Ok, I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to hardware stuff. I have a Thinkpad T490 with the 1920x1080 non-touch screen. My complaint is that I ended up with the model with only 45% NTSC. I would like to upgrade to something with 72%.
AFAICT, my screen’s model # is N140HCA-EAC. 30-pin connector. Is this - https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/model/Lenovo/FRU~01YN154/ compatible?
I already know there’s no blocks or whatever in the bios preventing an upgrade, just want to make sure I buy the right thing. Would rather not ship from China so NA sellers are good.
(btw I obtained the model of what I have now by running “edid-decode </sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid”, I’m on Linux Mint 20.1)
If the pins match then it shouldn’t be a issue. It should be like changing your monitor. In saying that I’ve not done this so take it with a grain of salt.
