The thing about Dell is that, they usually send third party to collect the LCD from you instead of coming themselves. Thus, they might not even know how many dead pixel you have when you decided to make a warranty claim. Last time, i claimed that my LCD came with dead pixel (only 1 of them) and other problems like unable to power up etc (it was actually my GC that was causing the problem, which i found out later) and Dell just send their third party courier over, and directly replace me with a brand new LCD (or it might be refurbished, i do not know) which is so far, so good

Acer X-series is kinda user-unfriendly

the front buttons are rigid, have to press using thumbs

the menu navigation style is so unintuitive

but considering it is for entry level segment, can't complain much lo

but the Philips LCDs also entry level, but one press only to 4:3 ratio.
makes its easier when watching movies or playing games that dont support wide screen.

so means the Acer ones needs quite a few hard presses to get it to 4:3? maybe i should go find a store that has it on display, cos ALLIT i went to at ikano only have philips, benq, samsung and lg on display.

u can't one press to do the same thing for Acer X-series,
in fact, it is 5-6 presses in total

even switching the source from Analog to DVI-D also requires few navigations on the menu

if u have the budget, stay away from Acer X-series

omg, 5-6 presses? wtf?
im actually looking at 20" wide screens with dvi input.
so the acer seems the best choice for now if not for that 5-6 presses.

anyone using samsung p2270H? the 27" lcd? comment pls..
possible, suggest me an LCD monitor my budget rm1200

Hi, sorry for a noob question. Which one is better? LCD TV or LCD Monitor to be used with PC.

depends on wat u're doing wit ur pc, viewing distance & angle.

tv a great for movies o sports games.
but for browsing, fps shooter game, LCD would b clearer.
bcoz even the tv screen is bigger, the resolution is just the same, hence, less DPI.....

If you fill up the warranty, Samsung will have a record, else they will follow your manufacturer date if you cannot produce a receipt.

I learned it the hard way when I am forced to send my monitor in for repair over a small issue just before the warranty expires (when counting 3 years from manufacturer date)

If I had the receipt, I could have repaired it much later.

then its ok, my current monitor was made in feb 2010, i bought in end of feb too

Btw I love Samsung service centre alongside Federal Highway, free drinks, and can sit down and watch BD movie clips (trailers) on their latest LED TV. The Olympic BD clips are just superb.

Check out this 23/24" monitor round-up/reviews - DigitalVersus

Certainly the best site for monitor reviews/comparisons I've read so far, with many popular monitors that are available here. The reviews include the all important colour accuracy test, and ghosting/reverse ghosting tests.
I've used 2 of the monitor they've reviewed (AOC 2434Pw and Dell G2410), and I absolutely agree with their views, especially regarding the AOC's horrible reverse ghosting.

Reviews to note - AOC 2434pw, Samsung P2370h, Acer H243H and S243HL.

Placed my order of ST2410 from Dell. Hope to hear from them soon enough Can't wait to hook up God of War3 and FF13 to that monitor
