    look at your display options if it says 1920x1080 you've got a 1080p display

    the 1080p and 720p is a measure of the vertical pixels

    Hi Bono1,

    First of all, really good call on getting the 1080p screen. Makes a big difference.

    If you're using windows 7 (which I think is safe to assume) just right click on the desktop and click "Personalize" click that....on the next screen on the bottom left you'll see "Display" click that... finally, on the top left you'll see "Adjust Resolution" click that.

    Now you will be able to see what your resolution is. If you have the 720p screen, your resolution will be 1366x768. If you have the 1080p, your resolution will be 1920x1200.

    Enjoy your laptop :)
