I have 3 unit now.

Office use, so far, not encounter any problem, touchwood. Just the second unit got dead pixel, which had been exchanged 1 for 1.

How to test the tinted issue then?

Just set the whole screen into white/black/blue/red colour, if there is dead pixel, you can see one dot like a dirt one.

My experience on the dead pixel, I only found it after a day, once I read some document,, somehow taught there is a dirt on screen, so try to rub it off, but found only, it cannot be rubbed off. Then set the screen into colour as mentioned then found it.

After.

Only if states got cash coupon, then can get further discount, just like 2209WA currently, selling at 759 - cash coupon 50 = RM709

From experience, within 3 working days.

since LCD response time improve to below 16ms/8ms, ghosting effect is not much an issue nowadays, although some even go to 2ms, which I don't think 99.9% people can notice the difference between 2ms,4ms or even 6ms if there is no spec being printed on the box or lcd.

I think he means, nowadays lcd screen become more and more 'elongated' with changing from 4:3 -> 16:10 -> 16.9.

So even screen size become bigger from 19" (back with 4:3) to now 24" popular 16:9, it just means screen become longer instead bigger.

Your screen will be full of your oilly finger print.
or play game time, touch too hard (when want quick and hard move), screen tumbled.

Touch screen is useful for cash registered machine type, order key in, but ordinary computer usage, it could be your hand will be tired fast, as your hand won't rest on table everytime you touch unlike using mouse. While your hand work more (to touch from left to right in a 23" screen you hand move more compared to mouse scrolling) which could be tireness for the hand as well.

Touchpad in laptop is problematic even until now. So may be explore the touchscreen on laptop is the area should be look for? instead of desktop.

Drawing? yes, but you finger might be too 'thick', need sharpener to sharp your finger tips first.

Wait, too sharp, scratch the screen.

I don't think at current point of tech, response time a very important issue already. My opinion only.

As I have 2209WA e-IPS with response time of 6ms and 2ms Samsung TN panel, I cannot see any difference or ghosting. While viewing angle, picture colour quality has contrast difference.

I would say the most important issue is about budget or cost on whether selecting TN or IPS, because price gap is still big gap between TN and IPS.

It is down to individual budget, there is no right and wrong.

Cheapest IPS should be e-ips Dell 2209WA, Rm750
Edited : it is not a true IPS, but at least get rid of viewing angle issue and better colour.

I don't think shops will display IPS lcd or keep stock on IPS panel mainly due to cost wise. It is hard to sell an IPS compared to TN because price differentiate simply too big.
24" IPS cost above RM1500, while 24" TN cost RM700-800, it is very hard for shops to sell.

The offer could be renewed one. The so called "instant cash redeemption" promotion always got one, from experience, just amount might be changed, could be lower or higher.

The real offer is when they have cash coupon one, which after expired, no more.

Previously the U2410 got RM200 cash coupon, which only RM1599.

You need to type in (copy& paste) the cash coupon code into the cash coupon column.

Currently there is no cash coupon offering for U2410

I don't know, but my opinoin, it looks like scratches instead of dead pixel. (as it looks elongated, instead of dot)

Cleaning it with towel won't result in dead pixel generally.

That's weird, general dead pixel only stay in one colour, won't be like that.

My opinion, may be the action of wiping, physically 'destroy' the pixel.

The proper word should be disorientated pixel, as it is not dead yet so not classified as dead pixel.

It is pointless to use HDMI if without speaker. While generally attached speaker is so so only.

From experience, 2-3 working days only.

Don't quite understand the question.

IPS better colour accuracy is due to different technology in term of blocking/filtering the backlight as compared to TN. It is not about old or new that produce better colour.

Put side by side, can see the difference between a TN and IPS.

Me, victim being poisoned by even with e-IPS panel, Dell 2209WA.

Since then, when look at LCD for consideration, first look is what panel.
