On the fence about whether you should go with a  Matte or Glossy display?

Best answer: When it comes to matte vs glossy displays, there's not really a right answer that fits most people. Both types of displays have their pros and cons, along with their passionate fans.

A matte display is great for any environment

Matte displays are anti-glare, great for any sort of lighting environment. Whether you're working under the bright fluorescent lights of an office while in your cubicle or have your desk bathed in sunlight through your office window, a matte display will let you continue to see your work.

Anecdotally, I always have a much easier time using matte screens for extended periods without experiencing eye strain. It's not exactly scientific, but I've heard the same thing from others, as well.

The biggest downside for any given matte display compared to glossy screens often comes down to color. Colors on a matte display are, generally, not as vibrant as those you'll find on a similarly-specced gloss...
