    People always care about the spec that many LCD manufacturers claim on their website, but many of them are not consistent with the truth as suggested by the calibration applications.

    For example, Samsung have produced least three variation of 18.4 1080p displays.

    LTN184HT01-90% Color Gamut/ 800:1 Contrast Ratio/ Maximum Brightness 200:1

    ---> Beware the limit quantities of the matte version available in the market.

    LTN184HT02 (RGB LED)-112% Color Gamut/ 1000:1 Contrast Ratio/Maximum Brightness: 250:1

    ---->It's impossible to buy unused version of the LTN184HT02

    LTN184HT03-72% Color Gamut/600:1 Contrast Ratio/ Maximum Brightness: 161:1

    -----> The visual quality is rather dim in comparison to LTN184HT01 and LTN184HT02


    Any comment is appreciated and welcomed

    this is good to know.

    i bet the panels are less expensive and better than some desktop monitors too, eh.

    when you get your 2 dreamcolor displays let me know the model #s on those ;)

    It's hard to find one with anti-glare film set, especially in the UK.

    So the DV8t has the worst 18.4" 1920x1080 screen? :( ?

    Worse than the Aspire 8942G for which apparently the screen is not good :(
