Great Gaming Monitor by Ledbetter on newegg.com Jul 8, 2012
I upgrading from a Dell SE198WFP 19" TN 5ms monitor so I was a little apprehensive about the 8ms response time. Rest assured THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE! I play Crysis 2, Far Cry 2, Civ 5, Skyrim, Deus EX HR and then some, and I have not seen any evidence ...
 
Very pleased with my U2412M by jeffinfo on cnet.com May 13, 2012
The U2412M replaces my 10 year old Dell 2405FPW monitor, and it looks to me to be just as good. I hesitated to buy the U2412M because I read some reviews complaining of viewing angle and color. I see no problem with viewing angle for my uses. Sure, if ...

Worth Every Penny by Henri on amazon.com Dec 4, 2011
I've had this monitor for a about a week now. I purchased it for 300 dollars which is cheaper than on most sites. Originally, I bought it to help me with digital art and I have to say it does that and much more. The colors are fantastic, the size is very ...
 
Very Vibrant display by N/A on newegg.com Jun 22, 2012
The color is very vibrant and perfect if you sit 3-4 feet away from your monitor like I do. I wanted a 30, but after playing battlefield 3 on the 24 I'm glad I went with this size, it's sensory overload and now that I have such a wider viewing angle I've ...

Coating creates sparkling look - not good for office by Philly_writer_75 on cnet.com Feb 23, 2012
Given the quality the monitor seems very pricy. I use LG 22 inch monitors at work and for office applications that seems a much better and cheaper choice then the Dell monitor. I used to buy Dell Ultrasharp monitors in the past and was really happy, but ...
 
Dirty monitor look. The new hotness? by Jonathan Burgess "Tamer" on amazon.com Dec 14, 2011
Pros: - Viewing angle: Much better than a TN monitor: This is very important for monitors that are 24+ inches as all TNs look significantly darker at the top even when sitting right in front of them. This is very noticeable in dark areas of movies and ...

Flickering backlight by Juzer on newegg.com Jun 30, 2012

As you probably can tell I am very pleased with this monitor, I would highly recommend putting up the extra cash and get this over the cheaper U2312HM...Look, cnet can complain about how the IPS panel isn't as good as the 2410's, but let's face it, the price of this monitor is very good, and you can't expect to have the best IPS panel in a sub $400 monitor...The U2412M replaces my 10 year old Dell 2405FPW monitor, and it looks to me to be just as good...
