How good is the LG 1930P

  • I have seen this monitor in ebay new for a good price (surplus from a company but new). The ergonomics are fantastic and I wonder how good can be with games and office use.


    I read that the Iyama 481 is one of the best but I think both of them have an S- IPS panel with 25 ms so I presume the performance would be similar so if the LG 1930P has better ergonomics + best looking + a bit cheaper.... ;) but i am a bit concern with the garanty cos I am a second buyer...


    My PC use:


    30% office
    40% internet
    25% fast games
    5% films


    By the way I have bought a Dell 1905FP which I am returning cos of the quality of the colors (washed out and oversaturated browns)

  • I have seen in a forum that the panel could be a CMO/Fujitsu 19" P-MVA ?


    and the iyama is a LG-Philips 19" S-IPS LM190E01-C4 :rolleyes:

  • Hi,


    sorry I´m a bit busy at the moment ;)


    The LG has an IPS panel.


    My opinion about LG is not very good. How many companies do you know who are saying that they sell devices with IPS panels but the end user gets a TFT with VA panel? The workaround ist mostly cheep.


    I think the 481 is a better choice for you, still! ;)

  • Hi again tomatec,


    In the database the 1930P panel is a mva. are you sure the 1930P is an IPS? I know you don't like LG. I agree with you that is not very considering at all with the customers and unforgivable to change the panels of the monitors.


    The main reason why I am not totally convinced about the iyama 481 (it has a LG-philips S-IPS panel, isn't it?) is the poor ergonomics, specially the lack of height adjustment (I used the Dell 1905FP for 2 weeks and from now on ergonomics is very important for me ;)). I am also a bit reluctant in buying a monitor which is been in the market for more than 14 months and its difficult for me to believe that IPS panels didn't improve at all in the last year.


    I can believe after 1 month looking for the perfect 19 LCD I still without find it.... ?(
