Laptop LCD Screen Surface: Matte or Glossy

Last week, when I arranged some products about laptop LCD screens, there were matte and glossy in the description of laptop LCD screen. That is the first time I noticed that laptop LCD screen has this feature. And this sparks my curiosity on their differences. And I want to make sure whether my LP133WX1-TLA1 LCD Screen is glossy or matte.

In general, the glossy laptop LCD screen has better contrast and brighter colors. And the color is more saturated. It has better viewing angles. Glossy screen looks more vibrant while watching movies and playing games. The disadvantage is the reflection of light. It?s difficult to adjust the screen to make it less reflective. Sometimes the laptop LCD screen may present unrealistic colors and overly contrasted images. Usually when we browse the online store, there is a notification says ?because of the laptop LCD screen and visual differences, it?s available to the color differences.? Glossy finish does not produce a textured look when scanned and converted to digital. But they are highly susceptible to fingerprints and smudges. Asus 900 LCD Screen and ASUS X83V Laptop LCD Screen belong to glossy screens.

For the matte laptop LCD screen, its anti-glare coating diffuses ambient light. But that makes the image looked slight blurring, lower contrast, and narrow viewing angle. If you stare at laptop LCD screen for long times, a matte screen is a better choice, personally speaking. Since most professional prints are printed on matte-finish paper, photos printed on matte paper can have a more professional look. This is especially true with black and white photographs. But the texture of matte finish can make a photo look grainy. And Compaq Presario 2100 LCD Screen and Inspiron E1505 LCD Screen are matte screens.

Actually, it is a personal preference as to matte or glossy screen. If you are tired of your laptop LCD screen, you can try another type. For some professional laptop LCD screen website like hootoo.com, you will see clearly whether it?s matte or glossy.
