27 inch IPS 2560 x 1440

[RSKeisuke]

Looking for the above monitor.

Shortlisted Dell U2715.

Any other recommendations?

Would love to have something with thin bezel, wide viewing angle, good screen uniformity, low or no backlight bleeding and good contrast.

IPS liao you still need wide viewing angle?

 

[RSKeisuke]

I am not sure about it. Does viewing angle differs from different IPS panel makes?

 

[GrimaH]

IPS already provides the widest viewing angles.

now got new model already. Qoo10 video-pro selling U2717D at $769 when I bought it. Go check it out.

 

[octacon]

eh... not sure about it but AOC for one which is sub SGD$500 in taobao. Still thinking about getting it.

 

[FinalTidus]

I don't think all IPS provides wide viewing angles.

there is IPS, e-IPS, S-IPS, H-IPS etc etc...

And each one of them have slight varying levels of viewing angles. Not to mention that the manufacturing process also affects the quality of the panels too.

how does the 2717 compares to the 2715?

All up to 178.

I don't know anything about 2715H, but it's thinner bezel for the new model. And I'm very happy with it.

 

[hlots123]

any idea abt this problem being mentioned, abt blurry text & blurry scrollbar at edges of thin bezel monitor?

other than the bezel? any hardware differences? or only cosmetic differences?

my inherent problem with today's monitors lie with "LED" technology in general. Ever since I was a child, I have always felt irritated I can't seem to see the dark blotches on the screen during a particularly dark scene.

Then plasma came and suddenly, it seemed that my problems were solved. Then plasma went and for all the hurrah about LEDs, my problems came back.

TS, if you are like me and want good contrast ratios, IPS will never solve your problem. The best you can possibly do is to use a VA panel or like me, pray that OLED gets cheaper.

In any case, all IPS panels (except VA) will advertise a 1000:1 static contrast. TN panels will generally give you lower statics of maybe 8-900:1.

I think that's the problem with edge-lit panel instead of back-lit with micro dimming panel.

IPS liao you still need wide viewing angle?

he needs 360 degree transparent monitor

how does the 2717 compares to the 2715?
