Does this monitor have a matte or a gloss screen? Thanks in advance for the help.

I only had it out of the box for about 10 minutes (no DVI or HDMI port) before sending it back, but I think I remember it being matte.

The screen it's self is matte and won't be too reflective, and the bezels are glossy. Very good monitor. Very happy with it.

It's glossy like glass but not like mirror. I bought that monitor for gaming and it's awesome compare to others I had and bezel is thin

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

It's certainly not glossy but it does have sort of a frosted anti-glare coating which is most noticeable when you have a white background and text. If you are looking at a photo or video or a lot of color you don't see the coating but if all you were doing was typing documents all day it gives the white areas on the screen a very faint "textured effect" for lack of a better phrase. Having said all that, I personally don't mind it and I really like the monitor overall. In most cases if I find I'm noticing the coating at all, like while writing this, I just bump up the size of the type and everything is fine.

No it is a matte screen I have also had no problems with this monitor great color and performance watching movies, sports, gaming etc. I cannot tell you if it is better than a viewsonic model I have not tried out but I can tell you for the price I got this monitor it has well outdone my expectations. Yes there may be better monitors but probably at double the price. So unless your upgrading to a high end photo editing architectural etc monitor your not going to get better at least from my experience!

The monitor is quite matte. Very little reflection. This works well if you have a light behind you (like a window); however, there may be some slight cost of sharpness vs a glossy screen.

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!! :)

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

This is actually a gloss Monitor with an antiglare finish. So it's kind of right in between. The truer colors that a glossy screen can provide and not as much reflection from ambient light. However on bright screens it does have a somewhat odd pattern that is visible because of this.

No the screen is not matte finish, it has a very good picture and I am very satisfied with the computer

The matte display is fine. They are not glossy at all. A very good monitor for this price point.

Looks matte to me although I have seen screens which have even more of a matte finish. It is certainly not glossy like a Mac screen.

Matte, be careful when you order as I needed the glossy one as well and I ordered the wrong one. It still works it is just not as clear as the old screen, but its a back up laptop so it doesn't matter to me.
