## **About StarTech 162MG-PRIVACY-SCREEN**

The **StarTech 162MG-PRIVACY-SCREEN** is a gold privacy filter specifically designed for compatible **16-inch MacBook Pro M1, M2, M3, and M4 laptops**. Its reflective gold surface quickly transitions to a mirror-like effect when viewed outside the intended viewing angle, helping protect sensitive information from people nearby.

The reversible filter offers two finishes. The **glossy gold side** provides enhanced visual privacy while maintaining colour vibrancy, while the **matte anti-glare side** helps reduce reflections in bright working environments. The matte side also features a scratch- and fingerprint-resistant coating.

With **60% light transmittance** and up to **51% blue-light reduction**, the filter combines screen privacy with practical everyday use. Its precision-fit construction is designed to accommodate the laptop's top-mounted webcam and surrounding display sensors without preventing the lid from closing.

This model is also **TAA compliant**, making it suitable for applicable procurement requirements.
