Are there effective Anti-glare screens? [closed]

Solution 1:

There are such filters - whether it is effective or not depends on YOUR standard of effectiveness.

Suffice to say, 99.9% of people find certain anti-glare filters effective (not naming brands or models!)

Solution 2:

Any anti-glare or anti-reflective screen will reduce the brightness and maybe the viewing angle of the display.

To answer another posting, yes there are some manufacturers that have stuck with or returned to matte finish LCD displays - some HP (ProBook), IBM/Lenovo, Toshiba and Dell models.

Someone else mentioned the there are disadvantages of matte screens. The only disadvantages are suggested by manufacturers' marketing people that images are not as sharp and colours are not as bright compared with a glossy screen. Would someone please explain the physics behind such a claim?

And finally - no manufacturer of HD television screens has made one in a glossy finish in an attempt to improve its colour and contrast over its competitors perhaps because it is simply untrue!
