    I have checked the AUO website AUO - TFT-LCD and i found that AUO only producing the B156HW03 AUO - B156HW03 Which is currently shipped with FHD dv 6100.

    Searching for the REAL AUO v7 (Color Saturation 90%) not the compatible is going to be hard since AUO is not producing it anymore, unless AUO reproduce it again.

    Is there any LCD producer that is similar to the AUO v7 ?

    I have been in touch with laptopscreen.com They expect the v7 in in atound 3-4 weeks. The real ones. They are not in production, but they are building that last ones and shipping them out.

    In-Stock as compatible model with B156HW V.7 but not the exact AUO model, they will probably provide a screen from another maker, also brnkcv talked to laptopscreen.com and they said:
    I am assuming the real AUO.
