    Is the 17.3 inch HD+ (900p) Bright LED Display from the new Studio 17 any good?

    As titled.
    Does it have very limited viewing angle?
    Thanks!

    Mine did. I sent it back because of the screen. I've got a 1735 and a 1640 in the house that have the lower resolution screens and they are both perfect. I expected the 1747 to be just as good.

    There was no perfect angle to view the screen and you couldn't see anything from the side. Was trying to show my husband something and he couldn't see it without being straight on.

    I'm hoping mine was defective. The casing around the screen was loose so it could have been installed wrong.
