SCREEN AND DISPLAY

I just can say X1’s screen is really really good, it has an IPS panel like on smartphones and this IPS panel helps X1 displays very sharply, you can view it with wide angles, the black color is very deep. Moreover, screen’s resolution is 2560 x 1440 pixels, it’s higher than 1440 x 900 pixels of Macbook Air, this resolution helps X1 can display all HD videos with high quality, you can also view pictures, graphs or anything else on X1 with true colors, brightness and smoothness…the screen on X1 is a touch screen, so if you want to command X1 does anything, you just need to touch it. Touch screen will help you use laptop better, especially with new OS designed for using touch to like windows 8.1.
