This case is matte not glossy black? Does it show fingerprints a lot like some other black cases?

It is a matte finish. I have the Slate color and the matte finish does not show fingerprints.

I have the clear case. Since my G4 is white, the case looks white, and had black trim. I see no fingerprints. But can't answer for the black. Sorry

The case I have is the slate blue, but I don't have any problems with that.

No, both mine (orange & white) were flat non-glare with slight grainy texture. No finger prints are noticeable.

It is not matte, it is glossy. But it is not appear to be as glossy as some other flat panels. But it is glossy.

Gloss Clear vs Matte Black. Are both material identical in stiffness and thus protection? Or is one softer? And is one grippier than the other? Does clear look OK with the black phone (subjective)? Thanks in advance for any help.

It's glossy, not mirror like but definitely a little glossy. I know what you mean ant the matte finish. You won't get that, bit the sheildf actually provides better grip than without.

Clear not matte. With the screen protector on it looks like it does with out the protector on. Hope that helps.

It is very clear and does reflect but I have not noticed this to be a problem since I use a stylus. I have found fingerprints to create more problems than clean ones

I had no problem with it at all. This color in particular has a matte finish that sticks better to the hand than the other ones with glossy finish.The case protects your phone really good. I had it falling from 2 meters high and either case and phone didnt get a scratch. Hope that answeryour question and help you decide.

Yes it does show fingerprints, this is is the only drawback. But I don't mind it, any metal one will do that anyway. No, this doesn't have sharp edges where it would poke and cut you or something. I carry this case in my pocket all the time with no problems.

You will still see some fingerprints, especially if you use the touch screen option a lot; however, they provide you wish with a techarmor screen cloth and a dust tape. It protects well against glare, so no problem there whatsoever

Yes. The case has a textured black finish. It has held up nicely since I have bought it so no obvious wear/quality issues.

I would say that it is more matted than glossy because the reflection is somewhat diffused. (Try Samsung)

Not glossy, more so matte. When you look at your screen from an angle or when it's off, you can tell there's a screen protector (which really isn't that big of a deal, of course); however, when it comes to actually using and looking at the screen, you can't really tell there's something there, so it's good from that perspective. Worth it.

No, it is a bit glossy due to it being a touch screen. When brightness is turned all the way up or if you don't have lots of light directly behind you, you barely notice it. But when you have lots of light of course you will pick up some reflections. It really comes down to your personal preference. Hope that helps.

Matte. I really like it. Very little glare or fingerprints. Best I've found.
