Strengths: Exceptional color reproduction and viewing angles.

Weaknesses: None

Summary: This monitor performs great ? outstanding colors (8bit panel), almost no back-bleeding,crisp, sharp, very well tuned right of the box. You won't go back to TN panel once you see the benefits of S-PVA. Every input that you can possible need is there. Very nice ergonomics and on screen controls. Zero dead pixels! I am very pleased with this purchase and with the Cost Central service. The monitor came in 2 days with standard ground shipping! This was my first purchase with Cost Central, but I definitely will come back since I am very satisfied with their service and competitive pricing. Well recommended!

Strengths: High Contrast Front Controls Multiple Connection Options

Weaknesses: Shiny Black ("Piano") Bezel is not to my liking. Flimsy-feeling support & rotation Overly bright until adjusted

Summary: Tested and found colors responded correctly, no dead nor bright pixels, uniform brightness throughout. A bit confusing to set-up and auto-adjust, but eventually found the trick. Could be simpler. Performing very well, although I did not "calibrate" it.

Strengths: Great color, solid performer, no dead pixels, no hums or buzz

Weaknesses: None so far.

Summary: I am a photo enthusiast so I was looking for better than average color representation and this screen delivered. S-PVA panel, with 8 bit color as opposed to the 6 bit TN panels justifies a higher price and Cost Central beat all the competition. Delivery was quick and the product was brand new and in excellent condition.

Strengths: Overall picture quality; wide screen; native HDTV (1080p) display; all HDTV inputs

Weaknesses: Looks a bit "plastic" around the edges. It's not a "bargain" monitor. Requires at least a 8800GT (or equivalent) to display all the colors and textures at maximum resolutions and settings.

Summary: The 6msec GTG timing is good enough for fast gaming. The improved backlighting makes the displayed colors brilliant. The advertising doesn't emphasize all the HDTV inputs (HDMI, composite, component, Svideo) nor the PIP (yes, Picture In Picture) capability that lets me watch football while gaming, but it's all there. If you can afford it, this monitor is the one to get. Nothing on HDTV, Blu Ray, or HD DVD exceeds its native 1920x1200 resolution so everything displays dot for dot and pixel for pixel. Oh, and did I tell you how much better the display gets when playing WoW (World of Warcraft) or VG:SoH (Vanguard:Saga of Heroes)? I didn't? Well, rats !!! :D
