    HP ZR24w

    Well I managed to trap it somewhere between the pixels and it's hardly noticeable now. A simulated dead pixel looks far, far worse. Loving the colors on this monitor. I am now seeing what all the IPS talk was about :) I've noticed another tiny issue though and just want to check is this...

    HP ZR24w

    That's indeed what it is. I hit my desk and nothing happened. Then I tapped the top of the monitor, not too hard, and the "dead pixel" has now moved 5-6cm down the screen! I tried it a couple of times more and it seems like it's stuck again :( Any other tips how could I get this debris to fall...

    HP ZR24w

    Just got one of these. The monitor looks so much nicer in person than it does in photos. Coming from a PVA monitor, the blacks are better than I expected them to be. Not as deep as the PVA screen when compared side to side but it's a non issue for me. Also, wow, a 24" 1920x1200 monitor is so...

    Dell U2711

    Would someone be kind to take one measurement for me? As odd as it sounds, I need to know what is the distance between the front of the bezel and the actual panel surface on the U2711. One review says 5mm but that doesn't sound right to me. Thanks in advance.

    Perfect. Thanks for your help.

    This may seem like an odd question, but how deep into the bezel is the panel set on these monitors? I mean the distance between the front of the bezel and the actual panel surface. Don't ask why I need this, you don't wanna know ;)

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Thanks for your answer. So basically, the panel itself is slow so they had to set up overdrive quite aggressively which results in inverse ghosting. I've seen this effect on another VA monitor and I think it's just as bad as ghosting/blurring of a slow panel. I need a monitor for work...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Hey miomao, do you still own the Samsung 970P? I have a monitor with the exact same panel but different design (193P+) and was wondering how do these BenQ panels perform in comparison to the old 19" PVA. You say the viewing angles are worse on the Benq. That's not good. They are alright on my...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    That was actually very helpful tropiciel, thanks for the review. Out of those two, I was thinking about going with the VW instead of the EW because the former seems nicer in pictures being very thin and I don't need any of the extra stuff the EW come with anyway but you do make a good point...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Hmm, I guess you're right, but it's kind of hard to tell for sure from a video. At times it looks like backlight bleeding, then like a viewing angle issue and sometimes even as a reflection. When he pauses the movie at 3:58, the bleeding is clearly visible in the bottom left corner. But when the...

    BenQ new VW2420/EW2420 VA panel with LED backlight.

    Hey NCX. The blue tinge in all four corners of the display that you mention in your review, could it be in fact a viewing angle issue rather than actual backlight leaking? ie blacks start to wash out at angles but since we're always viewing the corners at an angle it is visible for centered...

    First Impressions of Acer G235H (Ie. Recommend Me a Better Screen)

    I also have a 193P+ and I'm having a hard time finding a replacement for it. Just like you, at first I bought a 23" TN panel to replace it after hearing those have come a long way in the past few years and I couldn't believe how better my 5 years old display was. Mine didn't even have much...

    Which 24"+ LCD?

    Ahh, Opera does a very good job at scaling. I had used it as my main browser for years but switched to Firefox because of a few addons I can't "live" without. Zooming/scaling in Firefox kind of sucks. Really slows down the browser in some cases too. What worries me about the U2711 is that I...

    Poll: 3xU2410, 1xU2711, or 1xU3011

    One thing to keep in mind about the U2711 is the tiny pixel pitch. That's the only thing that's keeping me from buying that monitor. I tried simulating text size on my old CRT and came to conclusion it would be too small for me. Even when I put my friend's laptop with 0.25mm pitch to a normal...

    BenQ EW2420 A-MVA 3,000:1 ANSI Contrast LED Monitor Review

    Yes, this was exactly my problem with the TN that I bought but it was much more pronounced from top to bottom even if the screen was fairly short in height. At first I thought I had a faulty unit with uneven backlight. As it turns out, all TN panels look like that. I'm happy with the viewing...
