Samsung screens on all the maxed out 11-inch and 13-inch?

[BNHabs]

Is it just me or do all the maxed out models, or more up-scale configurations have the Samsung screens?

List your model type and what screen you have here.

In another thread on this site people were listing what screens they had as well, but there seemed to be no specific pattern in which screen you get.

The only pattern that I see is that the larger SSDs seem to be Samsung instead of Toshiba.

I have a 13" w/ 8 GB RAM and 128 GB SSD coming in a few days. I will update as soon as I find out.

You should make this a poll

LG screen ultimate
LG screen other
Samsung screen ultimate
Samsung screen other

Maybe make it 8 choices, naming 11" vs 13". Random posts will make it hard to get good numbers.

How do you tell the type of screen / SSD?

 

[mattopotamus]

How do you tell the type of screen / SSD?

post this into terminal

ioreg -lw0 | grep IODisplayEDID | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6

if you get something that starts with LP you have an LG
if you get something that starts with LT you have a samsung
if you get something else you have the rare AUO

for the SSD just go to about this mac---more info---system report----serial ATA----the samsung SSD ends with SM### and the toshiba ends with TS###

Don't do it, you will be sorry

Actually, the screen thread was useful, in that it provided a link to a color profile that made my LG mad screen much better.

Edit: mattopotamus types faster. Probably cause he is using his MBA and I am using my iPad.
