LG W2040T 20-Inch Widescreen 720p LCD Monitor (Black)

 (4 customer reviews)

This monitor is great quality and gets the job done. The monitor is attractive looking, and it is piano black.

The bezel has a transparent outer trim, but those who want to have a near-seamless multi monitor setup should look at something else.

The resolution is 1600x900, not 720p like the description says (it is higher than 720p). This monitor can use VGA or DVI cables.

This monitor can also allow you to select if you want to keep the original aspect ratio of some games that only display at 4:3 or 16:10, or you can have the monitor stretch them across the screen (which looks ugly). This is good feature that lacks in many other widescreen monitors, but not this one.

The menu system is controlled by 4 unlabeled buttons. The button labels appear onscreen as you navigate the menu.

Pros:
Selectable Aspect Ratio
70,000:1 Conrast
1600x900
Decent Price
East to navigate menus.

Lol (Laugh Out Loud). All of the buttons except the power button, don't have markings. Just push any of the 5 buttons, 6 total with the 1 being power, and the on-screen menu pops up just above the buttons on the screen. Arrows point down to each button describing what it does. I guess its done to improve the sleek? I don't know, it works for me. The "on" light on the bezel looks cool as well. If its distracting, you can disable it in the menu. However, the viewing angle isn't very well if you are using it as a wide-view monitor. It gets yellow on one side and that stuff. But I don't seem to have an issue with it. It works good for...Read more

they work great, no complaints. I bought two of them for a dual set-up. no extreme dimming from severe angles, some, but nothing that makes the screen un-readable.. etc. Had them for about 2 months now.
