Product Uses: web surfing, photo editing

Review:This monitor is simply stunning; clearly the best flat panel I've ever owned. Colors are super vibrant and text is razor sharp. My usage is normal web surfing and occasional photo editing. Editing is such a pleasure for me now with this monitor. And of course my 54 year old eyes appreciate the superb quality of this flat panel.

When I ordered it about a few months ago I didn't know at the time that there seems to be two versions of this panel. I think one is called a "TN" panel which some say is a quite good panel, and the other one is a superior quality S-IPS panel which luckily is the one that I recieved. That is easily verified with the last letter in the serial number being an "L".

I'm not too good with technical jargon as many folks here are, so about all I can add to the great reviews here is that I am so pleased with this monitor. I'll agree with all the other good reviews for it. I highly recommend this panel and if you are thinking about ordering one then I'd order it soon while these superior S-IPS panels are still available.

Review:I was looking to upgrade from an older 19" monitor. This monitor has the S-IPS panel which offers great display quality and is well worth the price for use in the office. This is one of the few 4:3 ratio monitors still on the market. If you are looking for a high qualiy non-widescreen monitor at a fair price the 2007FP is the one to get.

Review:I've had one of these monitors for about since Christmas 2006, and recently thought I'd upgrade to something "bigger newer better" so I tried a couple of the new 24 HD widescreens, including the new LED.

There is no upgrade for this outstanding 20" Dell without spending a LOT of money. I ended up sending back the snazzy new 24 LED monitor and ordering another one of these 2007FP's, to be sure and have a spare.

This monitor is that good. Sharp. Bright. Vibrant deep colors. If like me you also prefer the taller screen height of the older 4:3 aspect ratio, you can't beat this monitor.

If I had some more money lying around I'd buy another one of these while they're still available new. The list price is $379 and you get what you pay for.

Review:After many years using 2 monitors of different brand / size, I'm now trully in "dual-screen mode". After weeks of reading reviews, searching the net high & low for an affordable quality monitor, I set my choice on these UltraSharp 200FP (A05 revision and L serie serial number... thanks to the great advises I got from previous buyers). They are solid, really well designed, easy to set-up & they deliver! They look so fancy on my desktop (lollllll). They look as good as Apple's minus the tag price. Image is xtra clean, precise, sharp. I went for this one mainly because of the standard 4:3 ratio because new widescreen aren't for me. I prefer 2 standard than one widescreen (and 2 widescreens cannot take place on my desk). They are the most expensive Dell you'll find under 24" bit the S-IPS technology worth the xtra cash you'll throw. MONEY WELL SPENT! As for customer service, well... it's hard to deal with a salesrep in India that barely couldn't found the model I was asking for, even after I told him how to reach it (...). I was just about to crack when he got it. You'd better read many reviews and all informations because they can only answer 75% of asked questions. At the end, I got what I want and it's the most important.

ProsPerfect size unless your a Gamer or???
Wonderful overal image,color,clearity,etc.
Simple,Clean, and no nonsense design.
Upscaled Base with the bells and whistles.
Totally happy with this purchase. Had a 1908FP that has been very good and trouble free, but wanted to upscale and update.
ConsCan't find anything at this point but if I do, I have a 5year Premium Panel Warranty to protect my investment.....Thank you Dell.

Review:*** One important item.
This monitor was just purchased 4/22/09 and it came with the A05 revision and the "L" series serial number, so it has the S-IPS Panel. If that is important, you should order immediately while they are shipping this high quality Panel.
I feel really lucky as I am aware of this issue but highly doubted I would receive it.

ProsAwesome monitor- i just cannot describe how pleased i am with my purchase.I started with 2001FTP and then swithched to this one as it came out.I compared it to a lot of other monitors - it is just out of comparison - then i bought another one for me ,2 for my brother ,another for my cousin and so on .Your eyes do not tire when viewing webpages ,gaming or whatsoever.After i moved my office i got one of dell NEW 22 widescreens-i can barely sit half an hour in front of it.So you better grab one while on sale or still in production-you wont regret.
ConsNONE

Review:Perfest for side by side use,movies or gaming IMHO

ProsColor reproduction and clarity. Does not fatigue the eyes with long viewing periods. Best viewing angles available with this S-IPS panel.
ConsNone

Review:For those who think its pricey, do your homework. This is an S-IPS panel with true 8 bit color reproduction, not a cheap TN panel like most monitors. Very reasonable price for the quality. I own 2 of these. Get one before TN panels take over the market.

ProsGreat 4:3, but the GRAPHIC DRIVER is messed up terribly and won't allow me to rotate the Operating System! I hooked up the monitor (to a Dell CPU) and loaded the CD that came with the monitor and in the User Guide on the CD it said to go to "support.dell.com" and download the latest driver for this monitor to be able to use the rotate feature. I did this and now the "latest" driver is totally screwed up and won;t allow me to rotate the OS no matter how many ways I tried. In the Intel Graphics Properties box, there's a section for "Display Settings" and a box for "Rotation" to enable rotation and I have it set to enable rotation but it is set at 0 degrees with a check mark and offers other degrees but won't allow me to change to 90 degrees or any other degree. Also, if I right click my desktop, in the Graphic Options if I choose "rotation" it only offer Normal and 180 degrees as option to rotate. There's NO option anywhere to rotate 90 degrees which is needed to use this monitor in portrait mode!
Can anyone please help or is anyone having this same problem? Thanks!
ConsUNABLE to ROTATE OPERATING SYSTEM to 90 Degrees to use Portriat Mode! Will NOT allow me to rotate OS by any method. Intel Graphics Driver won't work properly.

Review:Dell needs to address this DRIVER issue immediately.
