Neovo F 417w

Advantages: Cheap, Elegant, Stylish
Disadvantages: Feels cheaply made

...Before i got this monitor i'd never heard of AG Neovo, so i suspect neither have you. This lead towards me having a cautious decision on whether to buy it, but im glad i did. It really is a nice stylish monitor, gives out a brilliant, radiant picture with an astonishing response time. The monitor is nearly all screen, not alot in the ways of plastics around the actual LCD, which is another good point. Theres only 2 disadvantages to this product, the first is that it feels cheaply made (what can you expect from a 17inch monitor for just £120ish) although i have had no problems so far, i can't put my trust in it 100% to hold out. The only other bad point, is that i wish i would've paid an extra £40-£50 for the F-419, the 19inch version. All in all though, this is a really brilliant product and does all i could ask of it, with style... Read review

Advantages: Good quality and great value
Disadvantages: Warranty has hidden downfalls

...The F419 is a great monitor, at a good price, good resolution and an awesome picture, 1280 x 1024 max resoultion (I can't work with anything lower!). The OSD can be a bit fiddly but seems to have an auto setup system, which makes life a whole lot easier. It also comes with a DVI - DVI cable which is handy, but I never have noticed any difference in picture quality. Overall a good quality monitor but the warranty leaves a little to be desired .... I bought my AG Neovo F419 in 2005, and had just under a year of good quality use - but then the backlight died and I called up AG Neovo Warranty in the UK, and then said that it is a swap-out warranty - you basically exchange your faulty one for a new one - or so I though, I'm on my third exchange, and I'm not impressed. My first monitor was great, not a single dead pixel, but only lasted... Read review

Advantages: Thin Bezel, Great Image Quality, Easy Setup.
Disadvantages: No DVI Input.

...As soon as I opened the box, I was pleased with my purchase. They included the monitor of course, the stand, an AC cable, instructions, and a driver disk. It was very easy to setup, simply plug it into the mains (power supply is built in; nice feature) and into my PC, then turn everything on. It worked straight away, and once Windows had loaded up, I pressed Auto, which adjusted it to optimal settings. I was very pleased with the image quality, though I knew through Neovo's reputation that it was going to be good. The design is very simple and elegant, nothing less than excellent. It doesn't have speakers, though this works very well for me as I am a bit of an audiophile and always find monitor speakers tinny and personally inaudible. Another fact which may influence anyone interested in this monitor is the lack of a DVI input... Read review
