Speaking as a Grandmother, I would like the hd since my vision isn't as great as it use to be!

If inside, I'd go with the HD. I ordered the HD for a couple of Samsung Galaxy tablets and just ordered the matte for a couple of Samsung S3's and cutting down on glare outside. I'll know more about the difference then, but that is why I ordered it that way. And personally, I have had a good experience with them staying on the tablets and getting the bubbles out and they work great. Haven't rec'd the cell phone covers yet, but ordered same brand because of how well the Tech Armor worked on my tablets and how easy they installed. Watch the video of how to install -- that will help big time. If inside, I'd go with the HD.

as I had previously stated, the Tech Armor screen protector does not stay on the tablet, it comes off with the slightest touch...also the bubbles are impossible to remove...save your money...I returned the unused sheets...and am still out the money...no refunds because I opened it...

Generally it works well but there is some degradation in the screen sensitivity. I would advise you to carefully apply the screen following instructions (which were good) and carefully smoothing out the small bubbles during application. The anti-glare improvement is just so-so.

Yes. That is what I have. I had more than a little trouble getting the screen to be lint free before installing .... and the air bubbles drove me crazy. After only a few hours I yanked it off and chalked it up to experience. I should have gotten the anti-glare screen in the first place.

The anti-glare screen protector is just a little darker then the clear so as not to have a glare,but both are well worth the money.If you hold both scren protectors up to the light it will clearly see the difference between them

I'm writing via one of these monitors right now. I would describe them as matte. Mine (I have two) sit on my desk which is perpendicular to a window. I usually pull the shades down on the window most of the way when I'm using my monitors, but not because of glare, just because it's hard to see on almost any monitor with sunlight falling directly on them. I never have to turn off the overhead light to use them at night. I would not describe these monitors as having a glare problem at all. Overall I like these monitors very much.

I've had this screen protector for some time now and have not noticed a glare. But I must say I've only used it indoors and have not used it outdoors. Hope this helps you.

It is visible. It has to be in order to be anti-glare. But I wouldn't say it ruins the HD aspects of the screen. Think of a very light window tint on a car window...can you tell it's there? Sure. Does it "ruin" your view of the outside? No.The change is so very minor that it really doesn't make what I consider a noticeable difference...until you go outside in bright sunlight and are actually able to see your screen.Any small degradation of the sharpness and vibrancy of the screen is much more than offset by the ability to actually see the phone in bright lighting conditions.

The protector I bought was just for protection of the screen. I seldom use my tablets in the sun. They do make anti-glare screen protectors but I have found that these usually give a rainbow effect which makes seeing the screen hard to use in normal light. I can't speak for the experience of others with anti-glare shields just my own. Hope this helps.

The screen is shows no glare and i have 3 windows in the room? U will b very pleased with this t. V! Its the best picture compared to any ! Ive had several . Dont worry ?

I'm not going to lie, I never really had a glare problem before. The backlighting on my tablet off-set any surface glare I had. It definitely doesn't make it worse!

Without having tried the anti-glare, I can't say which is better..but we got the HD and it basically looks the same as it did before applying.

The additional protection is worth a few extra bucks - but I feel the same way Patricia does. I'd rather have the MilitaryShield- it sounds like it is made of better material, but my thoughts are: if it is so resistant to any damage, than why offer a lifetime supply? Why dont they specify whether it is or is not anti-glare? and why the large price diff?

I would argue that the glare is a non issue altogether. I really think people who complain about glare are simply LCD/LED fanboys. My unit is in a sun-drenched room with wrap-around ceiling to floor windows and I've never had an issue with glare. I do need to close the blinds in the day, but that's the tradeoff for a superior picture from a display that doesn't double as a neon flashlight. So in sum, screen brightness can be an issue, but for me that's easily resolved with the blinds. Glare has never been an issue for me. I continue to stand by my initial statement that this is the finest screen I've ever viewed when broken in and calibrated properly.

Thanks for writing, first and foremost I would like to tell you that I first purchased the HD high Defintion version which I loved, however it got dirty too fast and was glary, then I ordered the anti finger print version which looks cloudy at first but dont be alarmed it is very clear when you put it on and I feel it has a bit more thickness to it for more protection. Now as far as putting it on it is very easy to place on the screen once you have read instructions and perhaps watched the video, please make sure you clean the surface of your device or wipe it down with a damp not wet cloth or napkin like a lens cleaner and then place it on accordingly to instructions. If anything goes wrong Tech Armor does stand by their product, just take your time and if ou get one or two minor bubbles which may happen as it did to me at first it some how irones itself out if you go over it with a credit card like card board which the item comes with, Please write if any other questions, I ll try to help you the best I can, also it has life time warranty. Thank You.

I would say it reduce more than 60% of glare, assuming there is a light source directly shine on to the screen. It helps a lot when you are using your laptop under direct sunlight; also you would see no glare at all if you use it indoor!

I put an anti glare protective screen over the griffin screen protector. But of course you lose some graphics quality, but not much.

Lol I had to suffer the same thing. The matte one is really nice if you dont want a shiny screen with a million fingerprints but it kinda makes the screen blurry. I'd say get the HD with impact protection
