Hi,
Look at the photo below. You can clearly see the difference between "matte" and "gloss" screens. (Left in both is "matte" and right in both is "glossy").
"Matte" is a form of style which doesn't reflect light but often has a grainier look. They are good for open spaces as they do not cause "reflections" on the screen, a recurring problem. Personally, the general look is dull and not colourful and pleasing.
"Gloss" is a form of style which can reflect light but has a shiny surface and a vibrant colourful look. It doesn't always reflect and personally, I would recommend purchasing the "Gloss" version.

Matte and Glossy laptop screen for Mac Pro?
Looking at getting a laptop screen-replacement, but I don't know whether to get a glossy or matte finish on the screen - I will be doing mostly image and video editing, but not gaming. Looking at the MacBook Pro, so which is better and why?

If you're going to be working outside a lot behind direct sunlight, matte will be a better option for you as they don't glare; however in almost every other situation, glossy is more "Pretty" to look at, and the colors look more visually appealing.
