17-Inch Laptop Privacy Screen with Nanolouver Technology, Blue Light Reduction, and Reversible Glossy-to-Matte Design for 16:10 Widescreen Displays
The 3M BP170W1B is a Bright Screen privacy filter for 17-inch laptops with a 16:10 aspect ratio. The filter blacks out the display from side views beyond a 60-degree angle using 3M's proprietary Advanced Nanolouver technology, while transmitting up to 85 percent of the screen's light to the user. The 17-inch form factor is the largest standard laptop display size, and the BP170W1B provides full privacy coverage across this wider viewing area. Up to 25 percent brighter than standard black privacy screens, the Bright Screen filter keeps text and images clear for the user while blocking visual access from anyone outside the direct viewing angle.
The BP170W1B is reversible with a glossy side for maximum display clarity and a matte side that reduces glare and fingerprint visibility in bright office environments. The 17-inch display's size makes it the most exposed laptop screen in shared environments, where side-angle viewing covers a wider field than smaller models. The filter is touch-compatible for laptops with touchscreen displays and provides blue light reduction without distorting on-screen colors. Includes COMPLY Flip Attach and adhesive strips for two mounting options.
Where the BP170W1B Fits
- Open-plan offices and coworking spaces where the 17-inch display's wide viewing area makes on-screen content visible to anyone seated at a neighboring desk, and the larger screen surface area means more sensitive data is exposed at wider angles
- Business travel and public spaces where working on a 17-inch laptop in airports, trains, and conference spaces puts confidential client data within view of anyone nearby, and the large display is visible from multiple seating positions
- Healthcare and finance workstations where HIPAA, PCI, and other compliance frameworks require visual privacy controls to prevent unauthorized viewing of patient records, financial accounts, and personally identifiable information
What the BP170W1B Delivers
- Sized for 17-inch 16:10 displays: The filter matches the 16:10 aspect ratio on 17-inch performance and workstation laptops. Complete coverage with no trimming and no gap between the filter edge and the display bezel.
- 85% light transmission, 25% brighter than standard: The Bright Screen Nanolouver technology passes up to 85 percent of the display's light output while blacking out side views beyond 60 degrees. Text stays sharp, colors stay accurate.
- Reversible glossy and matte surfaces: Flip the filter to choose between a glossy finish for maximum clarity and a matte finish that reduces glare and fingerprint visibility in brightly lit environments.
- COMPLY Flip Attach and adhesive strip mounting: Two included mounting options let you snap the filter on and off with the flip attachment for frequent sharing, or secure it with adhesive strips for a semi-permanent installation.
- Blue light reduction with touch compatibility: The filter reduces blue light emission from the display without color distortion, and the touch-compatible surface maintains full touchscreen functionality on compatible laptops.
