Advise for all possible Dell U2410 buyer, try to avoid this monitor at all cost!!!

The monitor come with a manufacturer defect of Pink/Green Tint issue, and the solution provided by Dell was "Within Spec" and "Show me a 24" EIZO for $529 and lets compare." By Dell.

You can look into the matter here:

and here:

Im one of the victim, and im currently promoting their crime.

Just a remind from previous thread to avoid additional unhappy customer increases~ cool2.gif

Hi there,

Ohh.. no... So funny here. Previous week, you and others recommended this monitor and I look at specs and found that it's quite good. Read a few posts and review in cnet and etc. So I bought a unit also last week and arrive last week. Was using it over the weekend. Excellent monitor.

Now pulak, you say there are issues here. Wt, ha ha...

I read some post that not all are affect with this. Can you post some screen shots of your issues that you face on this? Now in office, not yet look at the issues, hopefully none finger cross.

Additonally, you mentioned in your other posts that you have change quite a couple of times the monitor previously. Hopefully, I am not getting your first monitor because it came quite fast. Initially, there was a person from India who contact me saying that the monitor is in India under production (Tuesday) and the goods arrived in Malaysia on Thurs!! Either efficient production and super post laju. Ha.. ha...

Did you sent back to Dell due to these issue on Pink/Green Tint? Thanks.

I have 3 unit now.  biggrin.gif

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?

Hi,

Thanks for your prompt replay.

Lol, you must have some sharp eyes there. Look at this then to see whether you are still focusing correctly. Ha ha...

Asia's U2410 is likely to be produced only in China .... the call centre maybe in India (not the production facility).  Info available on the plastic tab behind the USB ports/card reader.

Tint issue.. Green on left screen.... Pink on the right side (or other variations of screen uniformity)... Mine U2410 has it to, but very slightly on grey background, un-noticeable on white background. Tint issue varies from panel to panel. You can fault LG's production and Dell not getting the cream of the crop (Apple, NEC, Eizo and HP gets first dibs.)

Your monitor should be new, it is the request for replacements that may get refurb. units.

There is also the dithering issue on Abode RGB and  sRGB modes. This will be address with new firmware. Very bad on Dell's part.. 2  and 1/2 years ago with the 2407wfp banding (firmware issue), still with firmware issue with the latest Ultra I guess it maybe wise to always wait for rev A01 on Dell's product...

Hi,

Thanks for your input here.

Btw, not sure whether you are connecting your PS3/video to the monitor, how do you connect the sound output from monitor to sound speaker beside buying a Dell speaker extension? I have connected the HDMI cable from video player to monitor and wondering how to connect it to sound speaker? Do you unplug the speaker that is connected to computer to the monitor? Or do you need to buy another kind of cable? Thanks.

Hi UltraConductor,

Ok, noted on your comments above. Would like to check with you also whether you have connected the HDMI cables to video/PS3? For the sound output, did you use a 3.5 mm line to connect to the monitor? BeastX is also checking on this. Thanks in advance.
