That makes me the "crystal effect" called glint of 27 inch IPS panels mad, I thought, this monitor would offer a good alternative. The bad review here arises partly from the negative reviews for the 24 inch version of this monitor. The feared Backlight Bleeding and strangely bright black, however, to complain even with the 27 inch version of this monitor. In addition, you can adjust gamma when only numbered modes and not specify that a value is to be used by about 2.2. Otherwise, the image on the monitor is wonderful. Curiously, also has black letters on white surface then a high contrast. For The Office of the Monitor is therefore suitable in any case. But I have 700 grasped a little too high in the described shortcomings. The mechanics of the monitor is perfectly acceptable. There is also a 27-inch monitor not self-evident that it can be operated in portrait mode. Especially when you have to submit a long essay times, this is not a negligible advantage. Conclusion: with a homogenous and dark black, I would have kept the unit in any case.
