HP review of new lcd's 27 and 30.

This is my final question, going to buy a new monitor next week.
Anyone expecting 100% perfection for 100% of every panel for the VP2770 or any monitor is delusional. I've returned/exchanged Dell, HP and Asus monitors over screen imperfection issues. My VP2770 has been great. No bad pixels, no color problems, no nuthin' to complain about. If I find anything wrong with it, I'll make use of its 3-year warranty.I'm seriously considering taking this thing for a test spin.
I see some comments on Newegg and especially Amazon that doesn't inspire great confidence in Viewsonic's QA/QC. Think "panel roulette."
What say you all, especially owners?

I RMA'ed my Dell 3008WFP three times because of bad pixels and won't hesitate to do the same with my VP2770 if I find any on it. So far, however, none have appeared after a few months use. Of course, now that I've made such a statement, I'll probably see a dozen of those little white bastards by the weekend.^ Yes, but consider the fact that some of those reviews that are positive have had to get at least one replacement themselves. And that I've gone through three that were all messed up in some way.
Honestly, the manufacturer (Dell aside) doesn't even seem to matter. Quality control is just a lot... or bit... better than Korean panels... maybe. That's it. No matter what you get, the one you stop on is pretty much independent of who you're getting it from. In other words if you interchanged the order to being Viewsonic-> The other three you tried, you might have ended up with either a wildly different result (because it isn't time invariant), or the same one but with another manufacturer. Then you would have been screaming, say, HP is the best... or something.
Well, that's just how I see it right now.
Valid point. My only "semi-complaint" is that I wish it was glossier. It's listed as semi-glossy, but appears matte to me. Hey, I like glossy.Certainly fair enough. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't an "excessive past the norm" type situation here.
Oh, and you guys comparing this to a "Korean" monitor? This IS a Korean monitor, or at least a Korean panel, and wouldn't be surprised if it was produced on the same line as the cheap Korean units, albeit passing QA.
=DEAD= said:The Monitor Viewsonic VP2770-LED uses PLS matrix semi-gloss (or semi-glossy) surface and the corresponding lack of a visible deterrent of many crystalline effect. This, by the way, one of the main advantages of such matrices as compared with modern IPS solutions. Although the latter are moving away from the use of coarse-reflective film thanks to the initiative of the respective LG Display. And soon one of the competitive advantages of PLS ​​will cease to be so.
The structure in question pixels with high accuracy repeats what he saw on the Samsung S27A850D and ASUS PB278Q. Dell U2713HM monitor is a little bit behind. Based on this, I only repeat, saying that the purity of the surface of the first place is still occupied by "high gloss" of the matrix, after they go PLS panel, Samsung, and new versions of IPS AMVA. Complete my previous rating IPS panels LG Display, which managed to become famous for crystal clear discernible effect and set so far in many current models of displays.
The standard gamut semi-glossy AH-IPS panels also suffer from obvious overshoot ghosting (latest U2713HM revision, Fujitsu P27T-7) or use insultingly low LED PWM Dimming Frequencies (LG).
I've been following the U2713HM and some owners say that the newest builds "October 2013" don't suffer from overshoot ghosting. I'm not sure how accurate this is, the only reason I am considering it is because of the price and warranty. I'm planning to purchase two 27" monitors and Dell is actually offering $1119 (Australian dollars = $992 US) for two, whereas the VP2770 in Australia is actually AU$900 (US$800) for a single monitor. That is 80% more than the Dell. Not sure what to do now?
A few questions:
#1 Do you plan on watching blu-rays on a console/external player and/or playing console games
Price isn't that much of a problem if the price difference is warranted.#2 Can you afford 2x Viewsonic VP2770's
Probably not as well as the Dell. As I mentioned it's only available from smaller retailers around here.#3 How easily can you return the Viewsonic/non-Dell monitors (return shipping $)
Probably a little bit easier, but if I had to return a few of them before I settled I probably wouldn't want to go through that.#4 How easily can you return the Dell
#5 Do you value your time: consider how long it will take to box up and return a monitor
hello there,
I am considering this monitor for photo editing and normal activities (surf the web, watch movies). It will probably be connected to a retina macbook pro. Is this a good one? Are there a lot of defective units sent back? I plan on buying from Amazon so I can just send it back. What is the pixel warranty or general warranty on these? Should I wait for the 4K 28'' dell display?
Finally got around to getting one of these, and I'm incredibly satisfied. The antiglare is PERFECT. Screen is sharp and clear, not a hint of grit or rainbow. Also, there isn't a single bad pixel. Seems like Viewsonic actually knows how to QC their products. There is a little bit of glow at the corners, especially the bottom left, but you'd have to be looking for it on a blank screen to notice it really.
Still messing with the options. I'm currently using a Contrast 60/Brightness 30 setting on Native, and liking it pretty well. Colors are still vibrant and whites are still white but without being eye-burning.
