Stylish BLACK 19" LCD monitors.. which brand to go with?
 

I wanna buy me some monitors, pronto!

Which brands should I look into? Samsang, Sony?

:helpme

bumpsssssssss

I like Sony and Sharp. Never had troubles with mine from there

Sony

i don't remmber what kind of model i have but it's pretty stylish and black

Dell, Iiyama

NEC have some hot ones.

I just bought a 19 inch Samsung LCD, 1280x1024 native with a nice 8 ms response time. Model is 930b. Paid about $400.00 at best buy.

I'd love a Samsung but they don't seem to sell any black models (at least in not in the UK that is).

iiyamas are nice, sporting 2 silver ones here

i have a samsung 193T and i love it

That sucks, the 930b is black(hence the 'b'), have you tried searching for that model specifically?

Am using the Hyundai L90D+

stylish? its a monitor...not clothing.

If I have to look at it all day I might as well buy something that pleases the eye. :winkwink:

I just got my Viewsonic G90FB CTR monitor and it rocks big time !!

If you do graphics, get a CRT !

I'm partial to Viewsonic. Great support and "stylish" too! :thumbsup

LG L1980Q

I like samsung better then nec too .. :pimp cool screen :thumbsup

Samsung hands down.. make sure it has a digital input.

I've been through a lot of brands.. NEC, Samsung or Dell.

Best value for your money. :thumbsup

They don't sell them in the UK. :(

I hadn't looked into LG's yet but this one sure looks great. Thanks for the tip. :thumbsup

Hmmm finaly a question in my field :P right now one of the best 19" is the samsung ( cant recall the model num) with a contrast ratio of 1000:1 and 8ms refresh rate. Folowed by the NEC 19" with 900:1 and 8ms ( although this one has some issues wiht out of the box pixel burns) Yup beeing a tech in best buy helps :P if you got any questions or if you want an advice either on a pc or a screen hit me on ICQ : 220-210-965

i bought 2 19" dells and love em
about $600 total for both

Thanks man! Appreciate it alot. Maybe I should go for a silver Samsung instead of forcing a black monitor on myself. Too bad they don't sell any black Samsungs in England but it's more important that the quality is good. :thumbsup :thumbsup

thats what i have. here is the link.

ive had this one for 10 or 11 months and i love it.

View don't you try View sonic. It's a nice one..

move out of the 3rd world country ;)

you can also go with this one if you want something a little bigger.

however, i DEFINITELY suggest getting a widescreen. they're sexy.

iiyama or Viewsonic should be your choice, take a look at their models

btw, i have iiyama LCD 17" from more than a year. I have never seen better LCD monitor till now

I just looked at the Dells and they are lovely but neither of them seem to have DVI?

they both should. i bought the 20.1 inch model and it has dvi. surely the 24 inch model does as well.

go for the Samsung Brand

I have a Samsung 910t. It's great!

SSP just make sure that you ration is not lower then 600:1 and you refresh not more then 12ms. As for a LCD bigger then 19" it might be a hastle since the resolution is still quite low and the contrast along with the refresh rate aren that good either.

Sony, Dell

My Sony has some style :)

i have a couple samsung syncmasters
make sure you get a low response time though. 12ms or less.

Make sure that it has a digital video input too. Mine only had the VGA cable. I'm not a computer expert and I bought what looked cool and looked like a good deal to turn out it's not the latest tech.

I have a BenQ 8ms LCD.
To be honest it works great for office related tasks, viewing images, web pages ETC,
but sucks for video related work.

So I still prefer my 22inch CRT for that.

There is only one top monitor right now. Its a viewsonic and it has a 4ms response time. Fastest response time for any LCD on the market and its only about $450. Of course if you don't care a shit about response time then it might not be for you but this monitor is bright, crisp and has great colors.

Damn, that Sony one looks hot!
