I received my 3rd U2410 from Dell today. They sent me a brand new unit instead of a reconditioned one. There is no dead or stuck pixel on this one. But panel uniformity is back to the first unit I received. Left side has green tint and right side has pink tint. I'd prefer if the whole...

There just isn't a whole lot of options for high quality 24" LCD monitor that is priced reasonably. Your cheapest option is to buy the Eye One Display 2 and calibrate the monitor under sRGB mode. You get the most accurate color this way. Apple ACD 24" will get you pretty accurate color...

Dell here has agreed to exchange a brand new U2410 via their factory in China instead of sending me another returned/reconditioned unit. This will be the 3rd unit they send me. They said asking for a refund will require approval and will likely to take a month to do so. So fingers crossed...

I've the U2410 and I calibrated it using EyeOne Display 2 under sRGB mode and the color is acceptable. There is a bit grain in dark patches, due to Dell's color processing of Wide Gamut Standard mode to sRGB. However, you can use Standard mode if the LCD is hardware calibrated and viewing /...

Sorry, no, Firefox does not default to sRGB when image is untagged. I've tried it here, have you? Different folks, different stokes. I found having incorrect color unacceptable, while I can accept some grainyness in dark images. I don't play games (at least not anymore), so I don't look...

To further show you what you have perceived being right on the brightness on the Lagom blacktest, do this: Put the monitor in sRGB mode. Take the blacktest.png file, open in PS using sRGB working space and convert it from Index color to RGB. Then use "Edit->Convert to Profile..." and...

Is Firefox color managed? Yes and No. Yes - it does display color correctly for JPEG images with tagged color profile. No - it does not display color correctly for images without color profile. It just assumes the monitor's color profile instead, which is wide gamut in this case. Now...

Yes, it comes with Display Port cable.

I'd argue that the avg user surfing the web should use sRGB mode in order to get the correct color. Also, calibration using sRGB mode does produce a very small delta-E meaning accurate color is achieved. See the tftcentral review on this LCD. With Custom mode, you reduce the red channel...

Yes, that's the sad truth;)

I had Spyder 3 Elite for 2 days and returned it. It is just not a very accurate colorimeter. Eye One Display 2 is the defacto standard amongst graphics professionals/photographers. The other unit I'd recommend is the Pantone Huey or Huey Pro. The Huey gets the job done better than the...

By providing a LUT in the form of a monitor/color profile. You can set the ICC profile in Windows (WinXP will need WinColor in order to activate the ICC profile, Win7 does it automaically).

You really need a colorimeter to take the tint out. I'm not talking about pink/green tint panel non-uniform issue. The defult sRGB mode is greenish and i1 calibration confirmed this as well.

You should set the U2410 in sRGB mode if you do not have device like i1 to calibrate/profile your LCD. Using Standard mode (wide gamut) will give you wrong colors on Windows desktop and for applications that are not color managed. If you have profiled your LCD using a colorimeter, and edit...

I removed the monitor profile and yes, there is no banding in Standard or sRGB mode. With monitor profile in place, there is an ever so slight banding.. I redo my i1 measurement, and opt to use large LUT. It seems to improve things a little bit.

I went to an Apple store and looked at their LCDs. Unfortunately, they don't have the LED Cinema Display, so I looked at the LCD on the Alu 24" iMac. Upon looking at the Lagom gradient page, it is extremely smooth. Virtually no banding at all. Now I'm looking at my U2410. In sRGB mode...

The latest info on this panel is that it is 8-bit + A-FRC so it can mimic a 10-bit panel via dithering. This is the same panel used by Eizo CG243W and SX2462W, both claim to be able to display 10-bit color via Display Port. Even it may not display sRGB correctly, it should be quite close...

That's probably wishful thinking. Eizo also uses LM240WU4 in their SX2462W and CG243W LCDs. I've contacted Eizo and they told me it is an 8-bit IPS panel.

Can you give us the reference showing this is a 10-bit panel? According to tftcentral, it is listed as 8-bit panel. Eizo SX2462W and CG243W can accept a 10-bit per color signal with DisplayPort. Dell does not say whether it can or cannot. The problem will not be hardware, but software...

Actually, Dell cannot really fixed the issue via a firmware. Maybe they can improve it, but not fix it. I consulted a friend who works for HP display division. Here is what he had to say: === One can shrink the color gamut of the display by using color correction. Bits are lost in two...

As a LCD with IPS panel, it is considered cheap! Eizo SX2462W is 3 times the price. I think people who buys IPS LCD are more critical than the average user that is happy with just a TN panel.

So is your U2410 made in USA? I got mine in HK, and it is made in China. My previous LCDs were Eizo (IPS and VA panels) and also a Dell 19" with Samsung VA panel. My 1st U2410 has pink/green tint, the 2nd one is more uniform, but has a dead pixel :(

Put the U2410 in sRGB mode and let us know if you see accurate color or not.

What RGBCMY values do you have for Custom mode? I tried reducing R=43 and G=35 (as the wider gamut triangle in Standard mode have deeper red and green compared to sRGB) and did a calibration with i1 Display 2. It just can't get the gamma to 2.2 (only achieved 2.4) and color temperture reached...

I went to the Lagom site and found the black dither problem you're talking about. It is not very obvious unless the patch is blow up very large on the screen and also when the room is very dark. It is hard to say if this can be cured entirely via firmware. And even if Dell fixed this via...

To me, it is important to get accurate color, not artifical colors that may perhaps please my eyes. Windows and all the games written there are based on sRGB space. Naturally, one should use the U2410 in sRGB - unless you're using Photoshop with Adobe RGB, then you may want to use the...

No, Apple LED Cinema display does not have tinting issue. They have a color shifting issue that was related to the OS X. It has since been fixed with Snow Leopard. Did you have a refund and reorder or just exchange for your screen 5? It looks like your screen 5 is my screen 2, in which...

You should set the U2410 in sRGB mode in order to get correct color displayed in Windows - even Win 7 does not manage the Desktop / wallpaper color. Win 7 should have used the monitor profile and adjust the color when a wide gamut display is used. If you put the U2410 in Standard mode, the...

I share the same experience similar to yours. My first U2410 has no dead pixel but there was a pink tint on the lower right and greenish tint towards the left. I calibrated it using i1 Display 2 and the green tint problem was still there. The problem was mild, but hack, I thought I asked Dell...
