Designed for a 16:10 aspect ratio, this filter creates a private viewing zone so prying eyes can’t easily glimpse your content from the sides, making it ideal for open offices, cafes, or travel. Beyond privacy, it acts as a durable shield against everyday scratches and dust while maintaining clarity and color accuracy for documents, presentations, and multimedia. Its MagPro magnetic attachment delivers a clean, adhesive-free experience—install in seconds, remove just as fast, and easily store when you don’t need privacy. The matte anti-glare coating minimizes reflections under bright lighting, reducing eye strain during long sessions, while its lightweight profile ensures your laptop’s form factor stays sleek and portable.

• Privacy with a wide viewing angle — Engineered to limit side viewing, the MagPro privacy filter keeps your sensitive information confidential from adjacent angles while preserving a crisp, readable image when viewed head-on. This is especially beneficial in busy environments where screens are exposed to nearby colleagues, clients, or passersby. The filter’s 16:10 design aligns with your 16" notebook display, ensuring full-coverage privacy without overlapping critical screen corners. Enjoy peace of mind during confidential emails, financial data work, and strategic planning without compromising on visual clarity when you’re viewing straight ahead.
• Magnetic, adhesive-free installation — The MagPro system uses secure magnets to attach the privacy filter to your notebook bezel, delivering effortless placement and removal without sticky adhesives or residue. This means no surface coatings to mar your device, and you can switch privacy on or off in moments as your needs change throughout the day. The magnetic alignment ensures consistent positioning every time, so you won’t waste time re-centering the filter. For travelers or students who reconfigure workspace setups, this feature is especially convenient and durable.
• Durable protection with anti-scratch, anti-dust coating — Built to withstand daily use, the privacy screen filter acts as a shield against scratches, dust, and incidental contact. The protective layer helps keep your display pristine even in transit or crowded environments, reducing the risk of micro-scratches that can impact screen readability. The outer surface is designed to resist fingerprint smudges, making it easier to maintain a clean, professional-looking screen with minimal cleaning effort. This protection extends the life of your display while preserving visibility and contrast.
• Matte anti-glare finish for enhanced readability — The filter’s matte coating minimizes reflections from ambient lighting, office lamps, or sunlight, delivering a comfortable viewing experience during long work sessions. By reducing glare, it helps you read text, view spreadsheets, and review documents with greater ease, even in challenging lighting conditions. The anti-glare surface also contributes to clearer video calls and presentations, as unwanted reflections are minimized and colors stay true to form.
• Lightweight, power-friendly design with color fidelity — The MagPro Privacy Screen Filter is engineered to be lightweight, so it won’t noticeably alter your laptop’s balance or portability. The clear viewing experience remains intact with minimal impact on brightness and color accuracy, ensuring that your photos, graphs, and slides look natural while you maintain privacy. This balance of privacy and performance makes it a practical upgrade for professionals who rely on accurate visuals and color-critical work while staying discreet in public or shared spaces.

How to install Kensington MagPro Privacy Screen Filter

Installing the Kensington MagPro Privacy Screen Filter is quick and straightforward thanks to its magnetic attachment system. Follow these simple steps to ensure optimal privacy and screen protection without leaving adhesive residue on your notebook:

1. Power off or close sensitive applications to protect your data during handling.
2. Clean the notebook display surface and bezel with a microfiber cloth to remove dust, oils, and fingerprints. A clean surface ensures proper magnet alignment and prevents particles from interfering with attachment.
3. Position the MagPro privacy filter near the top edge of your display. Align the magnets with your laptop’s bezel so that the frame sits flush around the screen.

5. To remove for cleaning or privacy-off periods, simply hold the filter by its edges and lift away. Clean the filter with a microfiber cloth, then reattach in the same manner when ready.
