    For my W500 (1920x1200) it's a Samsung and the part number is LTN154U2-L05. I'm really curious to know if the LG is a lot better at least brighter. The whites on w500 are kind of grey. The Samsung screen on the W500 has good resolution but it's pretty dim. Are you having the same problem with yours. That it's pretty dim?

    It's just a WSXGA+, not WUXGA

    Frankly speaking
    I haven't used a WUXGA or WXSGA+ before
    So I would say it's excellent
    I just think for a 15' laptop, WSXGA+ could be enough
    it's great :D

    Well, I just think it's fine
    But everyone has its own choice, its own standard.
