   Why aren't matte OLED screens a thing

     @kuba why glossy screens are a thing that exists at all

     @hey @noodlejetski you may not have seen a good matte screen, like Samsung had on their 900x laptop series. They were super crisp

     @noodlejetski @kuba oh don’t get me started. I can’t work on matte screens. Hate those fuzzy fonts and blurry lines. It’s like having a great display and covering it with a film that distorts everything.

     @hey @noodlejetski if you're sensitive to reflections (not all people are, I for one am very sensitive) - they're miles better. But as with many things - it depends on your needs

     @kuba @noodlejetski I doubt they were better than apple displays

     @hey @noodlejetski glad you can buy a product that meets your needs! I hope for the same for myself sometime

     @kuba @noodlejetski sure. I prefer reflections that I can control by moving my head unlike that one big pile of white shine which I often see on matte screens.

     Also apple displays have good anti reflection coating. I’m working with apple studio display, next to me there’s a window from floor to ceiling and don’t have any problems with reflections.

     And do have crisp high res screen with better colors.
