    I know most laptop use cheap 6-bit TN panel( except IBM 15 SXGA+ and other very expensive ones), I just ordered a 1720 , in the "help me to choose", it is saying that high res screen is wide view angle, while normal XGA+ is not. So it makes me wondering maybe the screen is MVA or PVA? or it is just a better TN panel? and in some review, it was saying that the gamut is about 72% (normal TN is about 42%)!
    I have seen the screen of e1705, I was really impressed, the color is saturated, much better than other 90% in the market.

    Can anybody tell what is the panel of UXGA 1720?

    Thanks a lot

    dell uses 3 or 4 manufactures right now. there is now way to know what panel you will get just because one person here has a specific brand or model def does not mean you will get that one. just remember that

    tahnks for your reply, I just found LG-philips and samsung have such WUXGA+ panel, but the listed gamut is only 50%, does it mean it is worse than before? or it depends on the manufacture of "my" panel.

    I had Samsung, LG, and Sharp on my old E1705. Sharp was the best in my experience.
