Monitors Dell launches LCD model U2410 with 24 inch IPS panel

See LCD and TFT Monitor News

It's what many people have been asking for, a new 24" model from Dell, but this time, using an IPS panel! Dell have seemingly done away with their Samsung S-PVA panels in this size, and after the success of the 22" e-IPS based 2209WA, they now have the U2410 in their range.

The monitor is being promoted with a 12-bit internal LUT and a palette of 1 billion colours. There's a 100% sRGB colour gamut, 1920 x 1200 resolution, 80,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio (1000:1 static), 6ms G2G response time, 400 cd/m2 brightness and 178/178 viewing angles. There are VGA, DVI-D (HDCP), component, composite, HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces available.

The U2410 is set to retail for 69,000 yen in Japan (about $750 USD). No word on US or UK release or prices just yet.

edit: not sure what backlight it has, regular or LED etc... what is that "LUT" thing mentioned?

^They've as well launched the E2010, E2210, E2310 - the newer models for the year 2010, all of them which're TN panels.

Seems like all LCDs share the same looks as that of the E2209WA including the 24inch you've listed!

Oh and an x-bit article throws up LUT as:

Each LCD monitor has a so-called Lookup Table (LUT) which stores correspondences between the input signal and the signal that must be sent to the matrix to achieve the necessary color. The matrix’s own characteristic is S-shaped and it must be converted into an exponential gamma curve. It is the precision of values in the LUT and the accuracy of calculations performed over them (the monitor must not only convert one signal into another, but to take into account such settings as contrast, color temperature, etc) that determines the quality of color reproduction, i.e. the accurate shape of gamma curves, the difference of color temperatures between different levels of gray, the lack of banding in smooth color gradients, etc.

In a majority of monitors the LUT is written into memory at the factory and cannot be changed by the user. You can’t do anything about the monitor when its parameters begin to degenerate with time or if it turns out that the factory LUT doesn’t provide the necessary precision at the settings you want to use.

That went above my head alright!

ah thanks for the LUT info - yup was OHT (edit: over head transmission) for me too now all we need to know is what backlight this expensive IPS one has... regular or LED. im thinking its regular else they would have prominently bragged about it already...

Only in Japan for now

Dell Japan has listed a rather interesting new display based on IPS panel that comes with HDMI and DisplayPort inputs, the UltraSharp U2410.

This LCD is capable of covering 96 percent of Adobe's RGB color space and 100% of the sRGB color space. It has a 1,920 x 1,200 resolution, 6ms response time, an 80,000:1 contrast ratio, 400 cd/m2 of brightness, all the inputs that you can think of, like HDMI, DisplayPort, two DVIs, D-Sub, Component RCA input, a 4-port USB hub and a card reader.

The new IPS panel based display is unfortunately only available in Japan and can be found with a price tag set at ¥72,450 or roughly US $760.

Same panel as the HP L2475, which means it is a wide gamut monitor, showing 102% of the RGB colour space. You need colour managed apps like Photoshop to handle this properly, otherwise everything will appear too saturated. everyone is still waiting for a normal gamut 24" E-IPS like the 2209WA
