x15 R2, problem upgrading FHD panel?

My laptop is Alienware x15 R2 (12th Gen Intel Core i7-12700H, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, 32GB memory, 1TB SSD). And the panel is FHD 165HZ. I am wondering if I can change to a better panel? I try to ask this question on Dell Support live chat, but they didn't give me a exact answer. Does anyone know it? If I can upgrade my laptop panel, what options do I have? Who should I contact? What's the price? If you know, please answer this question.

Check to see what's available on EBay.  Dell won't sell you the screen assembly for this model (unless it's required as part of a paid repair), and parts supplies are going to be very slim on these.  I think you'll find you cannot replace just the screen -- you must replace the entire assembly.

Hi @Ss. welcome to this free user to user Alienware laptop discussion forum. 

Depends on what an individual means by 'change to a better panel'. What is the priority use for your Alienware x15 R2 laptop? 

Are you looking for a Dell screen replacement, a customised screen replacement, or an external monitor?
