Mattgfx,

None of us are privy as to if/when/what a monitor revision will be prior to it being released.

A01.

Do you know what rev is currently out as of today?

Mattgfx, how sure are you that the future REV A02 will fix the cross hatching issues? will it fix the image retention issues that all REV A01 manufactured in april 2013 suffered as well? the cross hatching is the second big problem as it makes a solid white background look like a canvas paper with all the patterns.

It probably wont. That panel is completely different and uses GB-LED(U2713H)

This is quoted from someone fairly high up at Dell.

"According to our Quality Engineering team the solution to this issue has been completely rolled out. No further revisions are planned at this time.

“Displays from the repair center should have revision A02 which would be the latest. Displays from the factory may have revision A00 because they changed all the part numbers due to implementation of ES 6.0. These will have the new SLC1 panels with all the fixes.”

Dells current panel is the LG.Display LM270WQ1-SLB2 AH-IPS and the new one will be the LG.Display LM270WQ1-SLC1 AH-IPS. I looked up the current panel serial number and compared the two. The change makes sense going in chronological order. Dell hasn't changed their panel in the past Rev model so this seems like a big step.

hopefully it wont have the overdrive issues like the u2713h

What about buzzing noise, is that solved too?

When will this new revision be available?

If they really change change panel, maybe there is still chance that they will solve problems with 2713H and all other models from that class...

Revision A00 and A01 are fundamentally flawed products. I won't be keeping this monitor without the guarantee of an SLC1 replacement within a month or two. Absolutely unacceptable QA, with the obvious exception of what reviewers of the U2713HM have apparently received.

There's image retention on gray background as well.
