To date, I worked with a iiyama 17 "monitor. This provided a good image and a fleet reaction time. However, my work area was too small, I have to have many windows open at once, particularly in office applications. My budget was a maximum of 300 Euro. I wanted a good, robust monitor with reasonable brightness distribution. The device should also do not reflect, glossy surfaces thus fall right out. I was also happy times and regularly a "games" make a response time of less than 25ms compulsory. Once in persona I some monitors the Lupe had taken, it was found that the current equipment although it pass poppy, the quality in every area but behind my old monitor back stand. brand equipment at ordinary prices showed partly gruesome brightness curves that made me annoyed already in WORD. Others offered contrast automatics that a eyes almost burned out. Also filter sharpness I was allowed to marvel that conveyed the feeling that you would hallucinate. In short: A lot of technical bells and whistles without which one would be better off. There was an Internet search. This time it should be a very down to earth model that would do just that for which it would be there: provide a good picture. Monitors with bright border were preferred. After all, the black edge eyes intently noticeably in addition to prolonged computer work. I came pretty quick to Lenovo. I was the producer as a competitor of Dell well known. Since I knew about the good workmanship of the notebook from the very same house, I ordered spontaneously the Lenovo Monitor. I was not disappointed. Very robust processed unbreakable feet, good brightness uniformity, no annoying filters Nevertheless, or perhaps still a wonderful contrast image. The casing of the monitor is processed very valuable and beautiful plain. (There is indeed the manufacturer - selling design studies I do not need something like that - expensive..) The response time is good for my tests. Whether it is just 5 ms Now, I do not know the value lies in the normal range. A small negative point, there is still: The instructions must be loaded online. In addition, I have still not managed to have saved to move to settings via the OSD display even after source change the monitor. Disturb did me but at no time since I forgive different brightness values via the graphics driver anyway for Desktop and DirectX mode. The default setting is also not particularly extreme elected just a little too bright. This hard on the eyes. For DOS or short Knoppix use, but you can bear the well. Wen disturb these shortcomings, which must subtract one point. But I forgive full 5 points. A very good monitor. I'm not a fan of computer distributors ala Dell or Lenovo, as I like to screw itself and configure. However, this monitor is an example of the (common) good quality store brands of these companies.
