First off, I want to say that I'm not posting this asking for differences. I understand the pros and cons. I want to know what options I have in terms of getting a gaming laptop with a glossy screen. Are glossy screens really that frowned upon? Here's my dilemma. My P-7811FX died and I need to get a replacement, quickly. I've researched all the major manufacturers and nothing in the i7/7XX series laptops come with a glossy screen unless I have one custom built by Xotic...... and I'm not even sure about the quality of that screen, it is an MSI display or aftermarket. I went to ComUSA to see what they had and on display was an Alienware, iBuypower, MSI, and an Asus and every single one of them the displays were AWFUL. The matte display was cloudy, it looked as if I would imagine it would be like to have cataracts. Yet these companies still don't offer a glossy display. Did these screens just happen to look bad because it was so bright inside the store? Are there any other options that I'm not aware of to get a gaming laptop with a glossy screen? Does anybody have an Xotic laptop with the Glossy upgrade that could comment on the quality? I've been banging my head against the wall, thousands of laptop combinations available yet I can't find a gaming laptop with display that brings out some color.
For what it's worth I was most impressed with this laptop out of all the gaming laptops I looked at. Great sound as I'm sure the MSI GT models are probably the same.
