Even less than it looks...

Advantages: Bang for buck, specs and features
Disadvantages: active matrix

Lenovo ThinkVision L192 has been in my use for a year now and I cant say anything else to it: It is amazing... Sleek design of black and anodized aluminum combined with state of the art technology results in a mouthwatering candy for casual users and gamers. Well, I have tested this monitor with different applications and I can rest assured that this monitor lives up to its stats. Compared to a 17" widescreen that has the same stats, the 19" seems ...
...them... Plus the 5 ms refresh rate ensures smooth and flawless motion. 300 candela per square meter might be somewhat stressful to the eyes but during daytime, it ensures good quality... 800:1 contrast gives more natural and pleasant color and looks, to me, even more appealing. Somewhat not good is the active matrix feature. After I have played Bioshock, then the active matrix changes the brightness level too high and it keeps it there even when ...

Excellent Dual use monitor/tv

Advantages: stylish, value for money, great picture, great sound
Disadvantages: signal may be affected by internet signal, dark shadows when lying down or playing dark games

I absloutely adore this monitor! Bought as a replacement for my old 17" massive old style monitor it was certainly a refreshing change! Pricey at its then selling price of £200 I would say that it has certainly lived up to its price tag. Firstly the monitor can be used for dual purposes - for example if you don't have a TV no worries you can use this instead. It comes with a handy remote that lets you switch between inputs for example your computer ...
...can choose to take up. The remote also gives every option you would get on a normal TV remote, i.e. volume, brightnes, program up and down, menu options and the choice to press the tv numbers if you so wish. It comes with digital TV already built in so if you've not quite got round to buying a set top box and don't want to get cable or sky then this is all you need. The monitor is 19 ", flat screen with speakers built in at the bottom. The sound ...

stylish, cheap and excellent value for money

Advantages: looks great, lots of ports, good image quality
Disadvantages: shaky stand and somewhat baffling control

After losing my previous television to a short-circuit, i was in desperate of a new set. Having been with a Toshiba for a while, i decided to buy from elsewhere. I was reluctant to buy an LG, as my friends had told me of their experiences with LG's poor sound quality on many of their products. After looking around, i found this and decided to risk it. For starters, id like to point out how impressed i was with the number of input and output ports ...
...PC plugged in at the same time, and still watch TV with the built in freeview, which comes with all the channels you would expect from any freeview box. The sound quality was good, but not great. if you set the volume too high, then it starts to sound a bit metallic, but after owning a Toshiba I was very used to this. The image quality more than made up for the sound quality. Capable of high resolutions, and high contrast levels (10000:1). you can ...

ViewSonic VA2216w - Great value 22" monitor

Advantages: 22" size, stylish design, great low price
Disadvantages: No DVI socket, not perfect picture

...different models, I found the Viewsonic VA2216w on offer for about £110 including VAT. This seemed great value for a new 22" widescreen monitor, perhaps the quality would lack? Impressed by what what I'd seen, I ordered it promptly. Viewsonic are monitor specialists so one would imagine they make good quality products. Friends and family of mine are quality connoisseurs and prefer brands like Iiyama, Sony and perhaps Samsung, but I like to find the ...
...packaging, I was really impressed by the external design. The monitor is built with black and silver plastic and is quite thin and lightweight, the plastic border of the screen is narrow. The bezel stand is also black and is fairly sturdy yet inconspicuous, allowing up and down angle movement. I think the physical design looks great and is the best of any monitor I've owned, it also nicely matches the rest of my PC. Starting up the screen with my ...
