Nice stand isn't it? Its really an improvement over my previous 2233SW which can only tilt, but unable to change height or rotate.

OT: How did you get to talk with a Dell CS? Through the online chat? Where can I find this ah?

I haven't calibrated it since I haven't yet owned a calibrator. But I posted a review on this page before, recomended calibrating setup is stated in there. Will try it once I get back home smile.gif
*
I think it depends on the panel on what settings to use. But weird is, he calibrate to 120cd/m2 his brightness settings even higher than mine which is calibrated for 140cd/m2.

What do you mean by the type of panel? His was U2412M also bro. And btw, after calibrating, do you have your own setting? or it's all in the software?
*
There will be variation from panel to panel. Plus he calibrated more or less same flow as mine...he also have a LUT loaded and also ICC profile.

Mine is set the parameters, then do a white point pre calibration to use monitor hardware to adjust, then later on fine tuning is based on video LUT.

My, all these news about the U2412M sounds very interesting. Maybe I'll ditch my U2311H and get a U2412M to pair with my U2410.  thumbup.gif

Btw, where can I buy a decent LCD calibration set and how much?
*
I bought my Spyder3Express from Yamiya. If you are using dual monitor setup, you need to get Spyder3Elite or Spyder3Pro. Express does not support loading independent LUT to separate monitors, I had to use third party software to calibrate both my monitor sad.gif

Yeah, well, you can try finding a decent 24" IPS monitor before the U2311H came out. And even then, I wasn't pleased that the U2311H was only 1080 pixels tall.

As for pictures, there's really not much to see.

[attachmentid=2391085]

Edit: Resized image to 1600x1200.
Thanks for the information. Where's Yamiya and roughly how much should I expect to fork out for a single monitor or dual monitor? And what third party software did you used?
*
Yamiya is an online shop for photography thingy, so they do sell those calibrators. You can visit at yamiya.com.my

Dual monitor setup capable Spyder cost about RM7xx if not mistaken, I don't remember the exact value.

I am using Coloreyes Display Pro, its a third party program but able to use Spyder3Express puck for the calibrations.

The main differences is one is 1080p versus 1200 I guess? In that I would go for 1200 anytime tongue.gif The extra space is worth it biggrin.gif

Whoa the Dell 30" is so cheap now! Felt so tempted but I'm already using a HP. Ugh. The 27" is also RM2k-ish, around what I got for the U2410

But you get to enjoy the U2410 years back laugh.gif

Oh well, technology becomes cheaper. Maybe in future I will be making the statement, when I change to OLED or some time in future tongue.gif (of course a sub 1k monitor only la... haha!)

Best to go through their SA, since can ask for discounts and all. If from website, nothing.

I see. got it. How long is dell's delivery? if i order today, do u think it will arrive before the 27th? going back to kmpg soon and im scared that the delivery will be too late. last time my m1530 took longer than its supposed to arrive so im kinda skeptical about dell's delivery times.

Mine ordered on Saturday, Arrived on Wednesday. Its pretty quick, since its not like a laptop where you customize then they need time to process that. All U2412M are the same tongue.gif

RGB backlight?

Anyway guys, probably the most IMPORTANT question for those wanting to get ANY Dell IPS monitors:

What if I get a dead pixel???

As you might already know, Dell's perfection to the last pixel policy doesn't allow a 1 to 1 exchange if there's one Dead Pixel. A bright one however warrantys an exchange.

So I guess it's back to the standard industry pixel policy of 5-6 dead pixels?
*
I guess you probably need to describe it as a bright pixel. Its an advance exchange right? So they should be sending the replacement then picking up the faulty unit. Or maybe anyone with experience can share some info on this?

Watched couple of 1080p movies on the U2412M, pretty good or at least I'm satisfied la smile.gif. I don't have a higher range LCD to compare to anyways.

Not really. If you're running a single monitor only, it may be difficult to tell if the colour is off or not. And it could be that my older U2410 is in dire need of calibration. At ~RM300 for the calibrator I'm looking at, it certainly won't be worth it for most users, unless you have a job that really need good colours. Calibrating by eye may be enough.
*
Spyder3Express? It doesn't support more than 1 monitor calibration on single PC.

I'm aware of that, thanks to your PMs. happy.gif

There may be workarounds however, like attaching one monitor at a time and calibrating that. What I don't quite understand is how it applies the calibration to the monitor but I haven't the time to do more research yet, which is why I have been waffling about actually buying one at this time.
*
Actually I tried before, just need to use monitor A as main and calibrate, then use monitor B as main and calibrate. Make sure you save both color profile file. Then disable the spyder software then load both using Window's loader instead.
