 Excellent LCD Monitor (3 Year Warranty, 12ms, 4 USB) Review created: 03/26/06(updated 03/27/06) 29 of 33 people found this review helpful.
This is a great LCD monitor with 12ms response time, 600:1 contrast ratio, and now usually includes a 3 year warranty from Dell. It has DVI, VGA, and S-Video inputs. It also has 4 USB 2.0 ports (2 on the side and 2 behind the LCD). The screen can adjust up or down and tilt either forward or backwards. It also and be switched to vertical or horizontal views. I have been using this monitor for about a year now and haven't had any backlight problems, dead pixels, or anything.

The 2005FPW is a much nicer looking model than its newer updated 2007FPW model. Why did Dell go and change the design? The 2005FPW monitor was a great looking model that needed no updating at the time in my opinion. I now own 2 Dell 2005FPW Monitors and I purchased a 2405FPW for my Mother and all of them perform flawlessly. I did have similar problems with this purchase and another Dell Monitor that I had purchased through Ebay. When the seller's advertise these monitors, they are giving inaccurate descriptions when it comes to the warranty. The seller are selling these monitors with a transferable warranty through Dell. (This is false information!) Dell will not transfer the warranty of a standalone monitor due to the fact that there is no Service Tag or Express Service Code that come with a Dell monitor. Also Dell's online (Warranty Transfer Form) will not work either for the same reasons that I previously stated. (Dell's Online Warranty Transfer Form) only works for any item that came with a Service Tag & Express Service Code # ..... items such as a Dell Computer Tower, A Dell Laptop, or even a Complete Dell Computer System. However....Dell will recognize the Ebay buyer's purchased standalone monitor warranty under the following conditions only. I called Dell to verify this information! The Ebay Buyer must be able to provide the following information to Dell. 1 Original Dell Shippingaddress, Ph Number & Billing Address: 2 Original Dell Contact name: 3 Original Dell Customer account number: 4 Original Dell Order Number: 5 You also need to know was the item originally purchased from Dell Home & Home Office Division or was it purchased through Dells Small Business Division? This will direct you to the correct phone number to call if you need to call. ( I highly recommend to anyone who has purchased a Dell Monitor or complete Dell system to call Dell and verify that the warranty information is accurate on your purchases that were made through Ebay.) If you have all of the original Owner's information that I have previously stated, Dell will assist you. Many of Dell's support people are of foreign decent so be patient with them. They maybe hard to understand. I have purchased 2 Dell monitors through Ebay and I am very happy with the performance and warranty's that were provided. I gave this monitor a great score due to the variable resolution and crisp panoramic view that it provides. When I look and a standard monitor now, everything looks crunched together. There is allot less scrolling with the mouse to view an image on the Dell 2005fpw screen. I truly enjoy the the look and the new computer feel that this simple upgrade provided. The Multiple connection types that are provided and the extra USB ports are a huge plus. I can hook this monitor to several different applications. Great versatility. The only down fall with the new wide screen monitors is the screens can be damaged very easily. Be careful to clean the screen with recommended cleaners only. Treat this monitor with care and you will be as happy as I am with it. Signed, (Another Satisfied Customer)
