Targus ASF156W9EU display privacy filters

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £29.94 ex-VAT, the Targus ASF156W9EU privacy filter is the kind of “small spend, noticeable payoff” purchase that can genuinely help in busy UK offices—open-plan desks, client-facing work, shared meeting rooms. If you routinely work with sensitive stuff (financials, contracts, admin systems) and you don’t want to lose time constantly adjusting screen angles, this is a simple, low-friction way to reduce shoulder-surfing. It’s especially worth it for people who work at laptops on the move in co-working spaces or hot-desking environments.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you’re extremely picky about image clarity or you’re working in very bright rooms. Privacy filters inevitably trade a bit of brightness/contrast and can make the screen look a touch darker or softer, particularly when viewing content at less-than-straight angles. Also, these filters are only “set and forget” if they fit your specific screen perfectly and you’re disciplined about keeping them clean—fingerprints and dust become more obvious. Overall: a solid value for staff who need basic privacy and don’t want to jump to more expensive endpoint/security measures—but not for graphic designers, photographers, or anyone who lives and dies by perfect colour and crispness.
