Great monitor., 20 May 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What is this?)

This review is from: LG W2261VP 22 inch LCD Monitor 16:9 DVI HDMI - Black (Personal Computers)

For the price, this monitor is an absolute bargain for those looking for a gaming/multimedia screen.

It is actually 21.5", however for my needs I see this as a bonus due to it's full HD resolution makes the pixels very small - great for those looking for smooth visuals even without antialiasing cranked up. You'll be pleased to know that it shows 1280x720 well too, infact even my sensitive eyesight has been struggling to notice it when AA is on x16Q.

Backlight bleeding is unnoticable from a comfortable viewing distance when displaying black, and colours needed no changing - however I did have to turn the brightness and contrast down somewhat.

From my personal experience (4 LG screens) 2 have had dead pixels. I'm sure this is just unlucky on my part, but make sure you check your screen (use a program that can display bright colours full screen) for any dead or lazy pixels.
