I was looking at the dell inspiron 7577's screen, and according to dave lee the SRGB is on 75%, i'm not sure what the percentage of the adobeRGB was, but is that good enough for video editing? i don't do color accurate work, just keying and editing for work, wanted to know if it's good enough for that, because i've been wanting that laptop for a while now, but couldn't really make the jump.

It's good enough, if you want more colour gamut get a laptop with 4k display (4k display usually has high colour gamut)

75% of srgb it's pretty low, try to get a IPS panel, TN are just good for gaming. I have a laptop with a tn panel and a professional monitor that covers 92% of ntsc (72% of NTSC is more or less 100% of sRGB) and the difference is HUGE. For normal use 75% of sRGB it's fine, but for video editing? I'm not sure

For editing, if you don't care much about color accuracy, 75% sRGB coverage should be alright. But if you do care, I think most will go at least 100% sRGB and 70%+ Adobe RGB coverage.

Thanks for the info, it's a IPS panel, and i won't be doing any color accurate work at all, maybe some keying here and there, but that's about it.
