    The screen is the most important aspect to me so I would like not a good one but a great one. Great color accuracy and very wide viewing angles in 1080 is what I want. I don't need a higher resolution.

    Which new or upcoming Sager/Clevo has the best 15.6" screen?

    I've looked at some reviews and looked at sites but its hard to tell which model(s) have the better screens.

    Thanks in advance.

    AUO B156HAN01.2 (but it´s 6-bit according to panelook, 72%ntsc) or Samsung LTN156HL01-102 (60%ntsc, dont know how many bits). Both are wide angle and FHD. If you want better, you have to go higher resolutions.

    LG had some great FHD panels for HP Elitebooks (ips, 10-bit, +100%ntsc) but they´re LVDS.

    Search panelook.com.

    Thanks, I was looking more and came to the same conclusion that I would need to go to higher resolution screens to get a better one.

    Right now it looks like the NP8651 with the best screen option would be best for me. It seems it gets released the middle of December so I will wait for a few reviews and buy it if they are good.

    The NP8651 is currently the only 15.6" that has any screen options. The IPS should be nice and I'm really looking foward to checking out the 4K ones. Like you mentioned they are expected in mid December so we'll start getting feedback shortly after.
