Yes you are correct, i was just using the compare feature on Panelook between those two and i also just noticed that change.
So it's set, im ordering the B156HAN01.1 model that you got for yourself as well.
Since the day that i got this laptop i had only two cons/issues in terms of the laptop as a model (got it 1 month used, mint condition or rather say just unboxed).
1. Bad Display Panel
2. Small battery
Thanks to your idea,research,inspiration i can solve these two problems and make it a perfect laptop and be able to use it at max capacity for a decent period of times as for now i have bigger and more important budget priorities.
Since im pretty much happy with everything else with this laptop, spending 120 Euro for the display panel, Ultrabay battery and the WIFI/BT Card it's a Jackpot for me. im fine with 8GB ram and a 2.5" 256GB SSD for now and can afford soon after a nvme upgrade.
I have always enjoyed hardware modifications ( you can probably tell from my signature!) so it is good for me to now have a laptop I can upgrade myself. I use windows under parallels for my business work so having fast large storage and lots of RAM ( 10GB for Mac / 10GB for Windows ) makes it much more pleasant for me. Hopefully the battery will be here soon as simultaneous use of two OS and the extra hardware does mean I need to be plugged in pretty much constantly at the moment. it's also nice that I have still spent a great deal less on this than I would need to on a MacBook with much less storage or memory.
As you know, I only made the decision because of the great work you did on this guide [ which was super easy to follow ]. So, once again, thank you.
