Hi, I decided to try the new LED VLED221WM monitor, first impressions
against a 226bw are:
- Very bright for its 250 cmd/m2 spec, had to use 5% brightness to obtain an approximate brightness to the 226 (set to 40/100)
- Very saturated colours
- No banding in greys or colours

@Fleat pics
Many thanks for the pics, initial inspection of the vista desktops doesnt look too bad, but the pure colour comparison does show how bad the samsung is....... disappointing.
I'm also hoping its a defection model., hope you can get an exchange.
Yes please Fleat!
One of the best things about the 226BW S panel was its "out of the box" calibration
will be disappointing to know I need to buy a calibrator to enjoy the HC aspects
of this screen
Hi Kaushama, please post some more feedback, someone else said "He said it's blurry and not sharp so he's going to return it and stick with his 226BW", whos knows it could have been set at the wrong resolution.
Thanks

Hi XeeN, yes this was reported in BF2 for example, I plane flying on/through a blue sky (also happens on some 226BW panels, very annoying)
Thanks forr your help
Hi, please can someone try BF2/BF2142 or something similar with fast moving objects over sky for example, I just want to check the comments from the Polish site about RTA overshoot causing bright shadow/halos
Many thanks.
