the only company that has figured out how to make laptop screens look good is Apple. they also seem to be the only one that figured out that glossy screens look way better than matte ones

I’d say the current Dell xps screens are 90% of the way towards being as good as an apple

real talk my “job” has a large component of going to other company’s offices and waving my hands around for a bit so i’m forever schlepping my laptop around and i think this contributes to it looking like trash
