How's the quality of the plastic? Is it a gross glossy plastic or is it a matte finish?

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!

I would say more of a matte finish. Good quality. Got mine in September still works great.

It is a glossy finish. Lutron makes screw less decora in matte finish but they do cost a bit more...hope this helps!

I would say more matte finish, not shiny. They are very good quality, we are very happy with them.

It's glossy, not mirror like but definitely a little glossy. I know what you mean ant the matte finish. You won't get that, bit the sheildf actually provides better grip than without.

Its plastic but has a slight texture to it so its not really super smooth or glossy. We don't use a mouse on it though.

I haven't had a problem. The finish is matte, and I just wipe it down with a damp cloth every now and then.

The image of the item on Amazon is pretty accurate. It appears to be finished either with an oil or maybe some type of low-gloss polyurethane. The surface is matte (not glossy) and the texture is smooth but not glass-smooth. Hope this helps.

It's glossy like glass but not like mirror. I bought that monitor for gaming and it's awesome compare to others I had and bezel is thin

Mine is very glossy, and prone to picking up fingerprints. The glossiness makes it easy to clean, though. Just wipe it off!

It's glossy, but hardly like the picture shows. I guess it shines if you look at it from an angle with light hitting it, but otherwise it still looks like the matte-black. I am just staring at mine and yeah it has a shine, but it is not "shiny".

I would call it glossy. However it is really clear. I did not realize how dull the matte one I had before really was...

They are matte. I painted mine a metallic gold and people were surprised they were plastic.

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

Matte finish, not glossy at all. I used it for a reunion DVD project with minimal showing usage. In my opinion, I would never use it for commecial CD albums.

It is a matte plastic finish. It is not sticky like the silicone, and slides in and out of pocket with ease.

It has a matte finish with some specs of metallic....not a lot of metallic. First came damaged due to poor packaging. Second one came quickly and in perfect condition. Very nice. I absolutely love it.
