Viewsonic VX194ow
For general use, the Viewsonic VX1940w strikes the right balance of performance and value in reviews. While most 19-inch monitors have a resolution of 1400 by 900 pixels, the VX1940w has a resolution of 1680 by 1050… pixels, which is the same as a 20- to 22-inch monitor, but with a smaller footprint and at a lower cost. This helps it stand out in what has become a very crowded size class. Reviews say the Viewsonic LCD monitor performs well with text, graphics, movies and games, and that image quality is clear and sharp.
Samsung SnycMaster 2053BW
In its size class, the Samsung SyncMaster 2053BW gets high ratings as one of the best general-purpose LCD monitors. Reviews praise color and grayscale accuracy and say uniformity is good for a widescreen monitor. A good… choice for home or office, reviewers are also impressed with its stylish design and ease of use. The monitor has a resolution of 1680 by 1050 pixels.
Samsung SyncMaster 2253BW
The Samsung SyncMaster 2253BW is fast and inexpensive for a 22-inch widescreen monitor. That makes it ideal for home use, including gaming and watching movies. The 2253BW performs well in formal tests; it also receives… praise from a wide range of users. Its designer appearance is attractive, but lack of height adjustability and features may limit its appeal for some users. The 2253BW has a resolution of 1680 by 1050 pixels.
Samsung SyncMaster 2443BWX
Samsung LCD monitors get excellent reviews in general. This 24-incher is the successor to the well-reviewed Samsung SyncMaster 245BW, with the same underlying panel technology and features but an updated, sleeker-looking… bezel. The SyncMaster 2443BWX has a thin, glossy bezel with touch controls and a speedy response time of 5 milliseconds. It can also display high- definition content with ease (resolution is 1920 by 1200 pixels).
Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP
Most inexpensive LCD monitors (like the Samsung 2443BWX above) use the cheapest type of panel technology called “TN,” which is fine for general use. But the 24-inch Dell 2408WFP uses a better-quality S-PVA panel — which… makes it better for graphics and photo work. Native resolution is 1920 by 1200 pixels. Reviewers are very impressed with text and image quality, making the 2408WFP one of the most unanimously praised LCD monitors on the market. Color accuracy is a little weak compared with $1,000 professional monitors, but experts still say the Dell 2408WFP is an excellent all-around monitor.
