Same here - U2711 huge disappointment due primarily to AG treatment. Cost me $50 to find out (return shipping to my ebay seller. ) At least you found out for free!

I currently have a 2405WFP but have been looking at replacing it/getting a 2nd monitor. I'm curious how the Asus compares to the Dell. Let us know.

So to anyone who's actually used both, is the AG treatment on the ZR30w similar/same to the ZR24w? I was vaguely holding out hope that the ZR30w might be an option since the U3011 is now off my list based on my experience with the U2711. :(

Well I understand both positions and wish we had a choice: glossy or matte finish on any given monitor. Or actually maybe just a milder AG treatment. I currently have a 2405WFP and the matte finish is perfect. I bought a U2711 and (naively) assumed it would look the same. Instead, within a few...

Return it. This is the crazy anti-glare coating on these IPS panel monitors. I got a Dell U2711 recently and had the same problem. It was terrible. I sent the monitor back. Can't believe they're selling these like. I realize it doesn't bother every one, but manufacturers should at least offer a...

My ebay seller agreed to accept a return for a refund on the 2711 even though that's outside his stated return policy, so I feel like I dodged a bullet. I understand some people don't mind the anti-glare coating, but to me it was immediately noticeable and quite unpleasant. I'm really surprised...

I just switched back to my 2405WFP and what a relief - so much easier on the eyes compared to the U2711. I just emailed the ebay seller to see if he'll take the 27" back. If not, I guess I'll have to try to sell it locally on CL. Kind of PITA. I should have done more research before buying the...

Hey - I need some help here guys: got a U2711 yesterday after months of longing for either the U3011 or U2711. However, I didn't do my homework and was caught by surprise by the AG coating thing. I'm not sure if the ebay seller will take it back for a refund, but he also has U3011 and I'm...

deleted - see next post.

Wish I could say the same. I got mine yesterday as well and am coming from a 2405WFP which is still great after 6 yrs. The problem for me is the AG coating. It is really bad. Sparkles all over any light colored area - white, grey, even colors - and an overall pinkish-magenta tone (yes I tried...
