    Are you sure it's the blur that's causing this or it's actually the choppiness? Choppiness is something I see with most VAs out of the box and you can get rid of it by setting sharpness to the lowest level (usually 5, the most soft setting). The text may become blurred, but you should get...

    Can you try to test it using the lagom pixel inversion tests please? http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/inversion.php

    So I bought the HP S270c... and returned it almost immediately. But thanks to that I am almost sure now what bothers me... it is the coating when it's hard (this HP was very good)...however what causes eye strain for me is pixel inversion issues!!! This S270c had extremely bad pixel inversion...

    I am now again considering getting the HP S270C that you suggested earlier. It is quite expensive for what it is, but if it is the only option going glossy/semi-glossy I'll probably give it a try. Would there be any info on the panel type somewhere available please?

    OK, thanks for the info. However, the following review site actually calls a similar model of EW2750ZL "semi-glossy": https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/benq-ew2750zl/ But as there is no definition of what semi-glossy really means in terms of coating lightness, you just may be right. However I am...

    So I had a chance to see the Samsung C27F390F in a shop nearby and it's a no-go. I'm starting to feel the well-known eye pain within several minutes. It's not bad at all, but it's there. Would there be a photo or information on the coating of the following two please? Benq BL2700HT Benq...

    Thank you very much for this! Will give it a try then. Looks like Samsung S27C750P could be my holy grail (semi-glossy screen), but they don't sell them anymore :( I don't see any direct successor to this monitor.

    Thanks a lot for your answer, igluk. However not sure I'll be getting any of those 2 - one seems to be an all in one PC, the other is a presentation monitor with big speakers. Of course I'll give it another thought if there's no other option. The thing is I do not really need a glossy or even...

    Can someone please recommend a VA with the lightest coating? 24 or 27. No other requirements, just the coating. Thanks a lot

    Are you sure you have 100% scaling set in Windows? I actually have not seen any monitor that would not at least on the sides and at least slighly flicker on one of these patterns. Most monitors flicker with 4a/b or 7a/b. Also please try to look on the screen under a sharp angle while watching...

    OMG, no :) The flickering while scrolling is caused by the slower panel response times which is perfectly normal with VA. The pixel inversion flickering is checked when you look at those images without any moving of the pictures. You can actually move them around the screen, but they should...

    Hi, hard to say. Are you sure it is EVERY pattern? On my 2483hsu-b1 it is just 4a or 4b depending on the offset and then the green pattern. I already wrote to iiyama to see what tool they use to test it and whether there is a chance to RMA based on the results. If it is really so bad for you, I...

    During the green test, do you see stronger flickering when you look at the screen from the sides (under a sharp angle)?
