I have a librebooted x200 which I am generally happy with. More or less the only thing that I am not happy about is the display. I have tried to find out which would be the 'best' substitute for the one that's in use now (I don't know if it's original, but I suppose so).

According to https://libreboot.org/docs/hardware/x200.html any display that's made for x200 probably work. It appears that IPS is better than TN and (perhaps) that IPS is the same as AFFS - if I understand correctly.

According to https://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=84941 the HV121WX4-120 (Matte AFFS panel) is a very good choice. But it seems that one will need the inverter (which I don't know what is) to be located at a different place.

Yet, I do not understand the technical terms and would appreciate some help.

Firstly, I would like help to determine which display would be the best choice. What choices are there and what are the pros and cons for each?

Secondly, I may need some one to point me to a guide on how to replace the display.

I you have experiences with this, please share.
