Iiyama - a name to trust

Advantages: Quality, design
Disadvantages: Price

...Thanks in advance for reading this and I hope it helps you in making a purchasing decision. Over a decade ago I was a poor student shopping for my first ever PC. I knew what I wanted - a 486 processor running at 25MHz, 8Mb RAM, 200Mb harddrive and most importantly an Iiyama 14" monitor. Sadly the wages department of the hotel restaurant I worked through that long and tedious summer dictated a few small changes. The PC eventually became a 386 processor running at 40MHz, 4Mb RAM, 120Mb harddrive and no Iiyama monitor. Instead of the Iiyama I had some rebadged monitor with a huge curve and a low refresh rate. The Iiyama was the first thing to drop off the list as it saved the most money. My point? Even then Iiyama was synonymous with quality and of design and product. The Cathode Ray montiors they produced then had an appropriately...

IIyama vision master pro 1413 17"

Advantages: Price, quality, reliability
Disadvantages: Not for advanced and demanding users

...1 IIyama is definitely one of most recognized and respected both CRT and LCD manufacturer,( for Windows and Macintosh) and that places it above other producers on market because of it's expirience, and japanese origin. Sometimes people say that company that is focused on one specific item makes better stuff and if it comes about IIyama i can fully agree. External look IIyama vision master pro 1413 17" is simple monitor without addons like speakers or tv tuner and is available in cream (white) color ( some other models comes in black or silver ). Unusual design creates a picture of massive and solid construction and reminds me an oval cut in half. Monitor is put together very well, all joints fits perfectly. Even being a low budget product still looks as new; plastics used to assebble are rather good quality and have...

Iiyama Vision Master Pro 513

Advantages: Huge picture
Disadvantages: Huge footprint

...I chose this particular make of monitor for two reasons. Firstly, I have a friend who chooses Iiyama for his web design business and he was singing their praises. They produce a stable and detailed image suitable for professional use so that was a good start. Secondly, I wanted a really large monitor for PC games and this one's a whopper. It's a 22". The latest releases with their tremendous detail and realism come to life on this massive screen. DVDs seem perfectly clear. One thing I noticed on this monitor that I hadn't experienced before was the loud and clunky way it selects it's screen resolution for games and at certain other times. I'm used to that now but I thought it worth mentioning. The degauss function is easy to find when you work out the menus and identify how to operate it but a simple button marked, 'degauss...

BUSH 27" WIDESCREEN LCD TV

Advantages: nice flat screen, sharp clear picture
Disadvantages: can the cat knock it over? not hd ready?

...end of line 27" widescreen lcd flat television and just had to buy it. The only trouble was, that being end of line meant that you could not order it for delivery, so I did a search of all my local stores until I found one and we reserved it for collection the next day. My husband came home with the tv, we unpacked it and installed it so easily, it was a dream. The Techinical description of this television in the Argos catalogue is Bush LCD27TV005 27in Widescreen LCD TV. The Argos order number is: 529/2150 and we paid £399.99. From what I have read online, this television was retailing at around £600 originially, but at the moment, all of the LCD televisions seem to be 26 or 30/32 inches, so it looks like they are phasing out the 27" ones. The television is silver in colour and the speakers are each end of the television...

Iiyama Vision Master 1451 Review

Advantages: Big screen, sharp colours, high refresh
Disadvantages: Big

...and increases all the way to 120Hz at 1024x768. This is excellent for a CRT monitor of this age. I too have never needed to use the onsite warranty. The screen settings are very easy to use and understand. The buttons are labled obviously and do waht they say they will. The manual is good however is highly Americanised (Iiyamas being designed in California). Overall this is a good monitor and will most probably last you for years without a noticable degradation in performance. The only reason I stopped using mine was that I got a TFT. Which is just plain lovly....

Iiyama still the Best!

Advantages: Razor Sharp Definition, Steady Picture, Flat Screen
Disadvantages: Controls can be a bit finicky

...Iiyama....this name has been around for many years as one of the leaders in screen technology, it is renowned for the very high quality of it's picture. Since I started in computers back in 1987 I have always tried to own a good monitor because you only have one set of eyes. I've had Taxan's, Sony's, Viewsonic's, and finally Iiyama's. The latest one being the Vision Master Pro 452, it's a 19" Aperture Grille Monitor, and is a member of the group that are call NF Naturally Flat, and yes the screen is flat, dead flat. Because of this the picture is extremely sharp and defined, this is due to the Mitsubishi Daimondtron Tube and Iiyama's excellent electronics. Small text sometimes can be a little difficult to read but this is a charactureistic of the Aperture Grille technology, but if it's graphics that you are after this is an absolutely...

Review of Iiyama Vision Master Pro 452

Doesn't live up to iiyamas reputation

Advantages: High refresh rates, it's not to bad for a 15" shadow mask monitor
Disadvantages: it's not a great 15" shadow mask monitor, 15" monitors aren't that great anyway.

...The MF-8515G doesn?t do the name iiyama justice. The monitor has poor power regulation, which means the picture resizes when the screen moves from large amounts of white to large amounts of black on the screen. The contrast is also quiet poor, though bear in mind I am writing this on the iiyama Vision Master pro 410 (Also known as the a702-ht for no apparent reason) which is the finest monitor known to man as far as I?m concerned, so anything else looks poor! In it?s favour it does have a good OSD by iiyama standards, though it?s still the area iiyama constantly loose out in, and it has good refresh rates for a 15? monitor. All the same, have a look around before buying this....

Review of Iiyama MF-8515G (Visionmaster 350)

Iiyama Vision Master Pro 451

Advantages: Best resolutions. Best refresh rates. Stylish. Light weight. Long lasting. Big 19" display, small case
Disadvantages: Expensive. Trinitron (2 dark lines 1/3 & 2/3 down screen). No installation disk (Files on Internet). Blurry at far corners at highest resolutions

...I have been upgrading my pc ever since I bought my first one. I can actually say that I have enough spare parts to build another seperate pc. Never for one moment did I think that it was about time that I improved my interacting experience with my computer. But recently I decided that since I spend such a long time on my pc per day I should get something to reduce eye strain and fatigue. I decided I wanted a monitor, not just any monitor because I new that monitors are THE most expensive part of a pc. I wanted to make sure I could get a monitor I new I could trust. I read endless reviews and found out that the company Iiyama was recently rated 3rd best monitor manufacturer. But that was overall, as far as quality goes I had read the specs of the monitor Vision Master Pro 451 and was SERIOUSLY impressed. The Vision Master Pro...

Best LCD/TFT 17" on market

Advantages: looks, style and class
Disadvantages: Not a big name

No particular make bothered me. Was keen on a 20" LG TFT but it was not compatable to PC only TV. So i stumbled apon this 171WT and it looked great and it was priced at £349.00 . It was in stock so i just collected it. LESS ABOUT THE SITUATION KEV, AND MORE ABOUT THE PRODUCT:- Product Spec.
