Generally the same as a desktop screen in difference. You get brighter more vibrant colors with the glossy ones, but you pay for it in glare/reflection on the device. Matt screens are better in brighter environments, and I personally like how they feel under my fingers better. The matte also reduces viewing angles which might be a plus for privacy.
Alot of people turn the brightness down on battery power, so keep this in mind since the matte will kind of "dull" the image quality. Text also isn't as sharp on the matte.
I am a fan of JavoEdge (JavoScreens), and I have both the matte and glossy and after trying both for about a week each I've decided I like the glossy better.
Redundant...
There are already at least 3 threads covering this, revisit one of them.
Hint look for InvisibleSHIELD.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a screen protector for this phone
cheers
After some testing: only one possibility: Brando Ultra Clear Protector Plus!
Good luck!
Hi,
I tried the Brando Ultra Clear but I didn't like it (too slippery, too many reflections); I then bought a Brando AntiGlare and I find it much better (nice texture, more precise screen taps, reduced glare, ...)

IMHO a lot! I removed it!
Obviously, it is a matter of personal preference. The UltraClear (if it is well applied) is almost invisible, it's hard to tell that you have a screen protector on.
The Anti Glare reduces reflections quite a lot, but of course it doens't suppress them completeley... But for me the main benefit is the texture, it gives more feedback on screen taps and it stops the stylus from slipping on the screen.
Has anyone heard anything, or seen a case with a clear flip top screen cover? Something on the order of a Crystal case with a screen cover that can be moved out of the way would be ideal, to me at least.
EXiM SPUC , I using them very long since from my XDA IIi, they are onr from the best...You get get it on ebay..
So is there a screen protector of some kind which makes the screen less shiny? When I am outside I dont see anything, when there is a bright lightsource around I cant watch a movie normally... I know the colors and brightness is better on amoled, but the screens refelction is annoying imho.
is there a workaround?
Try enabling auto brightness. It will cranked up the screen brightness in high light settings and lower it in low light. I use it and I can see just fine outside.
If you can't stand the shiny screen, you can try buying a anti glare screen protector.
Reminded me of this:

lol @ youtube
do you know if those anti glare screens work?
I have auto brightness on
The clarivue anti glare does help some out in the sun.
It goes from "I can't see ****" to "I can make out some ****".
you should have a screen protector to reduce smudges on the screen; and also like others said, enable the auto brightness. I have no problem with my Nexus under direct sunlight

HAHA. This deserves to be added to someone's signature.
I'm using a protector called UltraCase. They have three different versions. The antiglare is great and you can see it well in full sunlight. They ship from hong kong so it takes a while to get but is worth it. Their silicone sleeve is also fantastic. You paid a lot for your phone and another 30-40 bucks is well worth it. You won't be disappointed.

matte screen protector
I ordered the matte/anti glare screen protector off of ebay from dcmugen. still waiting for the product to arrive. will let you know soon. theres videos of it on youtube.
thx for feedback, I bought the clarivue anti glare online, lets see if I can distinguish some ****
so thank u muncheese and in your honor see below.
--edit--
why my signature not showing
got it in the mail today it works decently and has some advantages
I myself have pretty greasy fingers which always smear on the screen, with this protector that is a non issue. I like the strange new feeling it feels smoother and better.
so far so good, but it has one mayor downfall
the screen is a little blurred. since I have the anti-glare layer, its like there in an slightly un-transparent layer on the screen making the screen look a little blurry.
Although for some that might not be the price they wanna pay for the advantages, I kinda like it. I checked it out outside and no longer do I see my ugly face in the screen when watching a clip on youtube.
If you use your n1 much for watching downloaded movies etc then I would not suggest to use such a screen protector, but if you just use it for youtube or any other low quality stuff its not a problem.
how does it affect the readability of the small letters when surfing the web?
eric b
hardly. reading small lettered texts isnt a problem.
anyone found a good anti-glare screen protector or film for the Nexus?
the AMOLED is clearly near worthless in direct sunlight... barely readable even at 100% screen brightness setting (which would drain the battery in no time)...
I've tried the Clarivue ones - the 'anti-glare' ones they claim, but all that is is a matte/brushed finish... which just makes the screen look cloudy all the time... definitely reduces the crispness of the screen...
wondering if there is a solution (even if it's "cut your own") for a film that is smooth and glossy, but has an anti-reflective property to it.... maybe even something with some polarized property....
cheers
here in spain its pretty sunny and everytime that I use my N1 while walking I have to but brightness up to maximum. for me its allright like that even thought drains faster the battery.
So you want something glossy...meaning reflective..that has anti-reflective properties.
Got it.
I may have found something... ordered to try...
the 'DayVue' version of their film - 'anti-reflective' and 'anti-glare'... they have a regular 'anti-glare' as well, which I'm presuming is just a matte finish... But the DayVue sounds like it's what I'm looking for...

OyVe... guess I could just get a 3.5' iPhone one and not have the corners covered to see if better... wonder if there is any glare protectors on their website to use with a 3.7' phone that I could order it for and use for the N1
Boxwave makes a pretty decent one. They offer one precut for the N1. I would post a URL but I can't yet.
Any screen protector with anti-glare properties will always make the display slightly cloudy. I got one of boxwave's anti-glare screen protectors for my Moto Cliq and it worked very well. The clouding is very minimal and is hard to notice. It also gives the added benefit of greatly reducing the visibility of fingerprints and smudges.
I just ordered one for the N1 too.

Thank you, might order this today. I wish there were some actual pictures to see the difference...
I just received the boxwave screen protector a few minutes ago. I attached a picture with it applied. It's not a very good picture though. I don't have manual focus on my camera, so it looks more fuzzy than it actually is. I hope this helps a bit though.
I tried it out in near-direct sunlight outside and there's a definite improvement, especially if you increase the screen brightness. It also makes your finger slide across the screen easier. You don't get that grip feeling like on the glass.

Thank you Thank you I appreciate it... I'll def get it today now because of your great suggestion.
A glossy surface reflects light.
A matte surface diffuses light.
Glare is light.
You can't have both without witchery.
Does anyone have a Matte screen protector? What about the quality?
Does it look better than glossy?
And is it real that the fingers don't grip anymore on the screen?

I got these for my Defy+. Quality is top-notch but aftre a week or so I decided that I didn't actually like the matte finish and I went back to the normal glossy finish type.

I never noticed a problem like that during the short time I had the matte one in place.
I've got one. Don't know about the brand, but the quality is kinda nice. Obviously, since we've got a Gorilla Glass, it won't be as scratch-proof as using no screen protector at all, but the look is amazing, the touch feeling is also great, and I've got no issues with touch anymore (before I was getting oversensitive touch due to sweating and dust, like when typing it got stuck on a key, and I had to turn off screen, clean it, then turn it back on and continue typing). Also, no peeling after some time (like I got with my previous glossy protector), just it's more susceptible to scratch.
K3n, where did you got one? (Brasil aqui também )
I've got the matte one of amzer.. and im liking it
Sent from my MB525
Anti glare are good. But they take away the clarity of the screen and visiblity in open areas
Best part is It's smug free and finger prints is no more a problem.
Had it for long and then moved back to clear type screen guard.
The best are: http://www.nillkin.com/En/ProductView.asp?ID=832

yeah..me too..it made the touch unnatural.
i have an anti-glare screen protector too, and i find it great. no more fingerprints, i like the feel of the screen much more. yeah, it reduces clarity, but i dont think it reduces visibility or brightness. and mine is perfectly scratch resistant.
i have this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-X-MATTE-A...ccessories&hash=item3a750f6912#ht_2445wt_1270
I like the matte too. Bought from here
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-3x-MATT...Accessories&hash=item45ff31e71c#ht_3878wt_932
and are a lot tougher than the cheapo screen protectors I have had in the past. It seemed a bit odd to start with with the friction but I am sure it 'smoothed off' after a week or two.

anti glare sp are generally smoother, and since our defy doesn't have those super clear amoled screen, we didn't loss much.
Ok, here it goes. I had the matte screen protector for around 6 months on my phone. After that time, it started peeling off (not too much of an issue, the whole peeling was off the screen), got heavily scratched and my touch issues came back, most likely because of the scratches. So, I decided to take it off. After that 6 months, I noticed how much clarity it took from the screen, it seemed like a different phone. The colors are way more vivid, almost like an AMOLED screen. So, here is my advice: get a glossy one. The feel of the protector is not that good after some time, and the amount of clarity lost on the screen is a price way too high to pay.
i tried a matte and a glare screen protector but the glare one is a bit nicer because the other one takes too much light....but it is in both cases a bit better for gliding over the screen
Matte is awesome!!
Well i use a amzer matte finish screen Guard , and i love it.
the slight texture on it makes the screen feel Awesome...
BUT you may not like the loss of clarity .....
I never buy expensive screen protectors as it always seems to take at least three tries until I get a completely flush and bubble free finish.
I got these matte protectors a while back from ebay and they've perfectly good.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-3x-MA...203932?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45ff31e71c
I wanted matte as I use the phone as a cycle computer/satnav and it certainly helps with the glare. Yes, they are smoother and the screen does not look as clear but they definitely do the job if you need to cut down glare.

I've just checked my ebay feedback and they came surprisingly quickly from HK, 8 days from ordering to arriving on the doorstep (I'm in UK).
Normally stuff from HK ebay sellers takes around 2 weeks unless it's dealextreme when it can take any time up to 8 years

I never re-use screen protectors as they never stay completely clean and dust free to reapply without bubbles. At the price of these, it's not much of an issue. I have had the same protector on since April so they are decent quality and will last. You never know when buying things from ebay; the screen protectors that they sell now may not be exactly the same as the ones I bought in Aptil.
thanks mate... now waiting for the screen gaurd!
Is it just me or is the note 4's display quite reflective in indoor lighting? On blackish backgrounds I can clearly see my on reflection on the display which is quite distracting
That is a common problem with all smartphone as you have a big glass panel in from of you. If you are using a dark wallpaper or if your screen is turned off it will just act like a mirror. My bratty little sister uses her Note screen as a vanity mirror all the time.
Yes. However I think having a glass screen protector on compared to a plastic one also increases the reflections

Yeah, that would definately increase the reflective qualities of the screen.
