Hi guys, I just place my order for a Dell 2007wfp.

I have some questions here, hopefuly you all can kindly help me to answer it.

1) What are the chances that I will get an S-IPS panel? If I dont get an S-IPS panel, is it possible for me to call them up and ask them to exchange an S-IPS panel for me?

2) I call them up and the sales rep says it is a Rev A03, anyone know what is fixed in Rev A03?


Thanks in advance.

How do you know it is a S-PVA?

If you're talking about the panel code not matching the old A02 panel code of the S-IPS which starts with LG something, then it is that way.

Since Dell hides their panel code now on their system menu.

Try to see if your panel has S-IPS charateristics or not, so far the last time I received the 2007WFP (around November) it is still a S-IPS panel.

Dead pixel that one cant do much >_<, my 2407WFP also have one dead (luckily it is at the corner, so very hard to notice). In fact I had two frns who bought the 2407WFP before and both of them had zero dead pix. My first 2407WFP came in with 3 dead, I complained, they replaced my reordering for me, next shipment got one dead. Anyways 1 dead is better than 3, and I damn fedup with replacing already (I replaced my 2007WFP 3 times, twice by the refurbished brand new [next day replacement], once by reordering)
*
I know it is a s-pva coz the panel code is sam wsxga LTM201M1, weirdly mine is still rev A02. Call them up for a replacement, as I wanted Rev 03, besides the dead pixel really annoyed me. Hope can get a replacement la, coz the care line assistant say will get back to me.

by the way she did say she want a screenshot from me, but dead pixel where can capture screenshot? I tried to call her back, but her extension no one answer. Damn.

Huh? You just bought it and they ship you a A02?

The 2007WFP was on Rev A03 for quite some time now. What was your manufacturing month for that LCD? The last time I received the 2007WFP (about early Nov), it was a A03 Manufactured on October 2006.

Call up Customer Service instead, demand them to replace for you, demand for a brand new if you just received it (not more than 7 days I think). A brand new as in reorder again, NOT the next day replacement system. The process for them to reorder and replace for you should take 3 days or so, similar time frame that will be taken when you ordered your LCD before.

Yeah, I just bought it and got it yesterday, weridly it is Rev A02. manufacturing date is october 2006.

I call them up yesterday, the customer service says that they will call me back today. Hope everthing is alright. Thanks for yout tips Haruji.

BTW, how can I make sure the replacement I received is a brand new monitor and not a refurbish set. How to distinguish them? Both also come in a brand new box?

Sure you can capture the dead pixel...
you can always use Photoshop to "enhance" your picture tongue.gif

haha, called them up again today and they said snap a pic with a digi cam but I told them I dont have a digicam so now I dont need to send them the picture, only the serial number.

QUOTE(ahsham @ Dec 28 2006, 12:01 PM)
- check the box (most of the time the refurbish set comes with different box)
- check the manufacture date
- check the "usage hours" in the menu's factory settings
*
k thanks for the tips but....
1) how different is the box? and what if my replacement unit comes in a "not most of the time" different box? sweat.gif

2) mine was manufacted in october 2006 even though I just got it yesterday, so how to accurately judge by the manufacturing date?

3) If I am not mistaken, usage hours can be reset right? cry.gif

Really? A02 is better?
Dunno la, hope to get better luck this time. Wish that this time I would get a S-IPS and Zero dead pixel monitor, even though if it is S-PVA with 0 dead pixel I also dont mind la, just doesnt want any dead pixel on my monitor. Hope everything alright, the careline assistant assure me that the replacement unit will be a brand new one, but she said might take 2 weeks for it to arrive. Wonder she got con me or not doh.gif

Bad luck for me I guess, if I am not mistaken, it was written on the box that it was made in China.

By the way guys, where does all your 2007wfp Dell monitors made from? Coz mine is from china, and it is A02 spva panel. So if yours are made from other country then I might specify that for my replacement I would not like a monitor produce in china.

Em... guys, I need some advice here. Just got my replacement Dell 2007wfp. It is a S-IPS panel and Rev A03, but the problem is it have 2 dead pixel in the middle of the screen and 1 dead pixel on the bottom corner.

So I wonder shall I keep my old one which is a S-PVA panel with Rev A02? Coz the old one only have 1 dead pixel which is on the upper corner. Coz it is not so obvious in the corner as compare to the new one which is right in the middle.

It would be great if you all can help me figure out which one to pick, I am kinda bad luck, no matter which 1 I choose, in the end it will gonna end up with something wrong, so I dont dare and dont know which one to choose. Thanks for the help. notworthy.gif

Change again would be great, but I am afraid they might give me a refrubish unit if I change again, besides dell policy is 5-6 dead pixel, but I only notice 3 or so. I guess they wouldn't change for me even though I request.

Damn, according to the Dell's care line assistant, I cannot return the new replacement unit to them. But the problem is that the new replacement unit is worst that the one that I wanted to replace. This is really not good. Mayb I will just refund the whole damn thing and buy some other LCD brand. BTW I am using a 2007wfp.

Any recommendation?

1) Budget is around RM1.5k,
2) Must be a wide screen,
3) great viewing angle,
4) multi input port (DVI and VGA is a must),
5) is bettter or on par with 2007wfp tongue.gif
6) fantastic, nice, and retro design.
7) Used primary for gaming and watching movie - so should be a fast response time lcd with no ghosting effect when playing FPS game.
8) (please add in anything relevant).

thanks notworthy.gif

i tot they suppose replace the unit ? if they dun, then ask for FULL refund loh... sure they will replace one... whistling.gif

yah, that's what I told the care line assistant, if they dont replace I will refund and she say she will talk to her manager.

But full refund also minus RM80 shipping fees, so not really a total refund rclxub.gif
