Privacy screen protector for monitors - you have to keep that in mind
If you want to protect your computer or laptop from prying eyes, a privacy screen protector for monitors will help you. We'll show you what to look for when buying.
Privacy screen protector for monitor and laptop: tips for buying
- The possible angle to look at a screen is a maximum of 180 degrees. Many manufacturers promise to reduce the possible angle to 60 degrees with the privacy screen protector. Pay attention to what angle you are promised.
- In order for the film to fit, you need the right size. Note not only the screen diagonal in inches, but also the format. Depending on the laptop or monitor, the formats 16:10 and 16: 9 are the most common.
- Not every privacy screen protector protects your monitor from all sides. Some films only offer protection from the left and right. In many cases, however, that is enough. Also keep in mind that the foils are often not suitable for touch screens.
Keep your eyes open when buying the privacy screen protector
- Manufacturers can promise a lot that ultimately will only be met by other buyers. It is always worth taking a look at the reviews of the online shops.
- This is the only way to find out how the maximum angle of the privacy screen protector is. The behavior of the foils at high screen brightness is also important. Many films lose effectiveness here.
- Amazon customers are particularly satisfied with 3M privacy films. However, quality also has its price: the foils cost between 35 and 60 euros. The privacy films from V7 are available for 30 to 40 euros.
