    I just bought an NP8130. How will I be able to confirm if the screen included is really the 95% gamut screen? What brand and model number is it and what software do I use to confirm?

    Thanks.

    Well, I think there is a software that can detect which model of laptop display that is installed here, right?

    Use HWinfo64.

    It should tell you the model number of the screen.

    If you can't tell simply by noticing the vibrant colors... I mean c'mon, guy, the 95% screen has such vivid color why would you need a part number for confirmation???????

    Maybe because the OP doesn't have anything to compare like the regular glossy 72% gamut. The 72% does look pretty decent.
