Hi xtknight, referring readers to your recommendations list as usual, I have found very strange things. 1. The first thing that surprised me is the Dell U2410 position. In short, a fact of presence of (at least) the NEC 2490WUXi in your list simply cancels the Dell U2410. To be more...

xtknight, No, it has never been. That's what we study history for. This knowledge helps us understand the present and manage the future. It's a common mistake to mix up HDTV video standard with LCD monitor resolution. Those are two different operas. "Full HD"="1080p" is related to...

xtknight, About the Samsung F2380. There must be an important correction. I have never mentioned 16:9 as a good thing. On the contrary, 16:9 is disadvantage. Instead of true 1920x1200 (16:10) it has just cropped 16:9. No one should be deceived by "23" 1920x1080 novelty":thumbsdown...

xtknight, thank you for your reply. Some notes. Quotes from my Dell 2408WFP review: "Among myriads of images around us one can find those less susceptible to color shifting. Below are examples... " "*VA?s black crush is less pronounced on motion pictures than on static ones, but...

Thank you for excellent photos. Well, nothing personal, but when people try to demonstrate how good TN monitors are, they usually involuntarily demonstrate the opposite, because facts speak for themselves and do not need comments. You've made a number of correct observations and a number...

Hi xtknight, I keep recommending your great resource wherever possible. I received feedback from people I referred to this site regarding the Samsung 2493HM. They say it's presence in gaming section can be justified by low input lag. But multimedia? This model received negative review at...

Hello xtknight , I have found the first professional test review of the NEC 24WMGX3 - translation is here.. Accordind to the review, an outstandig monitor for multimedia. Low input lag. IMO the only con is A-MVA panel. It seems to be a good candidate to your recommendation list. Thanks.

It means nothing related to 1080p support or overscan. This is a simple exercise to see how PC videocard works. Testing for hardware video support/blu-ray/PS3 is totally different.

My guess why the Dell 3008 is not recommended: 1. It's obviously overpriced. About $1500-1600 would be fair for it for the time being. 2. At least HDMI and component inputs don't support video properly (overscan, cropping) - confirmed. Other analog inputs most probably do the same. Two DVI...

The NEC 3090WQXi continues the tradition of 90-series: persitantly named "for professionals" it's in fact at the same time the best universal monitor of 30" in the market. Two DVI are enough for PC + entertainment device connection (the Dell 3008 has same number of workable inputs - 2 DVI...

From what I have known, Samsung XL20 (as well as other XLs) is far apart of any practical value. It has older format (4:3), relatively small screen, combines *VA panel problems (colorshift, viewing angles) with LED BL problems (uneven color distribution, etc). All that for the price of a large...

Hello, xtknight Here is the NEC 3090 WQXi user's review. I believe it deserves placement in this classification. It seems to me 3090 would be surely above 3007 in Office Work section. In all other areas it will be at least #3 after 2490/2690. Thank you.

Yes, we were. Yes and no. "Yes" for the Eizo S2231W. Some users of new PVA wide gamut panels of different sizes mention that one side of the panel is brighter than another. It's not necessarily the case with the pictured monitor. *VA anlge gamma/color shift issue is enough to make the Eizo...

All PVA Eizos have gamma shift (better word for this problem is colorshift; colorshift=loss of details in darker tones from front view+color washout from angle view). By design, *VA technology means colorshift. There is no relationship between gamma/colorshift and color gamut. The NEC 2690 is...

Black crush + colorshift on 2707 is not even a grain better than on 2408 or any other PVA.

This monitor has just one digital input - no possibility to connect a PC and a quality stand alone device at the same time. All analog inputs suffer from overscan and cropping. 2707 has far from perfect viewing angles. It radiates heat in all directions. My unit had backlight...

1.The best way is to buy SV model with the colorimeter and NEC's software. 2. All colorimeters and their software are sold bundled together. The problem is that only NEC's software (SpectraViewII, SpectraView Profiler) is able to calibrate NEC monitors' LUT - hardware calibration. Several...

More info about NEC 2490WUXi I have had NEC 2490WUXi on my desk for about a year. Here I found it listed in PHOTO EDITING/WEB DESIGN section as #1 and that is absolutely true. The only model to compete in this area is NEC 2190UXi which is 4:3 though. But this remark: "somewhat suitable...
