Tempered film, water condensation film, frosted film, anti-peeping film, anti-blue light film - there are far more types of membrane materials on the market than one might imagine, each solving different problems and at its own cost. This special topic is broken down in four sections: "principle - advantage - cost - applicable scenarios".
Before determining the type you need, answer two questions first: Is your primary concern protection, comfort or privacy? How much picture quality are you willing to sacrifice for this demand? The decision tree can be found on the purchase comparison page.
A quick overview of key terms
Tempered glass
Tempered glass, after undergoing chemical or physical strengthening treatment, forms a compressive stress layer on its surface, thereby achieving impact and scratch resistance that is far superior to that of ordinary glass. ...

Frosted film
The frosted film changes specular reflection to diffuse reflection through the microstructure of its surface, thereby preventing fingerprints and reflection, but at the cost of clarity. ... (Focus on this page: Membrane Material Type Special Topic: Comprehensive Comparison of Four Common Solutions)
Water coagulation film
Water condensation film is a protective film based on flexible materials such as TPU. It has good extensibility and can cover curved surfaces, but its protective performance and optical properties are weaker than those of glass film. ...

Anti-peeping film
The anti-peeping film uses a louvered microstructure that only allows light to pass through from the front Angle, darkening the picture from the side view, to protect the privacy of the screen. ...

Hujingtie VisionGuard (Category Definition)
Hujingtie VisionGuard is a screen visual protection category proposed by Woowhead: with the core feature of "physical protection + optical visual optimization" dual protection synergy, it is different from tempered films that only provide physical protection. ...
