13.5-Inch Surface Privacy Screen with Microlouver Technology, Anti-Glare Matte Finish, Touch and Pen Compatibility, and 51% Blue Light Reduction for Surface Laptop and Surface Book
The StarTech 135S-PRIVACY-SCREEN is a 13.5-inch surface privacy screen designed as an exact fit for Microsoft Surface Laptop and Surface Book displays. Microlouver technology darkens the screen from side angles while providing a clear 60-degree viewing angle (+/- 30 degrees from center) at 57.5% light transmittance, keeping sensitive data visible only to the user directly in front of the display. The anti-glare matte finish on both sides reduces reflections in bright environments, and the ultrathin design preserves full touchscreen and pen responsiveness without compromising Surface functionality.
Transparent adhesive strip mounting provides a bubble-free installation that won't interfere with top-mounted webcams, sensors, or lid closing on compatible Surface devices. The fingerprint and scratch-resistant coating protects the display surface, the integrated blue light filter blocks up to 51% of blue light in the 380nm to 480nm wavelength range to reduce eye strain during extended sessions, and the included storage sleeve keeps the filter protected when not in use.
Where the StarTech Surface Privacy Screen Fits
- Professionals using Surface Laptop or Surface Book in shared workspaces where microlouver technology blocks side viewing beyond 30 degrees from center, the exact-fit design sits flush without interfering with webcams or sensors, and anti-glare matte finish eliminates screen reflections under office lighting
- Mobile workers who access confidential data in public settings where the 1-ounce privacy filter adds negligible weight, the included storage sleeve protects the screen during travel, and fingerprint and scratch-resistant coating maintains clarity through daily handling
- Surface users who need extended screen time with eye protection where 51% blue light reduction in the 380nm to 480nm range reduces digital eye strain, 57.5% light transmittance maintains screen brightness for readability, and full touch and pen compatibility preserves natural Surface interaction

Is a Privacy Screen Really Worth It?
A privacy screen protects sensitive data by narrowing the visible viewing angle so only the person directly in front of the display can see on-screen content. For professionals working with confidential documents, financial data, or client information in shared offices, airports, or public spaces, a privacy screen prevents visual eavesdropping without requiring software solutions or physical barriers. The StarTech 135S-PRIVACY-SCREEN adds this protection at just 1 ounce with no impact on touchscreen or pen functionality, making it a lightweight addition that keeps your Surface display private wherever you work.
