Sager np5793 matt screen opinions?

[kevinlo]

I'm thinking of purchasign the np5793. The price is within my budget and it looks like a great machine. My only concern is the matt screen. Does anyone have experience with this screen. How is the brightness and contrast on it? Does it appear noticibly dim?

Thanks! Kevin

I don't have experience with that screen but I do have experience with matte. While I guess I prefer the gloss matte is fine with me.

People comment on the difference, they try and think of ways to describe. While this is useful it is lacking. Neither offers a truer representation of the real world in my opinion. But if I had to pick one matte offers. The world I see is not glossy. So I think the matte will be fine. Dim is not really the issue it does produce plenty of brightness. Also consider it is preferred in high light environments. If it was truly dim that would not be the case.

I could use either matte or gloss.

Thanks for the reply. I generally prefer Matt - like my desktop screens. I'm wondering about this screen in particular. Is the matt screen on the np5793 as dim as I've heard?
