    I just received my x220t from the Lenovo Outlet. How can I tell what kind of display it came with? From my understand there are only two display variations: the non-multitouch Gorilla glass, and the multitouch Infinity glass. Is that correct? I'm not really familiar with tablets or multitouch at all so I don't know what I'm looking for or what the different screen functionalities are.

    Thanks,
    Dyn

    If you are able to use your finger for input, you got the multitouch. If not, and your screen is glossy, you have the outdoor.

    I believe the only difference is the outdoor is gorilla glass, pen-only input, and a bit brighter. The regular screen is matte, lets you use your finger or pen, and is 300 nits.

    Yeah, I can use my fingers. The screen is slightly more glossy than my x201, but still matte overall.
