Inaccurate description on website.

By N/A (newegg.com) Read the full review

I would've given 5-star if the size detail was accurate... even at the higher price. I did not call Newegg nor LG prior to ordering. Previous experience has taught me that the phone advisor just reads the same product description that's found online....

Excellent picture quality ; Adjustable height ; Matte bezel. Very thin and uniform all around ; Relatively samll footprint

1. the actual witdth is 21.5" and not 20.23" - I checked the LG website and every document on Newegg (including the official pdf) before ordering this monitor. it was ~ $40 more than others in this level but I ordered because the advertised width was...

Excellent Intro Designing Display

By Furian (newegg.com) Read the full review

Will be buying another 2 of these for gaming and more design work.

Wide Viewing Angle ; 1080p Content Plays Flawless ; No Dead Pixels ; Plenty of Screen Real Estate to work on any Photo / Video Editing ; Beautifully Designed Shell

Movement, but I initially wanted to set this up as a Tri-Monitor Setup on a Mutli-Screen Stand. But, no eggs needed to be removed for that

Very nice!

Dynamic backlighting does not appear to have any effect unless the screen is almost 100% black. It can be disabled completely by holding the rightmost settings button (not power button) for five seconds. Default brightness is eye-searing. Turn it...

Nice, professional-looking frame, without any glossy 'modern' styling touches ; Matte-finish screen doesn't show reflections ; Minimal ghosting ; Excellent viewing angles (hooray IPS!) ; Decent color - despite being IPS, it's only a 6-bit panel so...

Rotating base is extremely unstable. If you flip the monitor over and remove the screw holding the turntable, and throw the turntable away, you'll be left with something much more stable ; Blue power LED always blinks during standby. It can be...

By (macworld.co.uk)

The LG IPS231 was the big surprise of the test – a 23in monitor with superb colour reproduction that was surprisingly cheap

LG Flatron IPS231P

By Alexandre Botella (digitalversus.com)

Without a HDMI input, you can't connect a games console or DVD player directly, but you can still watch movies using your computer as the source. The IPS231P is no better than any other monitor at upscaling SD content, so you should make sure you have...

Usability: height-adjustable rotating stand with portrait mode ; Above average contrast ; Accurate colours by defult ; Wide viewing angles ; Low energy consmption for an IPS monitor

Ghosting time too long for gaming ; Other IPS displays have wider viewing angles ; No HDMI port

The great colour reproduction offered by the LG Flatron IPS231P makes it a great choice for design work, and the fact you can rotate to portrait mode makes it useful for anybody working with two displays at once. To gain that extra fifth star, it would...

To reduce some of the blurriness, we suggest turning the brightness down as far as you can stand.

Great monitor

For those saying the stand is flimsy, all you have to do is remove the "swivel" plate from the bottom, so the monitor can sit on the actual base, not

Decent IPS monitor for the price but don't buy for speakers

The image quality doesn't look any different than the standard TN LED monitors I am used to using. At least not for general business use. I didn't eve

This item is exactly what I was looking for: 23", IPS panel, and a swivel function.
