I strongly prefer matte, to the point of immediately excluding glossy from my initial selection. In my experience matte only has issues when the sun is shining directly onto it, whereas glossy will immediately glare in areas which aren't incredibly light. Got something with black on your screen? Guess what, it's suddenly a mirror! Additionally, glossy is way more susceptible to fingerprints, so you have to religiously keep cleaning them. > There's a reason macbooks, and almost every TV uses a glossy surface. I always thought it is just because it looks "premium". > Mobile phones, the devices we carry outside the most and should be most susceptible to glare issues never ever come with matte screens! Yes, and I often notice myself tilting the screen away from reflections. That's a lot harder with a desktop.
