Dell UltraSharp U2410 IPS LCD - Update

Here's an update to this LCD. Incase you missed the previous post, link here: Dell UultraSharp U2410 24" LCD Monitor

It's truly an awesome piece. It's not just a display kit. It's pretty much a sexy piece of art machine.

UltraSharp really is ultra sharp. But later about that.

My friend compared it to his high end Samsung LCD. And as with Samsung LCD, they are well known for having a brilliant color display. Their colors are deeper and nicer than most LCD out there. Well, U2410 is not bad it self. Not trying to beat Samsung at color, but you could say, they were actually on par. Not bad!

But U2410 does have it's advantage over the Samsung. It's UltraSharp branding. There are time when you're watching blue ray in a brilliantly display of colors, that you'd notice a small dark shade with a wording on it that seems ... less ... crisp. Slightly blurry on the end of the text and so ... but using the UltraSharp, you'd see the text in it's magnificent self. Awesome crisp and sharpness. Blurry gone! This shows you how capable this display is able to show you the minute details of everything! Clear and Crispy!

Gotta love them premium items.

Well, all LCD comes with a menu for you to configure it's settings.
This LCD is equipped with a touch sensor instead of physical buttons.

Look at the bottom right corner of the LCD on the pic.
You can see lighted buttons on the corner there. They are all touch sensor-ed.
Once you move you hands away, the blue led light will dim out, and you'll get a pure dark look.

Here's another interesting feature of the touch sensor buttons. You don't really have to touch it just to find it.
All you need to do is move/wave your fingers near the corner of the screen and the buttons will light up it self.
You don't even need to touch it. Sexy!

As you can see on the picture, a common feature found in quite some LCD, is a feature to turn your menu transparent. But don't expect to find this on every cheap low end LCD nowadays thou. Used to be quite some long time back. Hmm ...

Another lil' sexy thing about those lighted sensor buttons. Once you turn on the LCD. The display doesn't come to life instantly (Well, never saw any LCD come to life instantly anyway, it's a technical limitation I guess). It'll take a few seconds. Maybe 3 - 4 seconds. During this period, the led light buttons will light up one by one as if moving from the buttom corner to the top and back down again. Something similar like turning on the volume then back down.

All in all, this LCD is nice. Pay for a premium, and get a premium.You get a nice display with sharp images combined with brilliant colors. And you get some sexiness from a gadget point of view =)

Wonder if anyone has the 27" model for me to try out instead .... hehehe ...
