I thought it uses S-IPS panel...
Did Dell change 2007FP panel from LG Philips S-IPS to Samsung PVA to prevent "banding" ?

He's talking about the FP not WFP (widescreen). The FP started with LG.Philips S-IPS panels then switched to Samsung S-PVA. This was before the banding firmware revisions. Some people have recieved S-IPS replacements though.

thanks for reply, Gpro
I am curious about panel of 2007FP because I'm going to buy one recently.
Hope I can get one without banding problems :]

According to a Dell sales rep that I talked to yesterday, the 2007wfp is no longer an S-IPS but is now the Samsung S-PVA as well!

According to my understanding this is true below, I'll have to double check tonight at home because now I am doubting myself.  So ignore what I said, I'll double check.

for the 2007WFP you should see: LPL WSXGA LM201W01

LPL = ?
WSXGA refers to the resolution (ie Wide SXGA)
LM201W01 is the panel model (LG.Philips S-IPS)

ALL 2007WFP use this panel (so far, anyway)

 

 

Well that's going to stir things up here ;)

Did you check on the service menu? Is it the LTM201M1?

Ignore this below until I confirm tonight.

Yes I just received my 2007WFP A02 revision and it unfortunely is a Samsung made in Mexico.  Should I just keep my A00 S-IPS LG one and return this A02 Samsung?  Oh btw I BELIEVE this is not a refurbished, it looked brand new in my eyes.  So that must mean all 2007 are now S-PVA and not S-IPS :(
