This review is from: NEC MultiSync 1560V-BK 15" Flat Panel LCD Monitor (Personal Computers)

I compared lot of 15" & 17" LCD at the market, here's some of my suggestions:
1. Don't settle anything less than 400:1 contrast ratio (higher the better)
2. Look for the response time, range is vary, the lower the better
3. NEC & Viewsonic will be my choice...Samsung's quality is not that impressive as some websites described
4. Dead pixel(s), more than 3 is unacceptable, but I will say one is more than enough...(Look at the return policy before you buy) If you can't live with it, you better shop at the local dealers so you can test it before you buy.
5. The quality of this LCD is good for daliy use, you won't disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Buying LCD thro' web, April 20, 2003

This review is from: NEC MultiSync 1560V-BK 15" Flat Panel LCD Monitor (Personal Computers)

I did the research before I bought this product, my choice finally came up between Viewsonic and NEC. A 17" brand name LCD was cost (at least) 50% more compare with a 15" one; so if you want a LCD with tight budget (like me), NEC 1560V is a solid product at this category and at the right price. Also, don't buy the 1550V since it's the older model with [$] difference. This is not for serious gamers, of course, if you read the spec. careful enough.
Amazon.com offer a even better price after I placed the order [$$$] just few days later at [$$$]....(can I get [$] back?) and I found their (electronic) products' prices change frequently just like seafood market...
The product arrived one week later at good shape, just plug in the power cable & video cable, for a few seconds the screen was on with sharp image automatically. I soon found a dead pixel near the upper left corner -- if this doesn't bother you then everything is fine; since many resellers will not allow you to return because of 1 dead pixel. But for those who ask for a perfect screen, you better go to the local shop, ask the salesperson to pull out the panel & test it before you buy. I bought many of my PC stuffs thro' web, but I felt purchase a LCD thro' web is the most risky one and that's why I will stick with the big name with good return policy.
