Screen glare? Who can tell me about the type of screen?

Kevin, I am not answering your question but I am confirming that I have the same problem with Samsung I just purchased 3 days ago. It is a complete mirror in my family room. People say plasma or lcd/led has better picture quality, but if all you can see is the reflection of the room or trees and clouds in the sky reflecting from your window, then I would say that would be a very very poor quality picture. And shouldn't you be able to enjoy your TV and look outside your window at the same time? You shouldn't have to make your room like a cave to see your TV. We love our big windows and well-lit room. Never had this problem with our previous DLP. Sorry, just venting. I'm going in the store today to look at the Mitsubishi DLP's.

Mine has a matte screen. It is the first matte screen I have had, and I love it. No glare at all.

It's definitely glossy and reflective, but I wouldn't say that there's any more glare than the original screen by itself. It's really quite unnoticeable. Unless maybe your screen brightness is all the way down and you're out in direct sunlight at noon, but then there's always the viewfinder.

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.

No, it's a 1920x1080 LG IPS panel behind glass. It is a non-glare panel but the glass on top obviously makes for glare

I don't understand why you would want a glossy screen. To me, it is an advantage to have a non-reflective screen to do away with annoying glare from windows or other light sources.

Sebastian, I take it by "glare" you are asking about bright reflections off the screen. If not, I apologize and you can quit reading. The screen is shiny glass, although I can tell its been tempered a little. I hate computer screens made of smooth glass, because of the reflections. That is probably the biggest complaint I have with this TV. Room lights will reflect off the screen. But all new TV's have shiny screens. What can you do. Many TV's have shiny bezels, which can be really annoying. This unit has a very thin matte bezel. No reflections. And bottom line, this is the best picture of any TV I've ever owned.

Matte. I've *never* had any problem with glare, but then I don't have any lights above or behind me either.

Well, you can't have it both...Either it is hd or anti glare. I opted for anti glare because it is easier to read the screen in the sun but you lose some of the hd. Hope this helped.

i personaly haven't had any problem with glare, have great picture, color, but i suppose it depends on where you set it up, how much light comes in

Yes, there is glare, but I tell you what, the plasma picture is a superior picture, darker darks and I found a way to reduce the reflection. Too bad they are stopping production of them.

I find glare a problem as well. As one poster says, "the reflection is not a bother at all", well, that makes me wonder is there is still some reflection. I have a matte screen now and love it - no glare even with direct light. I'd love to upgrade my TV to 1080p but can't seem to find screens that are matte any more. So frustrating when manufactures do stuff like this. They should at least make it an option.

You will get some glare. Still worth it given the led screen is protected and looks not bad

The monitor does have a lot of glare. While it rarely creates an inconvenience to me, when it does I just close a blind or curtain.

It is a non-glossy, matte screen, which is usually what people refer to as anti-glare. However, I prefer the glossy screens because they look sharper.

The "glare" (or reflection) is pretty minimal unless the room you're viewing it in is super-bright (as in tons of artificial lighting) or extremely sunny (as in a wall of windows with direct sunlight coming through it). Otherwise it's not a big deal. You can deal with it simply enough by adjusting the screen brightness in the display menu, or pull the curtains or shades closed. Considering the quality of the picture and the price it's no big deal to live with.

Yes there is more glare than I expected and I have tried turning the screen at different angles and angling the blinds.
