AI-generated summary
If you’re serious about privacy in an office, Kensington’s anti-glare/blue-light style filters are generally a safe buy—because they’re made for one job: reducing what someone “off to the side” can read. At ~£46.92 ex-VAT, the value is decent *if* your setup actually benefits from it (open-plan desks, shared meeting rooms, or anyone sitting close to colleagues). The anti-glare part is usually the more noticeable day-to-day improvement, especially under overhead lighting, while the blue-light marketing is more “nice-to-have” than a guaranteed health win.
That said, I wouldn’t buy one if you’re doing colour-critical work (photo/video, design) or if you want crisp text and maximum brightness. Privacy/anti-glare films almost always soften contrast and can make the screen look a bit dimmer and less “punchy,” which gets annoying fast for spreadsheet-heavy or graphic work. Also, frameless/edge-to-edge installs can be finicky depending on your monitor’s bezel and how good your alignment is—if the fit isn’t perfect, you’ll notice it every time you glance at the screen.
**Buy it** if your priority is privacy and glare reduction on a typical office display. **Skip it** if you need maximum visual fidelity or brightness, or you sit in a controlled lighting setup where glare isn’t really a problem.
