Hi everyone,
My German is not yet so good so I am posting here in the English section. I had the opportunity yesterday to test the two gaming monitors from Eizo, side by side. I do not have any professional colorimetric equipment so this is just what I could observe with my eyes. So, here goes:
Color:
- Both monitors tested in User1 default color mode, with EcoView off.
- The FS2333 has better colors, period. More vibrant, more alive. Also it seems to me, more brightness.
- FS2434 has more blue (which for me is annoying), and temperature-wise comes similar to my LG IPS235P. Also, compared to FS2333 the image seems harsher to the eyes.
Viewing angles:
- Again, FS2333 is better. The IPS panel of the newer model seems just worse.
Flicker:
- Tested with my Lumia 800 camera: indeed FS2434 "flicker-free" technology kind of works (you still see some shimmer on the camera but not the horizontal lines moving upwards)
- FS2333 shows no flicker at brightness over 70-80, and it has never been a problem for me anyway. I prefer better colors. Some people are bothered by PWM dimming though.
Build quality:
- The FS2333 seems more solid, based on the fact that on the FS2434 the plastic on the back tends to bend more easily.
- Both monitors had no bad pixels or scratches or any artifacts on the screen area.
- They share the same remote (you can use the remote of one with the other) and the same pivot stand with 340 degrees.
- Front bezel of the EV2434 is kind of ugly (subjective impression)
Unfortunately no more testing is possible as I have returned the Eizo FS2434. In case you think I forgot something, feel free to ask.
PS
I am sorry I'm new here and it seems I've posted in the wrong section (should be Reviews not Help). A mod please move this post over there. Sorry!
