Default Privacy Screen Protector Review - Restrict viewing of phone screen from the side!

So if you guys are wondering what a privacy screen protector is, its basically one in which restricts viewing of the phone screen, so basically if anyone is standing or sitting next to you whilst you were on your phone, and they had a look at your screen, then all they would see is a black screen

So the one I ordered really cheap was this

It arrived pretty promptly and applied it the standard method, clean screen, use a credit card and slowly apply pressure as your placing the screen protector to ensure no air bubbles

What do I think? Well the protector is relatively thick and scratch resistant which means I have extra comfort in knowing its safer from drops etc. The screen protector is a fairly good size, easily covers the screen. It does its job perfectly, from side views, the screen can't be seen whatsoever

Disadvantages - I'm used to having my phone lying on the desk next to me, and so if I want to quickly see any notifications, I actually have to pick up the phone and bring it face to face with me, instead of usually just glancing across at it
2) It does reduce brightness so you need to bump it up a little, however the screen protector is described as having 99% UV protection and i've tested it outdoors and I could see the screen okay

Overall I'd recommend this, its cheap, you can't go wrong with the thick protection and the privacy factor is another bonus!
