My Thinkpad X230's IPS screen broke so I took it to get repaired by a "lenovo authorized" dealer. I specifically told him to make sure its the exact screen, but after getting it back, it clearly is a TN panel. The viewing angles are terrible and the colours are washed out. Not like the way it was before.
Does anyone have any way I can verify that I have a TN panel, with a model number or part number, for example? I found this website: http://download.lenovo.com/parts/ThinkPad/x230_fru_bom_20140313.pdf
But I'm unsure how to check which screen I have right now. Needless to say, I will call them tomorrow.

Try moninfo:
EnTech Taiwan | Utilities | Monitor Asset Manager
Good luck. -
hwinfo should be able to get your panel info

I used hwinfo and got this as my screen panel info: LP125WH2-TLB1
This is a TN panel, right?
What is the model number for the Premium HD IPS panels for Lenovo X230s? The computer repair guy is going to give me a hard time, saying "its the right screen", so I need to be prepared. -
Help - got my IPS laptop screen repaired, but I think the tech gave me the wrong screen - a TN panel! (Thinkpad X230)
