    Just curious if anyone here has compared the 1080 screen of the Envy 17 to the XPS's RGB screen.

    Thanks.

    The XPS wins. You can find the review on aat where they show its insane color gamut as tested objectively, which iirc still tops the e17's HP projection for the gamut.

    Too bad the rbg screen doesn't exist anymore. It's a damn shame.

    Yeah that's what I thought. And the RGB screen is still there but now it's 15.6 as opposed to 16. Also the one in the Studio is 17.3. The XPS now show 100% and the Studio shows 90% of the color gamut. Both of screen are great.
