Had a query in with Philips for the type of backlight my current monitor uses - in case I need to use a correction file with the colorimeter - and while they answered the wrong question, I now know my current monitor is a TN panel rather than my misremembered VA. In other words: any IPS panel should be a reasonable upgrade in terms of colours and contrast.
Turns out my monitor isn't nearly as bad as I thought, now I've got a working colorimeter, so maybe I can go for the cheapest option of all and just keep using it!
If you do change your mind, I would have suggested trying NRG-IT as they do (did???) refurbished Dell monitors but their site and FB pages seem to have gone... Hope they haven't gone bust...
Eeeek! I was on their site the other week, looking at stuff I couldn't afford yet. Their place is 5 mins from where I work on site a few days a week. I'll do a fly by and see what's going on there. It'd be a damn shame if the've gone
It really would. When I bought my U2713HM from them a few years ago their customer service was excellent - and the prices were good too
Unless they're selling a £450 Alienware 240hz monitor for £250 Inc lol. I've had great deals from Dell but usually on their gaming end.
