AI-generated summary
If you’re using a 24" 16:10 monitor in an office where you sit close to colleagues, this Kensington 2‑way privacy filter is the sort of sensible “quality of life” buy that actually pays off. The big win with these is that they cut shoulder-surfing without forcing you to relocate or change how people collaborate around you. For the price (£63.74 ex‑VAT), it’s also hard to beat versus the hassle of doing privacy another way (or replacing monitors because your viewing angle is just too exposed). If you’ve got contractors/hot-desking or mixed seating layouts, the removable angle is also genuinely useful—easy to take off when you need the full screen view, less faff when you’re reconfiguring desks.
That said, I’d only buy this if you’re realistic about trade-offs: privacy filters typically slightly dull contrast/brightness and make screens feel a bit “less crisp,” especially in brighter offices or on displays with mediocre brightness. If your main concern is aesthetics or you regularly need perfect full-screen readability for presentations from multiple sides, you may not love it. Also, make sure it’s a proper fit for your exact monitor model/shape—Kensington makes good gear, but privacy filters are unforgiving when alignment or dimensions aren’t right.
**Who should buy:** finance, HR, procurement, contact-centre supervisors, and anyone handling sensitive data on a shared floor. **Who should skip:** people who always need the best colour/contrast for creative work, or teams who regularly need unobstructed viewing from wide angles (e.g., dual-side demos).
Limited Viewing Angle
With a ±30° viewing angle, our privacy screen filters ensure only the person using the device will be able to see what’s on screen.
Anti-Glare and Blue Light Filter
Built-in anti-glare and blue light filters ease eye strain and reduce the chance of natural sleep pattern interruptions.
Touchscreen Compatible
Our privacy screen filters work with laptops and monitors with touchscreen functionality.
Effective Screen Protection
Adds an extra layer of physical protection to your screen, reducing the risk of scratches and other damage.
Two installation Options
Mounting tabs allow repeated removal and re-attachment, or adhesive tape for a cleaner look.
Reversible Viewing
One side has a matte finish to reduce glare and fingerprints. The other side is glossy and provides a clearer view of the screen.
