Displays Help me choose a new 20" TFT

I am after a new TFT to replace my 17" one. Ideally looking for a 20" TFT. I want it to be good quality, have DVI and black. I have seen the DEll ones and these 2 take my fancy:

Dell E207WFP 20-inch widescreen &

Dell UltraSharp 1908WFP 19-inch Widescreen

I know the 1908WFP is a 19" but if people say it is a better TFT then i don't mind losing an inch!! I have also seen this one mentioned:

21.6" Hanns G HG216DP (I know it is not black but looks nice anyway)

Not sure which would be the best. The 3 above are around the price that i can afford. If anyone has one or can advise then i would be most happy.

 

NEC 20WGX2 fothawin. 20" Wide. S-IPS. Not black, but hey.

 

i think you would be pretty happy with something from the samsung range, i sure am with mine

 

unimpressed with my E207WFP (next to my 2007WFP) if you can get a 2007WFP I'd recommend one of those, the E207WFP is a little over exposed imo

 

How do you mean?

 

Scrap the above TFT's!! Seen some bad reviews of them!!

 

heh, more like the one I suggested is just over your budget and wasn't 'just' released.

Samsung SyncMaster 2232BW

Samsung SyncMaster 226BW

TBH, if you've got the those Dell one's in mind get those...

Oh and yeah, I know I haven't reccomended ONLY 20" monitors. 20"ers really aren't the rave at the moment. 22"ers and 24"ers are become more popular.

 

Read this.
It's a pretty comprehensive guide, helped me.

 

Samsung 2032MW, great screen....

 

And over my budget!

 

Anyone else?

 

It's available for £199.99 (delivered) from Play

Alternatively... Samsung SM2043NW(X) (black) / Samsung SM205BW (silver)?
But does it absolutely have to be a 20" screen, 'coz £200 can get you the 22" Samsung 226BW... and the 22" version of the a/m screen (SM2232BW) for just £182.50?

 

What is your budget? is 170 ish you max? or can you stretch 20 quid more

 

£170 is absolute max mate

 

samsung 2032bw! fits your budget and i've had no probs with mine. really nice monitor

 

Will look that one up now. Thanks

 

I have a 19" Hanns-G which I love to bits so I'd recommend them as a manufacturer although I haven't had much experience with monitors.

EDIT: It also looks pretty nice. One problem is that mine came with a VGA cable as opposed to DVI but It has a DVI connector as well (just no cable included). Also mine's a different model to the 21.6" as in it looks completely different.

 

So hard to find a nice 20" TFT that has good reviews. I really like the look of the Dell's i have mentioned above. The reviews at Dell are good though. Not sure if i should just 'Go for it' and get the dell 20" above?

 

if its got good reviews and in your price range go for it!

 

i have a Dell 2007WFP with an SPIPS panel.... get one, they're amazing for the price.
