Problems wish Samsung 700NF

[NYer]

I followed CNET's review for my 700NF. I found it has some
geometry tilt which is not eliminable. The focus of right
half screen is not so sharp as left screen. The convergence
at right boundary is also bad. Has anyone met similiar problems
with this monitor? I recommend Nokia Monitor Test to evaluate
your monitors.

RMA it.

I don't know whether those problems are common with 700NF.
So change an new monitor may not work.

That doesn't sound right. The only thing bad about my Samsung 900NF (19" version of 700nf) is a slightly bow at the top of the screen. It's very little and isn't very noticeable. There is geometry errors of some kind on basically all flat-screen AG monitors just some have it worth than others. You said the convergence and focus controls don't fix your problems? Well then in that case I'd RMA it.

Hmm yes that is weird. Definately return it.

The problems I mentioned are not very severe at all.At least that monitor is much
better than my previous 755DF. I know there is no ideal CRT in this planet but I
wouldn't like to accept a product which quality is below average. So if anyone who
owns 700NF or 900NF could post his results in Nokia Monitor Test, I will be highly
appreciated. Other opinions and comments are also welcome.

Well I did the Nokia Monitor test. I really wasn't sure what I was suppose to see on all of them. The geometry actually looked better than I thought at the top where it bows. Things like covergence, focus are you just suppose to see that all fo the designs/colors are the same? Well they were. All the other tests looked ok.

Let's take convergence as example. If everthing is good, there should be no breaks in all
vertical and horizontal lines. But my monitor has breaks ---about 0.5 mm-- at right boundary,
while other part of screen is good. For focus, the vertical lines on the right half screen
is a little thicker than left half screen after I set it to the best condition.
