Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £48.76 ex-VAT, the Kensington privacy filter is the kind of “quiet upgrade” that’s genuinely useful if you share space. If your desk faces colleagues, open-plan offices, or you do client work where you can’t control who’s sitting next to you, an anti-glare/blue-light combo can be a decent value—mainly for reducing screen reflections and making the display feel a bit more comfortable over long days. Kensington generally makes these things fit more cleanly than no-name brands, which matters because a poorly aligned filter looks awful and can ruin usability.

That said, I’d be cautious if you’re gaming, doing colour-sensitive work, or you already use your monitor with good lighting control. Privacy filters almost always cost you brightness and can slightly shift how colours and contrast look, so you may end up turning your monitor up (negating some “comfort” benefits) or feeling like the screen looks flatter. Also, if you’re in a setup where people don’t regularly view from the sides, you’re paying for a problem you might not have.

**Buy it if:** you work in shared/visible spaces and want practical privacy plus less glare. **Skip it if:** you need accurate colours, high brightness, or you’re mainly trying to solve eye strain without changing your lighting/monitor settings. If you tell me your monitor model and whether you view from the front or at an angle, I can give a more confident “yes/no” based on real viewing conditions.
