Customer Reviews

Good Screen, but watch out for the "pixel policy"!
This product is spot on... but I received it with one dead pixel.
Got in contact with the company, and there's nothing that can be done!
They have a "Pixel policy" whereby you have to have at least 4 dead pixels or 2 within close proximity to be able to get a working screen.
Yes, it's only one pixel, but when you're working on graphic design, or Photoshop it can be THE most irritating thing in the world.

I would very much like to see this policy change and companies look after their customers.

"Digital Components Ltd" was no use at all in helping me sort out this problem, they simply fobbed me off with a phone number to LG.

I still love my new screen, but I am very disappointed. We shouldn't be punished for putting faith into a company that doesn't look after it's customers as well as it should.

Great monitor
Bought this 22" monitor as a replacement for a Samsung 19", the difference in scale is the most striking thing when first using it. The monitor itself is extremely slick, black with a very slim bezel. The 'movie' mode jacks up the contrast to the advertised 5000:1 ratio with pretty amazing results. The whites and blacks are incredibly vivid. The monitor only has standard vga/dvi inputs and not a great deal of extra features but is pretty much industry leading in terms of response time/ contrast ratios and is an excellent buy.

Excellent monitor (average for the Xbox)
My 4 year old 17" Acer 4:3 TFT was redeployed recently. The LG was bought to either 1) plug in to my PC to replace the Acer 2) replace the 30 month old 19" Samsung SyncMaster 940MW that's attached to my Xbox 360. I was surprised when I decided the Samsung would stay with the Xbox. The LG looks great. It's slim & light and looks very smart next to the PC. Resolution is excellent (on XP) and I have no dead pixels. Contrast is very good even without resorting to dynamic mode (the f-engine). Ignoring the usual viewing angle limitations of TFT, blacks are black and whites are white. The monitor comes with few buttons to play with but does exactly as intended. So, why the decision to keep the 19" monitor on the Xbox? Backlight bleed. The Samsung leaks a bit but the LG is worse. In a well lit room, working on office apps or the web, you'd never know. Dim the lights and hit a dark scene and the halo of light around the screen becomes irritating. Despite the increased screen size, contrast, response time & pixel count the LG doesn't make swapping the Samsung worthwhile. The LG has 1050 lines, not the 1080 needed for full HD and the 16:10 aspect does not display a 16:9 output without distortion. I was aware of this before buying so was neither surprised nor disappointed. In the fullness of time I'll replace the Samsung with a 1080 pixel unit with 1:1 mapping. In the meantime, both the Samsung and the LG do an equally good job of scaling (and both are FAR better than the 576i dsplayed by a "normal" TV). While not deemed a worthy replacement screen for the Xbox, the LG is undoubtedly a much better PC monitor. I have no regrets about the purchase and if you intend it as a PC monitor I'm sure you'll find your £160 to be well spent.
