    How are the viewing angels on the Dell XPS 15. Do they change immensely from bottom or top viewing angle? Is the monitor of good quality?

    I wouldn't trust ANY 720P monitor to have good viewing angles. Just step into a Best Buy or Frys and you'll see how bad 90% of the screens are... and you'll notice they all aren't full 1080P. At this point, I see no reason for anyone to buy an XPS15 until Dell gets off its duff and gives back the 1080P option.

    The monitor isn't RGBLED its B+RG LED different,
    but possibly better, only has one set of LEDs instead of the 3 sets for the RGBLED, so alot less power consumption, and looks almost as good.
