This Monitors give to us some advantages, like this :
1. First Impressions- Superb 3D Value, though mediocre 2D
I was almost ready to buy a GTX 460, a Nvidia 3D vision kit, and the Asus 23.6" 120HZ 3d monitor. This would have totaled to $640, ($490 if you have the proper card already). The Asus wasn't even back-lit LED.
Instead at the last minute I saw this, strangely without any reviews. I looked more into it, and apparently it was a new release, and some review on Newegg said the 3d looks impressive, so I took the risk and went ahead. Total cost $300 (the price seems to fluctuating up and down). The biggest con is there just isn't so much information about it online. The funny thing is, I still don't know some important details, which I will go into.
PROS:
Hands down, the cheapest way to get into 3d gaming, 3dwise the value doesn't get any better than this
The 3D Looks GOOD, no flickering
LED Backlit saves energy
1080p resolution, cinema aspect ratio (i.e. no bars on Hulu)
Comes with TRI-Def (3d conversion software...
2. Bright monitor with some ghosting in 3D
This monitor has a very bright screen with what I would judge are pleasing color renditions. Other reviewers have rated it average for rendition, but compared to my old monitor it was good. I bought the monitor primarily because it was an inexpensive way to get 3D, and as such it certainly is one of the least expensive 3D options. It works just fine with my AMD processor and built in GeForce 9100 video processor.
I tried both the included 3D glasses and ReadlD 3D glasses and both appeared to work. But the RealD glasses produced much more ghosting. The 3D essentially reduces the vertical resolution from 1080 to 540 pixels. This produces obvious black lines when viewing with 3D glasses. In addition very small 2D text is not very readable. Non 3D text on the icons looks indistinct and hazy. It is possible to sit back far enough to get rid of the black lines, but then you may be too far to use the keyboard easily. The black lines and low resolution were not visible to...
Need more appointment... ?
Beware: You can't buy more glasses... But it will work on a Mac.
UPDATE: I changed my review from 3 stars to 1 because after 1.5 years of fairly light usage, this monitor no longer functions. Now when it is turned on, it's own built-in logo and 'check cable' displays roll and flicker. Connecting a computer (any input) and displaying an image results in the same problem. At some point I'll take this apart and see if I can fix it but don't hold out much hope. Perhaps if I used it more it would have failed during the 1 year warranty.
This is a very long review, so let me bring an import issue up front. This monitor comes with 1 pair of glasses and 1 pair of clip-ons, and as of the date of this review (early Fall 2011) you cannot buy more of these same glasses, at least not from any major retailer like Amazon, nor as a replacement part from LG. When contacted about this, LG Customer Service has told me and other LG monitor owners to buy the replacement LG TV glasses instead. But they are not compatible with this monitor. More details...
