only a few phones have it i think. S700/710 K700 P910 V/Z800 K600
With Ericsson and Nokia gone: we must keep their spirits alive and buy JOLLA or YOTA |

@blayv - Many thanks for clearing that issue dude . . . If you consider the Ericsson: T28, T29 and T39 to have clear screens (not matt's) then I guess you can also consider that of the T10 model, very similar with the 3 mentioned ones !

I don't know, but I like the matte finish better, too.

It was possible to use matt-glass on older phones because they had low resolution and big pixels- about 1mm so it even improved display look. But used on newer hi-res lcd it would make the picture look blurry. /---/

I guess that it's possible to make a bit clearer matt-glass display than in the past. So the pictures and other info in display won't turn notably blurry.

Some years have passed by when I start this topic, but glossiness of phones is going more and more popular. I don't understand, what do SE and other phone makers think? Wy should phones be so damned glossy - finger prints and grease magnet!?
And the other, main question: why SonyEricsson does not make matt-glass displays anymore like they used to do it many years ago? As we all know, especially the phone display has a bad habit to turn greasy. But with matt-glass displays there is not such a problem. Also that matt-glass is much more "scratch-proof" than the ordinary glossy-glass display.
I have one really old Ericsson (GH 174) - but the matt-glass of display looks like new!
And by the way, there are also many computers nowadays which screen is made with matt-glass - and I see no transparent problems. So, why all screen of mobile phones must be so damned glossy!?

The S700 screen was made from a special mineral glass that was scratch resistant. The K700 screen was made from polycarbonate plastic which is also scratch resistant to a degree, but nowhere near the resistance of the mineral glass used on the S700 (and the T650 I think).
Its the S700-type screen that they should be using on our phones, although we'd be paying a higher price for them if they did!

The T650i uses mineral glass on its screen. While I can't speak for its scratch resistance (though mines is still flawless so far without any kind of screen protector), it DOES do a very good job at resisting smudges and skin oils. I'm not saying they suddenly disappear, but somehow its hardly noticeable when the screen turns on. |

I don't talk only about scratches. I also mean that glossy display turns really ugly with grease.

I can't stand greasy fingerprints on my screen. I think nowaday they have definately moved to more glossy screens becuase of fashion and probably cost. |

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's because of fashion.. But at least they should offer some different choices too. Why not to make some mobile phones with matt-glass displayes and see the reaction of customers. |
