Does this T.V. have a matte or glossy screen?

I would say semi matte it is flat but does reflect front light sources.It is more of a dull reflection than a glossy glass like look.Hope that helps.The off angle viewing is a bit of an issue as well.

I don't quite understand what you're saying. When the tv is off I'ed say the screen is matte and the frame around the tv is glossy

I never gave it any thought until the question was asked, but looking at it, in contrast to the edges surrounding the screen, I'd have to say matte. It will reflect light, but no where near as much as an older picture tube type TV.

I believe it would be considered matte. The light that is reflected is dim, not shiny like i get from my glossy laptop screen.

Hard to answer......the edges are glossy - the screen when off is matte finish. When turned on, the picture is clear and crisp. We love it and have no complaints.

I own an LG47CS570 and it has a matte finish. According to the LG website, all newer LG TVs have a matte screen to reduce glare. All LG TVs 47 inches or larger have an IPS panel, so off angle viewing should not be an issue; it certainly isn't an issue on mine.

It is not glossy, but it is not matte either. From my experience so far, i would agree with Samsung's labeling of "low reflection."

The border around the screen is shiny. The back is matte. It is a nice little TV with a good picture (at the correct angle) and good local reception using rabbit ears. So far it has been a good purchase for our intended use.

Just recieved ours a week ago and it has a matte screen. I totally forgot that it never asked for my preference when I was ordering! So I think you are right, Amazon doesn't offer the glossy. I personally like the matte better, less annoying reflection, though I've heard the glossy screens have better color, personal preference.

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.

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

Its glossy...Its like a plasma screen.... You gte some reflection from a lamp or light behind you but to me its worth it for the picture you get from this tv along with all the other features....

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 is not glossy. yes it is matte, only thing is that when the sun is hitting the screen and you are watching a movie/video that some parts are dark, you have to use your body to block the in order to see the dark parts of the video, or close the curtains.

I do find your question interesting. When I ordered I did not get a choice. The one I ordered came in Matte finish for the screen. Monitors I know of are Matte. I do Have a Dell Laptop that has a glossy screen and I find I prefer a Matte finish . You get less glare from surrounding lighting.

It is a glossy screen. Some people say it does produce reflections which it does when turned off but I have never see had an issue while I was watching it.

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.

Screen is glossy. Does a great job with 3D. 120hz i believe. Have it paired with a Dell laptop- great way to go.

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!! :)

Since its touchscreen, it is glossy. I don't know of any laptop with a matte finish that is touchscreen. I don't think that's even possible with current technology.

If you mean it has a flat or matte screen. No but i nor my son (whom I bought if for) notices. Beautiful screen when watching HD movies.

It is not a matte, but not real glossy either. I have windows on two sides of the room facing the sun, and this TV has the least glare of any TV I have had in the last 36 years. I love it.
