Laptop screen recommendations - Fedora 22 & KDE

[J.Witvliet at mindef.nl]

Hi,

It certainly looks nice, though one point to consider, the display.
For many years I used a IBM with a 15"display, but after it was totally run down, it got replaced by a Toshiba portege T30.
Very nice, fast I7 cpu, 16G mem, working wifi and 4G modem, long lasting battery, ssd, but also a 13" display.
Most of the features I use sometimes or regularly, but the display frustrates me every single second.

Just my 0.02 c

Subject: Laptop screen recommendations - Fedora 22 & KDE

Hi all;

I'm currently running Fedora 22 on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (3rd gen).  Fedora works well on it, my only complaint is that the screen has a built in anti glare filter and seems washed out, I'm not sure if this is the anti glare filter or if it's that Linux support for the Video card (Intel HD Graphics 5500) is not quite there yet.

I'm planning to upgrade to a new X1 Carbon with more RAM and a faster CPU, I run the KDE spin. I wonder if anyone has any experience 'scaling' 
the KDE display with Fedora 22 (KDE 5 I believe) and what might be the best screen to run? Might the higher res screen fix my washed out screen issues? How well would it work with KDE 5? Other comments?

My screen options are as follows:

14.0" FHD (1920 x 1080) with WWAN

14.0" QHD (2560x1440) IPS with WWAN

14.0" QHD (2560x1440) IPS Multi-touch with WWAN



Thoughts?


Thanks in advance...
