So this might "offend" some of the most eager Nano display users, but I have to say it. Received my 14" M4 Pro with nano display four days ago and I have been using it a lot (like I normally do). The screen is amazing, and in normal lighting conditions at home it's so good. BUT!

I have been using a really good matte magnetic screen protector on my previous M2 Pro for two years, and I loved it. When comparing the glossy wearing a matte screen protector with Nano texture I see that there is not much difference at all. I know this might sound crazy, but it really isn't, especially in normal lighting at home using dark mode. I also noticed that nano feels slightly less brighter than the glossy one on whites with full brightness.

So for me the conclusion is: Return Nano, buy a glossy, and use it with the matte screen protector, and just take off the magnetic protector whenever I need the extra sharpness and vibrant colours of glossy while editing videos/photos. That way I have "both" glossy and matte at my disposal.

Can you please post which screen protector you've used on your M2 Pro? do they have one for the 14 inch Macbook?

I’ve seen this one and I also thought it was a privacy screen protector, it completely didn’t occur to me to wonder about what it would or wouldn’t do with glare. Thank you!
