Does this product reduce glare when using your laptop outdoors or in bright light?

No. You need a matte finish screen protector. But you won't be happy with that.

If you use the matte side it will be reduced a bit, but not too much. It won't reduce glass on the glossy side.

This is a double-sided product: one side is glossy, one side is matte. The matte side does indeed reduce the glare a bit. However, I found that the matte side distorted text and reduced overall image quality. So I'm using the glossy side, which I don't think is reducing the glare at all.

I don't think the screen is non-glare. You don't really want to place it facing sun light.

It blocks out maybe around 15-20% of the light from the screen when viewed perpendicularly from the screen. Its main use is to deter nosy eyes from the sides. If 15% reduction of glare from the screen is good enough for you, then it probably gives u a 2 in 1 deal. ;)

Same as previous answer. Helps a bit, maybe. No real noticeable difference as far as glare is concerned. HOWEVER, there is a MATTE FINISH Illumishield that is probably better. I tried to cancel my order for the original but it had already shipped. I think the matte finish is specifically designed to reduce glare.

Not so much. It will eliminate most of the glare, but the brightness of the sun can still make it difficult to see the screen.

Yes it does a great job of cutting glare. I am looking at it now and don't see any glare from behind me in the room.

It cuts light glare a lot, but not completely. It's like a pair of medium sunglasses, or tinted window in, say, the back of a mini van. I used it mainly to reduce fading. I'm not sure it would be enough if the sun is shining directly onto the face of the monitor, but it would darken the room significantly.

Glare, no, but it will wash out the picture depending on how strong your lighting is

I have had my camera out in bright sunlight, and I can see the shot no matter what's around me. In strong sunlight around highly reflective surfaces like snow, concrete, and sand you might get a glare. I sometimes have to compensate for glare by changing my angle of view of the camera's back (that is, I have to move my head a little to see) or shading it with my hand. But given this one caveat, it's fine to see.

Yes, it will give a glare. However, the farther from the glass, the less pronounced it will be.

No, it does not increase the glare when used outdoors. It's the same with or without the screen protector.

If you had your screen protector on, you'll probably brighten the screen about two to three notches to obtain the same results as having it with no screen protector.Edit: But the anti-glare feature makes it so that you don't need to turn up the brightness very high to overcome the glare anymore.

there is no noticable tint so brightness is the same. i did not try it outside in bright sunlight.it would easily cover small scratches, i suspect any any screen saver would do that

As for me it helps a lot.I wear eyeglasses and the anti glare in the screen potector minimized the effect of the screen in my eyes...

yeah the glare is bad. I'd check out what Tom said cause I did a quick search and found several listed for specific laptops/brands but not for this one. Hope you find one that works.

Main purpose of this privacy screen is to protect your information displayed on the screen from the person who is setting beside you. I may reduce the glare from the screen when you are seeing it directly but not sure that this is the best product that I am aware of for reducing eye strain from laptop use.

Yes the brightness is diminished but being able to see the screen when taking photographs outdoors was worth the trade off. The screen is easily removable for use indoor and can be reapplied any time needed for glare.
