I ordered a replacement screen from LaptopScreens.com and got different model than I ordered.
The display in my XPS 15z is a AUO B156HW03 V.0. The display I received is a CHI MEI N156HGE-LB1 Rev. C1.
Based on what I found on Panelook.com, it seems like the CHI MEI panel uses less power, but has worse viewing angles. Can anyone give any idea which panel is better? The display arrived damaged so they said they can get a replacement out to me quickly. They said the CHI MEI is totally compatible, and I'm fine with that if it's a better panel. If it's worse, I want to make sure I get what I ordered, which is the AUO panel.
