XPS 9500 Display upgrade from FHD+ to QHD+ or UHD+ or even Oled ?

[TheQuentincc]

Hi, I recently got my hand on an XPS 9500 with a broken windows installation for cheap. I'm looking into a screen upgrade because I can't stand FHD anymore (and there is keyboard marks on the display...), the original display is a Sharp 15.6" 1920x1200, it seems like the XPS 9500 was also shipped with an LG with similar specs.
By looking at the LG specs it does use a 40pins eDP connector but only on 2 lanes when higher resolution needs 4 lanes. So that's why I wonder if the original cable in the XPS 9500 can be 2 lanes only (for cost reduction purposes) or if all XPS are fitted with a 4 lanes cables ? 

 

Also does someone ever tried an OLED display in the XPS 9500 ? I know the 9510 got it but I heard that OLED display needs to be specially supported by the laptop for the brightness to works properly.

Finally I wanna know what do OLED users thinks about their laptop display ? I heard windows cleartext or whatever isn't supported... but also that OLED display have a very short lifespan so I'm still hesitant about which display technology I'm gonna buy 😕

 

Thanks all 🙂
