Viewsonic VX2260WM 22-inch LCD Monitor Review


Tue 2009-01-06 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan
bit-tech have just reviewed the new Viewsonic VX2260WM, a 22-inch LCD monitor which features a 'Full HD' 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Here's what they had to say:

"In truth, it's the sort of visual faux pas you usually have to try very hard to spot, but just occasionally it can throw up distracting artefacts along the edges of moving objects, particularly in games. Still the good news with the VX2260WM is that you have the option of turning Ultra Fast mode off if it is giving you gyp. The Advanced mode is still extremely rapid and suffers from no visual artefacts.

So, Viewsonic's first foray into the 1080p 22-inch segment is pretty solid. It's certainly one of the better TN panels we have seen, it just pips Iiyama's slightly cheaper model for image quality and physical desirability and adds a few useful features, including HDMI, to boot. More importantly, that 1080p native resolution looks fantastic on a 22-inch panel, delivering eye-popping detail along with generous desktop real estate. Is it worth the extra £20 over the Iiyama? In a word, yes."


Although this monitor features a slightly unorthodox resolution for a PC monitor, it is arguably a more attractive resolution than the traditional 1680 x 1050 that is found on most 22-inch monitors. Is it also good to see that this new breed of 16:9 widescreen displays are relatively affordable and have great response times as well.
