LCD Monitors > BenQ LCD Monitors

Advantages: Big, lots of inputs, best in range
Disadvantages: Splash screen cannot turn off

I got this monitor for christmas and have been using it for my PC and PS3. It's FullHD (1080p) and has 6 video inputs. (HDMI, DVI-D, D-Sub (or VGA), S-Video, and Composite and Component). It has a very nice stand and comes with a number of cables. It has two USBs at the side and one of the top for webcams. In use, I've loved it. Perfect if you want 1080p HD and don't have the budget for a 42" plasma. Some people may but put off by the low contrast ...
...(20000:1 rather than 1000:1) however I have never noticed this ever being a problem. It has many viewing options, 1:1, aspect and full. Which gives you the option to either view 1080p at native res or strech it to fill the screen. This is the top end screen out of all the 24"s and I would definatly recommend it to someone how wants it for gaming, film watching etc ... Read review

Advantages: Good brightness, solid stand, no speakers
Disadvantages: The buttons are hidden along one of the sides

It used to be that whenever you bought a monitor you always had to think carefully about what your needs were, did you need space or speed, were you after longevity or good colour reproduction? Now we don't care half so much about any of these features simply because ever monitor available does good colours, is reliable and doesn't have problems with shadowing. (Shadowing used to be a problem with TFT's in that because of a slower refresh rate due ...
...images could be seen as a shadow in newer ones) At the moment what people are looking for in the TFT market are some simple numbers which compare each screen to ever other screen many of them don't matter but the ones that do are shown below: Contrast ratio, simply put the widest contrast variance between two cells. For this monitor the value quoted is 700:1, that's pretty good baring in mind that some monitors go as low as 300:1 but some go as ... Read review

Advantages: Nice sleek design, colour performance!
Disadvantages: Quite a few!...no audio loudpeaker !!!!!

...my best friend has this BenQ wide format TFT screen. This multiple use screen can be used for a variety of tasks: from checking your email to watching a HD movie or even playing HD games via the HDMI port.. Also, its relatively cheap! However apart from the above advantages there are no other advantages (I watch movies, play games and even surf the net on the monitor every other day...so believe me when I say there are no other major advantages.) ...
...(you can see why it is relatively cheap)....(But I believe for what it's worth, it's very overpriced should be 180-220 pounds!.) Basically one of the biggest disadvantages is that this TFT monitor posseses no audio loudspeaker! Therefore you have to either buy a seperate speaker system or use headphones ( my friends bought a wireless system which allows us both to listen to the monitor....however the price is quite dear!....BenQ certainly did not ...

Having a good search of the internet and shops we decided that the one we all liked was cheapest on www.ebuyer.co.uk. Cost and delivery The cost was £96 including VAT and free postage. Ordering and delivery was simple (see previous review). It arrived packed well and safely. Setting up This was just a simple case of plugging in and firing up the computer. Yes that simple. Monitor plus The monitor itself weighs 3.4kg, height is 37cm, depth 13.7 ...
...(hd15) 1 xdvi-d - 24 pin digital dvi. Although it is perfect without the digital dvi lead it is worth getting the digital dvi lead for interference free computing. Be careful though where you buy this as in pc World it is £30 on Amazon £10 with postage which is a bit of a difference. The dvi cable though may not be compatable with the connector on your graphics card but you can buy an adaptor. It will convert a d-sub to a dvi. It has a flat panal ... Read review

Advantages: crisp display, fast response, almost everything i can think of!
Disadvantages: 4:3 aspect

Just got this recently to replace my old Belinea 101530, and it was an excellent replacement. I was a bit sceptical about getting this when I was looking about, I saw the specs and say that it had response time of 2ms, great but the contrast ratio and brightness were not the best I'd seen on the net. Got the monitor and was not disappointed in the slightest! There really isn't much to say about this but I'll try... The monitor has a 19 inch screen ...
...this monitor is 1280x1024 which doesn't seem much better than older monitors but is adequate for the size of the screen. The brightness of the monitor is excellent, watching videos on the computer is now far more enjoyable now that I can actually see all the detail!As normal the brightness and contrast are set half way, I found that I had no need to change this, I did experiment with different settings but the default is fine. The only disadvantage ... Read review
