    Hello

    After a few sessions in a coffeshop in daylight Im getting a bit tired from the sun reflection. Are there any players around here who had a good exprience with X anti glare screen protector that u can recommand ?

    I read there are alot of anti glare screen protectors that arent worth much.

    Thank you

    edit : for alienware m11x ( 11 inch screen )

    Personally I just wear a black t-shirt when glare is going to be an issue.

    I have the Photodon HD Anti Glare Film. It reduces the glare effect of approximately 25%. They have also a stronger one, but reading online, high antiglare involves high image degradation.

    I never used the m11x outside, I've got it recently. I tested the antiglare with direct light from the window and I can say that the "25% glare reduction" it's a fair claim.

    No. You can see the difference only when reading text, but it's almost imperceptible.

    I should get one for cheap off somewhere, though it is really annoying Alienware still fails to address this issue, even with 2 revisions on the m11x...
