Kensington EQ Privacy Screen Filter for 24'' Monitors 16:9

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’re working with sensitive info on a 24" screen in a shared office, Kensington’s privacy filter is the kind of “small purchase, big peace of mind” accessory that actually gets used. The view-angle restriction does a solid job of keeping shoulder-surfers from casually reading your screen, and Kensington filters tend to be well-thought-out in how they sit and align on the display without feeling flimsy. At ~£70 ex-VAT, it’s not cheap, but it’s also not in the category of absurd pricing—good value if your risk is real (open-plan desks, client work, finance, HR, legal, etc.).

That said, I’d be cautious if you expect it to be invisible. Privacy filters always trade off some brightness and can make colour/contrast look a bit different, especially if you’re the sort of person who notices display tweaks. Also, they’re only worth it if your “viewing setup” is consistent—if you regularly move, swivel around, or need a wide viewing angle for collaboration, this will annoy you more than it helps. Bottom line: buy it if privacy is a daily concern and your workflow is mostly front-on; skip it if you need perfect image fidelity or frequent shared viewing.
