Features of some windows

Answer:

TINTS

Hint:

They can reduce glare and heat while adding a touch of color to glass surfaces. Often found in cars or buildings for privacy and UV protection.

Explanation:

The clue plays on the double meaning of "windows." Some windows in buildings have tints to reduce glare or heat, which is the literal interpretation. But it also hints at computer "windows," where "tints" could refer to color adjustments or overlays in display settings. The answer cleverly fits both everyday and tech contexts.
