Review on 13.3 Inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air Anti Glare and Blue Light Protector Screen (16:10) - Fits 2016 to Current Models, Including 2018 MacBook Air by Michael Finnegan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too thick to fully cover screen

At first glance this is a great product. The magnetic mount eliminates the need for tape, which becomes less effective over time. The screen is exactly the same size as a 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, but the screen is too deep for the lid to fully close. When open, the screen is not adjacent to the display, i.e. on the underside where there is no magnetic mount (see photo). This affects the visibility of content at the bottom of the screen due to the air gap between the filter and the screen itself. The privacy feature is also not as good as the 3M gold filters. Good idea but bad execution. Update 7/21/2017: Contacted Akamai seller to refund my purchase even after the 30 day revain limit. They also note in the description that the lid will not close when the filter is in place. So I'm increasing my rating from 2 to 3 stars because of the excellent customer service. While my review of the product stands on its own, it's good to know that the seller will work with you to ensure customer satisfaction.
