Are you a tech-savvy urban dweller? AOC would like to have a word. The budget TV builder has a trio of new HD "Envision" LCDs in miniscule sizes ranging from 19-inches to 32-inches. The L19W861 starts 'em out at $299 and is designed to double as a computer monitor with its 1440 x 900 resolution. The 26-inch L26W861 and 32-inch L32W861 both sport a less exciting 1366 x 768 resolution, but equally compelling price points at $499 and $599, respectively. All three displays offer HDMI, PC input with audio and ATSC / Clear QAM tuners.

It's been a tick since we've seen anything new from AOC, but today the outfit is introducing a new bargain-bin LCD HDTV in its Envision series. The 42-inch L42H761 features a 1080p panel, twin HDMI ports, S/PDIF digital audio out, a PC input (with audio), digital ATSC / ClearQAM tuner, 172-degree viewing angles, 3-D comb filter and "color enhancement / noise reduction features" sure to treat your eyes right. All wrapped up in a glossy, sleek black enclosure, the set dons a MSRP of just $1,049.99, and if history has anything on the present, we'd guess you can find it around for a good bit cheaper than that.

EPI's Envision-branded monitors don't exactly do a whole lot to distinguish themselves from the pack, but the company sure is cranking 'em out these days, with it now adding two more reasonably-spec'd (and reasonably-priced) models to the lot. Those include the 19-inch Envision G917w1 and the 22-inch Envision G2219w1, the former of which boasts a 1440 x 900 resolution and a rather impressive 3,000:1 contrast ratio, while the later packs the usual 1680 x 1050 resolution and a slightly more common 1,000:1 contrast ratio. Otherwise, you can expect HDCP-capable DVI ports on each, along with a 5 ms response time and full compliance with Energy Star and ROHS standards. Look for both to hit in April, with the 19-incher running an even $200 and the 22-inch model setting you back $270.

Envision's 22-inch G218a1 display probably didn't turn a lot of heads when it was only at Best Buy, and something tells us the non-exclusive G218c1 won't capture much more attention, even with the addition of a 1.3 megapixel webcam and integrated microphone. The anonymous black design hides the same internals as the a1: 1680 x 1050 resolution, 700:1 contrast ratio, 5ms response time, VGA and DVI-D inputs, and a set of built-in stereo speakers, but the price has been raised to $330. Available now, as are several better and cheaper panels.

All three units sport a 1,366 x 768 resolution, eight-millisecond response time, ATSC / Clear QAM tuners, integrated speakers, a headphone jack, S/PDIF port and a glossy black finish. On the high(er)-end, we've got the 42-inch L42W761, which features a 1,200:1 contrast ratio, twin HDMI inputs and a respectable $999 pricetag. The 32-inch L32W761 differs from its big bro by offering up a 1,500:1 contrast ratio, while the 26-inch L26W761 musters an 800:1 CR. These two will ring up at $649 and $479, respectively, and are available as we speak from a number of fine retailers, but if you've got your eye on the 42-incher, you'll be waiting till the 23rd -- yeah, Black Friday -- to take one home.

The 24-inch G416 features a 1,920 [the firm's website claims 1,900, odd] x 1,200 resolution panel, five-millisecond response time, 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 400 cd/m2 brightness, DVI / VGA ports and 160-degree viewing angles. Yeah, sounds like a real yawner, but then again, it can be found right now for around $400 (after rebate), so at least it won't break the bank too badly, right?

Envision certainly cranks out a lot of cheapo displays, but the company's latest 20-incher, the G2016wa brings quite a bit to the table for $240. The 1680 x 1050 display features a 5ms response time, 3000:1 contrast ratio, VGA and DVI with HDCP inputs, and built-in stereo speakers. Unlike Envision's previous Best Buy-only arrangement, this bad boy should be popping up all over starting right now, so those of you still rocking those grubby CRTs have no excuses left.

Envision's latest duo of LCD HDTVs aren't apt floor anyone with cutting edge extras, but they do manage to pack enough features to satisfy a large chunk of those scouting a new 32-incher. Up first is the L32W661, which features a 1,366 x 768 resolution, 1,200:1 contrast ratio, eight-millisecond response time, 500 cd/m2 brightness, 178-degree viewing angles and an integrated NTSC / ATSC tuner that supports Clear QAM. Furthermore, the set boasts built-in 16-watt speakers, two HDMI sockets, a pair of component / S-Video / composite jacks and a S/PDIF audio output. For those only needing a single HDMI port, the L32W698 (shown after the break) is available for the same price, but it sports a debatably sexier frame.

The widescreen LCD sports a 700:1 contrast ratio, 5ms response time, resolutions up to 1680 x 1050, VGA, D-sub and DVI-D inputs, and a set of built-in stereo speakers. Best Buy is selling the monitor exclusively for the "bargain-basement" price of $279.99, which will undoubtedly have you scratching your head, since you can get monitors of comparable quality for considerably less.

Just in case you still haven't located a "Vista-certified" LCD you're comfortable with, Envision is hoping one of its three latest will hit the spot. The 17-inch H1781 sports a 1,280 x 1,024 resolution, five-millisecond response time, wall-mount support, 300 nits of brightness, 700:1 contrast ratio, 170-degree viewing angles, and a VGA input to boot. The 19-inch rendition (dubbed the H1981) boosts a bit larger screen but manages to keep all of the same specs found in its smaller sibling, while the widescreen G918W1 (pictured after the jump) ups the resolution to 1,440 x 900, the contrast ratio to 800:1, and adds an HDCP-compliant DVI port. Of course, all three of the units feature a relatively unsexy frame, but considering the modest $199.99 (H1781), $219.99 (G918W1), and $229.99 (H1981) pricetags, we suppose there's not too much room to grouse.
