LG isn't making any promises about saving the planet with this one, but those looking for a no-frills LCD monitor could certainly do a lot worse than its new 22-inch W2271TC model, which boasts some decent enough specs and an "affordable" but as yet unspecified price tag. Headlining that spec list is a promised 20,000:1 "Digital Fine" contrast ratio, which certainly stands out from the otherwise ordinary 1680 x 1050 resolution, 5ms response time, and 300 nits brightness, even it may not actually be all that noticeably different from a monitor with a less attention-grabbing number. You'll also get some built-in speakers and an integrated webcam, which apparently even boasts some of that nifty face-tracking technology, though we're going to go out an a limb and guess that the entire monitor doesn't keep moving to face you.
i heart TN garbage
If its a TN panel (and 99.99% chance that it is -- seeing as how all but about two 22" panels are), then it could have a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio, and yet it would still be garbage.
....because tilting the picture takes it to a whole new level of coolness.
we have a winner
if ( TN == ePanelTechnology )
{
bBuyOne = TRUE;
}
else
{
bBuyOne = FALSE;
}
i have a bug report for you
Dude you're like so knowledgeable of computers and stuff, garsh. I bet you can read The Matrix.
or the other way round...
oops!
my monitor has a contrast ratio of 60,000:1 when I pull the plug vs being on!!!
Don't know why or how, but LG manages always to sell top notch monitors & TVs for the price of no-name knock-offs
