    Hi,
    I have question:
    which screen in Alienware 17r2 is better, has better display quality - touch TrueLife or regular?
    Both are IPS screen, but which has better coulors, gamma, etc.

    The TrueLife display is better.

    If you're a fan of less reflective screens, the anti-glare might be better. I wish Dell had offered a true matte panel as I always find that seeing myself in the screen is a distraction.....maybe as I am far too good looking LOL!
