    Glossy vs Matte TV Screen

    I just want to know what TV specification indicates if the screen has a glossy or matte fimish?
    I have a Vizio 42" TV with a matte finish and my sister has a similar 42" Vizio with a glossy finish. I like hers much better. I'm buying a new TV now and want I it to have a glossy finish but I don't know what specification to look for.

      Re: Glossy vs Matte TV Screen

      I guess it's preference but I prefer matte screens myself where possible. Plasmas naturally excluded due to the glass panel. The only way to be sure would be to see an in-store demo model.

          Vizio TV M50-C1 reboot cycle and static on screen
          by spice_disc
          I'm currently trying to diagnose and fix my Vizio TV (Model M50-C1). I've tried a number of different basic solutions, but I'm trying to determine if my issue is currently a failing panel, T-Con board, or main board (or something else entirely) and whether or not it is worth my time to fix it. Details of the issue and what I've tried are below as well as why I think it is either a bad panel, T-Con board, or main board.

          The Issue: The TV will be on and working fine but after the TV is on for ~5-10 minutes the screen will freeze (with sound continuing) until the TV reboots itself. While...

          iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
          by smic717394
          Hi,

          I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...

          Vizio M60-C3 black screen
          by paqman
          So our beloved M60-C3 up and died the other day. I was not there, my wife mentioned that it came on, displayed the logo, then showed the right half of the screen white and fuzzy, with the left half of the screen ok. However when I got around to looking at it, the screen would not come on at all. The indicator LED will come on, then dim a bit. After a while, the LED might blink a bunch of times. I can't get it to be consistent to do that.

          So I've got the back off and am checking voltages. The capacitors on the power supply board visually check out. No bulges or anything. They all show...

          Samsung UE55JU6800K half screen dark
          by Chrissygizmo
          Hello everyone, I’ve just been given a Samsung UE55JU6800K smart tv as it had white spots on the screen due to the led lenses falling off. After refitting them & putting the tv back together I thought it was a nice easy fix for a free bedroom tv , then I tried it before screwing the back into place. I realised that the right side of the screen was darker than the other side, I removed the screen again as I thought the backlights had failed but they are fine.
          I put the screen back in place & turned it back on . The screen seemed to be ok again but different screens on the same...

          Vizio M557-G0 Partial Screen Fade in and Out
          by bpcannan
          My first real post...I have a Vizio M557-G0 where the left 1/3 of the screen fades to nearly black then not and I can view the entire screen and whatever is playing on the TV. Very rhythmic. Other than that sound is good, rest of picture is perfect. Opened up the back and did see any bubbled capacitors. Is it an LED backlight issue. I have factory reset it twice. Any insights appreciated. Hope the pic comes thru and shows the issue.
          Thank you.
