Does this viewsonic va2212m-led 22-inch led-lit monitor have a glossy or matte screen?

glossy frame but matte screen. Took old one out, plugged this one in and turned it on light changed to blue (button under lower right corner of the screen) and it works fine straight out of the box.

I would classify the screen as "matte" since there is no reflection off of the screen itself; however, the image on the screen is pretty bright compared to my other monitor--I need to adjust this.

The screen does not reflect so guess it is glossy. It has a fixed slight tilt.

I'm not sure what you mean by "glossy", but we've been using it as a PC monitor for months, and it works just fine.

No, the display is not glossy. Unlike conventional screens on regular monitors that are glossy, this one is not. Reflections on the screen are almost non-existent. You have to look for certain angles at which you can catch some faint reflections on the screen. It truly is a great display for photography/image processing.

The screen is matte. The advantage of having this monitor is that the color does not change by the angle of viewing. For me that was a big plus as I frequently get up from the table to view the screen from a distance. I also like the outstanding resolution. Hope that helps.

I would consider it a matte screen. It's not high gloss like those old CRT monitors.

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

Yes the screen is glossy, but so extremely sharp that it is not an issue. After buying a few as a test for our CAD operators and engineers, we ended up buying 20 because they were so well liked.

The screen is glossy but I do not have a problem with shadows or reflection. It is a great Screen. I think it is wonderful!

The screen is a matte finish, not nearly as glossy as a plasma or a high contrast LCD. Resolution is decent, but is definitely a matte finish, no gloss.

The screen is glossy. The picture you are referencing is the back of the screen. Hope this helps.

brother or sister, the screen is matte, not glossy. i ordered this notebook a little while ago and it just arrived today, best decision [in regards to electronics] i have ever made, ever. i owned four windows notebooks before purchasing this one, and using this notebook [and mac os] actually simulates the feeling of "a breath of fresh air".

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!

Nope not glossy. No thick anti glare coating either that you will find on the Dells.

Just recieved ours a week ago and it has a matte screen. I totally forgot that it never asked for my preference when I was ordering! So I think you are right, Amazon doesn't offer the glossy.I personally like the matte better, less annoying reflection, though I've heard the glossy screens have better color, personal preference.

I think Luger got it right. It's 60Hz (and still fine for passive 3D), and I would agree about the glossy screen. I had mine facing a window and when the sun shined in, it was very reflective.Don't get me wrong, though; I still really like this monitor (as per my review).
