Square Register (1st generation) Screen Protector
The Square Square Register (1st generation) is a point-of-sale and payment terminal. In payment fleets this screen is customer-facing all day: PIN-entry privacy, counter impact, and terminal cleaning frequency shape the protection spec. Privacy and wipe-safe options are matched through the specification request. Screen dimensions are sourced from manufacturer documentation; protector cut dimensions are confirmed with the supplier before production.

Screen dimensions are the device’s active display area, not protector cut dimensions. Cut sizes depend on bezel geometry and adhesive design and are confirmed with the supplier before any production run. Housing dimensions are the overall device body, not the screen. Aspect ratio and pixel density are derived from the sourced values above.

Research notes: Dual-screen countertop POS (seller- and buyer-facing screens, detachable customer display per Square's press pages). Status 'discontinued': Square's current hardware lineup markets the 2nd-generation Register (1st-gen specs page remains live). Display diagonals/resolutions are NOT published on any loadable Square page this run (specs tables render dynamically and came back empty on squareup.com/us/en/hardware/register/specs-1st-generation and the GB locale); screen fields left null rather than estimated [unverified third-party sources claim ~13-inch main and ~7-inch customer displays - not used]. Weight 3.9 lb (unit) / 1.2 lb (customer display) per specs page. Square's cleaning FAQ applies (shut down and unplug before wiping with 70% alcohol cloth). [enriched 2026-09-08] Weight 3.9 lb (unit, excludes 1.2 lb customer display and 0.8 lb power kit) per specs page, converted to g. Dimensions
