NEC MultiSync 20WMGX2 20" LCD Monitor from Amazon.com Best 1680 x 1050 overall LCD monitor available on the market. It isn't suited for professional photo-editing, but comes very close (It will do if you are just starting out). from Amazon.com Pros: After a rediculous long time research and multiple returns, finally I found my dreamed LCD monitor. This NEC has perfect picture quality, especially its color, very saturate and accurate. from Newegg.com 0 dead pixel for me D; Cons: seems like monitor makes static noise when LED goes orange(sleep mode i believe).. it is hard to notice unless you go near the back of the monitor.. i was working something close to LCD.. noise was very annoying. from Newegg.com Pros: wanted a either 22",24"ws lcd to begin with for gaming and multimedia capabilities.after much research decided to go with this. incredibly bright and vivid colors. from Newegg.com I do a lot of photo editing and am getting interested in graphics. I had a first generation NEC LCD but the technology has turned over quite a bit and I was ready for an upgrade. At first this monitor seemed very expensive for its size. from Amazon.com Pros: This monitor is incredible, the brightness, clariry, viewing angle, inputs, and configurability (right down to the power button brightness) is top notch! Oh and not a single bad pixel either! Cons: Absolutely none other than the tv tuner showing just how bad standard tv res is, not that its the lcd's fault! 525x384(?) just doesn't look the greatest when its scaled up to 1680x1050. from Newegg.com Pros: Well it's all been said about this unit. Here's a very nice display with excellent brightness, clarity, sharpness, and color. It's built well and has some decent adjustment features. from Newegg.com I am very pleased with this monitor. I did an extensive search, unfortunately primarily online -- it would be preferable to see monitors but that's not possible for all. For my Powerbook 15" G4, I looked at Apples and Samsungs, read reviews, and finally settled on this NEC because of its specs and general NEC reliability. I've had it now almost a month, 6 or 7 or more hours/day and it's excellent, sharp, clear and true colors (as true as true is, at least) with ample adjustments possible --- and as an especial bonus, it's really helped my eyes. from Amazon.com Pros: Color gamut, brightness, response time, DV presets for standard/text/gaming(those 3 are very useful) placement of USB ports, wire management, semi-gloss surface(I normally hate glossy LCDs, but this is anti-glare gloss, it's phenomonally good), No defects or dead pixels, Speakers come off easily w/screwdriver(see manual), component input, PiP, power LED brightness adjustable, excellent scaling, zero backlight leaking. Cons: Some slight banding in tests, not noticable normally. from Newegg.com
