    Hi all,

    Does anyone have personal experience with laptop screen filters and can recommend some to me? I tend to work pretty late on my laptop, and I'm thinking the screen light might be keeping me from getting good sleep. I heard that screen filters can help with this. I'm also open to suggestions for programs which can adjust screen settings, either intrinsic to Windows or third-party.

    Thanks!

    Currently, I use a 14-inch privacy filter that has been impressing me for last 2 months. It is from 3M brand.

    It comes with easy-to-attach options.... you may give 3M a try based on your laptop screen size, you can find one as well.

    Try f.lux https://justgetflux.com/ I've been using it for a couple of years now with no problems at all. It makes it a lot easier to use the computer during the night/in low light. I believe Windoze X has a similar programme built in, but I wouldn't know if it's any good as you couldn't pay me to use that service.

    PaladinPC currently I am using 3M brand's screen filter for my laptop. Quality and name of 3M needs no word. There privacy filter gives you proper output for your requirement. Use 3M for filters for trial. Have a good day.
