is the display glossy?

Nope not glossy. No thick anti glare coating either that you will find on the Dells.

No. It's a good monitor for the price, but the stand is not very well made and the display screen does not run all the way to the bezel there is an area that does not display, but for the price, I don't think you can beat it.

The screen is a non-reflective coated surface. The frame is a matte finish. The color balance out-of the box favors incandescent lighting environments with color presets to counter fluorescent lighting. The Antec Bias Lighting works well as an accessory item, (though may need help with the adhesive backing, pre clean back of monitor near midpoint with alcohol, the LED strip may still fall off over time.) for typical color correction environments (Dark or dim environmental lighting). The factory temperature is 6500Kelvin EDID works as do the color profiles for windows. Factory calibrated sRGB (WideGamut). The screen is a non-reflective coated surface. The frame is a matte finish.

No, the display is not glossy. Unlike conventional screens on regular monitors that are glossy, this one is not. Reflections on the screen are almost non-existent. You have to look for certain angles at which you can catch some faint reflections on the screen. It truly is a great display for photography/image processing.

No... It's got a matt finish. Images are bright and clear. There are no reflections from room lighting or sunlight.

Glossy finish not sure of resolution. I didn't notice much of a difference from original screen

Yes, it is clear. I play PS4 on it and it looks great. I also do a lot of work on it. I ended up buying 4 of these monitors because I liked them so much. Keep in mind they do have a glossy screen, some people complain about the glare on a glossy screen, personally I could care less because glossy screens have color that are richer and they look better for gaming. I can't stand matte non-glossy monitors myself, the viewing angles are also excellent with these.

It must be matt. Well, it looks matt! Definitely not high gloss.It's a really nice monitor.:)))

Technically glossy, but there is a coating that acts as if it were somewhat matte. Side angle is acceptable IMO. Have yet to use it in a really bright room, however I'm sure there are varying definitions of a bright room, but I wouldn't think for a netbook of this size you'd be disappointed.

The screen is glossy. The picture you are referencing is the back of the screen. Hope this helps.

It's a matte finish. But as good as the display is, that's not the best thing about this laptop. The sound is fantastic!

I've never thought of a monitor as matte or glossy but I'd say that it's certainly not glossy. Btw, I like this laptop very much but not thrilled with Windows 8, though I am getting used to it.

I am not certain if it is Matte or Glossy. I can tell you that we have ours mounted on the wall in our bedroom, and when the main light is on, it does have a glare on the screen that can make it difficult to see. Once we turn down the light, or turn it off and use a lamp, the picture is excellent.

The one I got was glossy. Looked better than the original. Unfortunately my computer got stolen and I ended up having to buy a entire new Toshiba. lol

it is matted, but not dull like old LCD screens. The frame is glossy plastic.There is very little glare compared to a glossy screen. I am staring at the thing as I am typing. I would post a photo if I could

It is glossy. I think the brighter the picture needs a glossy screen, it reflected so bad though I returned it. However, I bought a Samsung and its gloss screen is just about as bad, even though both have great pictures.

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

I would assume glossy. My husband and I LOVE this television. We have not been disappointed at all. I hope that you plan to buy because the price is great and the tv has exceeded our expectations.

It is more of a matte vs glossy. Background reflection is minimal. Is a good monitor.

The screen is definitely glossy and has a reflective surface. It is not a matte screen (like the Kindle Paperwhite--for example--has) and I can see reflections clearly in it. However, the display is sharp and readable to me. On average, I spend 3 or 4 hours a day looking at the screen and the reflectiveness does not bother me.
