It's nice to have a wider gamut (I'm using NEC/DELL wide-gamut displays professionally since a decade and I calibrate them regularly), but very few will notice the difference given the incredibly poor contrast in outdoor conditions.
I've recently switched to a newer laptop (lenovo x1 carbon), which is not matte (at least, the version I was given - with the touchscreen). While the resolution and color depth is much better than my previous hp elitebook, the screen is just too glossy. The added contrast is quickly lost due to the extra glare even in normal office conditions.
Nobody seems to care nowdays, but the anti-glare coating makes a huge difference in 90% of the scenarios. The claim of reduced brightness is bullshit unless you're working on a monitor in fixed light conditions.
On a tablet with a pen, which I'd really love to use outside to take notes, the added color depth is going to be useless.
