Would it be fair to say that the Matte protector is more smudge/glare proof, but the HD protector is more crisp/clear?

That's hard to say, because it's all really subjective. Honestly, I wouldn't believe anyone that said their product is smudge free because that's never true. I can smudge anything that claims to be smudge free. Haha! As far as the HD protector being more crisp/clear, I would say that's subjective too because not all people have the same eyes. But on a serious note, I only purchased this product because as a screen protector, I know it works. The iphone has been dropped from a height about 3 - 4 feet, several times now since the purchase, and it has held up.

Hello,These particular screen protectors will be more glossy than having a matte finish. I still recommend them to anyone but it will become slippery once you touch it enough, only due to your fingers releasing oil. But you can always wipe it off for better results.- Louis

Without having tried the anti-glare, I can't say which is better..but we got the HD and it basically looks the same as it did before applying.

Since the galaxy is HD you will want the HD protector. I have never noticed a difference with the screen protector off and then on.

Mine is clear and it's fine. Matte seems to take away from the crispness of the screen.

I like the clear better since the colors pop more and everything is sharper. I had an anti-glare screen protector and it made my screen appear much darker and more dull.

Many choices, yes! I can share my experience with two of those. The first type of protector I bought was the matte anti-glare, which I used for many months. It was okay, and performed as promised, but I kind of missed that crisp, super-clear look, so the replacement I bought was HD clear and I love it. Of course, it doesn't offer the glare protection, but it's a trade-off. I feel no need for impact protection or privacy, so I can't comment on those. Hope that helps.

I don't have any experience with the matte, but I have no complaints bout the clear one. Haven't had any problems with glare, etc.

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

Slightly, there could be a film added to prevent more glare. The screen is matt.

The I got was not Matte -- they will almost always say that in the add. BTW, I have an anti-glare on my smartphone and while it does cut down on glare, the display still gets "washed out" in sunlight

The matte side is better in all situations and is the side that changes the viewing angle of the screen, offering more privacy. The glossy side just makes the screen darker.

If you mean matte apposed to clear------it is sparkling clear. In all the use I give my tablet, the screen never smudges or scratches.

Hi there, its actually gloss clear not matte. I tried the matte and didn't like the resolution with it.

It's sort of in between. You might consider it a matte ( reduced glare) finish. It has good transparency....but is not glossy (shiny) like a piece of plastic....like you would find on a phone case as a screen protector

Well, you can't have it both...Either it is hd or anti glare. I opted for anti glare because it is easier to read the screen in the sun but you lose some of the hd. Hope this helped.

I would order the clear one if you want it to look as if there is nothing on the screen. The matte finish - the one I purchased - is definitely visible in my opinion.
