    I've noticed that the bright view screens don't have a good viewing angle.
    Does the matte screen have a better viewing angle? I'm surprised since there are LCD tv's now that have 170 degree viewing angle.

    Do the matte screens on the V2000z series have the same viewing angle as the brightviews?

    Regards,

    Mike

    I have first hand experience with the my friend's BrightView V2000Z and my matte V2000Z. Let me tell you personally that the Brightview has a tremendous viewing angle, only a modest viewing angle comes with my matte.

    Generally glossy screens have better angles.
