Yeah yeah yeah zzzzz. Not necessarily the case for everyone. Most people are quite happy with 1080p on huge tv's so it all depends on your usage. If you require a higher res, please yourself and pay another £600.
5" smartphones are coming out with 1080p displays now, just crazy.
the letters at the end
Do you have a link to that, sounds like a bargain.
however each to their own in terms of taste and a great price.
Im running a ProLite 27" at 1080p and find it more than enough for my needs. Would of loved the extra real estate in terms of pixels, but those cheap Korean imports didnt quite do it for me and i would of always looked at it thinking should of gone quality 'Apple'. Like i say though each to their own, as long as you are happy with what youve got whos to tell you any different.

Link Please..
Going by the reviews, it doesn't. So I'm gonna take the plunge and get this beast
You can get a 2560x1440 monitor from Korea for £224 including customs fees... So I dunno where you come up with £209.99 + £600
I agree with the other guy...
5" phones with 1080p
10" tablets with 2560x1600.
And the mainstream for desktop monitors is still 1080p...

Brand? Link?
Add taxes and customs, will be over 200, but not by much I think.
the £300 version is the one with better connections I think
LINK????
I find that hard to believe. I paid £260 for mine from Overclockers. It was a DGM monitor, so unknown brand but it's quality. The notion of paying £800 for a 2560x1440 res monitor is totally absurd.
Have some heat!
Lol my super duper iPad2 only lasted 7 months thanks to a failed LG IPS display. With the Korean monitors there’s just too much risk involved and some of the cheaper listings advertise the fact you’re paying for a low grade product (even though it’s cheap for what it is) I would rather pay the extra £70 and buy a DGM with a warrantee and some comeback if I really wanted a WQHD monitor.
£800 was in reply to the earlyer comment
I bought a yamakasi 2560x1440 27" monitor and so did a guy at work. Great quality, if I remember rightly I got charged £13 customs. It's obviously a risk getting it imported but it worked out well for me.
As people have pointed out, you can get one of the Korean IPS monitors from eBay for around £215 - £220 including import fees, etc. Once you see the image quality, you'll never go back to TN. Just make sure you don't buy a glass tempered one as it'll probably be in bits once it arrives.
For piece of mind and an actual warranty, spend the extra and get the 27" DGM as previously mentioned in the thread.

Agreed. 1080p is fine for 21" and maybe 23", but anything larger and it just looks blocky. 2560x1440 is a lot more useful.
I just wished 2560x1600 was available for less than 4 digits...
HDMI splitter for £13 from Amazon can fix that
Ahhh crap. But that must affect signal quality...right?
