LCD 22/24" 16:10 IPS 700-1000 €

  • Hello, I would like to kindly ask you for assistance to choose the right LCD. I went through various sites and forums, used the buyers and features guide here at prad.de but I still cannot decide. The more I know the worse is to choose the right one.


    My experience from the past:
    My first LCD was NEC MultiSync 1760NX (4 years usage). It was 17" TN. I played quite lot FPS games with this one. I was generally very satisfied with this one. My second LCD was HP w2207h (2 years usage) and I also had HP w2228h and w2229h for short time, those were all rubish.


    My current requirements:
    - primary usage: internet browsing, office work, viewing and basic editing of pictures
    - secondary usage: movies watching, games (FPS)
    - panel: IPS, matt
    - gamut: I think that sRGB would be suitable for me as I am not graphic proffesional and AdobeRGB may have some side effect for my standard usage.
    - 10-bit per color: I think this is not required for me. It would be "over-performed". I do not have have other hardware and software that would benefit from this.
    - aspect ratio / resolution: 16:10 / 22" 1680x1050 or 24" 1920x1200
    - viewing angles: there will be sometime more people watching at this LCD so good viewing angles are required
    - inputs:

    • DVI + HDMI (or 2x HDMI or 2x DVI) - DVI/HDMI for PC VGA and PS3/Xbox360 output
    • analog (e.g. composite) - not a must but my old PS2 would appreciate it
    • displayport - not sure if there is any benefit, so not sure if to require this, my current VGA does not this output, I suppose that my future VGA will have some HDMI or DVI

    - speakers - not required but they may be there (if they are there then HDMI is required)
    - adjustment - good options are required (vertical and also angle)
    - cost - about 700 € (it can be less), maximum 1000 €


    I narrowed the selection to the following models (not all requirements were met, it is all about compromise)


    22"
    - Dell 2209WA
    - LG W2220-P


    23"
    - NEC EA231WMi (I know this is 23" and 1920x1080 but it looks quite good and I have very good experience with NEC, it is an exception that deserved my attention)


    24"
    - Dell U2410
    - HP 2475w
    - HP ZR24w


    I wanted to check also some Eizo display but I did not succeed to find IPS Eizo for my needs.
    I had 22" Fujitsu P22W-5 ECO at home for two days. It was not a bad display but it just did not fit my feelings.

  • I read many reviews and user forums ans narrowed the selection to the following models:
    NEC: EA231WMi (e-IPS, 320 €)
    Dell: 2209WA (e-IPS, 300 €), U2311H (e-IPS, 310 €)
    Eizo: SX2262W (S-PVA, 730 €), EV2333W (S-PVA, 440 €)

  • I can't see an aoption how to edit older post...


    New selection:
    NEC:

    • EA231WMi (e-IPS 1920x1080, 320)


    Dell:

    • 2209WA (e-IPS 1680x1050, 300)
    • U2311H (e-IPS 1920x1080, 310)


    Eizo:

    • SX2262W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 730)
    • EV2333W (S-PVA 1920x1080, 440)
    • S2233W (S-PVA 1680x1050, 500)
    • S2243W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 550)
    • S2433W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 770)

    I am trying to get some reviews for Eizo S2233W and S2243W. Any idea where to search? I looked here at prad.de and at tftcentral.co.uk. I do not want just google as I can get false information.

  • one more selection reduction:


    22”
    Dell 2209WA (e-IPS 1680x1050, 300)


    23”
    Dell U2311H (e-IPS 1920x1080, 310)
    NEC EA231WMi (e-IPS 1920x1080, 320)
    Eizo EV2333W (S-PVA 1920x1080, 440)

  • Dell 2209WA is much smarter choice for u, he got 6ms response (8ms=ghosting) and the most valuable thing is his accurate color (default).
    don't get upset that he is not full HD It is Really less important than his other advantage.
