    Do I have the right screen for my laptop?

    I bought my second xps l702x laptop from the dell outlet.

    The first one I sent back because they sent me a laptop with the wrong processor and screen than the one that I bought.

    Reluctantly I recently bought another laptop from the dell outlet, and I think they might have done it again.

    This is the screen that I bought as specified when I bought it:

    Display : 17.3in Full HD WLED AG (1920x1080) with 2.0 Mega Pixel Integrated Camera

    After checking on the device manager, the screen that they have sent me is the CMO1720.

    My initial Google searches show that the CMO1720 is in fact a LCD screen and not in fact LED as thought I had purchased...

    Am I making a mistake in this somewhere as it would be a real pain to have to send it back again and find a new laptop.

    It's an LED-backlit LCD, which is still an LCD, not an LED screen. You have the right part.
