how about u30?

And the probability of getting a defective panel increases with larger sizes, so the cost of manufacturing them to get a good panel is even higher.

Acer introduced two new B-series PC monitors that make use of vertical-alignment (VA) panel technology, and LED backlit illumination. The Acer B243HLCOymdr is a 24-inch model, while the B273HLOymidh is the 27-inch part. Both displays feature full-HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, and 100 million to 1 dynamic contrast ratio, providing a "zero bright dot guarantee". With 8 ms response time, the B243HLCOymdr is the snappier among the two, it features 250 cd/m² maximum brightness, and display inputs that include DVI and D-Sub; while the B273HLOymidh has 10 ms response time, 300 cd/m² brightness, and features HDMI input apart from D-Sub and DVI. The stands of both monitors allow rotating, tilting, height adjustment; the 24-inch model even allows pivoting. The Acer B243HLCOymdr and B273HLOymidh are priced at €249 and €399, respectively.

manufacturer have acceptable defective pixel count, they can use the panel if there is 1-2 dead pixel (stuck pixel are unacceptable), unless the panel use for professional class lcd like u3011h

Really hope it'll be sold here.
Since last year there BenQ and LG have launched multiple cheap VA and IPS panel LCDs [with WLED backlight no less] but none of them got here except for Dell and AOC...

Which option is better, a 24" full hd LCD TV these days or a monitor the likes of Viewsonic VX2450wmLED 23.6", LG E2350t 23"
Now the thing is, iirc TVs are made not for near sight viewing but i do know that TV has better viewing quality for watching movies/programs with thier motion engine and wat not, however, unknown quality for gaming
Also recently their prices have also come crashing down to be worthy comparisons
Ill be using the monitor/tv on a desktop PC for both media viewing and gaming purposes

in your experience, what is the cheapest price for U3011?

now its RM3300... Is this a good deal?

Have you tried gaming on a LCD before?If you have then what's the exact model?The reason i'm asking is because older TN panel LCDs are as 'slow' as today's cheap IPS and VA variants found on TVs.Non-TN panel LCDs/TVs have better colours and viewing angles so it'll be more enjoyable if you watch movies/videos on it.
Anyway here's some LCDs that i personally recommend
LG W2343T-PF 23" RM469 [Quite accurate colours,good contrast ratio,cheap]
Dell U2311H 23" RM599 [eIPS panel so accurate and nicely saturated colours,large vertical viewing angles,fast for an IPS,good contrast ratio]

thx for reply, but are LCD TV's dot pixel much larger since they had further viewing distance intended

hey guys
any idea whats the best lcd now for a 21.5in form factor and best valued lcd now ?
my samsung lcd seems to go cuckoo flickering non stop every 10seconds

Hi RacerX, how about this LG W2353TQ (16:9) or W2354TQ (16:10)? This 2 LCD monitor ok  mah?

IMO the 'best' 21.5" LCD is the Dell ST2220T at RM759,it has a glossy coating [so higher contrast ratio] and it uses an IPS panel.It is also multitouch capable
For best value,it's the Dell U2311H,23" eIPS LCD,RM599,great colour reproduction,relatively fast,good contrast ratio.

Can't comment on those two since i can't find any reviews nor have i seen them before.

wah IPS panel only Rm599 now ?
what about the TN variant ? should be much cheaper right
