A friend of mine has been telling me about these korean-made monitors
(they are "PLS" which I was told is Samsung's version of IPS?)
that are based on Samsung's panels.

Does anybody here know the differences or knows any sort of forum/review where
differenet models of these monitors are compared?
i do not know about "PLS", but i was curious too and found a good analysis not
too long ago; here are some quick finds that may have the same info, a bit
dated though:

<http://www.anandtech.com/show/5885/the-achieva-shimian-qh270-a-350-27inch-wqhd-sips-display>
i was curious about the units from Monoprice, but i learned that some eBay
vendors (including Qnix) use the same panels; they are apparently IPS panels
which are not top-grade, so in essence seconds from the runs of panels made for
Apple and other quality display vendors; they may have color or illumination
irregularities, and the dead-pixel guarantees (and overall warranty terms)
vary; they also tend to be in cheap enclosures and have limited controls and
input options (you may need an expensive dual-link DVI adapter)
all-in-all you may get a great one, or not; i'd hate to have to send one back
to Korea under warranty
