Matte display

Reflection of a fluorescent ceiling light, as seen in a glossy screen (left) and matte screen (right).

A matte display is an electronic display with a matte surface. Matte displays feature a light-scattering antireflection layer, which reduces reflectivity at the cost of decreased contrast and color intensity under dimly lit conditions.[1]
