Hi, it's not anti glare, it is not transparent (only translucent)and wil only degrade your TV image.

Other than some reflections from the window that's on the opposite wall from the TV, I've never had any glare issues with this TV. My living room can get very bright during the day with two large windows and a sliding glass door, especially with the shades opened... so take that info however you would like.

Glare is not a problem. We purchased because our grandson took out 2 tv's with toys leaving his grip. The only thing I notice is that the natural "dust" still gets on the tv, so I remove the protector and dust. I recommend this product!

I have only seen one tiny little blemish on my frame, but I try to ignore it b/c I just got the TV and I love it. Hopefully it won't spread or happen to any other part of the frame.It seems that manufacturers make things so obviously cheap these days! I understand they have to make a profit, but by sacrificing build and overall product quality is going to lead to their own downfall as people will stop buying shoddy products eventually. I digress, I agree that this TV is too expensive to be having so many "stupid" problems that could have easily been resolved. I am NOT putting tape on my brand new TV with a MSRP of $3,000.

I would have to say yes. only because I've never had problems with glare but have always had the protector on my screen. I've never tried it with out it. i would bet it again.

The 'glare" is rather substantial in certain light conditions. I did find an anti-glare screen overlay by Vikuiti ( sic ) available via Amazon which is of some benefit. Love this camera.

I presently do not use a non-glare shield but am considering it. I mostly use my windows surface indoors, but if you use yours outside, it is probably a good idea at minimal cost.

E-cloth recommends NOT using their other cloths on flat screen TVs, but they do sell a Screen Cleaning & Protection Pack - it works beautifully!!

I have it in a real well lit room and glare is not an issue unless direct sunlight hits it, which it can do a certain short periods of the day. Dont think you have much to worry about. Over all am real happy within the TV in the 6 months or so i have had it.

When I had this TV there was glare from our lamp in the living room when we watched at night. The technical solution was to turn off the lamp. :)

you ca not. since it is glass. it is like owning a plasma tv great picture, but the glass panel produces glare or reflections. you could put an anti glare film on top of the glass if you want. it works but seems a bit over kill, but works.

No, it is not non-glare. That being said, we have it situated right next to a window and still have no problem viewing. The screen is shiney and has a glare, but I suppose it's reflective quality is not as bad as some others I have seen. Even with the light coming in from the window, we can view the set from any angle.

Hmm, I don't link the anti-glare products as they add a grainy look to it. Not as sharp as the HD one.

We're extremely happy with our 60" plasma value ($740 after shipping/tax), however, we had to place it in a dark room where we could view the superior images. The reflectiveness of the glare can't be overstated. It would be difficult to get used to, if at all.

Yes and No. I installed this film onto 3 smaller 36'x48" windows. I am glad that I had someone helping me, as laying the film onto the windows would be more difficult alone. Prep is everything with this product. Make sure to have either their installation solution or make your own, you will find that it is much easier to install when the film and glass is very wet. If you want to make your own Google it, it isn't hard to find how to make a suitable alternative. Finally, I can't stress it enough, clean the window before you do anything. Use windex and a raxor blade to get everything. Any little speck of dirt will be amplified 10x when it is under the film. Invest in a very sharp blade. A blade that is not sharp will make trimming the edges difficult, and ragged. PROS: 1) It is fairly forgiving. You can pull it away and restart a couple times. 2) It does cut the glare in the room well. 3) Once you understand how it reacts while being installed it becomes much easier to manipulate into position. 4) It really isn't very expensive, so don't be too affraid to give it a shot. Especially if purchased from Amazon. Cons: 1) You have to make sure that you have the right tools for the job. Their installation solution is great, but the snap off blade in the kit is not very good. I found an exacto knife worked much better. 2) Be prepared to waste some film. The material is forgiving, but there is a learning curve. 3) Once installed, the film is Blue, not Charcoal. It didn't matter in my application, but it is something to consider. 4) There will be a little mess. The installation solution that is pressed out has to go somewhere. Just have a towel handy to wipe up as you go. 5) It is not perfectly clear. Because of the thickness of the film it does have some distortion when looking through it. If you need opticaly clear film, you would be much better off using the thinner, adheasive backed tint film. Hope this helps.

I don't know if you made your purchase yet or not, but I'd check out the difference in glare/reflections from the screens. I have heard the Sony has a non-glare screen, but most plasmas have a glass screen that reflects background light and can be distracting.
