Yes, indeed IPS is vastly superior to TN.



Qualifying notebooks are e.g.

- the two retina MacBook Pros

- Asus Zenbook (various)

- Lenovo Thinkpad 230 (optional, configurable via Lenovo website)

- HP Elitebook 8770w

- HP Spectre XT 15

- Sony Vaio SVS-15xx

- Sony Vaio Duo 11

- Samsung Series 7 Chronos

- Samsung Series 9



I reckon the 'village of the monster' is in Germany so you can e.g. check out this site here:

They also show the viewing angles.



Also verify the contrast (should be > 1:500) and color space coverage.
