. If the monitors are recent, then the revision should be A00.

Since it is a Premium Panel, you should be able to claim warranty for it even if it only has a single dead pixel.

Visit Dell's website and find the page to claim warranty.

Lower the contrast?

Did you enable Windows Cleartype? .

Have you tried disabling it?

That's true . My U2311H takes a few seconds to get the picture back again everytime I turn it off while my previous Philips monitor was much faster. Doesn't matter for me though .

If you like, you can stick to the 21.5" monitors as their size isn't too different from 23" monitors. I can only notice a slight increase in size of my U2311H over my dad's Samsung BX2351 .

You will definitely not want to return to your old monitor. Previously I was using a 15" monitor before I upgraded to a U2311H, and my, the difference is extremely big. I don't even want to touch the old monitor now .

Unfortunately no. You can only buy it from either Dell Online, and from the Garage Sales section. Or perhaps you could travel to Midvalley as I heard there's a Dell showroom there .

I don't think that's what you call "ghosting", but rather artifacts. The GPU on your laptop might not be enough for such a large resolution.

If I'm not mistaken, them Dell personnels will personally call the number you have inputted at the form to inform you when it's coming . I got a call, and not an sms.

If it's less than 21 days old, you should call up Dell Support and demand that they give you an entirely new Dell U2311H because the one you received is faulty. If you don't, they might send you a refurbished unit, just like what happened to me. I called them and demanded for a new unit though, and got it . But don't expect to get a new one if it's more than 21 days old as Dell only replaces your current unit with a new one if its age is less than 21 days.

It will be stated right on the box itself. The box my first U2311H replacement came in was a box with its serial number on it and a big label "Refurbished" plastered over it. The second one when I demanded for a totally new one came in, well, new box, with everything including accessories and stuff. They will send any replacement units in a bigger than usual box .

You can try PMing Moderno for the display port cable.

I believe Dell has special offers for their items online during times when they have the PC Fair and such.. You'll have to keep checking Dell's website to see their latest offer.

Looks to me like the brightness and contrast level is low. You might want to adjust the screen ( U2311H )'s brightness & contrast and get them to a higher level.

What about the preset modes? I have mine set to Multimedia and it looks pretty nice that way. You could try that.

It's possible that it's just an estimated time and you can possibly receive it earlier. Just wait for the magical SMS ( or call ) . Otherwise if it's really going to take that long then I guess you have no other options but to wait.

This is an example of an IPS panel's ( U2311H ) viewing angle versus a TN panel's ( BX2231 ) viewing angle ( my test ) :

. It looks it could be true that the Dell U2311H be a 6 bit panel with A-FRC. However, such information doesn't seem to be confirmed.

Well, if that's the true, then yes, the U2311H is not as good as the 2209WA since the 2209WA has an 8 bit panel while the U2311H has a 6 bit panel. An 8 bit panel can display more colors than a 6 bit panel.

That wasn't what I said. The 2209WA is apparently also using an e-IPS panel, but an 8 bit panel. Oh, and please do not simply relate any statements to me without any proof.
