If the screws line up, you can basically use anything from Samsung or LG that’s compatible, even non-OEM options. ***''IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PEOPLE REMOVING A BAD SUREVIEW PANEL: If your unit came with the SureView LCD, replace the assembly as a unit when possible. While it isn’t a requirement as you can get what you need individually (LCD and cable), it is a very time removal that costs about the same, unless you can borrow the screen and cable from a busted unit that cannot be repaired economically. You pay in time (not much saved), or cost (marginally more expensive to replace the assembly but removes the SV panel and cable in one shot) to remove it.''*** |

These are expensive, as IVO is the only manufacturer making these. I hope you like paying for the monopoly IVO has on these to keep it! There is zero difference beside the connector (9 useless pins), and difficulty finding the panel. The backlight controls are also different as well, but that’s something that only affects the panel and cable - the SV boards drive normal PWM panels just fine. |

| These machines are trickier then the G3/G4 they replace, due to the extra panel options. For the G3 you either had a 768p barf panel (not recommended) or a FHD IPS LCD (recommended). I have two of these, and I’m going to tell you…You need to know which unit you have - somewhat! | |
| There are 3 versions of this panel I’m aware of: | |
| * FHD IPS (non SureView) - standard 30 pin, pick your favorite Samsung LTN or LG IPS LCD. | |
| * FHD IPS (SureView) - semi custom 40-pin. The base 1-30 pins are the same, but 31-40 control the SureView function which is basically an embedded 3M filter inside the LCD. These are expensive, as IVO is the only manufacturer making these. There is zero difference between 9 additional pins, expense and difficulty finding these panels. | |
| * 4K IPS (non SureView) - ***NOTE: IF YOU WANT ONE OF THESE, you need the correct iDP cable AND LCD unless it shipped as a 4K laptop on day one.*** These use a standard part unlike the SureView panel, but the extra pins are needed to drive the panel. ''Best to get a 4K assembly if you want this as an upgrade.'' | |
| - | If you have this keyboard, you can ignore the SureView key altogether if you rip it out and put the panel in the trash where it belongs. As the SV HP machines are popular in businesses who want the panel and healthcare (blame HIPAA), these are more common than the non SV versions. My 4K non SV unit has a few marks, but you know what? No SV BS :-). I’m looking for a fix, but it may just need the display driver manually - deleting it may just trip up the auto detection. |
