Well I got my 1530 today with the samsung sreen. Its not as bad as I thought it would be. It could be clearer and brighter. I dont feel like spending the time and effort trying to get the screen replaced through dell. I got a great deal on my computer(refurbished but looks brand new) Part of me says stick with the screen becasue I probably would not have been as picky if I did not read these forums.. Another part says pay the 250 and get the lg screen. Has anyone done this?? its a waste of money but Im not going to send back my computer. Also how much should a computer tech charge for replacing a screen.
Thanks for any info

You should not have to pay a tech to replace it, you can replace it yourself. Read and follow the service manual on the Dell Support site. It is step by step with pictures.
If you can get Dell to replace it, why pay for it? They should have put the right one in the computer in the first place. -
man im a lucky mofo to get a refurbished M1530 with a LG screen!!!
I double and triple check on my invoice and it said SAMSUNG LCD screen, but when i got the laptop, i checked the Hardware ID and its a LG part!!!!
probably one out of 1000 chance lol -
ICE, sometimes if the returned LCD had severe issues, Dell may swap it out with a replacement. Hence the original system tag might have been registered with a Samsung screen, but was since replaced during refurbishing.
To the OP,
If you are not satisfied with the screen, I am pretty sure your purchase comes iwth a warranty through Dell. Haver Tech Support troubleshoot and replace your screen if necessary. There should be no charge for this. -
just call dell that u doing photography or video editting , this screen 's color quality is not up to your expectations, u want a replacement of lG screen
that will help.
swwapping screen is easy in some ohter previous model like 1705 i did.
lg screen worth 250 bucks?
