Both options are available, if you purchase once you are making that payment. You should be able to send us a note letting us know which one you need. Or you can always email as soon as payment has been submitted.

The screen does not reflect so guess it is glossy. It has a fixed slight tilt.

It is glossy, however I haven't had any issues with glare as the screen is bright enough when it is on I don't notice it!

I guess I would say glossy. I don't have any issues with glare, but I also have it in an inner room where I don't have direct light on it.

I believe it's glossy. I never got it to work (issue with ribbon cable). Decided to buy a new laptop, instead.

The one I was shipped is glossy. However a few sellers for this screen offer both options or state 'based on availability' in the details/description areas. If you have a preference check all the sellers before making a final decision.

I would say matte, but there are supposedly different versions of the screen. My two are matte.

I would call it a matte finish. Has a slight shine to it . But not high gloss... Definitely not flat

It's matte. There's no glare. I have had mine for about 4 or 5 months now and it works awesome. Side viewing is excellent. For the money there is no better monitor out there at this time. The only weak point is the monitor speakers, but I know of no monitor speakers that sound any good. I use my own speaker system. This monitor performs very well in all types of different lighting.

It's a matte finish. If you use it on slate as I did, it really brings out the color! You will be happy with the results. Let me know.

Mine was glossy too. I asked them before purchasing it because I didn't want to risk getting a matte finish and they said that glossy finish were the only ones they had left then. It wouldn't hurt to check with the seller now again though I guess. I really liked my screen and the packaging was really good! Good luck!! :)

Not glossy. Not true matte but more of a satin finish. Doesn't seem to glare though. My wife uses it as a second screen for graphics design and likes it very much.

I'm not sure, but it is 'glossy', which is what I prefer. This absolutely the best monitor I have ever purchased. No dead pixals, no bleeding. The price is unbelievable for the quality. I did not ask for special shipping and was told at order time it could be one to two months, but I got it in three days. The stand is not real strong, but I don't move mine around, so it works fine for me. I do software development and there is no question that it paid for itself in improved productivity in the first 30 days.

I would call it glossy. However it is really clear. I did not realize how dull the matte one I had before really was...

The black version is not glossy. It does seem to have a sort of glossy feeling on the sides but even that is not much. So to sum up, it is mostly not glossy.
