Garmin 2557 LMT replaced our 1490. Colors are so washed out that the graphics can barely be seen. We adjusted brightness, auto, etc. Is it a defect?

I've just bought the 2557, also replacing a 1490, which I really liked. I feel like this 2557 has horrible contrast, and as you say, all colors look weak and faded. Did you have any success with follow up regarding yours? Nothing I see on my screen matches the bright colors on the Garmin website or product sales card from the store. May return it, as it's quite frustrating and... oddly, distracting.

Try turning "Deep Color Output" in the video settings to "Off". Seems to be working for me...

I didn't own the camera for long. The camera malfunctioned before I could install it. They have little to no help avaliable. The colors seemed to be a little darker,but not washed out. I hope this information is helpful .

The unit we have is bright and crisp. I am happy with the screen, so I'm thinking you may have a faulty screen.

No, not really. The color is bland and even tech support cannot fix it. I have a nice one that I got from Microsoft. I am just going to continue to use that one.

The display can be replaced by Garmin. They have a repair/update policy that will take care of your problem for $99 + tax. Contact Garmin.com with your request.

it certainly doesnt have the same quality as ones such as Retina Displays or the new galaxies but its damn close. make sure you set the settings on both the monitor and the computer display or else the monitor would continuously try to adjust color because it the settings aren't set right.

Hello there....sorry to hear that you are having issues. I bought mine for my son. He told me that he is using the factory settings, default, and the picture looks great. try using the default settings, if that does not work you may want to return it. Hope this helps....good luck.

The color and image looks washed out on any screen that isn't white or near white.

If you turn the RGB dials an no other colors will show, you might. You can always RMA it and try another one. So far I've had no issues.

The color display is dependent on the graphics card itself, not the CPU chip. Make sure you have a good driver installed, and you might want to reseat the card if you're still having issues.

If you fins something please let me know. The contrast of the screen is terrible!!!

It sounds like an internal problem. My friend had one that developed a broken wire at it's connection. Garmin replaced it. No problems with mine or his since he received the replacement.

See calibration results here: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/content/benq_xl2420t.htm (note: the brightness will be quite low for gaming, adjust to your liking) And here: http://www.flatpanelshd.com/review.php?subaction=showfull&id=1344844562 You can also download presets for specific games from BenQ here: http://gaming.benq.com/downloads/ BF3 I think is too bright, but NFS has nice color contrast for racing games.

Same thing here. After their troubleshooting instructions (or anything I could find online) didn't work, they suggested that their crappy firmware update just "brought out some pre-existing hardware fault," and then wanted $75 to fix it. No, thank you.Don't buy a Garmin, they will just try to explain away their own mistakes.

Did you tried to reset to factory settings first to have the base settings? From there set up the picture contrasts color and brightness.

Go to the camera menu and then to settings. Maybe the brightness and contrast are too high. If not is not fixing it I would call Swann tech support at 1800 627-2799. they are open 24/7. If they can not fix it they will replace it if is still within warranty. Good luck
