Title: A Great Buy For The Money
|
Date: October 9, 2008
|
Pros-Great buy at $134.00 + tax on sale. -Very clear and sharp image quality. -Menu friendly to adjust to any picture quality of your liking. -Slim design, takes up very little desk space. -Very easy to set up and install.
Cons-Must be viewed at directly to get full quality image; viewed at any angle affects picture quality.
Review:Overall - Excellent monitor for the price! A big step up from a 17" crt monitor. Again for the price cannot be beat; however I regret not going the extra buck for the 19" but am very pleased with this monitor. Being a widescreen most photos/pictures I have do not fill the whole screen, however no fault of the monitor after all it is a widescreen.

Title: it's good enough?
|
Date: July 11, 2008
|
Pros-cheap -hardware looks sharp -decently compact i would say the response is fast, and panel is glossy, but when color is this poor, what does it matter?
Cons-worst color in an LCD i've owned -leaks light at top and bottom of panel.
Review:i guess you could say i hate LCD. when it's cheap, the color or response or viewing angle ranges from so-so to dreadful. if you want good color, prices start at ~$400, or whatever the IPS panel of the moment starts at.
i bought this when the secondary monitor for my HTPC broke. it does its job perfectly, allowing me to control music and my VOIP app without having to turn my projector on. i use it to control video when the projector IS on. it's small (imagine a CRT on a chair in your living room just to control your music; i had to do that while i waited for this LCD) and it was almost as cheap as a used good CRT.
my main use display device on my main use computer, however, is a Dell CRT (my first Dell, and third ever CRT) with a 1905fp as a secondary on THAT system. i just can't see myself spending $400 on an LCD just to get good color reproduction. oLED and SED can't come soon enough.

Title: Beautiful! I love it!
|
Date: May 18, 2008
|
ProsBeautiful picture, sharp, colors appear to be true to life. Far surpasses my old crt monitor. It is compact and takes up minimal space on my desk. and I'm assured of the fact that, should I have to move it for some reason, it is not going to be a major undertaking . It also helps that I didn't have to spend a mint to get a quality monitor. That's always a plus.
ConsNone that I can see.
