LCD Monitor Buyer’s Guide: Spring 2010
 

This article is focused on the problem of choice of a computer monitor and consists of two parts. The first part covers the new trends that emerged or came to full force in 2009. In other words, it covers the most important technologies offered by the manufacturers and I will discuss them not in the way of how it works but rather in the way of what it gives to us, customers. The second part of the article is about choosing a monitor for specific applications. I will explain what parameters to pay attention to and name a few specific products you may be interested in. Of course, I cannot enumerate all monitors selling today and give my recommendations on each of them. So, I name specific models basing on my personal experience and taste. As everybody’s opinion is biased, you may not like the models I suggest for some reason. In this case, you should read through the theoretical part and approach the problem of choice on your own.

Someone might need to go and update an article, despite that almost everything in it is true and some better is even better described than in this one.

Objections to above article:

16:10 is better than 16:9.

If you are low on money, there only is the Dell 2209WA.


Also it is sad how small the progress is for monitors for two years, in some areas we are going backwards (glossy and 16:9).

as with everything, mainstream is taking over :(
