The V7 Privacy Filter is excellent for open, high-traffic environments or wherever on-screen data needs to be kept private. You get a straight-on, clear view of your information, while the people on all sides of you see a darkened screen. The two-sided filter offers the option to choose either high-gloss finish that sharpens contrast, or matte finish that reduces glare and is ideal for outdoor use. The Filter is easy to attach and remove, and can be left in place even when your notebook computer is closed, protecting your screen from scuffs and scratches.
