I see they have 3 of these in the b grade section. You know it won't be light bleed so chances are high it is dissatisfaction with colours due to lack of calibration. Might be a bargain for someone.

There are also several reports of bad stands with slight leaning to the left. It could very easily be that too.
 
Got the urge to upgrade from the old Dell 21:9, thought I could resist but the flesh is weak!

Now the new ones are in stock and are confirmed to be the revision model, what sets the Samsung apart from the new Dell model?

It's a totally different panel, VA vs IPS, therefore no bleed or glow, but VA has been known to have more ghosting and clouding issues. So far, people seem very happy with the Samsung though. Compare that to all the irate owners of the LG IPS panel (which the Dell, LG and AOC screens all use) with its terrible bleed and glow that seems to plague far too many screens, then the Samsung is clearly the better option. Personally though, I would like to see a faster panel. Up to you whether you think it's worth waiting to see what is around the corner.

For anyone whose interested Here is what the uniformity is like on my screen.

The center square is what its calibrated too and should be as close to 6500k as possible and 120 LUM. The rest should be as close to that as possible for a uniform screen and obviously the further away from 6500k the difference the colours will appear too.
So from these results the top third of the screen is much dimmer than the center third.
The colour temp is quite far off on the left side of the screen especially in the middle and the bottom but not as bad on the right side of the screen. I believe the bigger the drop in colour temp the more red it will appear?

Also can anyone else see the red tint on this picture?
