Zero dead pixels, my WiFi is blazing fast (getting about 600Mbps on a WiFi 6 router on a 1Gb connection), no random crashes. Am I doing it wrong?

I kid, I kid. Fear not my LE brethren, there is hope for you yet. If you’re having problems with your unit, don’t settle. RMA the crap out of it until you are happy.

Side note — I bought a 512 glossy to compare and I prefer the etched screen. Just less annoying with fewer stray reflections glinting off of the screen and I find that like the etched LCD I once had, it’s far more fingerprint resistant.

Yes, the blacks are ever so much blacker on the 512, but I only notice this side-by-side. Meanwhile I am supremely bugged by the reflections that are noticeable even when they are not side-by-side. That being said, if all I had seen was the glossy I would be ecstatic. And I totally get people who come to the opposite conclusion. It’s just that now that I’ve had a chance to see them both, I prefer the etched glass more.

One other thing, some people have said the text is blurrier on the Samsung (non LE) panel, but — to my eye — it is just as sharp on both screens.
