Advantages: Clear and crisp image, stylish
Disadvantages: only at 1024 x 768 res.

...However turning round this 3kg compaq TFT is no trouble at all so the on screen serial display just serves to mock the inadequacies of my CRT. Display The colour is beautifully clear and crisp, but only at the one resolution of 1024 x 768. At 800 x 600, this monitor does not perform very well and the picture is noticeably fuzzy. This goes for all TFT monitors though, in that they only have one optimal resolution they work at; which is my major gripe ...
...CRT at 1024 x 768 despite being a 19” just because I like everything bigger and less of a strain on the eyes, I like the CRT’s flexibility to accommodate this. But to be honest this TFT is so easy on the eye that multiple resolutions aren’t required. And after a day in the office looking at this TFT most of the day, and then coming home to my CRT, I can really tell the difference on how much less strain on the eye it is, despite owning a very respectable ...

Advantages: Clear screen, easy set up, cheap
Disadvantages: sometimes text unclear.

I recently purcahsed this monitor from John Lewis at a very reasonable price, lower than i see it available today. The monitor itself was ready to go straight from the box. The brightview technology is superior to a standard CRT or even 99% of LCD monitors i have seen, the picture is clear and crisp and shows photos off magnificently. A small downfall is that sometimes when reading text it can be slightly blurry, but all you need to do then is use ...
...happens once in a month if that. the 1000:1 contrast ratio is fine for this sized screen, blacks are brilliantly black and highlight the colours, the clearscreen is clearly the way forward in the future. I would suggest this Monitor too all but especially those who play computer game, watch tv or films on their comp, not neccessary for those who just use the internet etc. The black rim around the edge also highlights the monitor, similar to the samsung ...

Advantages: Larger Screen, Fast Response Speed, Vivid Colours
Disadvantages: Gloss Frame attracts lots of dust

...17". The colours on the Samsung are much bolder and clearly defined due to the high contrast ratio. This panel has a 2ms response speed which makes it perfect for even the most serious gamer. Although the unit is feature packed and of excellent quality the suprisingly slim casing means that you don't have to sacrifise that precious workspace to benefit from the larger screen size. The only minor bad point I have about this monitor is the way that ...

Advantages: Light, reliable, long lasting, low energy consumption
Disadvantages: Displays slightly out of focus, colours are slighlty blue saturated

I have had the Samsung Syncmaster 192v (19" screen) for 3 and a half years now in conjunction with a Mac Mini by Apple. Having used it for a multitude of different purposes, I will endeavour to explain all the benefits and drawbacks of this monitor. COST First thing I did, of course, is buy it. At around £300, it was one of the more expensive in Dixons, but then again, Dixon's is expensive. At time of writing (June 2008), one of these monitors ...
...me use something like this Samsung and its standard port, and it's excellent. Ypu also get some software that runs on Windows based PCs that allow simple calibration. You will most likely never need this as it's a plug and play monitor, and this bundle was added in as a needless value-add for techy-heads who really want to fiddle with settings that mainstreamers will never bother with. You can angle the monitor from a flush 90 degree ange to the ... Read review
