Of course, this is not a high-end monitor à la Eizo; so what does it cost loose that three or four times. But who does make layouts, designs, RAL color correction and image editing for professional print media in the home office? I'll keep this short: (1) The T220 is beautiful, slim and cool with piano lacquer appearance; it differs from the soothing unit Beige or -Mausgrau the most flat screens. (2) My copy has the midst of his million-pixel LCD no single faulty - even though he may have a handful of dropouts according to the specifications in the industry. (3) completely silent. (Many TFTs and LCDs produce a slight but annoying in quiet rooms buzzing.) (4) power supply is located inside the unit; you have no external brick to hide somewhere - or over it stumble. (5) power consumption nearly minimal: 45 W (measured) in operation, less than 0.3 W in sleep mode. The 24-inch CRT, the power and he makes out of work (4: 3; the T220 is 16:10) consumed each twelvefold to juice so that the T220 is in an operating time of 10 hours per working day in a good year has paid nearly even. (6) Ergonomic and feel up to date: For a short time of getting used to, but awesome. For every application and every room there are selectable presets, adjust the brightness and contrast of the display to use ergonomically and ambience. (A few are actively apply because the screen anyway always optimally comes;. But out there are certainly some who love this pampering * be *) (7) 2 ms response time make DVDs and games for real-time cinematic experience, unless, of course, puts a compatible graphics card in the computer. (8) The advertised contrast ratio of 20,000: 1 is of course pimped electronically, rather virtually; the purely physical is high 1000: 1 But even this value one turns, as well as the brightness, like 100% to about 80% down because full Lotte appears simple. (9) The supplied and constantly upgedatete Software provides the Freak unimagined adjustment and gimmicks. Few are they really need, because the presets are almost too much. But we managed to be lovers will find. (Full Vista compatibility of the software has not yet been given, but will follow.) (10) completely uniform illumination of the screen, otherwise enjoyed only ThinkPad TFTs, as the were still produced by IBM itself, came from Scotland and were as noble as sündteuer ... (11) Three years full warranty free house, with a replacement unit. For me new and posh, but maybe there's something also from other manufacturers. (12) Conclusion: Pure impulse buying via Amazon, after volatile Screening of Online Test reports (well, we know how independent the PC press is, right?) Opted for the T220. After a week still confident as the day to have bought something good.
