Privacy screen filter TARGUS Magnetic Privacy Screen 15.6" Widescreen 16:10 for laptop

The TARGUS Magnetic Privacy Screen 15.6" Widescreen 16:10 for laptop is a magnetic-attach privacy filter engineered to limit lateral viewing angles and protect on-screen information from visual hacking. Designed for use with 15.6-inch widescreen (16:10) laptops, the filter mounts quickly and securely via magnetic strips, providing a clear frontal view while reducing side visibility. The product preserves display clarity and supports touch functionality on compatible touchscreens, making it suitable for mobile professionals who need confidentiality without compromising display performance.

How to use

Align the magnetic strips with the laptop screen frame and place the privacy filter onto the display so the magnets engage evenly along the edges. Verify the filter is centered and fully attached to ensure consistent privacy performance. For touchscreen models, confirm touch responsiveness after mounting; if sensitivity changes, adjust settings in the operating system or temporarily remove the filter. When traveling, remove and store the filter in a protective sleeve to avoid scratches and reapply it when needed.

Usage recommendations

Clean the screen and magnetic strip area with a soft, lint-free cloth before attachment to prevent dust or debris from affecting adhesion. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents on the filter surface. Store the filter in a protective pouch when not in use and reattach carefully to maintain magnetic alignment. If the laptop display uses a bezel-less design, check compatibility before purchase.
