Neither. It is not matte, nor shinny. I would say it is a matte finish with a sheen. Definitely not glossy.

Gloss clear. There is no matte finish or other film that filters light or glare.

I'm sorry, but I don't know... I got the gloss yellow and blue, but I think that matte finish may be a little better. No evidence to back that up since I haven't seen or had the opportunity to have any contact with the matte bumpers, but that is my thoughts on that. Sorry I can't be of more help. :-/

I would describe the one I received as "shiny" so I'll say "gloss". FYI, I found a less expensive local source subsequently...

The ream I bought was not glossy. I don't like glossy anymore because it catches too much glare in a room with windows.

Gloss - so it looks great (just like the glass). However if you are looking for something to help with glare, this isn't it.

Well, I don't use them often, but I THOUGHT they were matte. Wrong! They're shiny! It sounds like maybe they've sold both kinds. Good luck, Scott!

Travis, as Jeremy states these are very clear and of high quality. If you are looking for something that is Antiglare we also sell these screen protectors for the Nexus 5. The Antiglare ones though are not that clear. I hope this all helps. Best, Tech Armor Support

Go to 3M site and read their tech bulletin on 1080. They specifically tell you which to use. Of course, theirs, but they also recommend a meguiars product too.ONLY on the gloss 1080--not satin or matte!!If you have satin or matte, I'd use Aerospace 303.

It's glossy. Just like the apple 27" cinema displays. I have 3 of them in my photography studio. They are awesome and a great value!

It's certainly not glossy but it does have sort of a frosted anti-glare coating which is most noticeable when you have a white background and text. If you are looking at a photo or video or a lot of color you don't see the coating but if all you were doing was typing documents all day it gives the white areas on the screen a very faint "textured effect" for lack of a better phrase. Having said all that, I personally don't mind it and I really like the monitor overall. In most cases if I find I'm noticing the coating at all, like while writing this, I just bump up the size of the type and everything is fine.

It's amazing how all the answers here are different. Glossy! Not glossy! Rubbery! Hard! Smooth!

Matte, but you can get regular. I suggest getting the little sample thingy, both come in it therefore you can choose what works best. I love it!

I'm not sure, but it is 'glossy', which is what I prefer. This absolutely the best monitor I have ever purchased. No dead pixals, no bleeding. The price is unbelievable for the quality. I did not ask for special shipping and was told at order time it could be one to two months, but I got it in three days. The stand is not real strong, but I don't move mine around, so it works fine for me. I do software development and there is no question that it paid for itself in improved productivity in the first 30 days.

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.
