Anti Glare Screen for MacBook Pro
Angus Mordant, Student/Intern

->> I have recently bought a 13 inch MacBook Pro and it of course came with the glossy screen, I was just wondering if anyone knows or has any experience with Anti Glare Stickers to make the screen more matte and if so what are good brands?

Thanks

->> I'd say it would have been better to buy the anti-glare version of the MacBook Pro. Even with an anti-glare sticker to go over it, the color and information coming out of the screen passing through the sticker is still being slightly distorted because of the screen being a glossy display in the first place.

->> Steve,
Cheers for that, I will have a look at them.

Joshua,
That would certainly have been ideal however being the 13 inch MacBook Pro that wasn't an option. Apple only offers the matte displays on the 15 and 17 inch models.
