| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Beautiful, bright monitor
Installed easily using the digital interface. Picture quality is great! I use it for both daily web surfing, e-mails, etc. as well as editing photos. Color fidelity seems good so far, no bad pixels.
I was hoping to purchase a widescreen format monitor, but none of the widescreens seem to use the type of LCD panel that is best for faithful and consistent color reproduction. In moving from my widescreen laptop monitor to this, I was worried that the loss of screen width (in pixels) would bug me. However, I have found that the added height (in aspect ratio terms) makes up for it easily in all the applications I have used so far.
Pixel pitch is great - it keeps text large enough to legible without having to get my nose too close to the screen. The screen can be very bright (which can be both good or bad - depending on the situation), but once I calibrated it using Spyder2Express, everything looks wonderful.
Good product, good price. | 5 | Today | amazing
bought this for mostly for photo editing and general use.
was not disappointed. 8-bit true 16.7 million colors, wide viewing angle, PVA panel very good deal. Most every LCD screen now a day is TN panel.
Buy One if a cheap accurate display is what your looking for and you don't really care for gaming. | 5 | Today | True 8/24 Bit Color
Note that this is a true 16.7 million (8/24 bit) color unit, but it "pays the price" with only a 20mS response time, therefore, four stars.
Monitors with 16.2 million (6/18 bit) colors actually have only a bit more than 262,000 colors. The 16.2 million claimed colors are obtained by dithering and tricking your eye/brain into "seeing" colors that aren't really there. By using only 6 bits instead of 8 bits for R, G, & B, the manufacturers can greatly reduce the response time down to a speedy 8mS.
Your choice - true colors or fast response, but both in the same unit are $$$.
I've got the 940T for color work, and two 730B units (6 bit, 8mS) for additional work space, and for the occasional movie. The difference in colors and smearing/ghosting are noticeable when the monitors are side-by-side and displaying the same material. | 4 | Today | Problem with dark shades
I bought this hoping to do photo editing work but sadly the color accuracy of this monitor's PVA panel is quite poor in the dark shades. Basically, dark shades are drawn as pure black or very near black, without any subtlety or gradation. I had to return it for a monitor that uses an S-IPS panel and I'm much, much happier with it, although the price was considerably higher.
Everything else about this monitor is great so if color accuracy in the dark shades isn't important to you then it is highly recommended. The ergonomics are very good, the latency is better than I expected, brightness and contrast are both very good, and of course sharpness is excellent with a DVI connection. Mine had no dead or stuck pixels. I'd like to give it a higher rating but I really expected better color accuracy from a modern display.
Don't be seduced by claims of 1000:1 contrast because in reality it doesn't matter very much. For example, many of the very high-end multi-thousand-dollar professional displays with integrated calibrators do no better than 500:1. | 3 | Today | Great Monitor, HORRIBLE Documentation
I have just purchased this monitor which I absolutely LOVE, but caveat emptor: the documentation for setting it up and using it was obviously written in Korean (by a very bright 5 year old) and then translated by dictionary alone. It does not come with a simple set-up sheet, which meant that it took me 15 minutes to figure out why it would not even turn on. ANSWER: you must turn the monitor upside down and flip the main power switch which is invisible unless the monitor is flipped. The front power switch only works then. Also it came with two sets of cables to attach to the cpu and (as they were unmarked save in Korean) I erronesouly attached the analog ones and did not know that.
Documenation aside, it is a very nice looking all-black simple monitor, the stand adjusts nicely, (vertically and you can flip the screen from portrait to landscape), and the clarity is great. | 5 | Today |
