I wish I got the bestbuy one as it also had a 10% ebay cash back a few days ago and bestbuy honors holiday extended returns even from their eBay store. Yes you can return them inside brickstores too.
Headsup IDK if they fixed the problem, but this iteration has problems waking from sleep.
It's sporadic but sometimes waking from sleep , it just goes to a black screen and won't come back until you reboot.
This is problematic if for whatever reason work wasn't saved.
I went through 3 different laptops with Dell, it couldn't be fixed, Tried everything/ reformat/ fresh factory image/ fresh windows image from microsoft, still had problems waking from sleep, tried all the power settings recommended by dell, dell tech support etc.
Everything else is great.
the only iffy part is it's exhausting extremely hot air against the base of the LCD, this will lower the brightness of the led if you game on it alot, because it's way overheated, and the panel isn't that bright to begin with ~220 nit.
It's a 6 bit panel, no dithering to 8bit, it does not have a dithering module, just straight 262,000 color instead of 16.7million, factory accuracy is bad, but not a problem for games. The gamma tracking /rgb balance is decent.

Nope. I would jump on it in a heart beat if it come with another $150 Visa gift card.
Also it's the same as BB offer was (now expired)
