Does this TV have a GLOSSY or MATTE screen? Looking for one that will do well in a bright room with lots of windows.

Marie, The screen on my 65" Sharp T.V. has a glossy finish to the screen. It does reflect light but it also has the best picture quality I have ever seen on a T.V.

It is more of a matte screen, as it is LED/LCD. Most of the glossy screens are found on plasma TV's.

It's actually far less glossy than other TVs and I have it sitting in my bright living room.. !! I would suggest go with c650 as I have similar distance between TV and the couch. Also, having Pandora and few other apps (weather etc ) is def a plus when you have it.. Look around and see if you can get even a better price.. I bought it from $1439 2 months ago..

There are slight reflections depending on the lighting in the room. The screen is like a matte finish and not shiney. We have ours in a finished basement with light coming in from the glass block and I can see the reflection of the windows slightly. Nothing major that affects the picture. We are quite pleased with it. Hope this answers your question. Also it is self adjusting to the lighting around it. Last night I began watching a program (had just turned the tv on) and I thought it looked too dark. Within seconds the tv adjusted itself so that the picture was perfect, color and brightness.

No, the screen is gloss finish and does show reflection. It's not as bad as another Samsung gloss screen I have for some reason, but it's not non-glare. That's my only dislike of this TV, and I bought two of them at Christmas.

I second Mithun: "The tv has a high gloss to it. So you will get reflection. Even on a matte screen, but glossy is worse. Now, if you block out some of that light - it's worth it. The TV will truly shine at night. The contrast and color saturation is awesome:

Very reflective but bright. It would work fine in a bright room BUT, any direct light would reflect off the screen. It is very hard to find a matte screen with a super bright picture.

It's glossy but I don't think any more so than other TVs. It's in a bedroom though so it's usually on at night only but I've never noticed or been distracted by a glare.

I've seen Matte finishes on some TV's. Check out Walmart if you've got one.

It's matte but not the hazy kind. We're still loving the TV. Great picture.

More glossy than matte, but not as glossy as some of the plasma TV's I've seen.

I had a matte screen LED TV and I'd say the difference is big with regard to reflection. However, the picture quality is far better on this TV, and I only complain about the glare when I'm sitting directly in the light reflection path. It's like you have a mirror on the wall, and you stand in a position where you can see the direct light from the sun. Just move to a different position, and you've got perfect vision. Another way to avoid this is obviously to close the curtain where the light is coming directly to the TV. It's not annoying at all unless your house is fully lit and full of windows!

I would say it is a matte finish. I have it in my family room with a sliding glass door and I do not have any problems with glare or reflection. Colors and picture are beautiful and sharp. I normally sit directly in front, but have sat to the side at 30+ degrees and picture is still excellent.

I think it's more between matte and semi gloss. I can get some reflections on the screen with the TV off, but I don't notice them with the TV on. I have my set wall mounted in a bedroom.

Yes. Lots of glare on screen. If not going in a dark room look for another tv

Plasm tv's have amazing color. But this tv has glare problems. So be fowarned. Great colors, but keep it in a dark room.

It is matte. The review on CNET says that the t.v. does a good job in bright rooms.
