It achieves up to 75% light transmittance, delivering a brighter image than standard privacy filters and reducing the need for frequent removal during collaborative sessions.
The filter includes blue light reduction, independently tested to block 47% of blue light in the 380-450 nm range, which helps reduce eye strain during extended use. It supports touchscreen functionality and uses an adhesive strip attachment system for secure installation on bezel-less or slim bezel displays.

User Manual
FAQ
What size laptop display is this privacy screen filter compatible with?
This privacy screen filter is specifically designed for 13.3-inch displays with a 16:9 aspect ratio. It fits most notebooks with these dimensions, including those with bezel-less or slim bezel designs. The filter measures 11.6" wide by 6.50" long to match standard 13.3-inch laptop screens.
How does the Microlouver technology protect my screen from visual eavesdropping?
Microlouver technology uses microscopic louvers within the filter material to narrow the viewing angle to approximately ±30 degrees from center. This means the screen content becomes difficult to see from side angles, effectively preventing shoulder surfing while maintaining clear visibility for the user directly in front of the display. The technology doesn't interfere with webcams, sensors, or laptop lid closure.
Can I still use touchscreen functions with this privacy filter installed?
Yes, this privacy screen filter is fully touch compatible. The ultra-thin profile (0.50 mm height) preserves touchscreen responsiveness, allowing you to interact with your laptop display normally. The filter doesn't require removal for touch operations, maintaining both privacy protection and full touch functionality.
How does the flip-over feature work and when would I use it?
The flip-over feature allows you to quickly rotate the privacy filter to the back of your laptop screen when you need to share content. This is useful during collaborative meetings, presentations, or when temporarily working in a secure private space. The included flip-up tabs facilitate easy rotation without removing the filter, providing flexibility between private and shared viewing modes.
What installation methods are included with this privacy screen filter?
The package includes multiple installation options: adhesive strips for permanent attachment, side mounting tabs for removable installation, and flip-over tabs for the rotating function. This variety accommodates different laptop bezel designs and user preferences, with the adhesive strips particularly suited for bezel-less or slim bezel displays. A quick-start guide provides clear installation instructions.
How does the blue light reduction feature benefit users?
The blue light reduction feature blocks 47% of blue light in the 380-450 nm range, as independently tested by a third-party laboratory. This helps reduce eye strain and fatigue during extended computer use, particularly important for professionals who work long hours on their laptops. The filtering occurs without significantly affecting color accuracy or display brightness.
