Pros

Comes with a cleaning cloth and a thin sleeve for the film. The lid can be closed with the film attached. The feel of closing the lid is different (the magnetic strip contacts the keyboard deck, instead of the trim of the screen) the auto wake up when...  Read More

Could not be happier with my purchase. Wish i could buy more of them as it came out messed up for me. I hope this was helpful.

It does a great job of obscuring the screen and works exactly like i wanted it to. Bought it as a screen protector. It can be so uncomfortable when coworkers come in and start asking about it.

Magnetic strips make it extremely easy to attach and detach as necessary. The film, due to the magnetic portion being slightly thicker, leaves the laptop with a negligible gap. Static cling coupled with a slight angle solve that problem for me.

As long as your screen brightness matches your surrounding environment correctly, you should get the desired effect. One thing worth noting is that unless you go below a comfortable brightness, it will be easy for people to make out shapes and possibl...  Read More



Cons

Instructions are unclear. The instructions are very unclear photos and no written instructions to follow. You’d be much better off buying one of the cheaper options.

Highlights

Quality


Easy to stick on the screen and very sturdy


The screen filter itself is high quality and was easy to install.


Keep in mind, all of this testing was done with someone sitting literally shoulder to shoulder, and i'm relaying worst case scenario.


My mbp, like many others, has been plagued with the screen having imprints from the keys that are now permanent marks on the screen.

Price


For ~$40 it's feasible to occasionally purchase a new one if the matte side gets dirty, which was one of my initial concerns.


I took a chance and ordered this produced used like new and i'm glad i did for the lower price.

Shipping


The privacy screen arrived to my home in sofia (eastern europe, bulgaria) in under 2 weeks.

Packaging/appearance


Already threw away the packaging, so i can’t return the screen.

Competitiveness


I have no idea what the difference is between this privacy screen and the more expensive elite, and this is the only one i've tried.


In other words, you won't find something better for it.

    The glossy side is a bit brighter overall


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However if in an area with a bright reflections i love using the matte side to defuse them

    Only issue is when you increase screen brightness it fails to block the screen visibility


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have a dell precision 5550 with weird screen proportions that i use for work


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Obviously the downside of any product like this is that it will dim your screen slightly so if you do graphic design like me it might be worth it to mount an additional set of magnets on the back of your laptop so you can remove the screen and stash it there temporarily while you do work that requires color accuracy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For all other work it doesnt cause any issues


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The cover comes with little corner tabs to adhere the bottom corners of the screen down to your laptop screen so it doesnt move around but i dont really find that this is an issue


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It won’t prevent the macbook pro from entering into sleep mode
