The 45% NTSC ruined an otherwise amazing deal.
At this price, you won't get anything better and literally every manufacturer offer this 45% NTSC panels. However, unlike some other brands like HP, at least this is 300-nits which will make it easy to use in bright rooms.

honestly i don't even know if that is the correct resolution... i mean best buy lists the gpu manufacturer as intel -_- on an amd laptop


only thing i could find on asus's site was the 1900x1200 variant, understand the other resolution due to the screen not being widscreen, also to keep the same ratio believe the screen would have to be 1600x1000 not 768 so it makes no sense to me where this screen resolution comes from because it would require a giant bezel on the top and bottom to reduce the screen to that format, 1600x1000 would make it a 16x10 screen which is at least a normal option (think macbooks are this way)

to put it simply the resolution on the site makes no sense as it would have to be a 18.75x9 like ratio which is uncommon as hell..... only thing that comes to mind is some portable screens i have seen in the past but they were well.... very rectangle as they are more widescreen than regular widescreen just not 21x9 for theater wide

The Q&A on the bestbuy site has a reply from ASUS as saying it is a 1920x1080p resolution. Going to purchase I don't think there has been a better deal for the specs at least lately.
