Review on Apple MacBook Compatible Anti Scratch 2016 Current by Maya Rico

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent privacy protection with little (but expected) degradation in image quality

As the reviews for this product are mixed and potential buyers might benefit, I wanted to share my thoughts. I've been using this successfully for the past few hours on a Mac Book Pro 2012-2016 15". 1) Privacy. It works, and it works well. The screen is barely visible from the side. At a 45 degree angle to be precise, it's very hard to see the screen. At >45 degrees you have almost complete privacy and that's at full screen brightness. Was graphic designer, I could pose a little problem with that, but for general office work and web browsing the screen is fine .If my image quality was 5/5 before the filter I would rate it a 4/5 now In my opinion this degradation was to be expected but just wanted to mention it in case anyone finds unrealistic expectations.3) Installation/Assembly. Incredibly easy and took about 5 minutes No problems so far As you can see from my review I give it 4 stars and recommend it I think it's great value for money and the screen does the job when it comes to privacy. In my opinion the image quality has to be absolutely uncompromising for a privacy screen to earn 5 stars (and as mentioned above there is a slight downside). I'm not sure if there is such a privacy filter for a relatively large screen like the 15 inch MBP that offers privacy without sacrificing screen quality. reasonable price ($28) and who can afford a slight degradation in screen quality (which I think is to be expected anyway). So I would give it 5 stars: If a similar screen comes out in the future with the same level of privacy as this screen but without noticeably sacrificing image quality, I would give it 5 stars I haven't found one that meets those criteria at the moment, and I am completely satisfied with this purchase. Possible cons of my review: This is my first privacy screen, so I have no point of comparison. I may have overlooked a better alternative that would force me to drop this to 3 or 3.5. stars, but on an absolute basis I'm pretty confident. Note that I received a perfectly good privacy screen and stand by my 4 star rating. Much luck!
