reddit 15.6 lcd panel pricelist

The 14-inch, 1920 x 1080 WVA display is competent but not amazing; that alone is a victory at this price. That size and resolution combo are good for getting work done, especially in side-by-side windows, without blurry text. Like most cheap laptops, the color gamut is limited and backlighting is a bit dim; even at peak brightness (which Dell claims is 250 nits) it was a little underpowered in a bright room. The Acer Aspire 5 is a little better and the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5’s 400-nit OLED panel outclasses it in every way, but compared to the low-res, washed-out screens on many cheap laptops, the Inspiron’s is a relief.

The Vivobook 15 has many variants under $500 with good-enough specs. We tested the F515EA-0S36, with an 11th-gen Intel Core i3-1115G4 CPU, 8GB of RAM, 256GB PCIe SSD and 15.6-inch 1080p anti-glare screen. It shipped with Windows 10 Home in S Mode; we disabled S Mode and upgraded it to Windows 11 for testing.

The 15.6-inch screen is physically larger than the screens on the other laptops we tested but has the same 1920 x 1080 resolution, so text and UI elements are a little larger and easier to see. It gets about as bright as the Acer Aspire 5, and a little brighter than the Dell. Like those screens, it has an anti-glare coating, so it’s easier to use in well-lit areas than a glossy screen, but doesn’t show as wide a range of colors as the OLED display on the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5.

Flex 5 (2-in-1) – affordable all-rounders, heavier and mostly built out of plastic, Ryzen U or Core U hardware with optional MX graphics, IPS screens with lower-quality panels, 57/52 Wh batteries, from 1.4 kg / 3.1 lbs for the clamshell versions.

Once more, make sure to read our reviews for more details on the potential hidden quirks of these laptops, such as the kind of IPS panels offered in each case and how they handle multitasking and more demanding loads.

As for the consumer products, I’d take a good look at the premium Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 15 and Book Pro x360 15 ultrabooks, as well as at the LG Gram 15, 16, and 17 series. All these are among the lightest full-size laptops on the market, weighing under or around 3 lbs (1.35 kg), are built on the latest Intel Core U hardware, and offer excellent screens and big batteries. The Galaxy Book series has an edge over the Grams by including AMOLED panel options and a slightly sturdier chassis.
