this doesn't sound good

I thought there is someone here who bought another DELL widescreen lcd here.. can tell me how long does it takes for you to receive it?? If I'm not mistaken.. akachester?? Or is it someone else??

dmn...

I just received the eta for my LCD... 25 June

Oh my god... dmn lar.

akachester and da gang... you guys are very lucky lorr...

the promotion DELL offer I guess... RM899 and a 22" widescreen. That's awesome

since 16:9 is wider than 16:10.. is it lower in heights than 16:10??

eh akachester??

You already have a good 22" Wide... why need another 17" ??

hm..

Guys.. how long usually does one-on-one exchange applicable?? Until when??

And when we call for warranty claims.. will they send in courier to take the unit back or they themselves come in and pick-up the item??

But wow.. kianwee.. you got so many LCD arr??

eh?? Who said 22" not good for gaming??

If bryan.. he said 24" lorr.. not 22"..


But it is kinda logic there... in order to maintain a higher resolution in most game we play.. which will increase in graphic quality and so on.. we will need to have a high end graphic cards all the time for every generation released. Not really a good idea to own a 24" but stuck on 8800GTX for another 2 years when a newer generation of gc and game is available...

Now I'm furious...

Stupid DELL.. they just e-mail me about the status of my 22" widescreen 228WFP... and guess what?? They have it delayed again until 12 July...

Dmn.. I won't be home anymore by that time... very stupid la dell...

Guys.. any suggestion on what am I supposed to do now??

guys.. what is the procedure for refund from dell arr?? Need to email or call them???

okay.. I'm kinda thinking to ask for refund now as well.. a few people suggested me to do so.

But then where in Penang can I get a 22" wide monitor?? Any idea guys??

LG 226WTQ la... that one support 1:1 pixel mapping (now still looking for this awesome LCD in Penang..)

DELL E228WFP - coz it's cheaper?? but the best is thing is their warranty I suppose
Samsung 226BW - it's a Samsung..
LG 226WTQ - 1:1 Pixel Mapping



========================



Guys... in many aspect... how would LG 226WTQ and DELL E228WFP fare with each other?? Leaving the 1:1 pixel mapping behind though... I mean.. the quality and picture and so on... is DELL comparable to LG in that aspect??

okay... you just manage to convince me to ask for refund from DELL.. now I'm definitely going to do this.

Seems like I will have to look for someone to help me buy the LG 226WTQ from LowYat Plaza now...

Yup.. I'm getting from him I think.. PM him edy.. only needs to wait for my refund process to finish first... maybe Monday to Tuesday.

LittleLinnet... how long did DELL process your refund??

oh my... hope your LCD is fine... that is really bad.


I'm still in a doubt whether to opt for LG or stay with DELL... I've PM'ed s[h]sIkuA and it seems than... ETA for the LCD if I buy from him is the same too.. around 8 to 12 July as his supplier is having holiday now. So basically time is not an issue anymore since at any rate.. I will still receive it after my admission to UUM

So now let's talk about quality, warranty, and everything else excluding time factor since I'm not buying to get it before 1 July. About those two product.. DELL 228WFP and LG 226WTQ. Shud I stay with DELL or instead opt for LG??

And another thing that caught my attention is the "Entry Level" stuff. I understand that DELL 228WFP is an entry level monitor. How about LG 226WTQ?? From my understanding... this entry level thing is because DELL is using TN panel for their 228WFP. But then as far as I know... all 22" wide in the universe is using TN panel as well... including LG's 226WTQ. So does this means LG 226WTQ is also an Entry Level monitor??? If however LG 226WTQ is not an entry level monitor.. than that would definitely be one plus point for LG over DELL.

A few thing that I understand from both monitors:

DELL 228WFP - Entry Level. The picture is rumoured to be inferior than its LG and Samsung counterpart... but the plus point here is definately the warranty and the ability to warranty abuse it. Like kianwee said before... only one dead pixel and despite their Dead Pixel Policy.. we can just ask for warranty and the person who pick it up won't check it anyway. And their 30 days money back guarantee is cool too. DELL 228WFP is good in terms of warranty but quality I'm not so sure.

LG 226WTQ - I dunno what level is this... entry level too maybe?? Picture quality is said to comparable with Samsung 226BW and one of their strongest point is 1:1 pixel mapping which means I don't have to worry about my games not supporting widescreen anymore. And there is no issue of 'lottery panel' like those Samsung since they build their own panel with Philips. But the thing I'm worried about is the warranty... if I need to claim for warranty for dead pixel.. then I will have to really follow their dead pixel's policy. One dead pixel and I will just have to live with it. And no one-on-one and 30 days money back guarantee.


So guys... please recommend me something... says something. Which one should I get??

::EDITED::

Oh.. and guys.. what's so great about "Vista Certified" monitors?? I've noticed that both LG 226WTQ and Samsung 226BW has it but not DELL 228WFP

And also.. just read this from some forum. It seems that the LG 226WTQ has some serious ghosting issues?? Anyone can clarify??
