Just wondering for those of you who use the matte screen, or tried and went back to the glossy, how does it compare to glossy screens when it comes to crispness? Is it more -not blurry per se but- murky-ish? Like as if there's some layer between you and the screen, whereas there is none for glossy.

I know anti-glare doesn't equal anti-fingerprint, but that's what I imagine it's like. Anyone who's ever used an anti-fingerprint screen protector for the iphone, does the matte screen resemble that in anyway?

Nah no way, infact there's less between you and the screen when compared to glossy, it's essentially just a bare screen. Love my HR AG. I've had glossy and anti glare and I really like anti glare

Yes. The AG screen looks awful; like someone has taken a glossy screen and covered it with Vaseline and mud. All murky and horrible with bits of grit and twigs in it. Really really terrible, you wouldn't like it. You should definitely get the glossy screen. :rolleyes:

This.

I went HR-AG. I wouldn't go back to the glossy/glass unless forced.
