The panel is LG, but the outlet is by dell. Good combination I would say DELL has some of best monitor design , The stand is amazing in everyway, And the USB ports on monitor is also amzing
New apple iMac display is LG eIPS panel. Pretty sure Apple bought out the entire supply of the LG eIPS panels exclusively for iMac displays. Since the 2209WA has been hard to get your hands on. Beautiful display. Went for ~$210 early this year with discounts.
We'll see if these panels become more common/cheaper as we push out of the recession.
Theres not a single IPS monitor selling in Brasil, that sux ass!!! I decided buy a 42" IPS television thanx to this crappy importation taxes from our country!
I would love to rotate a monitor in portrait view and navigate on web like that or even read books anda mangas like that, would be perfect, but a 42" television can´t be rotated, and a crappy TN panel would be suck ass with its horrible view angle to be rotated =X
Seems that just recently it has been taken off the Dell Small/Medium Business site. Anyone who ordered before it was taken off has had their ship date pushed back at least a month, so I'm assuming that demand was too high to keep accepting orders for the display for the time being. There is no indication it has been completely discontinued as orders are still shipping, just that it has been temporarily taken off the website. Hope that helps.
i really want this monitor but the prices in europe are a ripoff. its like double the prices here. its 329 euro wich are 420$. what a fucking joke dell are!!
Hello, Thank you for the demo viewing angles look amazing, according to cnet review the inside of the bezel reflects the screen and the deep inset causes a shadow have you found this to be any type of problem? Can you possibly post a video of the shadow if you have a chance as far as I can see this is the only issue anyone has with the monitor and is stopping me from buying right now would really appreciate if you can help, thanks again
How did you calibrate yours? I just got mine but I am wondering what I should do to optimize its already amazing picture. Does it even need calibration on all default monitor and graphic card settings?
Got mine yesterday... and, wow, the colours are so much nicer than my acer 22"... and the viewing angles are amazing compared to it. I can actually read in portrait mode... amazing! looking forward to see how the LG e-isp compares
That's because the Dell is using the higher quality IPS panels (like they used to use years ago) but sadly switched to lower quality TN panels like everybody else does... as you can see, there is a big difference.
I was going to buy one but when I got to the shipping address part, I got stuck on the business since I don't own a business. Do you have to own a business? x]
hello mate. SEEMS LIKE A NICE MONITOR. Did you play any games? Is there input lag? The colours are good? Also how much did you pay? I am from Greece and they want 400 euros
Colors seem great. I've only played Mount & Blade so far on it, but ghosting/blurring seems about exactly the same as my Samsung 226bw, which was claimed to be "2ms".
No detectable input lag, and I think I would be quite sensitive to it as I'm used to gaming on a CRT anyways.
I want two of these but whenever I enquire, they are out of stock at Dell.com

there are rumors that it is being discontinued for some WTF reason. If you don't mind buying a refurb you can find it on the Dell outlet site.

Human is an amazing thing. It can alter how we perceive something looks based on how we expect it to look.
As such, if you're doing anything color critical, calibration is absolutely necessary. And I mean hardware calibration.
