    Hi there - been considering the W5XX series for quite time, but I just noticed that the screen options seem to have changed. I'd be buying this laptop in large part for photo editing, so while I'm glad the built-in color sensor is still in option, I can't tell if the current screen is a wide-gamut, high-NIT screen, or just FHD. Does anybody have any info on the 15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) LED Backlit Anti-Glare Display now being offered? Is that the option they refer to in this section of the specs which they say has a 95% color gamut? Any insight appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Yes, the FHD screen you are looking at is the 95% gamut TFT-LED screen option.

    Edit: Oops....nevermind. The site I checked with is apparently wrong. Sorry about that. I would recommend actually contacting a sales person from lenovo.
