I hate that Apple stopped making matte screens for their laptops a few years ago and refused to replace mine because of it. I finally broke down and bought this a few months ago and the reflections on the screen are distracting. I thought this product would solve this problem, but it doesn't. It's as glossy as the screen itself, and the dark areas of the screen reflect as many reflections as the screen itself. This can be great if you want to protect your screen, but it doesn't reduce reflections (at least not for me).
