After reading way too many posts and laptop reviews I've settled on picking up a HP Envy 17. However, with the specs I'm looking to get I can get a similar 3D model for just $70 more. Without any further knowledge that seems like it would be worth it for me, even though I will probably get limited use out of it.
I tried to do searches here and other places to find out the key differences between the two, but didn't have much luck. The only thing I was able to find out for sure was the 3D screen operates at 120hz, as opposed to the standard 60d for the 2D version. Other than the obvious 3D capability and the 120hz screen, are there any other hardware difference between the two? Does the screen have similar brightness and color reproduction as the 2D (while in 2D operation) Assuming you are sticking with 2D activities, is there any difference in battery life?
Thanks for any assistance.
Envy 17 2D or 3D, which is better screen?
