This Monitors give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Fantastic!
I've had two of these monitors for a little over a week, and it's everything I was looking for. The color accuracy is practically flawless in sRGB mode. I bought this mainly because it was claimed to cover the full sRGB gamut, and after my calibration/testing, I found this to be true to claim. Here I thought that the "individual calibration" sheet in the box was just marketing. My previous sRGB IPS panels covered about 87-90% at best, and uniformity was hit or miss. I would have preferred a CCFL backlight like it's big brother, but the thinness and power/heat savings of the LED panel does have it's benefits. The fit and finish of the monitor is extremely high, and very professional (absolutely love the quick fit feature when working in Lightroom).
The glare coating is minimal as well. Don't worry about the "low" spec'd brightness either, it is not a problem. I personally could care less about off angle viewing, as I don't do it, but it is as one would come to expect...
2. edge bleeding on the unit I received
I was really looking forward to receiving and using this monitor. Alas, I must have gotten a bad unit. Seriously backlight bleeding - most of the top right corner and the bottom left. I'll post a pic I took just before packing it up and sending it back. The stand was really nice, liked all the inputs, especially HDMI (hooked up a Roku and streamed Amazon HD videos to it - looked great unless there was a dark scene, then the problem was very apparent). Overall, I liked the design of the monitor and just wished it didn't suffer from the backlighting issue. The frame/case seemed to have a lot of flex to it, and I think that was the problem - the plastic bezel was not rigid enough.
Need more appointment... ?
absolutly brilliant
I was looking for a new monitor for a while and when I saw an IPS panel for this price I could not pass it up. Especially since all the reviews were good. I have been using it now for about a month and I can not go back. The colors are are very accurate and responsiveness is as good as it can be. I use it for general office work (word, excel,etc) video (netflix, and local content in other words off my HDD) games and of course web. I have not seen any ghosting of any kind or noticed any pixel lag. Also one of the best features is the ability to rotate to portrait mode which is great for document editing as well as document reading. This is a must purchase if you need a around 22 - 24 inch panel.
Just as a reference I have played Medal of Honor (new one) Oblivion, Rage, Dawn of War 2, BF3 beta and more with no problems. Also I have watched the walking dead off Netflix and It's always sunny in Philadelphia which I have downloaded through Zune again no problems.
