Matte screen gang does not relate.

I thought I remembered seeing glossy cost extra before, which was funny to me.

Less funny when you look at the cost of matte today

To me that's a non-workable answer. You have to make the screen painfully bright to drown out visible reflections. The screen brightness literally has to be brighter than the brightest light source that's creating reflections
FishFace@piefed.social 1 day ago
Not really. It has to be enough brighter than the reflection that it’s not visually disturbing. And that criterion depends on what’s displayed: a high contrast image is much more robust than a bright single colour which is much more robust than a dark single colour.
Screens nowadays have anti-reflective coatings to make the brightness of a reflection far, far less than the actual light source if you looked directly at it.

So… You say you need a matte screen for the increased brightness to work?

I mean, it’s not terrible, I believe a rival light source interrupts the waves from the screen so it doesnt hurt as much (is also the science behind monitor bars), but I agree – I’d probably prefer a no-image-compromise, scratch-resistant, effective antiglare coating to a simply brighter screen. Can’t say for sure though as my phone doesn’t have a coating
