is this matte or clear (glossy)?

Matte. The screen has become less sensitive and is not as clear. Thinking about buying a different kind of product.

It is a matte finish but it has a little glossiness to it. I can see my reflection in it which is the only thing that bothers me about it.

The one that I bought it was glossy. It was an excellent product. Just one concern: the instructions on the envelope aren't clear, please see the tutorial videos at the website (it's a must). I messed up one of the two films included in the envelope following the envelope instructions.

matte but in direct sun it is still hard to read through as it would be with any other.

It's clear, not glossy at all. If I could at this, you know how paint comes in flat, glossy and semi-glossy? This would be considered flat...

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".

It is more of a matte vs glossy. Background reflection is minimal. Is a good monitor.

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

It's a matte finish. If you use it on slate as I did, it really brings out the color! You will be happy with the results. Let me know.

It is transparent clear with a gloss. Use Con-tact brand clear if you want a clear with the Matte finish

It's matte. It makes a sound but it is smooth and you can clearly see a picture if you were to put it in the back of your phone. :)

It is a matte finish. I have the Slate color and the matte finish does not show fingerprints.

I am going to have to have to say glossy. It has a very nice and clear picture.

I would consider it matte. When I hold it up in front of my face, I can barely see my own reflection. It has worked very well for me. Hope this helps.

Matte, be careful when you order as I needed the glossy one as well and I ordered the wrong one. It still works it is just not as clear as the old screen, but its a back up laptop so it doesn't matter to me.

It's basically a light gloss....eggshell...not total gloss...not matte...hope this helps.

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's basically glossy and not matte. It reflects quite a bit actually but not too bad.

It is more matte than glossy. It is not a cheap product and well worth the price for the quality.

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.

The one I received is matte, which seems to be the same that others I've read online (from other vendors than Amazon) have gotten.
