5.0 out of 5 stars Best deal on a 17" LCD, December 17, 2002
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Alaska L7EH 17" LCD Monitor with Speakers (Electronics)
My main goal in buying an LCD monitor was to reclaim all the desk space my CRT was taking up. After looking at a number of models, I decided that value was more important to me than anything else. The GVision is among the cheapest, if not the most cost-effective 17" LCD on the market. The price point of this model is lower than many 15" LCDs, and it offers additional features like built-in speakers.

Sure, you can get a better monitor, for example a Sony or a Viewsonic, but it will cost you 1 1/2 to 2 times more. And despite the price, this unit doesn't compromise quality. No dead pixels, good viewing angles all around, and a crisp, bright screen at the native 1280x1024 resolution.

This monitor also has a superbly small desktop footprint. Sure, all LCD monitors will save space over a CRT, but the GVision's oval base gains a couple inches of footprint savings over comparable monitors.

The built-in speakers don't produce a lot of sound, and they are a bit tinny. But if computer sound is important to you, you'll probably want to invest in a separate amplified speaker system anyway. For me, I just wanted to get rid of my ugly accessory speakers and clear some desk space. These built-in speakers did the trick.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than expected!, February 19, 2003
This review is from: Alaska L7EH 17" LCD Monitor with Speakers (Electronics)
I made this purchase thinking "I'll pay less, but I'll get less quality.."
However, I was proved wrong when I actually used it!

Praises:
(1) The actual viewable area is 17" (and not 16" like CRT monitors)
(2) Colors are accurate. (My Dell LCD in comparasin doesn't have enough color saturation)
(3) RGB/Power cords were seperate, and NOT built into the unit (as other manufacturers may do, which I detest)
(4) No drivers/CD/software required!
(5) Built-in speakers
(6) Very bright (almost too bright, but adjustable if necessary)
(7) crisp display/text (WinXP ClearType looks great)
(8) Looks great at 1280 x 1024
(9) Includes all necessary cables
(10)Tilting screen for optimized viewing angle
(11) NO dead pixels! (I specifically checked)

Complaints:
(1) Pixel Clock needed some adjustment to stabilize the edges of screen text/lines/images (see below)
(2) Built-in speakers were a bit 'muffled', but otherwise okay

In regards to the review by 'paul' on Feb 10, 2003:
Use the adjustments below to fix the "electrified" look on everything. The Pixel Clock was the only thing I needed to adjust (to about 70 on the scale)

Overall, I think I've made a great purchase for an excellent price! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this GVision (KOGi) to family/friends/co-workers/etc

5.0 out of 5 stars Gvision L7EH 17" Great Deal, Great Product !... Buy, December 7, 2002
This review is from: Alaska L7EH 17" LCD Monitor with Speakers (Electronics)
Just received my first LCD screen and for [money](after rebates) this IS the BEST DEAL AROUND !
I was a little worried, not having made much shopping around,(Very little info available on the Screen on teh WEB) but decided to go with this one after having checked a "LIVE" one at my local COMPUSA Store (Which by the way had it for [money] plus Tax after rebates (I was just attracted going for the No Tax advantage of Amazon and Free shipping) I got my screen after only 7 days after my order ! GREAT !
And the good thing...No dead pixel, working great at 1280x1024 (native resolution) very sharp screen (amazing at that price, but remember that a few month ago this was priced 700$ and over ! Not a cheap screen like other companies !)
With the expection of the look (not as slim as near competitors) THIS IS THE SCREEN FOR ALL OF YOU !
I WOULD DO IT AGAIN !

A LAST THING: If you think the weakness it it's response time (mentioned ~40ms in teh user manual compared to 30ms on-line) don't worry for fast computer games...NO trace of blur there (one of my other worries)

SO AGAIN, IF YOUR LOOKING TO UPGRADE YOUR BULKY, ENERGY CONSUMMING MONITOR, DON'T GO FURTHER. YOU FOUND WHAT YOU WANTED.

(I also even got a answer within 2 hours from their sales office about some unclarity of teh scanning frequencies 60Hz-85Hz which by the way is irrevelant for a LCD versus a Monitor)
