uh it's not 100%, there are standards for dead pixels and LCD manufacturers allow them as long as there's not too many in certain areas of the screen. you can't RMA that, it's policy. of course you can just return it, paying that extra restocking fee tho

Sorry for the misleading post. I'm in the same boat as you. Really thinking about getting one of these but not so sure seeing all the issue others have had.

Catleap Q270 SE arrived this morning (Winnipeg, Canada) via DHL. This was the 319.90 version without perfect pixel. No dead/stuck pixels. Left vs right side illumination was completely even. No discernable backlight bleeding. Impressive screen, to say the least.

Used the supplied DVI cable and power brick, with my own power cable connecting the brick to power outlet. The shipping box did not arrive in bubble-wrap as it apparently has for some. That added a little bit of anxiety. Unboxed it, hooked up DVI and power cables, crossed my fingers, drum roll... 2560 x 1440 of loveliness appeared. Displayed at the correct resolution right away (graphics card is a GTX 460).

Ordered from green-sum on May 14, arrived in Winnipeg 7 days later. Only extra charge was $32 (Cdn taxes) paid to DHL delivery person. Final cost (in USD) was 319.90 + 32 = $352.

Thank-you to everyone who contributed to this thread, especially club founder, Scribby.

I already ordered a dell u3011 before (had to sell because or money trouble), either way the monitor came perfect with no problems, such an amazing screen, I run a dell monitor thread on ocn and not one person has complained about bleeding backlight or dead or stuck pixels

Thread Starter 

My opinion is not to go looking for dead pixels to be honest.  The chances of you noticing one without running the screen tests are pretty slim.  I have four of these - three are perfect - one has one dead pixel that I found today because I was an idiot and said "what the heck - let's see if this one is perfect too."  I would have NEVER noticed that darn pixel -- EVER (wait is darn a curse word here on OCN?).  Now I know it is there.  Luckily it's location makes me have to go hunting for it to see it in everyday use.


And to the point about perfect Dells, Apples, etc - they aren't either.  Even A+ panels can have a dead or stuck pixel - they just weren't caught at the factory.  Even then, like was stated above this is a return and replace issue - not an RMA defective panel issue unless it is over the company's pixel policy.

That's a good point about don't go hunting for them. I just remembered while reading the post that my current monitor at home has one that I completely forgot about until now. I just hope that next year when I get a new monitor I don't notice one in a bad spot 6 months later.tongue.gif

Used the supplied DVI cable and power brick, with my own power cable connecting the brick to power outlet. The shipping box did not arrive in bubble-wrap as it apparently has for some. That added a little bit of anxiety. Unboxed it, hooked up DVI and power cables, crossed my fingers, drum roll... 2560 x 1440 of loveliness appeared. Displayed at the correct resolution right away (graphics card is a GTX 460).
Ordered from green-sum on May 14, arrived in Winnipeg 7 days later. Only extra charge was $32 (Cdn taxes) paid to DHL delivery person. Final cost (in USD) was 319.90 + 32 = $352.

Thank-you to everyone who contributed to this thread, especially club founder, Scribby.

Glad to hear everything went well. I wonder if USA residents are charged an extra fee. I will be ordering my catleap after I can get my hands on a gtx 680 ftw
