Review of Dell 24 inch 16:10 LCD


Extremetech has a review of Dell's new LCD monitor.

For $1199 it looks like a pretty nice monitor compared to the competition.

I look forward to seeing what GotApex can get this puppy for. Then I will talk Ron into getting yet another LCD monitor. He is going to LOVE this.

This is great! I have a Samsung 240T at work and have been drooling to have something similar at home. But $2k or more is just too much for me. At $1200 plus the right coupon I just might go for it.

I can't wait for the deals to come in on this puppy.

I am going to want to see some user reports but, yeah, I am pretty excited about this monitor myself.

I will be checking the deals page everyday for those Dell coupons!

Gabe:

Those deals that you get with Dell are killers. I ordered the Axim X50v with the extra battery for around $400 shipped. When it goes for normally $499 and the extra battery is another $60 and then you have to pay for shipping and handling that was a deal I couldn't pass up.

If Dell gets this new 24 inch LCD down to the $800 range they won't be able to keep them in stock.

Packer How do you like the Axim? I considered it to replace my 2215. I could've got it last week for $359 SHIPPED !

I just got the 20" 2005FPW ordered it before they announced the 24". It's a pretty gorgeous monitor and thankfully has no defects. Given that Dell Monitors initially have QC problems it's good to wait for the second batch. Maybe I'll replace the 20" next xmas, deals will be good and by then the kinks worked out.

Once this new 24" monitor comes down
to the $800 range I am on it!

I own 2 Dell LCD monitors (2000FP and 2001FP)
and they are superb! In fact, all the magazine
reviews have consistently put them att he very
top of their rating list.

Ron I just bought the 20" version of the monitor and it's stellar. The 24" adds Component Inputs to the mix. It's good to wait a bit, not only for price drops, but for them to shake out the bugs. The early version of my monitor supposedly had bad light leakage problems. The A01 revision I received Manufactured Feb 2005 had no defects. I expect with coupons we'll be seeing some killer deals on this. I love my 20" 2005FPW. I can see myself upgrading.
