I'm looking to replace a Dell 2408WFP (PVA, aRGB) with a 2560x1440 or 2560x1600 screen for photo editing. Maybe two of them, though I'd ideally like one screen in sRGB and another in Adobe RGB. I've got that now with a 32" 1080p TV, but after a few months with a rMBP, the pixel density is getting too low to stomach.
Priorities:
* Color accuracy
* Cost < $700 (refurb OK, used from Amazon Warehouse OK)
* Matte
* Color/backlight uniformity
* Minimal or zero dead pixels
* VESA mount
Nice:
* Contrast ratio > 700:1
* Light coating (less is more, but I'm fine with my 2408 and I doubt it's a 'light' AG coating)
* sRGB gamut preferred or sRGB emulation w/ Adobe RGB panels, but either is fine
* Minimal PWM flickering
Don't care:
* Indifferent between 27 and 30
* Power use
* Backlight tech
* Lag
So far, I'm looking at these:
Asus PB278Q
Dell U2713HM
HP ZR30
Achieva Shimian QH300
Should I add (or subtract) from this list? Thanks!
