Do privacy screens reduce display quality?

Yes, slightly. Even the best privacy filters reduce brightness by 20-30% and add a subtle haze. The 3M High Clarity series minimizes this impact. For most office work, the quality reduction is barely noticeable. Color-critical work should use the High Clarity model.

Can privacy screens be used on curved monitors?

Standard flat privacy filters don't work on curved monitors. A few manufacturers make curved-specific models, but selection is limited. For curved monitors, consider a privacy screen designed for your exact model or a desk-mounted privacy panel instead.
