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!

Cheap LED and LCD Computer Monitors

To be honest, it was a bit difficult for me to choose what I would demand from the cheep LED or LCD monitor. Main reason for that is the fact that it may be cheep, but why you would buy it if it is peace of junk? Of course, there is no point to look for cheapest possible monitor when you will spend time in front of it. So, next monitors that I have decided to choose are cheep but not the cheapest on the market. Those are the ones that are worthy to purchase.

And now, I believe that I'm done talking nonsense, it is time to reveal my first few picks for this article. There will be no practical listing by listing or price, no particular order so all of those are number five or number one. Place is not important at all on this list. So, let's start this with one very beautiful computer monitor.

HP Pavilion 20 xi 20-Inch Screen LED-lit Monitor

As said few lines before, this 20 inch LED monitor is beautiful, at least for me. That is my first impression, although I have black screen in front of me. If you are one of those people that believe that first impression is important then go for it. Price of somewhat more than $100 is ridiculous for a 20 inch display.

When talking about monitor quality and performance, we could say that it has IPS display which means that if is capable to produce bright, vivid image with great accuracy and consistency across wide viewing spectrum (although users state that it is not that bright). It has native resolution of 1600x900 pixels (not full HD), 7 ms GtG response time (not that great for FPS and similar games),

When talking about user experience, hate it or love it, it really depends of what you want it for. If you are looking for good price, then this is a bargain. All in all, pretty good monitor at cheap price.

ViewSonic VA2246M-LED 22-Inch LED-Lit LCD Monitor

I have decided to write a little bit about this one particular model from ViewSonic, mostly because it is worth buying, especially if you have small office or if you do not use speakers much for listening loud music. This monitor comes with integrated speakers, so it is one plus for it. Price is another one as it comes at the price of $120 and that is great for 22 inch LED monitor.

When talking about performance, I will say that this is Full HD (1920x1080 pixel) wide monitor with 16:9 aspect ratio. It has 10M:1 dynamic contrast ratio, automatic adjustment, DVI and VGA inputs (although DVI cable is not included in the package). It is capable of delivering great contrast and vivid image and combined with 5ms response time (I do believe for gray-to-gray) that will ensure smooth playback.

Users tend to prize this ViewSonic monitor, mainly because of its price and low brightness bleeding. No one said that this monitor had dead pixels, so no worry about that. All of them said that it is good monitor for home or office while speakers are not that great as expected. In overall, good full HD monitor at reasonable price.

ASUS VS228H-P 22-Inch Full-HD 5ms LED-Lit LCD Monitor

This article would not be complete if we don’t have ASUS monitor review, not because ASUS is that good, but because ASUS is solid and cheap. This particular model, VS228H-P comes at price of $130. It is really slim, looks good and simple, just the stuff that I like. I'm not that much in fancy stuff on my desk.

When talking about performances, ASUS VS228H-P is 22 inch wide, Full HD computer monitor with 1920x1080 pixel resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio. For the backlight, as you can see from its name, it uses LEDs that deliver great dynamic contrast of 50M:1 powered with ASUS smart contrast ratio. One big plus for this monitor is HDMI port and great 5ms response time.

When talking about user reviews, most of the users prize this monitor and say that there is no much to say against it. Users like design and contrast ratio, fact that it has HDMI port so you can plug in it your headphones. Also they like physical buttons on it. It sands good on the desk without fear that you will knock it down. On negative side, users say that when it goes to standby, the music stops playing. Also, it is not IPS monitor. All in all, for this price it is real bargain, so you can consider it for sure.
