Setting up the 1810 was easy. We plugged in the power supply, connected the monitor to our PC's video card, and followed the colorful setup card to adjust monitor settings and to set our computer to 1,280 x 1,024 mode. We inserted the included CD-ROM into our PC and installed the Pivot software. Total setup time was less than five minutes.
The 1810's XtraView technology is quite remarkable. Colors dimmed only slightly as we rotated the screen away from straight-on; they became truly dark only when viewing the monitor edge-on. The monitor remained bright and clear in a variety of lighting conditions (rated at 200 cd per square meter), and the anti-glare surface performed well even when facing a window.
The 1810's native 1,280 x 1,024 resolution was razor sharp. Lower resolutions were grainier, and the lowest resolution was quite choppy (typical for this type of monitor). Because you'll likely keep the monitor in its native resolution mode, you'll want a fast video card for quick refreshing. The contrast ratio is rated at only 150:1, so we were surprised by the rich details that emerged when viewing color photographs.
The 1810 accepts most standard input signals--analog RGB, separate sync TTL level, positive/negative composite sync TTL level, and composite sync on green video. It has dual inputs with 15-pin mini D-sub male to 5-branched BNC male (capable) and 15-pin mini D-sub male to 15-pin mini D-sub male (standard cable). It comes with a power cord, power adapter, monitor cable, CD-ROM, user's manual, and quick setup card. It measures 23.3 by 25.2 by 15.5 inches (although the display itself is only 3.5 inches thick) and weighs 31 pounds as shipped. It is backed by a three-year warranty.
Overall, we think very highly of the NEC 1810. We've put it through several weeks of in-the-field testing, and we continue to be very impressed with its performance. It represents the standard by which we'll judge other LCD monitors in this class. --Mike Brown
The 1810 also employs Xtra View technology that allows users to maintain an excellent view even when not directly in front of the screen. This technology, combined with this model's larger screen size, provides clear images for multiple users without the need of crowding around the monitor.
Eighteen onscreen controls provide individuals with plenty of customizable options, while the four-port USB hub offers convenient plug-and-play possibilities for both Macintosh and PC. The combination of its 0.28-millimeter dot pitch, 200:1 contrast ratio, 1,280 x 1,024 maximum resolution, and 85 Hz refresh rate guarantee crisp imaging and clear color separation.
NEC includes an impressive three-year warranty that covers parts, labor, and backlight. --Jill Lightner
