FAQ
Which Surface Pro models is this privacy screen filter compatible with?
This privacy screen filter is designed for 12.3-inch Microsoft Surface Pro tablets, specifically models 4, 5, 6, 7, and 7+. It provides an exact fit that does not interfere with cameras, sensors, or speakers, ensuring full functionality across these generations.
How does the 4-way privacy technology work?
The filter uses microlouver technology to restrict screen visibility outside a 60-degree viewing angle. This means the display content is only clearly visible within +/- 30 degrees from the center, both horizontally and vertically, effectively preventing side viewing in public or shared spaces.
Does the privacy screen affect touchscreen functionality?
No, the privacy screen is fully touch-compatible. It maintains the tablet's original touch sensitivity and responsiveness, allowing you to interact with the screen normally while keeping your data private. The matte finish also reduces glare without hindering touch operations.
What is included in the installation kit?
The installation kit includes a privacy screen filter, cleaning wipes set, wiping cloth, squeegee, dust remover, guide stickers set, and a quick-start guide. These tools ensure a clean, bubble-free adhesive application for a secure and long-lasting fit on your Surface Pro display.
How does the blue light reduction feature benefit users?
The filter blocks up to 51% of blue light emitted by the screen, which helps reduce digital eye strain and improve visual comfort during prolonged use. This feature is particularly beneficial for users who spend extended periods on their tablets, supporting healthier viewing habits without compromising privacy.
Is the privacy screen removable once installed?
The privacy screen uses a self-adhesive backing designed for a one-time, permanent application. It is not intended to be removed or repositioned after installation, as doing so could damage the filter or the tablet screen. The included guide stickers help ensure accurate placement during the initial setup.
