Is this a glossy or matte screen, and what technical term(s) tells you whether it's glossy or matte?

It is matte. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the description to suggest which it is... that is why I mentioned that it is a matte screen in my review. Hope this helps.

It is matte, but matte in a little bit satin. Screens are never 100 % matte

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.

The screen is semi-matte. It is glossier than the old matte screens but nothing like the mirror gloss of many other models and brands. This was a concern of mine and with this set it is not an issue.

It is a matte screen. Terrific monitor. I sent the first one back because of a huge white spot in the middle of the screen. Amazon was great in sending out a replacement which is a great monitor.

The screen is glossy. The picture you are referencing is the back of the screen. Hope this helps.

I am not certain if it is Matte or Glossy. I can tell you that we have ours mounted on the wall in our bedroom, and when the main light is on, it does have a glare on the screen that can make it difficult to see. Once we turn down the light, or turn it off and use a lamp, the picture is excellent.

I believe it is Matte...not like an ipad screen. Do not get a lot of glare. Hope this helps.

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

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.

Screen is not glossy, however, it looks really good. I had to turn off screen to verify what type of finish it had since the video is so clear. Just to be clear, glossy to me is it looks like glass, good shine, this screen when off looks like matte in my opinion.

It is a Matt screen sorry resident see your email. It works great. My other one was glossy and a little brighter. The Matt is nice though. A lot less reflection. Plugs right in pretty easy to install.

Hi Lorien H., Thank you for your inquiry. If the item in the Ad states that it's a "Matte" screen, you should receive a matte screen. We hope this information has helped, please let us know if you have any other questions and we'll be happy to help you. Regards, Glaiza

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

When they mention glossy in the video they are talking about the stand and frame. I think that is what you are referring to. The screen itself is not a glass covered gloss type screen.
