hi guys!

i just ordered this from newegg


NEWEGG SAMSUNG 26" T260




I wonder why Malaysia doesnt sell anything above 24". In US i see so many weird sizes, like this one for example.

Anyway, its a TN panel which i think is still ok. Price is not too bad still in my budget

Will review it later...its being delivered now. WOOTT!

YO!

To these guys who were waiting for a simple review (mine ) of the new samsung T260... I have it! just got mine couple of days...so here it goes.

*Note the screen comes with the cloth pictured above

Screen Size:
- I feel this monitor is HUGE! i used to own a 2407WFP Ultrasharp and it was getting a bit small Now with just 1.5" more i feel this is really great. Will probably last longer now without the feel i need to upgrade to a bigger screen (+ or - 1yr )

Colour Reproduction:
- The static 1000:1 ratio and dynamic 20,000:1 contract is ok. Dynamic is kind shit to me, cause when i was seeing movies, the colours automatically adjust on the fly. I was like WTF! the dark just become darker and bright scenes become brighter. really disappointing, so called dynamic ratio. . But with it turned off, i think this screen is still quite good. Colours look sharp and crisp.

- Unfortunately if compared to a Dell Ultrasharp, i believe this TN panel T260 cant beat it. Dell ultrasharp is still brilliant. I feel its the quality of the glass itself that makes it look more 'crystal' like. but anyway, i guess u all know the difference between TN and the Ultrasharp.

Overall summary:
- Get a Dell ultrasharp if you can afford it. You wont regret, i slightly regret now as the on screen colours doesnt beat Dell. However, i think for the size and overall this monitor is really worth my money (bought for $510, ~RM1500 for a 25.5" panel . The hdmi and features is great. The overall glossy feel is nice too.
I think my monitor wasnt as bad as this guy. at least no bugs incased:
