I think many people remember big banner with following message: U3011 and U2711 premium panels with 5 years of warranty....
In real life we have less years of warranty but not for all... For example my friend bought U2711 (Service Tag: BJ10Y5P1) and has 5years of warranty without any additional payment for extra warranty. When I bought one U2711 (Service Tag: BX1P9S1) I saw my warranty and it also be 5 years. I bought from Dell directly. But now when I got this on my monitor i.piccy.info/.../006r.jpg
It began in last summer as little blemish in right upper corner and increase gradually to big spot. And now I see that my warranty reduced to 3 years. How it possible? Maybe Dell make for potential problematic panels reducing of time warranty?
Or this only mistake. I hope you understand my anxiety.
