22 inch widescreen

Recommended Posts

so.. I'm buying a 22 inch widescreen as external sceen for my lappy to use for some photoshop/3D modelling/watching mouvies :P

 

There are a lot of options in the same price region (250-350 euros) which seem to have the samespecifications; but I guess numbers don't tell everything; and I'd also like to buy some good stuff that 'll last as long as possible; so any of you who has one of these or knows about their quality can leave me some hints

 

these are the options:

 

liyama Pro Lite E2200WSV-B1 264,26 €

Packard Bell Maestro 221w 277,14 €

Acer AL2216Wsd 277,33 €

belinea 2225 S1W 278,08 €

Fujitsu Siemens Scaleoview L22W-2 279,13 €

benq FP222Wa 292,50 €

Fujitsu Siemens Scenic E22-1WGL 303,47 €

belinea 2230 S1W 304,75 €

Fujitsu Siemens Scaleoview L22W-3 307,00 €

acer X222W 316,55 €

liyama Pro Lite E2200WS 317,67 €

philips 220WS8FB 323,25 €

philips 220WS8FS 323,32 €

acer AL2223W 329,68 €

samsung 225BW 330,56 €

lg L226WTQ-SF 344,95 €

 

Personaly I like the lg L226WTQ-SF most (but that's based on its looks only I guess :P) so i ask myself if it's worth the extra price..

 

any advice is welcome!

I think all 22" LCDs are using TN-Film panels so quality wise I think they all should be about the same. I only looked at 2 models before purchasing mine. The Samsung 226BW and the Dell E228WFP. The design of the Samsung is nicer but it was also RM300 more expensive than the Dell (RM899). In the end I bought the Dell. I'm quite happy with the Dell.

 

btw RM is Ringgit Malaysia.

I would not buy a Fujitsu Siemens because I heard from a TFT Forum that they are lagging.

And they said that the Acer AL2216Wsd is a good one, and there were a lot of geeks in that forum.

Personally I would go with the Acer AL2216Wsd, it's cheap, good and looks nice.

I have the acer AL2216W connected to my hackintosh, the screen is fantastic, but keep in mind i'm moving from an old 19" crt that used to electrocute me at random..

 

No blurrieness, colours are exceptionally crisp edge to edge, the black bezel is nice

res is 1680x1050 which is well supported on my hack running connected via dvi on the 7300gt

 

cons:

 

the screen tilts only about 15 degrees, it does not raise or lower

 

If you can live with that, its a great panel.
