Why do Privacy Screen Protectors SUCK?

[@mrsilv483]

I’ve been using privacy screen protectors on my phones for the last 5 years and I love them. There’s a lot of curious people out there trying to see what are you watching or doing on your phone when it’s none of their business.

Well, the biggest drawback I faced whil using these privacy screen protectors is; you realize your battery starts getting drained a lot quicker. Why? Because you’re always on full brightness as low brightness makes it harder to see. So full brightness is 30-40% lower on a privacy screen protector.

[@Zamarae]

Great point! These comments have been really helpful. I have a cracked protector for an iPhone 10 and it’s now affecting my use. Also stores alway have the screens for phones one version lower or above haha it’s ridiculous

In defense of privacy screen protectors… Firstly, the demonstration was greatly exaggerated. Anyone who has eyes 11 inches apart probably has more pressing issues. The upper end is around 3 inches. Secondly, if you still have issues with the different pictures thing, hold your phone further from your face. This reduces the actual angular distance from eye to eye. Other than that, a solid video from a quality channel.

[@jasonv4hese602]

I love privacy screen protectors. My only problem is I only want to use them in certain scenarios like airport for example. it would be nice to have a reusable clip on or magnet reusable one so when u wanna show someone a vid or don’t need one u can take it off.

[@donfallos1659]

I dont understand how it’s draining to the eyes. I honestly feel my eyes being less fu%%ed after I started using one. And honestly these things are amazing against snoopy people. I also love the comments when people ask me if I’m schizophrenic or something for tapping a screen that’s not active.

I never noticed that before. They never hurt my eyes. I haven't used a privacy screen in years. I'm sure next time I use one, if I ever do again, it will kill my eyes...thanks haha great video as always.

[@shnuggumz]

I purchased a privacy screen protector for my iPhone, and it drove me crazy with the images jumping around as it does. The view is constantly shifting when you are looking at the phone straight on, and it causes a headache. I had to ditch it the same day I put it on, which sucks because it wasn't cheap. I wanted to love it, but they cause more issues than help.

[@rajuj7969]

[@IsaiahStern]

I use privacy protectors, I like it. I work at Walmart, and I’m using my phone around plenty of random customers, I don’t want them reading my texts. after watching the video, the “flickering image” you were talking about somehow doesn’t bother me, even though I have very sensitive eyes. I can’t even use OLED.

[@jez1232]

I just removed the privacy screen protector from my wife's iPhone 12. I should have removed it months ago. The privacy protector dulled all the colors and dulled the screen brightness. We had to crank the brightness which sucked away battery power - and even then, the screen still wasn't vibrant. We paid big bucks for the iPhone 12's impressive screen then killed all the benefits by sticking the privacy protector over it. We'll just get a normal glass protector in future - or even just leave it as is.

[@vishal_joshi24]

The privacy screen protectors have a black colour filter to them. When applied to the phone, you immediately notice the difference in you screen colour. Didn't took even 2 min to conclude that I hate them on my iPhone 12. The worse is at night time when your phone turns on the yellow tint, and the colour of your screen goes from bad to worse!

[@yawnpits]

i see no difference with mine compared to the normal screen protector though..

[@TheMrSnarf]

Monty looks so unimpressed the entire time lol. I love the bloopers at the end, So glad you started adding them.

[@MobileReviewsEh]

Honestly, I don't like the bloopers ONLY because I get tired of editing myself. When I edit myself, I know which parts are good and I don't really register when I...bloop. The bloopers started when Val started editing some of the videos and is forced to watch the whole thing straight so she cuts them out.

I too have tried a lot of different privacy screen protectors. They’re all pretty much the same...they slightly darken the phone screen. I thought I could live with a slightly darkened screen but I can’t. Even the really good ones that darken ever so slightly I still know that my content could be way better without it. I choose brighter more vibrant content over privacy.

No one does tech reviews like you sir. In a sea of copycat personalities and bland surface-level content, you perform in-depth tests and showcase exactly what the experience of using every ounce of a product is like. Will now defer to your judgement for all my tech purchase decisions (as I just did when I ordered the Mous Clarity for my new Galaxy S20. As a side note, I use Honey and it found me a coupon for $15 off, but I deleted it and used yours because I wanted to support the man who supported me with your vigorous and thorough tests. I hope others will follow suit!). Thank you so much for working so hard and producing the content you do. And please don't change your style - it will be noticed far more and will pay off.

Clearly I was on a tear of watching his videos, and simply left this comment on a video different from the one I got the coupon from. I wasn't lying about using it; the coupon was from a video he did on the Mous Clarity, which I bought after watching his review. Calling me out as if I didn't use one at all kind of misses the entire point of the comment I left. I support Aaron and his style and was simply trying to encourage others to do so as well.

Man is the Jettech as bad as it looks on the video? Cuz that is absolutely unusable. The rest look great. I’m surprised cuz I’m SUPER happy with my Jettech screen protector (I’ve always used the regular one though) just ordered a new 3 pack since my mom got an SE and she’s super clumsy and the one on my phone is already 6 years old so it has a few minor hairline cracks (can only see them under specific angles in specific lighting conditions) and some more minor cracks in a corner. It’s insane how well it’s held up to drops over the years, even ones where it lands perfectly flat on the screen, and that’s been with a VERY slim cover. Just got a new one since the old one literally crumbled away and this one actually makes the screen recessed while still being low profile, not bulky and easy to pocket. After I swap the screen protector, there’s no way that thing will ever crack. Was considering privacy glass but I don’t wanna use another brand and that just looks way too dark. This clear one is absolutely perfect.
