    BenQ BL2710PT Review: 2560x1440 Matte AHVA (AUO's Version of IPS/PLS)

    Cool, very interested to hear about the AG coating, input lag and contrast level. Also, if it is IPS type, then there should be no off-angle color/gamma shift like the VA panel on my GW2750, which is annoying.

    HP Pavilion 27xi Gloss screen with heavy AG

    I have a 23-inch version, the 23xi, and that does indeed have a pretty heavy AG coating. I think the 21 and 25 inchers are also matte, just the 27" is glossy. Weird for HP to change it up within the same model/series.

    What are my 2013 options for a glossy 27" / 1080p monitor?

    HP Envy 27 would be another choice. 27" 1080p glossy IPS with decent built-in speakers. No overdrive overshoot. I would've been happy with it but I was looking for a matte display, so I returned it.

    Monoprice 30" IPS Pro Monitor

    Does it output sound in hdmi through the built-in speakers? The website mentions through a separate 3.5mm input only. Also, is there a 3.5mm headphone out jack? And does it have "keep aspect ratio" settings for when viewing non-16:10 resolutions?

    Does the Samsung S27B971D exist?

    According to that flatpanelshd link it's the screen that has been changed to matte, not the bezel. The 970d has a glossy screen. I think it's just taking a little while for the screen to reach retailers. Probably will be available in April.

    Forget about the BenQ GW2760HS in North America

    That is a shame because I would've considered getting one to replace the GW2750HM I'm currently using, which I'm mostly pleased with, but the smaller bezel and "color shift-free" claims are very enticing.

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    Should be green when it is on and displaying an image. Turns yellow/amber when it can't detect any signal and goes into standby mode. At least that's what my 2750HM does.

    Eizo Foris FS2333

    Did you order from that website you linked above and if so how quick was the shipping and service?

    AOC I2757FH 1080p IPS

    I can't read the words, do you know if they tested input lag and if so what'd they find? Thanks.

    Dell S-Line Screens - S2740L, S2440L, S2340M, S2340L, S2240M

    zod, is there a 3.5mm stereo audio out jack for the HDMI connection?

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    TFTCentral reviewed Viewsonic's 27" WQHD PLS: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/viewsonic_vp2770-led.htm and the 26ms input lag is very off-putting. Hopefully Asus keeps it low for the PB278Q.

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    Amazon has shipped my GW2750HM pre-order, though estimated delivery isn't till the end of next week. I'm kinda wary now, though, after reading all these under-whelming impressions of the GW2450. All these GW models are advertised with the same specs, so I would've assumed that they were using...

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    Damn, if Fry's had the HM version I'd totally bite. Oh well, still waiting on Amazon for the 2750HM.

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    I have a GW2750HM pre-ordered on Amazon. Hopefully they don't take too much longer. Much thanks to NCX for those above links. Looks like the 5000:1 static contrast ratio is not a lie, as well as the better response times (compared to the last batch of BenQ VA LED's, i.e. the EW2420 and 2730).

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Specs say the backlight is 350cd/m2 and in practice I felt it was pretty accurate. 350 is not the brightest available out there, but a tiny bit higher than the norm, which is 250-300. Don't think I got any vesa screws with my unit, just the two long gold screws for securing the baseplate and...
