Does this monitor have a matte or glossy screen?

I'm not sure I fully understand the distinction, but I would say there is nothing glossy about it. I see very little glare. The display seems more subdued or muted.

I believe glossy. When the computer is turned off the black screen reflects much like a mirror.

I would classify the screen as "matte" since there is no reflection off of the screen itself; however, the image on the screen is pretty bright compared to my other monitor--I need to adjust this.

The screen is matte. The advantage of having this monitor is that the color does not change by the angle of viewing. For me that was a big plus as I frequently get up from the table to view the screen from a distance. I also like the outstanding resolution. Hope that helps.

The one I was shipped is glossy. However a few sellers for this screen offer both options or state 'based on availability' in the details/description areas. If you have a preference check all the sellers before making a final decision.

glossy frame but matte screen. Took old one out, plugged this one in and turned it on light changed to blue (button under lower right corner of the screen) and it works fine straight out of the box.

Its not Glossy. But, it has a very bright display! My only downside is with the touch pad - takes some getting use to. It's not like previous Laptops. Overall a very good machine!!!!

It is an excellent display screen. Perfect for viewing graphics. It is anti-glare. Don't know what you mean by glossy??

Matte with anti-glare finish. You can find this monitor on sale for 199.99 all the time, for the money you can't beat the quality of this monitor. I bought one used it, loved it and than purchased two more.

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

High-Resolution Gloss Screen, honestly you would not want a matte finish to interfere with the display quality of this monitor. Make sure that it is compatible before purchase though, made that mistake with my iMac until the new iOS update.

Glossy. Looks nice and sharp!, I love this display. I don't have reflection issues in my room with lights on ( desk lamp and ceiling light) but not tried outside or under bright florescent lights (if need to I can check in basement where we have many florescent tubes). Next to my awesome 22" matte 1080p Samsung led LCD TV I just got (from amazon) the ASUS display is crisper. And the TV has a great display but the glossy IPS display in this ASUS rocks! *edit: I did try it in brighter light and I can see reflection if certain colors. Like if I put the entire screen blue when it was restarting and doing updates, I can see myself with bright lights on. Right not typing this under lights and the screen is white allot, I do not see any reflection.

I would consider it a matte screen. It's not high gloss like those old CRT monitors.

It has a "matte" finish meaning it greatly reduces glare, there is still glare but it's not as bad as "glossy" (aka shiny) monitors. In fact, It has almost no glare even with direct sunlight.

the screen is matte... I LOVE it and have been using it for about 3 months now.

The screen is a matte finish, not nearly as glossy as a plasma or a high contrast LCD. Resolution is decent, but is definitely a matte finish, no gloss.
