I have one thing to say--- bleedin bleed!
No image retention, very little cross-hatching.... but that damn bottom left/top right bleed is there again.... I don't really watch movies on my PC and don't play games so much so might not bother returning....
But Dell do send you a new monitor before they take back the old one so I might try 1 more and if its worse then keep this one. This must cost them a fortune, I imagine most people will be exchanging their first unit at this rate!?
I am sorry to hear that regarding the bleed. Dell are right in that it is perfectly within normal manufacturer specifications even on this type of monitor. I know it is unfortunate but it's just the way it is - there are really no guarantees unless you buy something where a uniformity tolerance is specifically given, like on the S27B970D. It might be worth trying one last time - yes it does cost Dell a fair bit doing what they are doing, but that is one of the reasons they have such a good reputation for customer service. Make use of it.
Seems they're as bad as Koreans
Careful how you phrase things.
