If you are in the market for an all-purpose 24-inch monitor with a high end PVA panel, the good news is that the Hyundai W241D is cheaper but broadly as good as the competition. After all, it shares the same panel technology. Similarly, several of its minor glitches, such as slightly oversaturated colours and a [...]

On the whole then, the NEC AccuSync LCD24WMCX has its share of problems with precise editing of photos taken in a photo studio, but it was never intended for that usage model – NEC has a whole host of displays that deliver colour accuracy far and above this particular screen. And for most usage models—especially [...]

Clearly the ViewSonic VX1940w is not a mass market monitor that will convince the mainstream hordes to ditch their 22-inch panels. But it could be extremely attractive for a few niche markets and for those able to divert their attention away from simple screen acreage.
Obviously, it’s a great solution when space is in short supply. [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 21, Reviews, Samsung, Widescreen
Awkwardly proportioned and packed with ostensibly clever but actually rather pointless image quality enhancements, what exactly do we make of Samsung’s new 21.6-inch display? In default mode—the mode we recommend you leave this display set to—it’s a solid but unspectacular performer.

The NEC MultiSync LCD3090WQXi is an amazing screen that not only fits the bill for professionals, but will also appeal to those of us that want stunning image quality, a whole host of features and acres of desktop real estate. Of course, the price will undoubtedly put a lot of people off this screen, but [...]

# The good: The HP w2207 LCD monitor showed the strongest overall performance in its class; sharp new design; screen can swivel to portrait mode; reasonable price; HDCP-compliant.
# The bad: HP’s My Display software is buggy and needs refinement; HD video still better on a TV.

Posted by Jon Heizer as 22, BenQ, Reviews, Widescreen
If ever a monitor was a tale of two halves, the BenQ X2200W is it. The bad half of the equation is that the image enhancement measures area a major flop. In truth, we didn’t expect a great deal. Traditionally, these sorts of techniques tend to promise a whole lot more than they deliver. In [...]

Cons
Weaker performance with an analog connection; no built-in speakers; small fonts not easily readable
Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP-HC LCD Monitor Review - Computer Shopper.
Posted by Jon Heizer as 20, HP, Reviews, Widescreen
The good: Attractive looks; strong overall image quality; HDCP-compatibility lets you watch protected HD movies.
The bad: Less-than-stellar HD movie playback quality; HP’s software continues to be a work-in-progress.
The bottom line: It’s a little shy on features, and we wouldn’t recommend the HP w2007 for HD movie watching. Then again, we wouldn’t suggest you use any [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 19, Envision, Reviews, Widescreen
The good: HDCP-compliant; sometimes found on sale for a significant price reduction.
The bad: Worst image quality we’ve seen in a while; obstructed DVI port access.
The bottom line: Envision’s G918W1 display loses points for its subpar performance and irritating design, which makes it hard to recommend–unless you can find a good deal or are in the [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 22, Gateway, Reviews, Widescreen
The good: Excellent image quality; bevy of video ports; four USB 2.0 ports; thin bezel and lack of menu buttons creates attractive appearance; sturdy base.
The bad: One-year warranty is two years less than average; touch-sensitive controls are too sensitive; slightly less contrast than competing displays; lacks DVI cable.
The bottom line: If not for the short [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 20, Reviews, ViewSonic, Widescreen
The good: Unique, swiveling stand gives you more adjustability than other LCDs in its class; mostly strong performance; thorough service and support coverage
The bad: No HDCP-compliance; irritating onscreen display; especially bad audio output; expensive
The bottom line: Even if you don’t care that ViewSonic’s VG2030wm lacks HD DVD or Blu-ray support, we can’t give this LCD [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 22, Reviews, ViewSonic, Widescreen
The good: Excellent image quality; integrated Webcam and microphone; headphone jack; base swivels 360 degrees.
The bad: Only DVI and VGA video inputs; no downstream USB ports; no height adjustment or pivot; base could be sturdier; glossy bezel prone to smudges and glare; brutally bad speakers.
The bottom line: The 22-inch ViewSonic VX2255wmb features a wide-screen display [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 19, Acer, Reviews, Widescreen
The good: Attractive looks; selectable preset image quality settings; solid overall performance.
The bad: No speakers; no HDMI input; no HDCP support for protected HD movies; too expensive at suggested retail price.
The bottom line: We wouldn’t pay more than $200 or so for any 19-inch LCD, but if you need a smaller screen and can find [...]
Posted by Jon Heizer as 24, NEC, Reviews, Widescreen
The good: Naviset software brings most of the onscreen display options into Windows display properties; HDCP-compliant; built-in USB 2.0 hub; four-way adjustable stand.
The bad: Only minor performance gains for an expensive price tag.
The bottom line: NEC’s MultiSync LCD2470WNX has a higher-than-average price compared to other 24-inch displays, and we just don’t see enough of a [...]
