Hyundai W241D-PVA

Has anyone had a chance to see/review this monitor yet? Its available from OCuk tomorrow and I'm thinking of getting one as I can plug my PC, PS3 and 360 in at the same time. I currently have a Dell 2407, but the Hyundai has PVA technology which I hear is pretty good....

Just put in an order for one. The ETA says "Overdue", but seeing how its 7:30 in the morning I think I can let them off for that. The S-PVA panel used in this Hyundai W241-D is in fact manufactured by Samsung, and it has 8bit colour (all S-PVA panels do). S-PVA panels are also meant to have better blacks and brightness, as well as wider viewing angles.

I'll let you know more when it arrives...should be tomorrow!

ETA is now 20/11/07, bah! Well as soon as yours arrives let me know how it looks!

Can someone give Baddass a kick and tell him to get cracking on some reviews of this monitor for TFTcentral?

He's been prommising ones for the W240-TN for AGES now..... but from forum pics it looks to have noticable backlight bleed (though all the inputs makes it a very capable monitor for the price imo). This PVA looks to be a nice competitor for Dell and BenQ, so we need some damm reviews already!

As long as i get it tomorrow then ill do my best to post some pics (with crysis

)

I have a 19inch tn panel right now, and i have used my bros 2407-HC so ill do my best to compare them (although i dont have the 2407 here!). Ill also try hooking up my other bros 360 too if he brings it with him.

I wouldnt really know how to do a proper review so badass please get your skates on

simonnance · 16 Nov 2007 at 12:09

pics of backlight bleeding (or lack therof) would be good, also ghosting during games!

lol let me ooooooh and aaaahhhhh first then ill feed the masses.

I can confirm that it says on the back of the monitor:

W241D PVA

However, it is using the 240D V3.5 firmware ( i dont have a clue if that makes a difference)
