Have I bought this monitor because it is an IPS panel and is attractively priced (199.-). And I also really liked the design. With Amazon ordered the next morning in front of the door. Erected unpacked and in 5 minutes and connected. Typical Samsung halt. Unfortunately, I realized that the monitor also has this right 5mm gray stripes, as was to be read already. As the initial euphoria was in the basement. Even worse, I found the darkening aside. And when I get a ca 10x10cm brownish discoloration found on the lower left side of the display, the flying part of my desk. This you'll immediately notice if you call a white site. So wrapped up again and down to the post office. I then decided to use a TN panel and bought the Samsung S27C350H here on Amazon for 157.- Euro. If that's not a cut price for a 27-inch monitor, then I do not know it well. Compared with the IPS panel me the picture of the TN panel occurs much better. And a gray strips has the new no.
