Which should you buy, BOE NV156FHM-T08 or Sharp LQ156D1JX01?

The BOE NV156FHM-T08 is the one to take for mainstream 15.6" FHD laptop screen replacement and wide-viewing-angle upgrade from a TN panel, though it is the wrong buy for high-refresh gaming use (60Hz only). it is not built for laptops requiring a matte 4K finish. The same goes for exact-match replacement for laptops originally fitted with the glossy Sharp LQ156D1JX01 4K panel.
