Quote from the What Should I Buy Form:

well i know that the wxga+ led screen is like 40% more brighter then the wxga ccfl. so yes brightness is a fact in most laptop purchases. even the wuxga is a brighter screen.

At maximum brightness, I don't think any one of these screens are going to be significantly brighter or dimmer than the others. If there is some variation, it'll be on a manufacturer by manufacturer basis (assuming Dell isn't using a single manufacturer for each screen resolution), and you won't have any control over what you get in the first place.

well i have the wxga screen and the wxga+ screen and the led wxga+ is 40% brighter then the wxga. now im also getting the wuxga screen and that is just as bright as the led wxga+ screen but had a 1920x1200 rez.

Dell uses several manufacturers and models for the same screen type (WXGA, WXGA+, etc), and they are all not the same. -

Well of course if you are comparing CCFL and LED, the LED is going to significantly brighter than CCFL. I was implying that with all other things, including backlighting, held constant, display resolution should not change the brightness. I suppose I should have specified in retrospect.

Yeah, I just read it real quick when I replied, but i see what you were saying now. You're right, there probably isn't a huge difference. Although I know there's one version of a WXGA or WXGA+ thats grainy and EVERYBODY hates....don't get that one lol.

wuxga will have the most real estate out of the 3. more real estate = more productivity.
vista lets u change all icon and font sizes via DPI settings, so visibility shouldn't be a huge factor. the "right" screen all depends on what yur intended uses are. best way to find out is goto a store and physically check them out yurself. -
well like i said i have all three screens and im useing the wuxga now and selling the led and ccfl one.

I have the WXGA and I am perfectly happy with it, could be a little brighter during daylight but the price was good. I play games on it and they look great, I hook it up to my HDTV and it looks great. Really it is all about user preference as well as $

The WXGA is not bad, but low resolution and a little grainy, the WUXGA is REALLY Sharp, but everything is so small (including text), my eyes hurt. The happy, VERY happy medium is the WXGA+, it is sharp and great on my eyes.
I had all three, and am super happy with the 1440x900 WXGA+ LED -
i do like the led one but the bigger rez is what i needed.

I've the wuxga, its very sharp and high-res pictures and videos look amazing on it.
The only problem is that it's not that bright. Even in a dimly lit room.
I wouldn't advise it if you do a lot of work outside. -
so the wxga+ led one you say is better? thats what im useing now but i also have the wuxga screen i can use as well.
