I can't understand why Apple offers a glossy display, the screen has to be angled slightly and that's the perfect setup for glare from ambient light.

It's like trying to read a glossy magazine and you keep having to shift around to see it avoiding the glare off the page.

Whether it makes blacks blacker or colours sharper the end result is it's annoying.



It makes the display 'pop' indoors, some people like shiny things, and it is a popular platform for art-stuff.


And they're cheaper to make.
