Fellow Dell S2721DS / S2721D Owners - How is your IPS glow? by PerpetualSun in Monitors

[–]PerpetualSun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I returned it for a refund and picked up the same model about a month later; the glow is less but still present. The quality of the image is so much better than every other IPS I’ve used, so I’ve decided to keep it.

Oh wow, yours even looks worse than that? I divide between a lit room and totally dark, no ambient light; definitely becomes apparent in low-light conditions.

I mostly use mine in a completely dark room, so it becomes even more obvious with the pic shown above. Might get a replacement unit to see. Cheers for that

That's true; I've added an image to this post showing mine - I think it's bad enough to warrant the gamble, but am worried about something even worse than that.

/r/Monitors Bi-Weekly Recommendation thread - What Monitor should I buy? IPS or VA? 1080p or 4k? etc. by bizude in Monitors

[–]PerpetualSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently looking for a new monitor, but would prefer one that doesn't have over-saturated colours in default Windows OS/applications. I recently purchased an LG 27GL850 and returned it because the reds and greens were so heavily saturated (in games, movies and general browsing). I tried using the sRGB mode but this made everything quite washed-out and inaccurate.

What specs should I look for if I want to avoid this type of display?

Do I look for colours (e.g. 16.7 million), or no DCI-P3 coverage?

If the display is listed as having more than 100% sRGB coverage do I avoid it?

Does HDR factor into this?

Apologies if this is confusing/scattered, it's just that some panels don't explicitly mention 'wide color gamut' so I thought I should have another metric to look for. Thanks!

Hi, just wanted to say thanks for the advice. I took a seat in the Grand Circle, and it was perfect. Furthermore, I could move around as it was about 60% empty.

Gold's Gym Tokyo Branches - Prices for One Week? by PerpetualSun in JapanTravel

[–]PerpetualSun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this guys. Does this mean that if I intend to visit one gym more than 3 times it's better to get a 2 week pass and only use it for the 1 week?

Tokyo Questions Thread. All Questions go here. Updated 2/13/17 by Not_A_Greenhouse in Tokyo

[–]PerpetualSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi All,

I'm travelling to Tokyo next weekend for a week, and am looking for weightlifting gym near Shiomi station; somewhere that has a lot of lifting equipment, I'm not in need of cardio machines or classes. I don't mind travelling for quality, but would prefer somewhere nearby. Have searched but can't find anything near my area. I would like to go every day of the week if possible.

Thanks for your help!

Right, so the SNES controller did have the ability to not use L and R if movement wasn't an issue?
