Best screen in laptop for €800 or less

    Can anyone vouch for a good, bright screen in a laptop of €800 or less? I'm looking for decent horizontal viewing angles, decent contrast with nice blacks, and brightness. Watch a lot of movies/TV on laptop, as well as some photo-editing, and general computer use. Screen quality is important to me. I've given up on a high-res screen but I could live without that.

    I find so many nicely-specced, decent looking laptops for the money, then when it comes to the screen you get 'mediocre' or 'poor conrast', etc.

    Hate to say it but some of the dell studios have nice panels on them.

    You could also try going into a sony store and having a look at some of the vaio's, though they're expensive for what you get.

    if you have can access the student store (we didn't need a student card), Apple do the basic Mac for €830-€850 during the summer. They don't do the same deal at the moment (you get €75 to spend in the App Store but pay €899).

    Screen is pretty good, better than most IMO

    +1 on this. I have a Studio XPS 17. The screen is pretty sensational really
