Hi everyone! I've recently bought this office laptop Asus Vivobook 16 M1605YA-MB155WS.
I am a bit disappointed with the display quality as it has lower color accuracy (45% NTSC); it's making me a bit nauseous looking at it for prolonged periods of time.

I looked around for potential solutions and found that there is a chance for the possibility of upgrading my display to a more vibrant and color-accurate IPS panel. After a bit of research, I found my laptop's screen model:

Innolux N160JCE-ELL (Panelook)

and digging around Panelook website making sure I found a better display that's mostly compatible:

BOE NV160WUM-NH0 (Panelook)

Now the problem is I don't know if this new panel is 100% compatible with my laptop seeing as Innolux's has AMD FreeSync icon and the BOE does not. Does anyone have experience in this field? Are they compatible?

If it's brand new, and yet within the return window, you should return the laptop and pick out something with a better display. Tampering with the display on a newly bought laptop can and will void your warranty.

If you must, why not just cross reference the panels that you've linked above and see what makes and models of laptop they come in, and buy said laptop instead.
