Would it be rude....

OK had a chance to view both monitors. I'll be keeping the DGM. The colors seems to be warmer, less clinical than the Hazro. Tried to adjust the brightness on the Hazro. It didn't appear to work. The DGM was not sealed Like the Hazro. Both are nice. The DGM has a different modes. The "Game" really bring out the colors. Backed with OC warranty you can't go wrong.

Considering this option for my brother at the moment, I would be very interested if you could give some slightly more in depth feedback bigmac121. Do you do much/any photoshop work?
 
LOL.. Margins lately are pityful in the IT industry especially on things like monitors as the market is flooded with cheap products. More likely the they make small margin on selling you one monitor then break even/make a loss on the other one after refunding postage and selling as b-grade.

The problem is the industry itself. If you can get a 27" 2560x1440 monitor for £190, including express courier shipping from Korea, then it shows that everywhere else is grossly overpricing them. Without shipping, they're about £120.

Yeah, I know that they use A- panels, but an A+ panel isn't going to realistically make the price jump to more than 3x what they're sold for elsewhere.

Yes. I have roughly 600GB of pics spread over ten HDDs. 6 internal and 4 external. I have a canon 7D. I don't know if it's the LED factor as I gave my son the Dell 2408WTP, but pictures have so much more POP to them. In fact everything has more POP. Plus there is so much desk space too. In the mail DGM thread there was a gut who calibrated his monitor with spyda 4. He posted his setting and there are so much better than the defaults on the DGM.
I am connected via DP on a 7950. I Would get one. you have 14 days as stated on OC website. The most you'll lose is the cost to send it back.
James. Hope this helps.
 
Thanks, that's helpful. Any idea if it works with a Macbook Pro? A guy in the main thread on this forum said he couldn't get it to work. That would be a deal breaker but I can't imagine why it wouldnt work :confused:
 
Will let you know tomorrow.

I live in Gravesend.
I want to buy one but not sure which one.
If I could find these in shops in London I would go there and view them.
I could order one at the time and send them back if I don't like it. Why pay up to 5 deliveries.( send to me, send back, send to me send back, send to me),

Anyways, thanks for all you comments and thoughts. If they had the Dell 27in I would most likely get that one. But I want to buy from OC. Strange?
James.

You live in gravesend? So do I :rolleyes:

Sorry PC all the way! I would have thought it would be the way you connected. If I turn the monitor off and on I get the error "the system has detected a link failure...." But I am using the DP cable from The Dell 2408 four years ago! not sure what version the cable is....
 
I've read even worse than this. On these here forums before I am sure I read of someone that thought it was ok to buy things from a famous online retailor that has an exceptional return policy of 30 days for most things, and then send them back on day 27 having used it for the function required for a few weeks.
 
The point of the DSR is to protect the consumer becasue they can't view the product in a shop until it is sent to them. So they have an opportunity to try it out that they would otherwise not have.

So I wouldn't say it's unethical because you are using the DSR to be given the same opportunity to examine the products as you would if you went to a shop. However... petrsonally I wouldn't do it. I would look at online reviews and then order one screen. If I wasn't happy then I'd send it back but at least I would have done the due dilligence investigation beforehand.
 
I'm sorry, but for all those suggesting the OP was dishonest or unethical, and think the DSR system is open to such abuse and will cost e-tailers money, bla bla bla, why would OcUK willingly, of their own choice, INCREASE your period to return an item to 14 days?

And there are other places that offer even longer periods to return items.

Get off your misplaced moral high horse.
