Product Information

Full details

The Targus Privacy Screen 14.1"W is designed for professionals who need to protect sensitive information on their widescreen laptop displays while on the go. Its primary benefit is enhancing screen privacy by limiting the viewing angle to direct users. A potential caveat is that the filter may slightly alter screen brightness or color perception due to its privacy technology. This accessory provides essential security, reduces glare, offers blue light reduction, and protects your screen from scratches, all while being touchscreen compatible and easy to apply or remove.

FAQs

What is the exact size of this privacy screen?

This privacy screen is designed for 14.1-inch widescreen LCD displays with a 16:10 aspect ratio.

Can I use this on a laptop with a different screen size?

No, this specific model is precisely sized for 14.1-inch (16:10) screens. Using it on a different size may lead to improper fit or coverage.

How does the privacy feature work?

The filter uses microlouver technology to restrict the viewing angle to directly in front of the screen. Anyone viewing from an angle will see a darkened or black screen.

Is the privacy screen difficult to install?

No, it is designed for easy application and removal using an adhesive strip. Clean your screen first, align the filter, and press it down gently.

Can I use this privacy screen with a touchscreen laptop?

Yes, this Targus privacy screen is compatible with touchscreen laptops, allowing normal touch functionality.

What is the difference between the matte and glossy sides?

The matte side reduces glare and fingerprints, while the glossy side offers a clearer, more vibrant picture. You can choose which side to face outwards based on your preference and environment.

Will this filter protect my screen from physical damage?

Yes, it provides a layer of protection against scratches and minor abrasions, helping to keep your original screen in good condition.

Troubleshooting

Screen is not private; visible from the sides.

Ensure the privacy screen is correctly aligned with your laptop screen and that you are viewing it directly from the front. Check that the correct side (matte or glossy) is facing outwards based on your preference.

Bubbles or Creases on the screen.

Carefully remove the privacy screen and reapply, ensuring the laptop screen is perfectly clean and free of dust. Work slowly from the center outwards to push out air.

Touchscreen is unresponsive or inaccurate.

Confirm the privacy screen is designed for touchscreen compatibility. Ensure it is applied smoothly without excessive air bubbles. Sometimes, recalibrating your touchscreen settings might help.

Adhesive strip is not sticking well.

Clean the adhesive strip gently with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and allow it to air dry completely. Ensure the edges of your laptop screen are also clean.

Reduced screen brightness or visibility issues.

Adjust your laptop's display brightness settings. Privacy filters inherently reduce light transmission.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides effective visual privacy in public or shared workspaces.
  • Reduces screen glare and eye strain, improving user comfort.
  • Helps protect the laptop screen from scratches and minor damage.
  • Maintains touchscreen functionality.
  • Easy to install and remove without leaving residue.
  • Offers a choice between matte and glossy finishes.

Cons

  • May slightly reduce screen brightness and require display settings adjustment.
  • The adhesive strip can lose stickiness with frequent reapplication.
  • Requires precise alignment during installation to avoid air bubbles or misalignment.

  • The narrowed viewing angle might be restrictive for collaborative screen sharing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This privacy screen is specifically designed for 14.1-inch widescreen LCD displays with a 16:10 aspect ratio. Ensure your screen dimensions and aspect ratio match before application. It is compatible with any brand of laptop fitting these specifications.

Setup:

  1. Clean your laptop screen thoroughly with a microfiber cloth to remove dust and smudges.
  2. Carefully peel off the protective film from the adhesive side of the privacy screen.
  3. Align the privacy screen precisely with the edges of your laptop display.
  4. Gently press down along the edges to secure the screen, working from the center outwards to avoid air bubbles.

Care:

  • To clean the privacy screen, use a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the anti-glare or privacy coatings.
  • When removing the screen, peel it off slowly and carefully from a corner. Store it in a clean, dry place, ideally using the protective backing it came with, to preserve the adhesive.
  • Periodically clean the adhesive strip if it accumulates dust, using a slightly damp cloth and allowing it to air dry completely before reapplication.
