Dell S2309W is going for RM599 while Dell S2409W is RM759 (and probably have a waiting period). Is the S2409W worth the extra RM159?
Besides the price difference, Dell S2409W is an inch larger and has HDMI. Since the S2409W doesn't have built in speakers, I have to use external speakers anyway. So I think I could do without HDMI.
I've read that fonts displayed on 23" at 1920x1080 looks small. Anyone has experience with that? I don't think it matter much as the extra inch is diagonal, but I've never compared them side by side. Also, been to LYP, most LCDs are displaying games or images. Can't really tell how the real working environment would look like.
Thanks

QUOTE(deathninjax @ May 18 2009, 12:21 AM) bought Samsung SyncMaster 2494HS 24" Full HD lcd monitor yesterday. Very happy with the picture quality and the build quality. The frame is matte black with glossy plastic on the top, side and bottom part with touch panel. Dynamic contrast is 50000:1. was thinking to buy Dell S2409W but seeing the dim display at max brightness, opt for samsung instead. Bought at 4th floor thundermatch LYP. the attendant said the S2409W display set was used for 1 month and it dimmed in that period. it was very nice in the beginning but deteriorate rapidly. the samsung 2494HS still look bright and nice. The color, sharpness and brightness beats s2409w easily. the color is vibrant and deep. can see all the details in the games easily. have to see it to believe it.the main menu in RE5 looks extremely nice. the fonts are sharp and the contrast and color is very nice. i bought it for RM895. worth it as it is only a bit more expensive than S2409W but the quality is much more better. Anyone having the same brightness problem with S2409W or S2309W?

How do you guys clean your LCD screen? I've used some kind of wipes for my laptop screen but they leave residues.
Thanks.
