1 out of 5 eggsDo Not Buy This Monitor

Pros: Like the picture.

Cons: Monitor randomly goes into "Digital Power Saving" mode and shuts off. Have found many people online with the same problem. LG customer service is terrible, and I have spent many hours trying to get a competent person to help me. Newegg shares in the blame for selling a known defective product. This has soured me on Newegg and LG both. Avoid this monitor at all costs.

5 out of 5 eggsAmazing

Pros: This monitor is awesome. Upgraded from an ancient Gateway 15" CRT and wow. I never want to leave my computer. Movies, games, web browsing, you name it. It looks awesome. Bright, Crisp, and clear. 1920x1080 is great. Great looking housing as well.

Cons: As some others have said, the touchscreen buttons are a little annoying. That's its only downfall to me. Also newegg shipped in the LG box. Anyone could have snagged this bad boy but they didn't.

Other Thoughts: All in all, buy this. If you're not worried about having an HDMI input then this monitor is perfect. MUCH BIGGER than I thought it was going to be. Not one dead/stuck pixel. MW2,Fallout 3, Fear2,Crysis,Prototype-THEY ALL LOOK AMAZING!

5 out of 5 eggsGreat!

Pros: This monitor produces a great picture and video. I also like the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" controls. No buttons to push, just touch controls on the frame.

Cons: None that I can think off.

4 out of 5 eggsGreat for movies and surfing. Not gaming.

Pros: Excellent picture. Pretty design. I actually own the 2353, which is a hair larger, and currently sells in Korea.

Cons: BUTTONS! Proximity-sensitive buttonless buttons are extremely difficult to use, in reality. I'd much rather have REAL buttons I can both see and FEEL! Also, they don't print the names of the buttons even remotely bright enough for you to see what they all are (or where they are)! Monitor is a fingerprint and dust magnet. Mirror-black plastic base scratches very easily as soon as you try to wipe dust from it. Yes, a dust rag is actually enough to scratch it. You'd think they'd learn that people DON'T like that.

Other Thoughts: As mentioned elsewhere, don't get this if you're a gamer who wants to play older games. The size of the monitor ends up malforming your game. Also,

5 out of 5 eggsWOW!

Pros: WOW! So clear upgraded from a 15" lcd. 2ms response time is great. CS 1.6 and CS:S are amazing in wide screen, the game actually looks pretty(even 1.6 does). Would buy again.

Cons: did not come with a DVI cable

Other Thoughts: 2.8 Dual core

5 out of 5 eggsReply to sstevens33

Pros: Excellent picture, no border backlight bleeding, high contrast, forte manager let's you choose settings for movies, reading text etc. even set your own settings and save them for quick access. All around good monitor.

Cons: Nothing other than small stuff. sstevens33 mentioned that you can't play older games because of the resolution or the widescreen format. I didn't want anyone to get discouraged about the monitor because it has a feature that allows you to put a 4:3 frame in the widescreen monitor, then all you do is change your resolution to 1280x1024 or w/e and it looks just fine.

2 out of 5 eggsNot for gaming

Pros: Relatively inexpensive....clear, sharp picture...full HD 16:9 ratio (no border) is great for movies, but that's it.

Cons: To run this as a pc monitor, you need to use a resolution of 1280x720. Because of the 16:9 ratio (no border) that means throwing away most games that were released more than 1 year ago.
For the newest games (GTAIV, COD5, BIAHH, etc.) it's great....but for slightly older games that are still heavily played (M2TW, any EASPORTS 08 title, CeasarIV, etc.) the 1280x720 resolution is simply not supported and makes them impossible to play. No matter what resolution you run these games at, they are stretched and squished. Also, I had to buy a dvi cable separately, as one was not included with this monitor. A VGA (analog) cable was included, however. The plastic base is cheap and the high gloss finish is a magnet for dust and fingerprints.

Other Thoughts: If you are looking for a monitor for serious gaming, don't buy this...get a larger square screen or something with a less extreme ratio...seriously, this should be sold as a low-end hdtv and not as a pc monitor.

5 out of 5 eggsAmazing

Pros: 1080p, more-than-fair price, auto brightness adjustment, amazing contrast ratio. Overall picture quality is excellent. I didn't expect as huge an increase in quality as I got, going from 1280x720 at 1,000 contrast to this. Beautiful.

Cons: No HDMI input, no digital cable included.

5 out of 5 eggsgood monitor

Pros: Crisp, clear, no dead pixels, no border light leaks. Needed no configuring or adjustment, worked superbly right out of the box. Good price for specs and performance. No problems with smearing or artefacts with movie action scenes.

Cons: Controls can take some getting used to (but I haven't needed to use them.) Tilt adjustment is stiff - adjust with careful firmness and patience.

Other Thoughts: Didn't install Forte software from CD since I didn't see the need. At the time, best 'bang' for buck. Bought two, gave one to my sister. One hopes they continue to work well for years.

2 out of 5 eggsVery Frustrating Monitor....

Pros: 1080p
2ms GTG response time is very nice.
DVI and Analog input (analog comes in handy when working on old pcs...)
Nice size and rather slim

Cons: Monitor has never displayed colors very well.
I have spent hours using numerous calibration tools and some colors just still look very weak.
Monitor shuts off and turns back on whenever i overclock my 4870....
My monitor would occasionally turn on to powersave mode, and i could NEVER get it out of power save mode no mater what i did. Finally annoyed me to the point of getting an RMA...
Monitor displayed a bit of "static" during bluray playback that i have never seen before.

Other Thoughts: People, u get what you pay for.... never forget that.

LG and Newegg have been incredibly helpfull in replacing this monitor for me, but the hassel of getting a defective product is painful...
