Is the shield dark ? It seems like it's dark.

No, the shield is clear out of the box,A tinted one can be obtained for ~18 bucks from any GMAX dealer!

I bought the black one, so I can't be sure. On my screen the white one looks all white but with a gradual shaded effect due to lighting. Why not ask the seller directly?

No, It's still dark. As long as there's plenty of light it will do just fine.

s20b350 is the model I own and it is maroon like around the screen but it doesn't glow. Only notice the color in sunlight. I don't think its meant too really. I wouldn't want it too personally. Maybe in photos it catches light but it doesn't glow.

Not dark at all. During the day you can see right through it. At night you can see your reflection, this not allowing you to see directly outside. Hope this helps

No, the screen doesn't light up, and you cannot see it in the dark. I will rephrase, my screen doesn't light up, and I cannot see it in the dark.

No, the display is not backlit. It seemed to me that I read someplace that there was the possibility of back lighting, but it must have been wishful thinking.

The display can be seen in the dark, there are lights but I don't think it's backlit and I did not see a brightness adjustment so I don't believe there is one.

Mine has fogged up slightly when stopped, and the shield closed completely. When back in motion again, it disappears quickly.

No. It's way too dark. More of a hazard but the backs come out great. I did the front side lights and they are blacked out very minimal amount of light. I left the front ones alone.

I don't see it unless there is light shining on it. The light from the screen does not light it up. My office is somewhat dark and the frame looks almost black. I really like this monitor.

It's too dark for the visor . You should not use it for the visor . I feel it's darker than dark sunglasses .

I guess it depends on lighting, but looking at it from across the room, it's nearly black

no but lastnight it took a LONG time for my tv to come on. i tried everything even unplugged from the surge protector and waited for a minute or two. Finally, it came on and functioned just perfectly. I'm not impressed by the light that bleeds through from the top of the screen though. Still waiting to hear back from Amazon about a return for the TV.

It is a very transparent black shade. When lit, it almost looks purple. It's definitely not a harsh black.

Hi, no it's not that dark, but just a tad lighter. It's also a little on the thin side, so if you're expecting a sturdy hold, this might not be it. Good luck!
