Yoga 460 came today, fyi it has a Glossy Screen
just so everyone knows before ordering, the screen on the best buy model is glossy not matte.

Isn't every Yoga except for the ThinkPad Yoga glossy? Isn't every Lenovo notebook except for the ThinkPad-series glossy?

It's a thinkpad
I'm sure it's partially because of the stylus
edit: if you look at the tech specs, there are 3 possible screens. http://news.lenovo.com/images/20034/ThinkPad%20Yoga%20460%20Spec%20Sheet.pdf

Usually the coating on stylus-able (wacom penabled) screens is more glossy than pure matte screens, but not closely comparable to full glossy screens (rough texture to simulate pen-paper-scratching-feeling).
Had a Dell XT2 and an EliteBook 2760p for years..

I have a Surface Book sitting next to a Yoga 460 and they look roughly equivalent turned off, both glossy as shit.

Sad to hear. Went away from laptops with pen-support anyways since the death of the good old convertible. The last "true" one is the Fujitsu T904 or T935 - which both are ridiculously expensive (https://geizhals.eu/fujitsu-lifebook-t935-vfy-t9350m47apde-a1229791.html) in Germany.

Nope. Most non-ThinkPads have matte screens today, often only Touchscreen models are glossy.

There wiill be a matte screen version, but not yet.
Is the matte screen version, touch screen?
Of course. Every Yoga has a Touchscreen.
