Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Privacy with 3M Gold Privacy Filter for 23" Widescreen Monitor (GF230W9B) by Brian Kumar

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great filter but poor privacy protection for widescreen monitors

I had a 17" gold filter/3M screen protector and was very happy with it. So when I got the 23" monitor I bought the matching one Item for my now larger screen. These gold filters are excellent! I have pretty poor eyesight and feel like they actually make the letters and images on the screen clearer. However with the wider screen the "privacy" part is missing. Of course, you'd expect the range to be longer than a 17-inch screen, but standing about 4 feet from my monitor gives about 3 feet of range in any direction objects are on mine Monitor very clear to see. In summary, this device is great as a filter, but falls short for privacy protection when used with widescreen monitors, especially considering the high price.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
