Belkin's latest screen protector for Apple ultrabooks also confers a property that HP devices with SureView have by default. It occludes the content on these screens for viewing angles not those of the user, thus reducing the risk of intrusion or some immediate forms of data-theft. It is available for 13-, 15- and 16-inch MacBooks Air and Pro.
HP and Lenovo have been installing privacy filters into many of its professional-grade notebooks for some time. While some iterations may not completely have worked out as intended, they may indeed have the advantage of protecting against over-the-shoulder types of data-loss. On the other hand, it may simply give more peace of mind while working in communal areas - a concern that has now come to the home for many.
Now, Belkin's latest form of screen protector for some MacBooks does the same job. This new Screenforce product can also be stored on its included "TruePrivacy Panel" when the user does not want it on their display, but can also be re-applied at will.
Its maker also describes it as ultra-thin and as useable with (first-party) cases for the notebook in question. Furthermore, it is also rated as an anti-glare protector. It is currently priced at US$59.99, regardless of compatible model. They consist of the 13-inch Macbook Air or Pro, Pro 15 or Pro 16 at present.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
