    The Swift 3 has a dim and glossy screen which is a big dealbreaker.

    However, there is a white glass lid variant (sometimes branded as "Special Edition") that has matte screen instead of glossy. This could compensate for the dim panel and make it less of a dealbreaker. It is also marginally lighter than the regular glossy screen variant (1.6kg vs 1.7kg).
