My replacement unit arrived 10 minutes ago. Bravo to Dell Service.

Not sure if its a new or refurbished unit, because the manufacturing date is Nov 2011, the faulty unit he took away was manufactured in Sept 2012.

Added on October 11, 2012, 10:37 amHonestly speaking, I really cant see much difference from the U2312HM IPS screen compared to my old Samsung 171N TN screen bought 9 years ago...1 thing for sure is that the samsung was easier on the eyes.

Latest U2312HM has higher contrast thus the very "vivid" colours out of the box, with the LED tech the brightness is way much higher than your 9-year old CCFL tech of which has worn out since (much yellowish).
Try compare both side by side and you can see the U2312HM has much detail on the colours (compare them using full range gradient colours), there you'll see the different between normal TN and entry-level IPS, higher end IPS is even better at the gradient colours, smoother especially at the end of the dark colours.
This model is the hottest so far, I would go for the higher res U2713HM, just need save up right now, hehehe.... or perhaps save up for even higher density monitor that yet to come. 4K anyone??

4X 1080p ? Lol...

The difference should be significant enough that one will not revert back to TN panel hehe. The viewing angle shall be the easiest to notice.
I heard that U2312HM has slightly high minimum brightness. Probably you placed it in a dark room?

Just so that you know... there already a 4x (1920x1200) monitor released using very old LCD tech in late 1990s early 2000s... at 22.2inches (4x the pixel density of most current monitors)....

IBM T221...

and of course AMD eyefinity.. just needs bezel-less monitors.... or projectors...

How much is the IPS237L?

i am craving for Dell U2412M now. Anyone know where can I get cheaper price out from Dell? And recommended seller here?

Well, in my case i could see the diff just by playing the same game, my previous monitor was samsung s22a100n. In terms of brightness and contrast yes i agree with u, samsung is "easier" on the eyes.


Retail price is RM 599, some shop sells at RM 589 but u could get discount though

Sony gonna release

With an equivalent BIG price.... that you can probably build this:

Haha...true, the screen of my old samsung is yellowish, probably the reason why its easier on the eyes. I place it in a bright room with a window behind me, even at 0 brightness still feel a abit tired. The U2312HM has brighter white, which is why its a bit uneasy for me.
I still prefer the CCFL tech because if you look at those old light in our house, they are comfortable to look straight at where else those LED light hurts whenever u stare at them even for a while...
Ya the viewing angle is definitely an improvement...

Yes, I think it would be good. I love external speakers and peripherals that enhance the functionality of the devices always

Eizo Radiforce RX840 for a roughly $38,000....4096 x 2160 @ 36.4"

S23, U23, U24 are excellent monitors for the money. We'd stand by them anytime.

but i do prefer U series over the new S series. Performance of U series is prior than S series in IPS display technology right ..

Tonight can see my U2312HM >.<

Any recommendation for me to do for checking up the monitor? Kinda noob :\
