and then told nothing useful once I get through). Bad Support. The Good. A couple of times I was promised they'd call me back to let me know where my replacement monitor was but they never called.In summary, don't buy a Sony. Controls are awkward. On average malfunctions after 3 months. (Really really bad). Picture & ColourThe Bad.
When I finally get my replacement monitor back from Sony, I'm planning on selling it on eBay and getting something new (obviously not from Sony). Now it's late January and I still haven't heard anything from Sony.I've tried calling, e-mailing, and writing Sony, but have not received a phone call or mailing back. Cheap cable connection to video card. I received some e-mail response but it only suggested that I phone the support number (doing so I was put on hold for 30min. I was planing on buying a Sony portable MP3 player and a Sony Clie, but not anymore. Now they've lost a very loyal customer only because their support is so poor.Good luck to you if you buy a Sony and you need support. After my G410R malfunctioned for the third time Sony decided to replace the unit with a new one.
HeavyMostly my complaints originate from when I first started dealing with Sony Canada Customer Support (or lack there of it). They promised me I'd have a new unit by the end of December or early January. Nothing Sony. Some of the Sony products I own include: an expensive Sony DSC, a Sony Home Entertainment System, a Sony Walkman, a Sony Discman, a Sony portable radio, a 2nd Sony Monitor, and a Sony speaker system. I personally used to love Sony products. I would suggest just steering clear of it and buy a monitor from a reputable manufacturer such as ViewSonic, Samsung, or NEC.
There are adjustments that can be made but I have not been able to eliminate it. One manufactured in Dec 2001 is worse than the on in Manufactured in march 2002Monitor is not perfectly flat. The first one purchased was manufactured in Dec 2001. Got headaches with Viewsonic G810.Monitor is deep. My observations are as follows:Picture quality is very good, excellent color and brightness.
My viewsonic G810 was worse though. I bought one and about a month later I purchased another one to go along with my dual card. Big plus.Good refresh rates even when set to higher resolutions.You can work for hours and your eyes do not get tired because it is flat. Same problem when using a different computer and graphic card.Monitors chirps when in power save mode.
The shadow is less visable on this one. Make sure you have room to accomodate.Prefer have two 19" rather one 21". Noticed that black text bleeds into the white, meaning that you can see a slight red shadow around the black text. It does bend inward a little.
No big dealLight reflection off the monitor is almost no existant. Turning on a light near it does not affect ability to see the screen images. The second one purchased was manufactured in March 2002. More screen real estate and with dual card you can view two documents without flipping through max an min of windows.
