Glossy produce clearly nicer image (sharper, colors are more vivid), but reflections can make it very impractical (especially during the day). Ideally I would choose matte but with higher resolution than Full HD.

Glossy/matte is also not a binary choice, as I understand there are displays with various degrees of glosiness/matte which might provide better trade off.

Agreed, I came to the same conclusion. Both my PC laptop and MacBook Air have glossy displays but MacBook one reflects back less light which makes it easier to work with.
