Todd, I am sorry to say that I returned the monitor 3 days after I received it. I'm a heating & air conditioning contractor. I wanted a 32" screen to be able to see a larger portion of a mechanical plan all at one time. I have two 21" monitors. I replaced one of them with the 32" monitor. In order to get the resolution good enough to read a drawing I would have to zoom into the drawing to the same point as what I could see on the other 21" monitor. My 21" monitors are Acer with MUCH better overall display than the 32" NEC. I was disappointed the NEC 32" monitor didn't work out for me. However, Amazon handled the return in an excellent manner. Hope that helps. Todd, I am sorry to say that I returned the monitor 3 days after I received it. I'm a heating & air conditioning contractor.

No it is a matte screen I have also had no problems with this monitor great color and performance watching movies, sports, gaming etc. I cannot tell you if it is better than a viewsonic model I have not tried out but I can tell you for the price I got this monitor it has well outdone my expectations. Yes there may be better monitors but probably at double the price. So unless your upgrading to a high end photo editing architectural etc monitor your not going to get better at least from my experience!

Screen is glossy. Does a great job with 3D. 120hz i believe. Have it paired with a Dell laptop- great way to go.

The screen is matte. Best contrast ratio I have seen in a monitor. Best gaming monitor I have owned.

I do find your question interesting. When I ordered I did not get a choice. The one I ordered came in Matte finish for the screen. Monitors I know of are Matte. I do Have a Dell Laptop that has a glossy screen and I find I prefer a Matte finish . You get less glare from surrounding lighting.

Yes, the AOC E2460S is matte. It's been a good monitor so far with no issues.

The screen is matte and not glossy at all. I have bright lights directly above my screen and sit about 2 feet away from it, and there's no glare on the screen. The frame is glossy, though; the only place I notice it is at the bottom, where it's a little more than 1" wide. The frame on the top and sides is very thin and the gloss isn't noticable there. Hope this helps!

It is a glossy finish. I'm not sure what the resolution is, but it's comparable to the original screen in the dv7.

it is matted, but not dull like old LCD screens. The frame is glossy plastic.There is very little glare compared to a glossy screen. I am staring at the thing as I am typing. I would post a photo if I could

It's matte finish. You don't have to worry about annoying by screen reflection for this TV.

It has a matte screen and I have the color calibration that is made for and what I see is what I get. I'm very happy with this monitor.

I'd say it's closer to a matte finish. I have had mine since August 2013 and I've been happy so far with the quality, although I haven't dropped it or anything. It fit perfectly on my laptop. It did catch at the back a bit at first, making a clicking sound when I opened it, but it went away very quickly with use. I put pictures behind it for decoration. It's not so matte as to make it hard to see through. Hope this helps!

Sorry for the delay, I was out of town. The screen looks kinda like a matte surface. It is not what I consider to be a glossy. I have had this screen for about a year and it works just fine. Thanks!

No it is not glossy, I really do like this monitor, the only negative that I have found is to turn the monitor on or off, the button(s) are located under the screen, and I have to keep pushing from the underside of the screen, and I am concerned that the monitor will start to "lean" to the side after prolonged use. But that still does remain to be seen. I hope this is helpful to you
