this seller is stating that the screen resolution on this model is 1080p can anyone confirm this being that the i5 variant usually has a 768p screen

It has a 1080p screen, but does not have the digitizer board so a digitizer pen will not work. Most programs do not have ultra high resolution support yet so the icons and buttons look really small and on a 12.5 inch screen they are annoyingly small.

I had the XE700T1C-A02US and had some major issues with the screen - including strange artifacting, a "light shadow" along the entire outer frame of the screen, and a dark spot in the middle of the screen. Definitely exchange it. Amazon took mine back and didn't hassle me about it at all. :)

I picked up this exact model up at my local TigerDirect store. The screen is 1600x900 (HD+, not Full HD) and the graphics card is a 2GB GTX660M.

Yes this model is the one that has the QHD screen. I can confirm my max resolution is 2560x1440.

I'm happy to wait on my pre order, 1080p in a 13.3" chromebook at this price....worth the wait. If you can afford it, the Chromebook pixel has been out.

Yes! 15R5520. 15.6inch. Your resolution 768 the better one 1080p look your settings: also go to CNET.com they give good advise. Make sure the numbers are right on that monitor. If it's wrong the monitor won't come on. Everything on the laptop will be working right connection's, but the monitor won't come on. Check the number's when you receive your monitor. 15R5520.

It is showing as the 3040nr model. If you go to HP.com and look up that model it is the 1920 1080 model. I ordered last night and will confirm when it is delivered. They should be more descriptive here on the site. I spent about two hours looking around the web to have more peace of mind when I found a review of the 3040NR that had the same specs from the HP.com site so I am fairly sure. The price on amazon is better and I always prefer going through amazon when available.

Answer to part 1, nope. The screen on this laptop is 1600x900. Its between 720p and 1080p. If you want a 1080p screen, the last number has to be 1080. This screen will run 720p but not 1080p. Answer to part 2, yep. This is a LED screen. Personal opinion: Great screen. Movies and video games look great. This is an i7 but it is a dual core i7, not quad core. So, it runs a little slower than its quad core cousins, but the battery lasts alot longer. Moved from i7 quad to this laptop and barely noticed any slowdown. Definitely noticed increased battery. BTW, there is a dedicated video card. So, technically you have 2 video cards in the laptop. HD4000 is used for excel, and IE and stuff. Games and Movies use the discrete card. You can control which card is used for which stuff. So, if you are video editing or something you can use the better discrete card.

Is it okay to pre-order when there is clear confusion on the specs available. I feel its like buying a pig in a pork. I guess the best option will be to wait until the specs are updated.

The screen is 720p HD but not 1900 by 1080 which is 1080p. http://www.cnet.com/laptops/asus-zenbook-ux32a-db51/4507-3121_7-35372464.html please see these notes from CNET. Take care

Some W530's are 1080p, some are 768p .... unfortunately, Amazon does not often show this information in the specs. The way to be sure is to take the exact part number and look it up on Google or Lenovo's site, i.e. 24384KU for this one

The resolution of the screen is unacceptable. Also is you're buying a laptop from Amazon, make sure it is not a third party purchase, or you could be stuck with a restocking charge.

Mine is 1600x900 but specs I've seen online show 1366x768. But mine is also a few years old and the i5 version.

The screen is an XWGA++ which means that it has can do 16:9 widescreen format and also 1600x900 resolution. It is is not a True HD screen as it can't handle 1080p but only 720p. Also the connector is on the right hand side on the screen on the back near the middle. H\ope that helps.

It has a 1080 full hd screen with intel HD graphics. Mine has a sweet picture. When watching netflix I can not tell any difference between this and my 1080 big screen tv. I am not a gamer though and do not play any games on this computer.

No, the highest res that I get with the screen is 1366 x 768 and it is a hard cover glossy screen... I was a little disappointed when I turned it on and found out it had a glossy finish, it causes glare... oh well it's better than a big hole in my original one...

Mine has 1920 x 1080 shown as 'recommended' in control panel, however it was supplied direct by Dell in 2010 under warranty as a replacement for a Latitude D820 which had same screen resolution. I believe 1600 x 900 may have been the standard setting for it then. It's highly recommended, especially with the extended life battery (the one that sticks out of the back)
