    The screen that came with my MSI PX60 is too dark (dim) I have vision problems so I need a bright screen, can I replace it with a different screen?

    The screen it came with is a CMN N156HGE-EAL
    can I replace it with a Samsung LTN156HL01-B03 or a Samsung LTN156HL02?
    They all have 30 pin connectors on the back right side, all have Matte screens, and all are 1900x1080, and all are LED backlit, and all are 15.6".

    The Samsung screens are PLS (similar to IPS)
    while CMN N156HGE-EAL is a TN screen.

    Thanks

    I ended up buying a Dell branded (refurbished) Samsung LTN156HL02-201 screen for $55 on ebay
    it's much brighter and sharper than the original screen
    and was very easy to install.
