FAQs
How does the Nanolouver technology work?
Nanolouver technology uses a series of microscopic vertical blinds embedded within the filter. These blinds allow light to pass through when viewed directly but block it when viewed from side angles, creating privacy.
Can I use this filter on a different laptop model?
This specific filter (model 7100288106) is designed for the Apple MacBook Pro 16.2-inch (2021). Using it on a different model may result in an improper fit and compromised performance. Always check compatibility for your specific device.
Is the filter difficult to remove?
No, the filter is designed for easy removal. It is attached with adhesive strips that allow it to be peeled off without leaving residue, provided it is removed carefully.
Will this filter protect my screen from scratches?
Yes, in addition to privacy, the filter provides a layer of protection against dust and minor scratches.
How much does the filter reduce blue light?
> Info needed: Specific percentage or range of blue light reduction.
Can I still use my touchscreen with the filter on?
Yes, the filter is designed to be touchscreen compatible, allowing you to use your MacBook Pro's touch features without interruption.
What is the viewing angle with this filter?
The filter limits the viewing angle to approximately 60 degrees (30 degrees from center to either side), ensuring that only you can clearly see the screen content.
Troubleshooting
Filter not adhering properly
Ensure both the screen and the filter's adhesive side are clean and free of dust and oils. Re-apply the filter slowly, pressing firmly from the center outwards to eliminate air bubbles.
Reduced screen brightness after application

Bubbles orcreases visible
