    It says the m15x has it but does the m17x has it?

    From Clearview website:

    In the world of LCD's, GDS CLEARVIEW takes display enhancement to a new level above all others. Utilizing advanced proprietary optical bonding technology; GDS CLEARVIEW overcomes optical challenges for display product manufacturers at an affordable price. In a wide range of applications, standard liquid crystal displays appear to "washed out" in high ambient lighting conditions. This wash out is due to excessive reflections and glare caused by bright light. Commercially available LCDs, especially when protected by a separate cover glass or plastic shield, can not deliver enough brightness to make the display functional in outdoors or in other high ambient light applications. The exclusive G-BOND process from CLEARVIEW provides a significant reduction of ambient light reflections at an affordable price, compared to other display enhancement technologies.

    G-BOND seals either a top cover glass or touch screen directly to the face of the display bezel. Our bonding process eliminates the air-gap between the display and the cover glass, vastly reducing reflective light, which causes visual washout of the display image. G-BOND also enhances structural integrity by supporting the LCD assembly with the cover glass. The bond maintains perfect display uniformity while providing shock protection, unlimited humidity protection, and elimination of fogging caused by trapped moisture accumulating in typical air-gap assemblies.

    * G-BOND provides the best reduction of ambient light washout of any commercially available enhancement technology.
    * G-BOND has a lower cost than most other competing technologies.
    * G-BOND offers superior ruggedization, enhancing the display durability under vibration, shock and other environmental extremes.

    the M17x has something better than Clearview: Edge2Edge. even sharper, even brighter, even more "sparkly". and, most importantly, even more reflective.
