Re: The 22" (and larger) LCD Thread

I've been considering to upgrade my screen for some time and the LED options seem like a decent route to go, however I am looking for a LED screen that has a VESA mount on it. Any idea where I can find such a model??

First choice would be a Samsung (obviously), but I'll consider other brands...

It seems the only LG LED with a wall mount is the E2341-V model and it doesn't seem as if it is available in SA?

The other options I have are:
Viewsonic VX2450wm
Benq G2420HDBL
Benq GL2440HM

Does anybody have experience with these makes and where will I be able to purchase them?

At the end of the day, I don't think it matters TOO much what brand you go for. Obviously Samsung is the best option, but as long as the screen has what you're looking for, why not?

I suppose the PX2370? How many 23-inch LEDs does Samsung have? They'll probably all have the same specs anyway.

Does anybody have experience with Philips monitors? Finally found a 23" LED with a VESA wall mount, the Philips 234EL2SB!!

Any feedback on this monitor and Philips in general will be greatly appreciated. Also any advice on where I can buy from...

If it's got full HD and 2ms with a decent price, I don't see any reason not to go for it. You try the online shops?

Go for the BX2450... shouldn't be too much more expensive.

So what do you guys think of the LG Flatron E2340?
I got one for my birthday- my previous monitor was a Samsung 2053BW HD ready and it was on the fritz, it's going in for repair work under warranty.

Comparing this new full HD LED to the previous one- all I can say is wow! :D

If my brothers monitor is anything to go by, do not buy a syncMaster P2250 as his sort of packed up(still trying to open it so that I can fix it) a few hours ago and it was bought in December :?

I've decided to hang onto my P2770H. The picture quality on the BX2450 is disappointing.

Just don't see that much of a difference. The best LED screen I've seen is the XL2370. The BX2450 just doesn't do it for me.
