Very very detailed answer below from Galaxus! Well played Mr bot, well played! I can’t speak much to the coating!!! But I can’t say that is the single best purchase I have ever made for my gaming set up!!! Happy to do a video call with you if you are keen to see it irl! But honestly - best monitor I’ve ever used by a massive long shot. Stan

The monitor has a matt anti-glare coating, which effectively reduces reflections and ensures better utilisation in bright light conditions. However, this matt coating leads to a slight graininess in the image, especially on monochrome surfaces, which reduces the sharpness of the image somewhat, but significantly reduces reflections.
