Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Winner of the prestigious Editors' Choice award from CNET, this elegantly slim flat-panel monitor supplies superb imaging capabilities at a surprisingly affordable price. The LCD1550V provides a true-size 15-inch display that measures just 2.4 inches deep and has a recommended resolution of 1,024 x 768 at 75 MHz. A contrast ratio of 300:1 and the 0.3mm dot pitch bring crisp, clear edges and vivid color to your images.

The base is detachable, allowing the screen to be used with a wall bracket or mounting arm. In any location, the energy-saving design reduces the overall cost of running your monitor and extends the life of the display panel. Mitsubishi includes a three-year warranty on parts, labor, and backlight.

Enhance your visual experience at an unrivaled price with the 15-inch NEC MultiSync LCD1550V, a space-saving LCD monitor with a thin frame that allows you to focus more on your ideas and less on the monitor's bezel. NEC's No Touch Auto Adjust technology adjusts the monitor to optimal settings upon initial power-on, while low energy consumption reduces costs over the monitor's life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Flat Panel Monitor, January 21, 2002

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: NEC MultiSync LCD1550V-BK 15" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)

After doing some research and looking at various monitors I decided on the NEC 1550V. For the price it is an excellent deal and seemed to perform the best. When I first saw the model the 1550v replaced, the 1530v, in the store I was amazed at the picture quality. This monitor shares that same excellent picture quality.

Setup was a snap and the picture is incredible. Vibrant colors, even backlighting and quick refresh all make this monitor a joy to use. I have had no problems using it with work applications and the screen is fast enough to use with games as well (though I am not a hard-core gamer, it definitely seems fine to me). I've noticed less eye strain and fatigue using this LCD for long periods of time. All in all, a great deal and I will never go back to a CRT. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Views from LCD land, November 27, 2001

This review is from: NEC MultiSync LCD1550V-BK 15" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)

This should be the newest 15 inch LCD in the NEC/Mitsubishi line up. I believe it is replacing the 1530V.
I just hooked up my NEC 1550V, and man does it look good. The text is razor sharp, and the display contrast is brilliant right from the factory. The monitor auto adjusts upon installation, so little user input is necessary. I played Return to Castle Wolfenstein on this monitor and the graphics were gorgeous. The detail of the weapons was exquisite. Default resolution is 1024 X 768 @75hz. LCD is the way to go. Don't deprive your senses any longer. Order today! AMAZON.com + Low prices + free shipping = PURE ROCK

5.0 out of 5 stars Great monitor at a great price!, August 10, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: NEC MultiSync LCD1550V-BK 15" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)

This was my first flat panel monitor and I purchased it based on the reviews of CNET and it's customers, plus it looked cool.
My first impression of the monitor when I open the package was that the pictures did not do it justice. It looks FREAKIN SWEEEET! The view was a lot larger than I expected for a 15 inch. I connected the black monitor to my new Dell 8200 with the nVidia 64MB GeForce4 ti-4200 and had no trouble during setup. The resolution automatically optimized itself. The controls panel is easy to use. Text is very clear and DVD's and games experience no "ghosting". I also use it to edit photos and it works well so far. I have my monitor set to half brightness so contrast is not a problem. Great monitor at any price.
