Kensington 2-way Removable Privacy Screen Filter for 23" Monitors 16:9

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The Kensington 2‑way removable privacy filter for 23" is the kind of add-on that’s great in busy offices, hot-desking environments, or any role where you can’t assume everyone around you is “quiet with their eyes.” The benefit here is real: it makes shoulder-surfing a lot harder without you having to change how you work or lock your screen. At ~£59 ex‑VAT, it’s also priced like a practical office solution rather than a premium “designer” accessory.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it for everyone. If your team runs colour-critical work (design, editing, engineering visuals) or you’re very sensitive to brightness/contrast shifts, privacy filters can be a noticeable compromise—two-way filters especially can make screens feel darker or narrower in viewing comfort, depending on your monitor and lighting. It also depends on how often you take the filter on/off: removable is convenient, but if it’s a constant daily fiddle, you’ll probably end up leaving it off, which defeats the point. Overall: worth it for admin, finance, compliance, IT support, or general business users who want basic privacy for not much money—less worth it for creative/colour-accuracy-first teams.
