Yes! XPS2 with samsung - Page 2

post #21 of 67
Oh no, I predict and landslide of people returning their current XPS2 systems and ordering a new one in hopes of getting a Samsung display.

Any chance of getting a picture of the screen with a white, green, or medium blue bakcground?

My replaced Samsung reads as Seiko-Epson SEC5557 in PowerStrip 3.59 (Read data from stored EDID. Hadn't checked it since I got the replacement, because I already new what it was from the LCD packaging.

Just finished with 3DMark05, got 4921 straight out of the box with plug in.

Is it better to ask for new system or just screen replacement?
New system IMO. Seems more and more are shipping with the Samsung display and its better to have a new system than one a tech opened up and messed with.

Wow and you still don't have it? You're pretty patient, I'd have been raising hell with Dell by now. My second XPS 2 is already about to ship out and you still haven't gotten your first!

Well I finally got my XPS 2 today (after a very long wait - Ordered on Feb 24th). Out of the box, it is amazing! I got 4900+ on 3dmark 05, and the sceen is great! I checked it for dead pixels, and couldn't even find one. The colors are wonderful, but now I think I know why...I ran powerstrip as well, and I have the Samsung monitor (SEC5557). I couldn't be happier, and even though it was a long, frustrating wait, I'm glad I got it when I did (with the Samsung screen). I'm a very happy camper

wow, I guess Dell saw all these threads about LCDs... or ran out of LG screens

Yeah hopefully they phase out the LG's and just stick to one brand with strict QC. That will be enough to salvage their bad screen rep.

Is it true that the Samsung's just don't have as good color quality / brightness as the LG's?
post #38 of 67
So, if you have a 320-4259, it means you have a Samsung?

I just looked at my order, and that is what mine says online, and my XPS arrived today, but I can not get it until tomorrow....I am SO excited!

Some have said yes, some no. My Samsung has about 1 level of brightness over the LG I had. I don't really know about the colors, the sparkles on the LG kind of overtook any other evaluation. Colors are fine on the Samsung, more vivid than my Sony.

Well, my replacement will soon be on its way, that means I should get a samsung. I had trouble with light leakage on my LG. I also have the video card noises on this one...maybe the next won't.
