What I'd be curious about is when PC laptops with equivalent resolution are going to arrive?
High-DPI doesn't work in Windows (officially it does work, but if you try it you'll find that every app is broken), so that's effectively an unsellable product.
Not a single problem with it.
Dear display industry, Please please please increase vertical resolution. I look back on the days of 16:10 fondly and wish we could end up back there or better.
From Monoprice on the warranty: "we are guaranteeing these monitor will have less than 5 dead pixels. [...] By comparison, the industry standard, even for industry leaders like Apple and LG, is 10 dead pixels or even more." Is this true? None of my Apple devices have ever had a dead pixel, but I always assumed that even one dead pixel would be enough to convince the Genius Bar to give me a replacement. Anyone have fi…
They're probably all LG panels under the hood[1]. Different resellers have different pixel policies, and they can be a bit hard to keep track of. On these size screens, Apple won't replace And in practice, if you complain well enough in the store, Apple may replace for you even if you're under the line. [1] When I say "they", I mean these 27" IPS panels, whether they're from Apple, Dell, HP, or some random Korean com…
With their 3-year advance replacement warranty and non-glossy screen, you want the dell for $100 more.

Put the monitor in portrait mode, awesome for code and browsing ... just about anything that isn't a movie.

It's a calibrated IPS monitor, 24" 1920x1200 (i.e. 16:10).
I have one and it's great.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
If I can ask a few questions: 1) Are Ebay/alibaba retailers trustworthy? I'd hate to be shipped a lemon (assuming they even ship outside the US). 2) Why must it be DisplayPort? Doesn't it support HDMI/DVI?
1. I bought mine from green-sum on Ebay, no problems and his feedback is pretty spotless. 2. the Catleap range takes Dual-link DVI, which requires the powered adapter for (I use Apple's one for the MBP, and bought an extra minidisplayport -> displayport adapter for my work laptop).
not work for one of these displays, coupled with a Macbook Air (2012)?
If you're a bit paranoid about quality/support for some of the cheaper 27" monitors out there a good compromise is to wait for the Dell U2713HM to be on sale. It's regularly 30% off which brings it down to ~$500 (+ GST in Australia, AUD and USD are comparable). I'm happy with mine!
Am I the only one who would rather see more work around thinner bezels for better multi-mon experiences? Seeems like all the large panels have at least an inch to inch and a half bezel space; two next to each other and the non-lit area get obstructive.
