Comparison with the screen before is not difficult ... it was time for me to change! So I saw. The screen is my working tool, I'm behind all day. Not having the means to afford a pro screen for graphic designer, I found this screen a good compromise between quality and price. Comfort of the workspace (I spend 20-27 inch ... too good!), Great comfort for my little delicate eyes (finished itchy eyes and crying at the end of the day). With the parameter setting color calibration of my Mac, I can have colors close enough to reality, so fewer surprises in print. As for other options related to video quality, I do not serve me, so I can not comment.
