    I mean f21 and f22 (3d and 2d model).

    Some ppl says at least f21 3d model uses s-ips panel.

    Is it true?

    They say they know from some pro info site that has all laptop's display panel info.

    What is that site?

    Thanks in advance.

    Check the notebookcheck review on the Vaio F 3D. They mention it there that they think it is an IPS panel. In their review they have mentioned that it has the best viewing angles of ANY laptop they have ever tested. And mind you, they have tested hundreds of laptops and many IPS screen laptops too including the much hailed HP Dreamcolor IPS screen.

    Apart from notebookcheck there are many users here who too believe that the F 3D has an IPS or at least exhibits the usual traits of an IPS screen - super wide viewing angles and great colors.

    I have also contacted other site admins and they too agree it might be an IPS or VA panel. Though definitely not TN.

    And as for official info, there isn't any as Sony does not state anything about the screen type.
