3.0 out of 5 stars Good -- If you get one with no dead/stuck pixels., August 3, 2007

Adam Conover - See all my reviews

(Disclaimer, I actually purchaed this monitor from a "big-box" retail store recently. I saw that Amazon sold it too, so I thought I'd give it a review here).

I'd actually give this monitor a 4 star rating if it wasn't for the fact that the first one I picked up had a dead green sub-pixel. A small issue (and barely noticeable which most usage) but with doing software development and a lot of technical writing, it was annoying. I exchanged it for another identical monitor and carefully inspected it for dead/stuck pixels and it was ok.

The Picture is bright and crisp (at least with DVI, I have not tired VGA). The brightness adjustment is actually quite nice as I do a lot of work at night in a dimly lit office; so its nice to be able to turn the brightness way down -- a feature that a lot of other LCD's seem to lack. The 5ms refresh is quite adequate for game play as well.

This could easily be a 5 star monitor simply based on value if the quality control was a bit better and the off-axis viewing was improved a bit. (Sitting directly in front of it is fine, but I think the 160 degree viewing angle is a bit exaggerated... at least in terms of "useful viewing angle".

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware: Found dead pixels on (4) units, August 3, 2007

Shopper Proper "cheap but selective" (Lawrence, KS) - See all my reviews

I have purchased a pair of G918w1 from Best Buy. Each one had at least one dead pixel. After going through 4 of them decided to return and spend more on a higher quality one. In all cases dead pixels were in the right bottom part, sometimes in the corner sometimes closer to the middle.

(REAL NAME)   

My monitor had no problems.I had got mine in Best Buy for a $130. ( Supposed to be 150 but i was going for an ACER monitor for 130 so they decided to give me 20$ off this one). Being this is kind of a budget type monitor, i got the 4 year warranty. As soon as i hooked it up to my computer via VGA, it was amazing, the picture was supurb (at of course at 1440*900). It came with both VGI and DVI cables (each being abt. 3 feet). I diddn't need the VGI because i already had them. The DVI I used for my ps3 (via HDMI-DVI connector)and inputs at 720p and 1080i which was also great on the monitor. Overall, this monitor was and still is great. I dont know about the other reviews about the dead pixels but I think you should buy a warranty just incase it breaks
