    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    Received my p2715q about 2 weeks ago and it appears I have a perfect copy. Uniform, no light leakage, no dead pixels. Before I had an ACD and this is certainly comparable display to the Apple. Wrote some more first impressions here: http://markdunkley.com/p2715q-review/

    Questions to those who have spent more than $2k on DSLR equipment...

    U2711 and NEC PA241W both have very aggressive LG AG coating I searched for months and couldn't find anything without aggressive AG coating. Ended up returning the U2711 and went with the apple display...I'd take glare over AG coating.

    Apple 27" LED Cinema Display

    http://twitpic.com/3qdatw/full Very happy with my 27". Finally found a decent successor for my 20" MVA vx2025wm. The gloss is ok, between LG's IPS coating and glossy coating I'd take the gloss. Some of the *VA screens have a nice semi gloss coating which is probably the best compromise...

    haha, clearly you can tell I don't wear glasses very often.

    Dell U2711

    I'm returning my u2711. One side is tinted the blue (and the other side might be slightly tinted red). I've also noticed one other massive issue for all you graphic designers out there: Throw up a solid black bar on a white background. Now move that bar to the far right/left of the screen...

    Dell U2711

    Update: Returning the u2711, one side is tinted blue and the other is slightly red. Second brand new dell that I'll be returning. Will not be buying dell again. I've been using my new u2711 for a week. My lcd history: 27" imac - Only had it for a day, IPS shine effect was less noticeable - I...

    NEC LCD2490WUXi2, trouble reading text

    It could be the pixel pitch of a 24" I have a Apple 24" and had a 2408WFP. Text both look blurry when I sit fairly close to the monitor. On my 20" and 2x17" set up home the text is razor sharp because of the smaller pixel pitch.

    Dell U2410

    Apples' 24" ACD is LED and an IPS. I have it and don't notice the difference vs. a P-MVA panel and my two older 6bit PVAs. However it is considerably brighter.

    Different qualities of 2408wfp?

    The HP LP24...something.. has the same panel as the U2410. The quality control issues on the HP look really bad and yes they complain about a pink hue as well. If you read that massive thread you might get an idea on what to expect.

    Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP really worth it?

    Best price in Canada has been $430 (not incl tax) I bought one at this price and returned it ( http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1264046&page=57 ) I use a 24" Apple ACD at work and it is much better than the 2408WFP, aside from the glossiness and the horrible lack of connectivity...

    Dell 2408WFP Now Available

    You can't because you won't be able to tell the difference on your monitor, unless you compare it side by side with another monitor.

    Thinking of returning the 2408WFP for LP2475w

    Thanks vick, the cinema display is nice but shipping to canada usually kills those deals and plus, I don't like the idea of no warranty/dead pixel policy (even if they did - I would probably have to pay shipping). Speaking of pixels I just found out my 2408 has a green stuck pixel. So I have...

    Monitor Stands / Monitors

    I was going to do a 3 monitor stand, but I believe the stands are very expensive, so I went for 3 individual arms instead. It also means that when I upgrade my monitors I don't have to worry about upgrading the whole stand. By the way if you have never worked with 3 20" monitors before...

    Thinking of returning the 2408WFP for LP2475w

    Thanks for your opinion psyside and Jeremy112. I have done some research on the the LP2475w and have the following issues with it: 1) LP2475w still can't render sRGB correctly. 2) Some people are complaining of the text issues. This could be a windows only problem, but I am not really...

    Thinking of returning the 2408WFP for LP2475w

    I wrote a small review on the 2408wfp and I was generally happy. However, after owning for close to 30 days I am a little disapointed and thinking of returning it for the following reasons: 1) My monitor hates osx. On my hackintosh it needs 5-10 seconds to turn the display on. On my macbook...
