I went shopping for laptops today and saw some laptop screens were have this ‘glassy’ look (like apple macbooks) while some laptop screens still uses LCD (Even the higher end gaming laptops).

Isn’t the former more aesthetic?

I can’t remember which manufacturer had the option, might’ve been Apple a few generations of laptops ago. You could get the glossy screen for the most accurate color reproduction and clarity, or you could get the matte screen to reduce glare. It’s an aesthetic choice from manufacturers based on what they think the consumer will want to use their computers for.
