Kensington MagPro Elite Magnetic Privacy Screen Filter for MacBook Pro 16” (2021 and newer)

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

Kensington’s MagPro Elite privacy filter is one of the few “just works” options for a 16” MacBook Pro. The big win is the magnetic fit and the fact it’s built for modern MacBooks rather than feeling like an afterthought—alignment tends to be much better than generic screen flaps. If you work in open-plan offices, on trains, or anywhere people can look over your shoulder, the privacy effect is genuinely noticeable without turning the screen into a washed-out mess. It’s also reasonably tidy: you’re not faffing with straps or trying to get a perfect cover each time you move around.

That said, £68 ex-VAT isn’t cheap, so I’d only buy this if privacy is a real daily need. If you mostly work in a private office or you’re happy to just be “a bit discreet,” you’d likely get similar value from cheaper alternatives. Also, if you’re the kind of person who constantly removes and reattaches filters, check whether your team is consistent—magnetic products are convenient, but they’re still an added layer you’ll be handling. Overall: good quality, good experience, best for business users who actually value on-the-go privacy and want low-hassle fit.
