My Auria arrived today. It's definitely not an LED backlight, and it has the matte/AG screen as well.
Not a single dead/stuck pixel, but the right side of the screen has a pink hue to it, mostly noticeable on white/gray backgrounds.
Black levels confuse me though. It looks dark grey, and...
Just a couple questions about this monitor.
It says IPS, but is it a decent S-IPS or better, or the cheap e-IPS?
Is it a wide-gamut?
Is it glossy, semi-glossy or matte with sparkly AG?
There's no OSD, so I'm wondering what we can still change with just the buttons. Backlight, contrast, or...
I got this monitor today, and it seems mostly perfect. The only issues it has is 1 green stuck pixel, and a few tiny 'dirt specks' here and there, but they aren't noticeable during normal use unless it's mostly a white background. Oh, and the PIP/POP button seems to be stuck out and it can't...
Coming from a CRT, I'd say IPS is worth the premium, or you'd just feel like LCD is a downgrade from CRT.
Colors and clarity aside, the biggest annoyance on a TN panel to me are the viewing angles. Even right in front of the monitor staring at it head on, the top of the screen is darker...
I ordered one of these, now I'm just waiting on Newegg to send it out.
I'm nervous about all these problems people report though, I hope I get lucky. I'm mostly using it for gaming, not anything professional, so I guess my biggest worry is the whole pink/green tint.
Is the pink/green tint...
No, but I can't find one that isn't close to $800 shipped, and I want to see what alternatives there are.
I ordered the 24" HP LP2475, let's hope I don't get any of these issues like the green/pink thing. *nervous*
Any chance you could tell me where you bought this? (if in USA) I need to replace my broken Planar.
Oh, I just read that you can't turn down the backlight brightness on this one. :/
I moved it from one desk to another and must have put too much pressure against the edge of it, and it cracked :(
Now I can't find a good replacement. Don't S-IPS or AS-IPS monitors exist anymore? Better yet, glossy ones? With that Planar H-IPS, the pixels did weird stuff with my eyes, like...
I just cracked the LCD of my awesome Planar PX2611w, and now it's basically trash. :(
So, time for a replacement. What are the current available IPS based monitors that are at least 24" or 26" 1920x1200? I know of the HP one that is still sold on newegg for a good price, but what else is...
I just got my Planar today, and aside from 1 stuck pixel, it's an amazing monitor! I've been checking out all my games just to see how great they look. :)
Much better than the 8 year old 21" CRT I replaced.
Well, I just ordered one of these from Provantage. It looks like a nice upgrade to my 10 year old dying 21" Trinitron.
One thing I haven't found out by searching around is, does this monitor include a DVI-D cable in the box?
