welcome to Linus tech tips at CES 2013 our trip to the show this year is powered by Corsair maker of quality pc components and peripherals our trusted storage partner is seagate technology and our trusted networking partner is linksys the last thing at the sharp booth is not quite as futuristic as AK in fact this is another one of those things that could be feasibly manufactured now but they're calling it maathai and basically the reason for the naming is that moths have this coating on their eyes that reduces reflection but unlike a matte display which is available today doesn't totally destroy your black levels turning it into more of a grey level so I'm gonna have slick hold up the flash on my phone here and we're going to start with their demo TV here on this side right here so these will go ahead and move a little bit there you go this is a glossy display so you can clearly see the light from the flash it is reflective it's basically like a mirror for comparison's sake sharp has also included in their demo a matte screen so if you guys got that footage already you good so let's move over to the other side here this is a matte screen this is available today as well so you can see how there's not nearly as much reflectivity however the blacks are lost they look more like a grey more like like it's covered in a layer of dust play frankly now we're gonna move to the middle one which is maathai here we get deep blacks vibrant whites and compared to a glossy screen we get a reduction in the amount of light that is reflected blatt back from the iphone 4 camera however again guys it's a compromise so it's not quite to the degree that a matte screen would have that effect don't miss any of our CES 2013 coverage don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips I'll see you guys soon thanks for watching Linus tech tips at CES 2013 powered by Corsair seagate technology and lynxes you
