    Glossy screens are nice, but is it easily scratched?

    Same as matte, I would think. As long as you don't scratch it yourself....

    An e1705 question: is the WXGA+ a matte vs WUXGA a glossy? Both are glossy, perhaps?

    Only the Wide Screen UXGA is glossy, not the Wide Screen XGA+.

    Glossy does scratch easy. But you are not supposed to touch the screen. If people put their grubby hands near it like when they want to point. Just slap the hand. Problem solved.

    All the Asus laptops come with a plastic transparent screen cover for protecting the screen, at least it can help us not to scratch it easy.
