The best monitor available in the market.
I did a lot of research and found this monitor has the best quality and look. It is very easy to setup.

very cool
I liked this monitor so much that I bought two. I have always had picky eyes and always wanted an LCD on my desktop but could never deal with the image quality. Then this monitor came along, very bright, colorful image that no one can be unhappy with. When I first saw this monitor in the store I could not believe it was an LCD because of how bright the image is. This along with the neat tilt design makes the monitor outstanding.

One word of caution however, I had to replace one because of a dead pixel so make you sure you have the option to return within 30 days if defective. Also keep in mind that it has a fixed height so if you¡¦re over 6 foot 7 this monitor might not be for you ƒº

Wonderful & easy to setup
WOW! This is a really nice monitor and extremely easy to install. Two power cords and boot up and Windows 2000 found its own set of drivers for it automatically during boot up. Lots of options when fine tuning the visual output settings. Movies and videos look really fine on this bad boy! Highly recommend!

OMFG!!
What a great LCD. The Pictures are CRISP and BRIGHT. With a 12ms response time, this thing plays Games and shows HD DVD's 2nd to none. Best LCD I've ever seen

Best LCD
The HS95P is the clearest LCD monitor I have inspected. After visiting many retail stores and looking over the various models, I decided this one was superior over anything else. The style also looks great on my desk and does not look like the rest. It is simple to set up. ... Read more

With a footprint of just 14.6 by 10.4 inches, the S1+ sets up on nearly any convenient surface and weighs just 7 pounds, making transportation painless. An SVGA native resolution of 800 x 600 ensures that projected images retain their clarity even at great distances, while 24-bit color support of over 16.7 million shades results in accurate, true-to-life images.

A monitor out capability lets you display images on both the projected screen and on a monitor simultaneously, and compatibility with both PC and Mac operating systems ensures that your presentations a snap to set up, no matter which platform you're offered. The 500:1 contrast ratio provides sharp detail, and 1,400 ANSI lumens of brightness results in projections that are easy to see from anywhere in the room. The 130-watt UHE lamp provides over 2,000 hours of lamp life, while the internal power supply consumes 200 watts during normal operation and just 5 watts in standby mode. The S1+ has a variable aspect ratio of either 4:3 or 16:9 and an adjustable projection screen size of 30 to 300 inches. The digital zoom/manual focus lens has an F-number of 1.4 and an f-number range of 16.6mm, which combine with digital keystone correction of plus or minus 15 degrees to help achieve accurate, in-focus projections across the entirety of the image.

quality screen with a price that doesn't kill
-Yes, since this is an LCD projector it has several limitations, including the screen door affect and is also has limited resolution at 800X600. Although many people kick up a fuss about both of these traits, neither really matters. If you sit close enough to see the screen door affect or the individual pixels for that matter, then you probably won't be able to see the whole screen because you are sitting less than one foot away from it.

I bought my S1+ about 2 months ago and use it everyday. It has taken a beating when I take it friend's houses, parties, ECT. But has shown no signs of the abuse. When it is set up anywhere from 30" to 60" it looks the same as plasma or a large projector, except it is better because it does not have the glare of a normal TV. Since it's purchase I have also set up a 14-foot screen made of poster board in my garage (it will project nicely almost anywhere on almost any surface), which looks awesome and beats almost any other theater that I've ever been in.

When I first started looking through projectors I wanted something that should accept any interface that I threw at it. When I came across the S1+ I was intimidated because I didn't know how well it would project video games such as Halo2 for XBOX. After it's purchase I was relieved to find that I could have my computer, XBOX and PS2 all hooked up to the projector at the same time and switch between them using the remote control that came with it. All of them are awesome, especially with surround sound and games like DOOM3. Even when split into 4 screens for Halo, it's still quality. Also this is a pretty bright projector, I can have my windows open with several lights on and still easily the screen as if it was a TV.

This costs less then a plasma or a projection TV and can be made much smaller or larger then either. When they say 30"-300" they mean it. It will consume any wall you put in front of it.

Last, it is the easiest thing to transport I have ever seen. For a LAN party I throw my projector, surround sound system and my XBOX into my backpack, jump on my motorcycle and am off in just a few minutes.

If you are new to projectors or are just looking for a large HD TV at a good price, then this is the one that I recommend.

I am not sure how long the bulb last (some people say they die quickly), mine is just passing 500 hours, but they only cost $175, which is significantly less then most other projectors (around $350).

Bang for the Buck!
After borrowing a friends Sony VPLCX6 projector with 2000 lumens and watching American Idol and "I Robot" on my great room wall I was hooked. An exhaustive 2 month online ,in-store and Pawn Shop search ensued. I had 3 criteria to meet, under $1000, atleast 1200 lumens and minimum 800x600 native resolution.After searching every electronic outlet in the greater Peoria area my Father in law pointed me to Sams Club. The only projector they carried was the Epson Powerlite S1+ and @ $699 with 1400 lumens this was the culmination of my search.
I am projecting an image 8' x 6' onto a 1.3 gain theatre screen. With the s-video connection the picture is fantastic. Most broadcast cable is quite clear, satellite channels are better and DVD is awesome. Screendoor effect is present as the image is quite large but easy to ignore and lose it as the images are very crisp. Only if I were rich beyond rich would I go with a higher end projector!

Awesome value for Home Theater use
Just purchased this (check online for rebates) for a budget home theater setup.We are using this projector on an 80" screen in a very dark basement.While you can certainly get better contrast and brightness from other projectors, I challenge anyone to find a better value for this price point.I was not really expecting much from the projector when we purchased it and thought that this may be a good device for the kids to watch movies / play games on. But are finding that we are watching many more movies on this great projector.Low upfront costs and low bulb replacement costs make this a good choice if you are just getting into a front projection system.

warning
I suffer from DLP rainbow effect so had to go with an LCD unit.Colors are not as vivid and with the lower contrast ratio video images are not as good as DLP models.

"Screendoor effect" is extremely noticable especially in white/bright areas of video.

don't be fooled by the advertisment that this accepts component video signal (which gives you the best possible image).
I purchased a vesa adapter to connect via component video to the monitor connection on the unit.it didn't work.after some research, I found that you can only use Epson's adapter to make it work which runs $100.Now, am I going to get $100 worth of image gain over s-video? i don't think so.
do not buy this if you want to connect via component video. i read that Epson is the only company that doesn't use the standard adapter.

I also received a brand new unit with a dead pixel, which i read is pretty common for LCD projectors over time but i didn't expect it fresh out of the box that way.

When it works, it works well...
Before getting into how this projector works, I need to preface by saying that I am on my second projector and third bulb in 2.5 months.I teach school, and need the projector about 4 times/day at 15-20 minutes per use.Perhaps I should have considered a machine capable running consistently during a demanding duty cycle, but solid state electronics are usually not phased by this (and the bulbs, priced as they are, should not be either.)

When this projector works, it works well.It has a nice, bright image and good clarity/detail.It is quiet, runs cool, is light, and fairly portable.Compared to others on the market, the value per dollar is excellent.I seem to have had machines with teething problems though.

My first projector, purchased new mid-January of 2005, exhibited all the symptoms of a bad bulb within 2 weeks, and 20 hours on the clock.I called Epson tech. service, was walked through some diagnostics, and was told that a new projector would be out quickly.I received my "new" projector (actually a refurb. unit with more hours on the bulb than mine had) the next morning.Great turnaround, but to get a refurbished unit for my two-week new one, especially with the bulb hours as they were was no bargain.I called customer service to voice my opinion on this and they agreed that I was due compensation - I was promised a new bulb but never received it.I am still fighting for one.

The second projector worked for another 2 weeks, then operation became intermittant for a few hours, then the unit stopped working completely.

After another over the phone diagnosis, the rep. told me the bulb was bad, but that bulbs were out of stock -- same story I had received earlier.As of this writing, I am still waiting.

I don't know if this problem is endemic to this machine, but mine is certainly no gem.Maybe I need a heavy-duty model.I've always followed directions for cool down, haven't abused it, but continue to suffer the same problem on what is becoming a consistent basis.If I was rich, this wouldn't be problem, I'd just trade up.I give this machine a "C", and I give Epson's Customer Service Dept. a "C-".Next time, initial cost will not be such a huge issue in my purchase decision. ...

Amazon.com Product Description

Reasonably priced and sleekly designed, the ViewSonic VE-710 is a great choice for both home and workplace applications. Featuring up to 1,280 x 1,024 resolution (for both PC and Mac), a sharp 450:1 contrast ratio, and 300 nits of brightness, images are crisp, clear, and bright enough for viewing under everyday lighting conditions. The VE-710 also features a fast video response time (25 ms typical) to ensure that motion video and action-packed games are smooth and flicker-free.

This active matrix LCD offers wide 140-degree horizontal viewing angle (130 degrees vertical), letting you share and inspect onscreen graphics without having to crowd viewers immediately in front of the monitor. It features a unique 90-degree fold-up base design for easy wall-mounting. The panel by itself is just 2.2 inches thick, so it has a very slim profile no matter where you place it or how you configure it. An anti-glare coating reduces glare and the resulting eye fatigue.

Customizable settings include image adjustments, color controls, and menu language choices; these are accessed through an intuitive onscreen interface. ViewMatch color adjustments let you calibrate your settings to match a number of industry color standards (sRGB, 9300K, 6500K–default, 5400K, RGB). OnView controls also include an OSD lock that prevents accidental changes to your settings once you've adjusted them to your liking.

The ViewSonic VE-710 has it's own internal power supply with hard power switch. It comes with a handy installation CD-ROM that automates the installation process and automatically configures settings for optimized performance. It is backed by a three-year warranty on parts and labor.

Outstanding Monitor
I bought this one for my home computer and it made my old monitor look like it was cheap.This is an outstanding monitor.I am very pleased with it and if you got one you would be too.I would recommend this one over sony or any of the others.

Great bright colors
I got this monitor for my office and it is amazing.I used to use a 14 inch screen that my laptop had with it and I have to say, this is an immense improvement.The resolution it handles (1280x1024) is much better than the one my laptop displayed (1024x768).

The colors are bright and sharp and the styling of this monitor is great.Real slim frame and it looks very high tech.

Highly reccomend this item - especially for the price - it is a good buy. ... Read more

Disapointed
I bought this monitor in April 2004.It broke December 19.It started going to sleep in November and then on December it went permanetly black.The paper work needed by Sony inorder to send a replacement (refurbished) monitor was faxed and recieved by Soney that day.After many calls to Sony and promises of prompt replacement still nothing almost a mounth later.With warrenty service like this you should count on keeping a back up monitor ifyou buy a Sony.At the time we were in the market for a wide screen plasma TV.We got one but it was a Pioneer not the Sony we were looking at.

nice monitor
I have used this monitor for around a month now and generally like this monitor. I have previously used a Dell 18" UltraSharp LCD monitor, a ViewSonic 19" LCD monitor, and I would rank this one second to the Dell monitor. Reasons:

Pros:

1. Bright and contrasty. ViewSonic model scores worst although its spec says differently.

2. Very big screen, enough for professional work (coding, for example). However... see Cons part for detail

3. Lots of connectors available, two VGA connectors, one DVI. You can switch between them easily. THis make multiple PCs situation much easier since you don't need to buy extra monitor switch (and monitor switch tends to have display quality issue when resolution is 1600X1200).

4. It even has a small slot for laptop lock use. If you are worried about theft of the monitor, this feature is very convenient.

5. All control buttons are located at the right side of monitor. They are black (the same color as the monitor board itself) so they don't distract your attention during operation.

Cons:

1. Resolution is 1600X1200. Although its screen size is big, at this resolution, font appears to be too small to view. This affects almost all applications on Windows. Although you can tune Windows font size, but it does not apply to every application. And tuning each app is a major hassle. I actually like this monitor to have a native resolution of 1280X1024 so screen font is big and easy to read. Adjusting your computer's setting to 1280X1024 is not an option since the resulting blurring effect will drive you nuts over time (the screen has to stretch certain points to display in a lower resolution).

Beautiful screen
This monitor is expensive, but the resolution, crispness and lack of ghosting make it worthwhile if you can afford it. One cool feature that isn't really mentioned is that it has 2 analog vga inputs and one dvi input, which are all selectable.

This is a very nice, high end monitor. I would recommend it if you have the funds.

Beware of dead pixels.
I have to admit that this is a very fine and beautiful monitor. The display is very crisp and vibrant and the 1600x1200 resolution on a 20" monitor is definitely worth the hefty price tag.

BUT...

BUYER BEWARE...

I purchased one of these monitors and after two months dead pixels began appearing right in the center of the monitor. Of course, two months is usually longer than the period you have to return the product to your retailer for an exchange (hopefully no questions asked) without having to deal with Sony.

Anybody who has used an LCD monitor with dead pixels can empathize with how frustrating they can be, especially dead pixels located in the center of the monitor. Yes, they're usually only visible on full color surfaces, and there are only one or two, but I would ask you to consider how much time your screen is being used for word processing, programming, or editing graphics. The probability is high that your screen is a solid color (white) for a considerable amount of time, during which these dead pixels are definitely noticeable and very distracting.

The warranty that comes with the monitor states that all parts and materials of the monitor are covered for three years if it is deemed defective. Unfortunately, I believe their definition of "defective" does not align with the consumer's.

I would argue that if a pixel does not light, it would be called defective. A monitor is comprised of several pixels, therefore it is considered a part of the monitor. Without the pixels, the monitor would be rather useless, don't you agree?

For whatever reason, defective pixels do not constitute defective material... unless there are several of them. I think it's analagous to having your car painted and returned with a visible scratch, but not being able to have it repainted because the scratch is not "big enough".

If you call Sony to have your monitor fixed or replaced due to bad pixels, they will NOT replace it. Instead they will give you some P.R. line about the incredible technology used to manufacture these monitors (blahblahblah) and therefore it is okay to have dead pixels and even though some don't work, they are not defective. Whatever reason they give you, I guarantee you won't care. According to Sony, your monitor is not defective and it will not be repaired or exchanged (even if you paid $1200 for it).

They will go on to tell you that most people who have dead pixels rarely even notice. I don't know if I believe that. Anybody who is considering spending $1200 on a monitor will surely notice and be annoyed by even one dead pixel.

All you can do is ask to file a complaint with the company, which means your name gets appended to the list of users with defective monitors. This, of course, means absolutely nothing.

I think this kind of treatment is EXTREMELY disappointing, especially considering this monitor retails for around $1150 after tax. The limited warranty does not even mention their policy on dead pixel returns.

I have four other non-Sony LCD monitors (with one of them being over three years old) and NONE of them have dead pixels, which makes me wonder...

I would like to advise buyers to research other vendors and find one with a zero-dead-pixel policy, or perhaps investigate smaller and cheaper monitors. This monitor is definitely eye-candy, but the joy you will experience (as expressed by other new owners) will quickly and painfully end as soon as the dead pixels start appear.

If you do decide to buy this monitor, be sure to get an extended warranty which will allow you to return it under any circumstance. You could be stuck having paid $1200 for a monitor with dead pixels after a few weeks of use.

WOW!!! BEST PURCHASE I HAVE EVER MADE!!!!
I just bought this thing from Amazon and all I can say

is WOW!!!!

This is probably the best purchase I have ever made.

This thing is everything I ever expected and more!! It's

very easy to use as well!

blows everything else out of the water! I have to say,

everyone out there who is thinking of buying this, stop

thinking. I bought it and I am extremely happy with it

the moment I powered this thing on. YOU ABSOLUTELY

wouldn't buy another infocus!
I had a horrible time with this product.I paid $1800 for the LP640, fired it up and it went straight back down citing a fan failure.I generated an RMA with InFocus , sent it back , and they sent it right back to me UNTOUCHED!UGGGHH!! I generated another RMA and they replaced the unit with another but this one also had a fan failure. On the eve of an important company presentation they wanted to charge my credit card $3700 to guarantee delivery of a THIRD unit to get here in time for the presentation. I'm getting my money back on this piece of junk and getting a different, cheaper model. I wonder if they had a bad batch or something....... ... Read more

Just Plain Beautiful!
I bought this monitor for my Apple Power Mac G5 and it has been wonderful to own it. 30 inches of beautiful viewing and this is a perfect screen for playing games on. You really do have to go all out on this one because it costs almost or the same as the Power Mac G5 at around $2,999.99 which is extremely expensive but it really isn't too expensive for a LCD monitor at this size. The styling Apple did on this monitor is similar to the PowerBook and it looks amazing. You can use this monitor on Windows computers too. It has 2-Port USB 2.0 Hub Built-In and a 2-Por FireWire Hub Built-In right in it! Native Resolution of 2560x1600 pixels. I think this works the best of G5's but I guess you can use it on any computer you like. I would recommend this display to you because it has everything you need. Check it out!

Gamer Card Compatibility
Just wanted to let everyone know that it's been confirmed with multiple owners that the Asus V9999 Gamer Edition based on the 6800 (not GT or Ultra) supports the optimal 2560x1600 resolution.

Windows XP with an NVidia Quadro FX 4000
This monitor works great on Windows XP with an NVidia Quadro FX 4000.If it's in your budget, buy it today.There is no downside to this monitor.I have no reservation in recommending it.It is one of the most expensive monitors on the market but I consider it an exceptional value.Everyone who has seen the monitor is stunned by the size, brightness, quality and response time.

This display is a masterpiece...
I just recently bought this display and what an absolute masterpiece.I was using a Samsung 213T and this was to replace that monitor and become my main screen.The 213T is now a second screen for other tasks.If you can afford this monitor, I highly recommend it.

Money well spent, even if you don't quite have it.
I've always been a huge proponent that the display is a critical component of human-computer synergy.The size of the display is essentially the computer to human information bandwidth of your system (and that system includes you).The larger the display the more bandwidth and the more efficient complex tasks can be.Situational awareness is vastly increased by having all relevant panels of design/video/audio/Flash/3D/CAD/software-development apps all visible at the same time.Bumping the CPU speed by another 50% will never provide that kind of efficiency boost - it has to come from having a better visual interface.

And this monitor delivers that via gobs of beautiful pixels.I previously worked on a 23" cinema and going to the 30" made a huge difference.You have space to work, spread out, not have every square inch of your workspace cluttered.You can run Final Cut Pro with the displays at 100%, a huge timeline and have a little iTunes window.A bit of breathing room, finally.

I've worked on dual 21" monitors for video editing before and this 30" display is a vastly different and much nicer experience.Even though you could put together a dual 21" LCD setup for less I'd recommend going the extra distance and getting this display.If you are in any of the fields I mentioned above and can afford this display then it's a no-brainer.If you're in business for yourself and can't quite afford it then stop eating out, put the kids back in public school, sell the car and take public transportation or whatever else is necessary but get this display.It will change your relationship with your computer for the better. ...

Buy Samsung at your own RISK
I bought a Samsung flat-panel LCD television in March, and it the panel went dead in April.I brought it to a one of Samsung's certified dealers for repair, and waited and waited. Finally in May, I was told that the the television panel was indeed defective and couldn't be fixed, so the manufacturer was obligated to replace it under the warranty.It's now September, and guess what, I'm still waiting for the replacement.Buy from Samsung at your own risk.From my own experience, Samsung does stand by their products. For a few dollars more, buy one of the better, more reliable brands.

The last monitor you will ever need
I have had the 240T for over a year now.It is flat out the best monitor one the market today.1920x1200 over DVI gives razor sharp text, the backlight is super bright and completely even and the colors are stunning.It has such a high pixel frequency that there is never any streaking when playing games.HDTV is awesome on it.Hook up a MyHD card with DVI and enjoy full resolution HDTV.
Everyone who comes over to my house cannot believe how nice it is (and most of my friends are computer geeks).
Trust me, 5 minutes after you pull the 240T out of the box you will forget how much you paid for it.

Awe inspiring PC and HDTV home theater combo
Until I put the Samsung 240T on my desk, I had thought I could never have a monitor that was too large.Now I'm not so sure.This monitor's physically wide enough that if I position it as close to me as I'd position other LCDs, I actually have to swivel my head to view the whole screen.And the pixel pitch (size of pixels) is wider than I was used to on my IBM A21P Thinkpad notebook (1600x1200 resolution on 15" diagonal) and on my SGI 1600SW (1600x1024 resolution on 17" diagonal).All in all, the monitor looks better viewed from a little further away than these monitors.The brightness, contrast and viewing angle on this monitor blows away anything else I've ever seen.The panel is absolutely uniformly lit and mine arrived with no dead or stuck pixels. The 1920x1200 resolution is large enough for the highest resolution HDTV (1080, which is 1920x1080 pixels).

Contrary to both Samsung's manual and Radeon's manuals, but in agreement with comments on countless mailing lists, both the Radeon 9000 and 9700 Pro models with 128MB memory were able to drive this monitor at full 1920x1200 resolution with DVI.The difference between DVI inputs and VGA inputs is night and day, with DVI being far superior in terms of sharpness.The S-video inputs are quite reasonable, and TV images look as good on this monitor as on other analog TVs, and provide a means to play VHS from from VCR without needing S-video inputs on my computer. But DVDs look much much better when played on the computer's DVD player through a decent progressive software decoder like WinDVD coupled with the graphics card's built-in rescaler.In fact, it's one of the best DVD images I've ever seen.To get the best sound, I take the computer's S/PDIF digital output directly into my AV receiver, thus bypassing my computer's sound card entirely.

All in all, this is a great monitor for home theater and one of only a handful of monitors that run 1920x1200 resolution.Others include Sony's PremierePro P232 23"; Samsung's replacement for this model, the 241MP 24", which also has component video input; and the Apple Cinema HD 23", which requires a connector dongle for DVI input and has no hardware control or S-video input. The Samsung 210T is an identical monitor feature-wise, and uses the same panel technology and same size pixels, but provides a conventional 1600x1200 aspect ratio.Note that it does not come with the speakers, but then I wanted to use my serious home theater speakers anyway. ...

A+ Huge, Cheap, LCD Monitor (Update... still no problems)
I wrote this review in January. I have deleted it and lost the points just to add some updates because the review is more important to me. The bottom line is that the monitor is even better than I hoped. NO DEAD PIXILS. NO PROBLEMS... like none, zero. I have found this monitor by far the best bang for your buck. As for going pro and paying more. Go pay more if you want a pro LCD monitor. But to be honest I would put that kind of money into a projector for widescreen movies. If you want an LCD monitor for Counter-Strike, Games, Graphics work, then this is what you want. If you want to present your $100,000 car via video to your client using a 19" LCD monitor in the show room, then obviously go spend $1,000 on a good LCD showcase LCD and not this.


Ghosting is there, but to be honest I have seen ghosting on this and the Dell but there is no way to get near no-ghosting effects without spending on pro LCD monitor, period. And we are talking not domestic Sony products that cost a bomb but pro line broadcast products not found on Amazon... i.e Panasonic pro range and Sony Broadcast stuff.

The NEOVO range sells like hot cakes and competitor prices differ vastly on this monitor because you can sell it at three times the asking price. Basically this is a 19" whooper LCD that sits next to 15" Sony monitors (at the same price or this is much less) and makes them look like little monkeys. The 17" pro models are usually twice the price but this big screen just gets snatched up because it is so much more in size and so much cheaper than the item next to it, and get this... chances are no dead pixels (anything less than 6 is acceptable as long as they are all not clumped together or something. AG actually has good quality monitors. I viewed several of these 19" monitors and have found one with two dead black pixels on white and even I would have bought that if it was the only one left. Seeing monitors is a good idea but AG seems like a good bet on-line judging by what I have seen although I must admit the box felt a little loose carrying it.

Turn on any LCD and the room suddenly gets brighter. Same with this model... yes it is an LCD!

The actual screen appears to curve slightly inwards, a nice effect with the 19" resolution quality (1,280 x 1,024). A Pro 256mb graphics card set at full acceleration and something like an MX1000 laser mouse and I am sure even pro graphics users would not complain about the neatness of their work. Gaming-wise you will never look at another monitor the same way again. In terms of graphics, I will say that the 19" pro monitors where really nice but a way more expensive. This Neovo beat most 21" CRT monitors, hands down, but there where some 21" inch CRT screens that could still compete with this at a cheaper price. Something to think about... but slim is in and the LCD is pretty much LCD.

Of course there are some drawbacks, the monitor does not have a perfectly steady base, does wobble a little more than pro models but does stay standing. You would really have to tilt the desk or hit it hard to knock it over. The pixels are also somewhat harsh if you look at the screen closely and you do see the pixels with clear 20/20 vision which means that it is not really high-end at all except for the size price factor.

To be honest the NEOVO F-419 is more like a very high quality 17" LCD monitor on blowup than a true 19" panel.

Unless you are doing extremely pro stuff like large 2 meter x 2 meter graphic prints or telecine 35mm motion picture film CGI which requires higher resolutions like 1600+, meaning popping the extra (triple the price) for a pro 19" model then undoubtedly you will have a more superior 19" LCD with a higher resolution and probably everything else. No one is going to disagree with you there, but those who have spent money on pro 19" monitors are going to want to keep them for at least five or six years minimum at those prices. Next deal next decade? The F-419 is not cheap but let's face it - I can retire it in three years time from now and feel I got some use for it. Would certainly buy AG again.

However the 19" blowup effect of a high quality 17" monitor makes this thing unstoppable except for those with bigger wallets. Viewing high resolution scans is like a new experience. Playing Half-Life 2 just improved the game like x 100 even though the ghosting on this monitor is a little more noticeable than the pro models but beat any 21" CRT hands down because it is LCD.

In short, budget LCD is here. 15" and 17" forget it... why waste the money? Get this 19" or go 19" pro or better for higher sums.

Pros:
- Best buy LCD monitor at this time.
- Gorgeous Price Tag.
- No dead pixels.
- Huge Size.
- LCD

Cons:

- Not a true 19" LCD.
- Probably under par in every department for a 19" LCD except for all working pixels.
- Ghosting a little stronger than the next $100 model but $100 does not buy you no ghosting (however to be honest there is no monitor like this at the price).
- No height extention (might need shelf)

awful monitor
it seems to me that most people that have rated this monitor at five stars have very limited experience in the computer/technology sector. I bought this monitor about three days ago because a frined recomended it to me. This monitor has considerable ghosting when playing games or doing minor graphic work. It also has a very primitive style and feel to it very bland, not at all what i expected. i had never heard of agneovo
now i know why. Anyone reading this review please do yourself a favor DONT buy this monitor unless all you do is simple web browing and text documents. I am returning this monitor back and i am going to purchse a dell "dude im getting a dell", thats the frist thing i should have done, ofcourse the dell monitor is 100 extra but it will be worth it ,,if you need reviews go to computershopper.com they have all the reviews and specs on monitors you will ever need. Finally if youve never heard of a comany or a service its most likely for two reasons one it has just enetered the market(new company) or the company is not reputable and iots services and products are of low quality. have a nice day;;;;;

great monitor at an even greater price
I have this monitor for about 2 weeks now, the 700:1 contrast stats along with the digital input deliver wonderful 19 inch real estate that is great for video's and pictures.
I bought this 19 inch LCD display on "price" but also because I wanted a digital (DVI) connection (it also supports an analog connection as well)and I feel as though I gave up nothing and got a great LCD display at an even greater price.

Excellent Monitor
I was a little nervous about buying this monitor without actually seeing it first. I read the other reviews and took a chance. This is one rockin' monitor. My eyes feel better already. Bright, clear, and crisp are just a few words to describe this unit. I know my wife will want one now that she has seen it working.

It's 25ms response time, not 15ms.Don't be fooled!
I bought this LCD display from Amazon a few weeks ago. It was well packed and no dead pixles on it. As other guys mentioned, it is bright and clear. However, it has a big problem, which is the slow rising time. The product's specification list here is not the same as I found later in agneovo's web site. They advertised a slow 25ms(15ms rising/10ms falling) response time product to be a fast 15ms(5ms rising/10ms falling) response time one. This is really dirty.
When you move the mouse arrow aross a black background, the white mouse pointer becomes brown during the movement. And you can see the black text becomes grey or red text when you scroll a web page like this one. My old Dell 15 never acts like that and it is not supposed to be like that.
However, this should be a good lcd if you do not care about the response time. ... Read more

This is a great monitor
I just got my new V7 monitor and set it up.On paper, the specifications looked great for the price.When I fired it up, the colors and brightness exceeded my expectations.The 14 ms response is fast - perfect for my games.I don't know how they can sell a monitor of this quality for such a great price.

Excelent LCD and great price
Not 1 dead pixel, excelent resolution crisp images and no ghost i absolutly recommend this product, but dont forget to buy the DVI cable they make a lot of diference. Not too heavy and nice control panel.

Excellent Monitor
I've tried several different monitors and the NEC is by far the best.The color and brightness are excellent and the overall design is very classy.I have yet to find a flaw in this monitor and I highly recommend it.You will not be disappointed.

Very Nice Monitor
I received this monitor for my girlfriends PC. It is a replacement for a 6 year old 21" Hitachi CRT monitor. I first connected with standard VGA cable as I was waiting for the DVI cable and after a little set up, I was quite pleased with the appearance on the screen. The menu controls are kinda funky and takes some getting use to them.

Yesterday, I got the DVI cable and what at difference! The clarity is incredible, the color saturation is very good and the text is very legible.

I was concerned about scan frequency as I normally run CRTs at 85 to 100 hertz to reduce flicker and at the 1280x1024 setting the NEC monitor wanted 60 hertz. So I changed the setting to 60 and it is absolutly flicker free.

Except for the OSD controls, this is an excellent moniter, but once things are set up, there should be no need to use the OSD.

Great value 19" monitor
The 1935NXM is a great value 19" monitor.The picture quality is bright and clear.The monitor has 16 msec response time at close to $400 after rebate, a great deal for this screen size.It is also wall mountable!The silver color and blue lighting gives the monitor a modern appearance and looks even better at night.However, some might find the blue lighting on the back of the monitor annoying if sleeping in the same room.The monitor design is very simple, with the bulk of the lcd mounted on a simple base.While common, the design makes the monitor difficult to turn.Also, the features layout is very awkward.The selection menu is configured in a circular layout and one must scroll through either clockwise or counterclockwise to exit, even while simply adjusting brightness or contrast.The menu design is not intuitive and I still have not gotten used to it yet.I prefer to just find acceptable settings and leave it at that.Despite the minor design flaws, the 1935NXM is still a great value 19" monitor.

Excellent.Great picture quality good on all apps tested
In the past, I've not been a big fan of LCD monitors. I always felt they were behind the curve compared to old fashioned CRT displays.

NEC changed my mind. Text is sharp and easy to read, video is clean clear. When browsing the web, colors are vibrant and crisp. The on screen menu takes a little getting used to, but you shouldn't have to use it much since the auto-settings are very good.

I've played several online and offline games at various resolutions, all with good results. ... Read more

High resolution and value!
Purchased this Westinghouse one month ago.Delighted daily by picture quality and detail of high definition programming (720p or 1080i) delivered through DVI cable.DVDs via component cable not quite as crisp and three-dimensional because only 480p, but still theatrical, bright with richly-saturated colors.Standard definition programming delivered through digital satellite via DVI very watchable.Audio adequate, although a surround-sound system is preferable.Remote-control simplistic but fully functional, although codes don't seem to exist for universal remotes.On-screen display menus very intuitive, and offer unusually great amount of control over image (brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, etc.).

This is a monitor -- you must have an external TV tuner (over-the-air, cable, or satellite).I have one pixel (out of 2 million) with a stuck green filter, but it doesn't affect my viewing. ... Read more

THIS IS THE WAY TO GO!!!
If you are looking for an HD-Ready TV, let me say that i was blown away by this one! I'd been searching for an HDTV for almost a year and a half, and when I found this one, i knew the search was over! Not only was i looking for a TV that would be "top of the line" in its technology, ablilities/features (it even has a PC input for computer link-up!), and most importantly its picture an sound quality, i also wanted a TV that would compliment any modern-looking room or apartment with a great looking, modern design. When I got this TV it not only had everything i was looking for in its features and abilities, it was gloriously beautiful in every way! With its stunning picture and design, this HDTV truly brings the "television set" into the 21st century in a big way! This one comes stock with its own bragging rights! I would give this one 6 stars if I could. You can't go wrong with this one my friend, its absolutely amazing! ... Read more

Cool Technology
This product has great technology:

The good parts:
1) You can access three different inputs for Viewing (Cable, Dishor DVD) with prety good quality. As good as your TV
2) You can control the units remotely. Change Channels, turn on/off View the guides, etc from anywhere in the internet. So you can travel with the unit and watch your own TV at airports or other locations. Very cool
3) Access the web via a 2.4 or 5.0 GH 802.11 compatible
4) View your photos from any digital camera storage card (some with adapters.
5) View your e-mails
6) Touch screen technology
7) Capability to capture anything on the screen (very cool)
8) You can also buy the PC software to connect your PC to the Base unit

The Bad
1) A little difficult to get started, but once it is all setup it works very well
2) The range is not very good, it kind of defeats the wireless benefit.
3) The Web browser does not work with every website, like Yahoo and hotmail mail.
4) The IR cable is too short and it seams that you need 2 if you are controlling 2 devices
5) the LF-X5 doe not have a USB port to connect a keyboard the LF-X1 does. It would be nice to have it

Fabulous functionality with some rough edges...
I absolutely LOVE this thing. I've long wanted a wireless TV I could carry throughout the house. I'd toyed around with analog 2.4ghz wireless monitors but the range was very short and other devices (WiFi and cordless phones) interfered. The microwave absolutely wiped the thing out as well. Such interference is NOT an issue with the LF-X5. Run the microwave, browse the net, talk on the phone and you can still have the TV going without skipping a beat.

Note that there's NO difference in functionality between this unit and the larger LF-X1. The X1 has a few more connections and a larger screen but they operate identically.

The picture quality is very good and for what it's doing it's absolutely exceptional and setup for use around the house is very easy. Plug the base into the wall, connect up the cable, turn the display on and you're done! No configuration or networking expertise needed at all. Using it with satellite or a cable box will require some configuration which can be a bit daunting. Reading the manual thoroughly will get you through though.

My only problem with it when it's used around the house is that the range is noticably shorter than when using a standard WiFi access point. I'm not sure if it's using lower power or if it's a matter of a lack of antennae but the range is somewhat lacking.

Outside the house it's another matter. This unit will likely NOT work with a standard broadband connection. It needs at least a solid 384k upstream to achieve decent quality and even 1.5Mbps isn't enough to use the highest bitrates. If your ISP offers high upstream rates this unit will work WONDERFULLY for you.

It's truly novel to be relaxing in a hotel in Sao Paulo after a long day catching up on Nip/Tuck.... being able to do so makes this oddity worth it's weight in gold. ... Read more

Besr monniror thar I have ever had!Awesome!!
I am an sight impaired individual that was using an CRT that was made by AOC.THe monitor was ok but it was causing a lot of eye strain.So, I researched quite a few LCD monitors and I went to some of the major electronics to preview the displays.As I kept researching and previewing many displays my eyes was always affix on the 193p.I was impressed with the contrast, brightness, and color depth.So, I went ahead and purchased it from j&R Electronics. I received it within a week, connected it to my computer and I was even more impressed!I am enjoying every second of use.I highly recommend this oroduct.

None better
This is one of the best monitors at any price, I have mine for 3 months now.
Plays DVD & 3D games without any gosting.
Beautiful design and perfect display, very wide viewing angle.
Full brigtness and contrast adjustment with included software.
Highly recommend.

Don't waste your time with Old Technology
The bottom line - this display is unacceptable for playing video games or watching DVDs!I am currently running with an ATI Radeon 9800 with DVI to this LCD.When stationary, the picture looks great, however the 20ms response time makes Counter Strike unpleasant, and Far Cry nauseating to play.Turning around inside or outside becomes a blur.The walls on either side of a cooridor becomes a blur when running through.Watching DVDs is very do-able, but during fast sequences, especially when the background is spinning quickly you can't make out anything.
Those who reviewed this monitor and said the response time was un-noticable when using the DVI input were wrong.It truly boggles me how they came to this conclusion.This is old technology, and should not be purchased!

I love my monitor.
After reading the reviews on this monitor, and checking other websites, I decided to purchase this Samsung SyncMaster.With the rebates (which I hopefully will receive from J&R) this was an extremely good buy for the quality of this monitor.I can't give the technical input some others have given, but I can say this is all I could want in a monitor.This is the first review I have ever written, but I am so impressed, and thankful for the reviews that led me to make this purchase, that I felt obligated to add my recommendation.

Great Monitor
I recently purchased the Samsung 193P and couldn't be more happy!!!I am very picky when it comes to buying quality products and made sure I did my homework before I bought this LCD...
The product arrived in less than a week with standard shipping and came out of the box with ZERO dead pixles (not very common at all)...There is no color bleed at the corners what so ever...
Crystal clear picture!!!
This is a work monitor, so I wasn't so concenrned with the refresh rate as I would be with a home gaming screen...But I couldn't resist giving it a try...Loaded World of Warcraft and EQ2 (both games very intense graphics) and was pleasantly surprised how great these games looked.There was almost no shading and the screen kept up fine at a 20ms refresh rate...
This screen did cost a bit more than some of it's other comparable competition, but overall I can't stress on how much better this screen was than ALL of them...
Money well spent...

great great great
I have bought many an Envision Monitor, no problems ever.I have used this unit for almost 6 months,no one problem, great color, no dead pixels,Excellent Monitor

High Quality / Low Price
If you are not a professional 2D image or 3D graphics high-end user, if you just want a sleek LCD monitor sitting on your desk for general usage, this EN7410 monitor has the best Q/P ratio (Quality/Price ratio) in current market for the 17" LCD monitor category.
I use it to do my programming, document editing, Internet surfing, some 3D graphics modeling and first phase photoshop touching, I'm very happy with it. Highly recommended.
If you are a high-end graphics user, I recommend at least 19" in size with high color precision.

IMPRESSED BEYOND IMAGINATION
I feel like i stole this monitor for its cheap price. It is absoulutely beautifull. THe picture is crystal clear, bright, and vibrant. It fits beautifully on my desk. No more bulky cluttery mess for me. OOH and its also great for watching DVDs

Well worth it, despite the quirks
Never having personally used a LCD monitor before, I took the plunge and decided on this one. In general I'm very happy with the results. The color, clarity and response time are great! I see almost no difference between this and my old CRT monitor. My fears of a fuzzy picture were unfounded. Though I never realized that you have to be directly in front of a LCD monitor to get accurate color. If you view it from some other side, strange things happen. But this is nothing I can't live with.

There is a strange but insignificant problem. Since I've started with this monitor, I sometimes get Runtime error messages when surfing the internet. That never happened with my old CRT monitor. I can't tell whether it's because of this new monitor. But it's a rare problem, easily brushed aside.

The slim size of the monitor is perfect for my tiny desk. Unlike my original HP CRT monitor, which took up more than half the desk. Now I just have to unload that old behemoth.

Considering the picture quality, price, and size, this is a great buy. But watch out for the shipping. Originally, Amazon.com said they would ship in 1 to 2 weeks. It took them almost a month to ship. I hope you have better luck. Now that Target is handling the shipping, things may improve.

GREAT
I was researching LCD's for awhile, and really wanted a 19", but they are just too expensive. I found this to be a wonderful deal, $179.99 from CompUSA. The monitor has impressive specs, and most importantly a good a warranty from a good brand.

The clarity of text is sharp, and images display vividly. Movies, and games also run great, without any ghosting.

I have two computers, and on the first, I wasn't able to run it it's native resoultion which caused text fuziness, before declaring it defective and returning it, I tried it on my other computer and it works fantastic.

The amount of space I save over my 19" crt, is amazing.
