My monitor came with no dead pixels firstly, and the BLB is pretty minor (a smudge on all four corners). I am horrible with self calibration, and to be honest I believe that I don't have this monitor set up to its potential.
When I view blue or purple images, the left side of the screen has a noticeably brighter line. Now this is only present in blue or purples images, however it's really apparent on http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/viewing_angle.php with the purple screen. Now this is my first *VA panel, but I thought that the viewing angles weren't like this? When I view it straight on, the left and ride side are a definitive light purple color, but this is especially noticeable on the left side again.
I am aware that people are reporting similar problems; I've read most of the big Dell 2408 thread. I'm just curious as to see how mine stands- is it considered "good" of the bunch, or am I justified in exchanging it. As it stands this kind of bugs me, but I love every other feature of this monitor.
Pictures: If you need better ones, let me know how to take them. I'm inexperienced at this, so if clearer pictures are needed you'll have to teach me
