    Hi, I accidently cracked my LCD screen and I'm looking to replace it. My laptop (NP8150) came with the matte 95% gamut one which I believe is the B156HW01 V.4. While searching for replacement screens I've seen many other options such as the V.5 and V.7 and this time I'm thinking about getting the 95% gamut glossy screen. Can someone please explain the differences between the different version? I've been trying to research it but so far I've been out of luck.

    try contacting myth at their tech support. they will probably be able to tell you, and place an order if you wanted. i've seen posts dealing with the same thing. Usually myth or i think malibal has helped a few members here.
    ps. I dont think you have to be a customer to reach tech support.

    I pretty sure the v7 is 95% glossy and v4 95% matt. There is a thread further back about this but can't find it.

    V5 is lower gamut glossy I think. Have a look on ebay for V7. Just make sure they don't offer that or equivalent because you might end up with a lower quality one.
