is the screen clear in direct sun light ?

No. It's difficult to see it on daylight. Anyhow as the route to take is orange in color, you can see where you need to go while riding Overall I consider it very important piece of equipment to ride and for sure excellent cost- benefit device. I can't afford and I consider ridiculous the price of a Garmin Zumo, which doesn't guarantee clear reading neither.

Yes Jack, the LCD screen works great even in bright sunlight as long as you are not wearing polarized sunglasses while using it. The 3 inch LCD screen is awesome!

All gloss screens have this issue, but without direct light (sunlight, bright overhead) it is fine.

Great question, I own two of them and they are matte. Works as well as you can expect in a Sunlit room. Works even better when used facing a darker seating area with light coming from rear of monitor - instead of on the screen itself. Screen lighting option lets you tune screen for best view.

Sometimes, but there is a setting called "Sunny weather" on the LCD that makes it much better. It makes the color look a little off (on the screen, not in the actual images), but for sunny days, it's very effective.

I haven't had any difficulty using it in sunlight. I haven't taken it to snow or the beach yet though. However, since I haven't noticed an issue or even thought twice about it, I don't anticipate any problems. I haven't even turned up the LCD brightness all the way (no need)!

yes, it does, the problem with the unit is that when it is bright and sunny you can't see the screen.

Mine is clear and it's fine. Matte seems to take away from the crispness of the screen.

The screen is 100% clear on the iPhone. It does, however, have a bluish tinge when exposed to the sun. This is noticeable to me when the screen is not activated, but so long as the screen is on, there doesn't appear to be distortion of the color. Bright sun makes most LCD screens more difficult to read, but I haven't noticed any changes in readability in bright conditions compared to my display prior to using this screen protector.

This monitor has a matte finish on the screen, so the glare is minimal, even in very bright conditions. However, as with all monitors, it's best to not have a bright light source directly behind it, particularly the sun. I use this in a room that gets really bright afternoon sun, and the screen shows just fine. The wall on which this monitor is located is perpendicular to the wall with the window, so the sun does not actually hit the screen. For your use, this monitor will be more than sufficient.

The screen is glossy as it is a capacitive touch screen. The glare can be pretty bad, but on full brightness the screen should always be seeable. Just don't sit with the sun over your shoulder.

No-this screen does nothing for the sun....even with that said, I HIGHLY recommend it!!!!!!

Not really. I don't notice it. It has zinc oxide which few other sun screens have -- as a result it is one the best for a heavy 'sun user' like me who plays golf and gardens. It is pricy but well worth it.

Absolutely not. the screen has been clear and sharp for me for the last few months since I bought it. It is also allowing my screen to really look bright compared to other brands that gave my phone a rather dull flat loo.

Mine is for the most part clear but not completely. Works well for looking at it directly. Dims well.

No. But the tilt screen helps by allowing you to hold it at angles so you get no direct glare

No, it has a bit of sheen to it due to the healing ability. That said, I have no issues reading my Nokia's screen in the sunlight.
