3 middle price range computer monitors

When I was thinking about computer monitor for myself, size was one issue. Since I'm spending most of my working day in front of it, I have decided to go for 23 inch wide LED IPS monitor. After a year of watching it, I may say that I would be happier with 27 inch, not because bigger is better, but because I really have that feeling. Anyway, a year ago I have bought LG monitor since it was best priced IPS (cheapest) monitor but at this point, I would go for one of next three.

ViewSonic VX2703MH-LED 27-Inch LED-Lit LCD Monitor

On my list for this article, this ViewSonic 27 inch wide monitor is the cheapest. That doesn't mean that it is the worst; that means that it is chosen by me as one of the interesting. When talking about performance and capabilities, this is well equipped device. First of all, as it names says, it is 27 inch wide LED monitor with full HD native 1920x1080 pixel resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio. Moreover, it is capable to sense 4:3 images to not stretch it which may be handy for some people.

Also, it has 10M:1 dynamic contrast ratio for good brightness and amazing image reproduction so image shown will be sharp, vivid while text will be crisp and easy to read. It comes with HDMI and DVI inputs with HDCP, 3 ms response time (I do believe for gray-to-gray) and it has integrated power and built in speakers. Basically, it is good home and great office computer monitor. ViewSonic VX2703MH comes with 100x100mm VESA compliant for wall mount or monitor stands.

After going through tons of user reviews, I have noticed mixed opinions. Most of everyday users state that they are amazed with this LED monitor and they would buy it again while high demanding users state that it is not as good as $100-200 monitors. Well, as expected! For list price of $240 you cant find much better computer monitor for sure!

Dell UltraSharp U2412M 24-InchScreen LED-lit Monitor

Once you decide to purchase monitor, you will find tons in $150-$200 price range, but why would you go for twice as expensive? Because, you are looking for something more, and this Dell UltraSharp U2412M is that "more" that you want! Most computer monitors are nowadays with 16:9 aspect ratio and 1920x1080 pixel resolution, while this one is 1920x1200 resolution and 16:10 aspect ratio and believe me, those 120 pixels make difference once you start using it.

When talking about package, performance and capabilities, I would say that it comes with DVI-D with HDCP connection, 1 DisplayPort, 1 VGA, 1 USB 2.0 upstream and 4 USB 2.0 downstream ports. Also, it comes with 3 year limited warranty. Moreover, it is IPS display that is capable of reproducing true image without blur, with great colors and without over saturation. Additionally, you are able to shift it vertically and see more of the webpage or your document when reading without worry that there will be some kind of color problem. It is just amazing!

Now, users that bought it are, of course, more than satisfied with all those capabilities and fancy stuff that $280 monitor can give you. All of them prize image quality and great color gamut, brightness and sharpness. Well, only thing that they would like to add is card reader. Yes, that would be nice but in overall, for this price you can buy much better. If you have decided that 24 inch display is enough and you are ready to pay less than $300 for it, than there is no much more to be said. Just go for this one!

ASUS MX279H 27-Inch ScreenLED-Lit Monitor

Are you looking for something really special? For a real gem for an affordable price? Well, ASUS MX279H is something special for sure! Beautiful design, something that will blow away anyone when they just look at it. MX 279H is beautiful, ultra slim 27 inch wide IPS display with 178 degree viewing angle. It supports Full HD 1920x1080 pixel resolution with 16:9 aspect ratio. ASUS put extra effort and equipped it with 80M:1 smart contrast technology that will deliver very vivid and live like image quality. Moreover, you will find two 3 watt speakers just in case that you need them.

Let's put aside that great look, when talking about pros and cons of MX279H we can say that it is very stable on its stand, its thin with near to edge matte screen. Color reproduction is more then excellent, image is very bright and sharp with even LED backlight with almost none backlight bleed. Touch controls are fluid and easy to use. On a plus side, I may add that it has dual HDMI input for additional source. On a negative side, I could say that ports on this monitor are aligned perpendicular to the monitor which may bother some users as cable management can be a bit more complicated. Also, if you are a hardcore player, you will notice that it is not the quickest on the market.

In overall, for the list price at the moment of about $310 you can buy many interesting monitors, but this one just sticks out. It is beautiful, 27 inch wide display that you will love for sure. If you are not a hardcore gamer than you will be more than satisfied. There is not much more to be said, this could be next on my purchase list!
