchscreens, but that is just me.

Removing the existing protector may stretch the resistive film out and cause permanent damage leading to issues that cannot be corrected without replacing the entire display assembly.
