Dell UltraSharp 07WFP Series Monitors (20",24",27",30")

Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP

By Michael Degnan

The Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP, a 24-inch wide-screen LCD, is another solid entry into Dell's updated UltraSharp monitor line. This $949 monitor boasts plentiful features and connections, excellent image quality, and all the adjustability we could ask ...

Dell's 24-inch wide-screen LCD delivers excellent image quality and a ton of connectivity options, including video inputs and picture-in-picture settings. Add in a great price, and the Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP is the best value in its class.

Xerox XR3-17Gs

Xerox XR3-17GS

By Kristina Blachere

The basic Xerox XR3-17Gs delivers average performance and is attractive, but its modest ergonomic adjustability and lack of options detract from its overall appeal. For the same $280 price, we prefer the Dell UltraSharp 1707FP, which offers markedly ...

ViewSonic VX2025wm

ViewSonic VG2021m

By Lara Luepke

Disguised as a fairly basic 20-inch monitor, the ViewSonic VG2021m surprised us with solid overall performance and a low $405 price. As with any bargain monitor, you'll have to make some sacrifices; the VG2021m skimps on physical adjustability, has ...

ViewSonic VX2025wm

ViewSonic VX2025wm

By Lara Luepke

Though its dapper design makes it a smart choice for home use, the ViewSonic VX2025wm is a great machine for light graphic and design work. This stylish wide screen isn't nearly as adjustable as other displays, such as the Dell UltraSharp 2007WFP or ...

Samsung SyncMaster 204B

Samsung SyncMaster 204B

By Lara Luepke

The Samsung SyncMaster 204B looks like a business monitor, but its impressive DVD performance, feature set, and handsome styling make it a viable option for the home as well. We also appreciate its ample flexibility and image adjustability. Compared ...

Sony SDM-S205F

Sony SDM-S205FB

By Kristina Blachere

The Sony SDM-S205FB is a superior 20-inch LCD made for high-end business users. We were impressed by the display's near-flawless performance, though for its $599 price (Sony originally released this monitor with a $699 price), we're disappointed at ...

Lenovo ThinkVision L201p

Lenovo ThinkVision L201p

By Kristina Blachere

Though the 20-inch Lenovo ThinkVision L201P is admirable for its adjustability and easily navigable onscreen menu, the bland design is screaming for an update, and at $649, it's too expensive for its basic set of features. In the competitive category ...

High degree of adjustability ; evenly lit screen ; streak-free performance when displaying moving images ; dedicated button for swapping between digital and analog signals

More expensive than similar LCDs ; outdated design ; lacks cable management system

The 20-inch Lenovo ThinkVision L201P offers better-than-average performance and excellent ergonomic flexibility, but it's more expensive than similarly equipped business displays.

Philips 230WP7NS

The 23-inch wide-screen Philips Brilliance 230WP7 is a good performer and will fit well in an office for graphics work, but its $1,499 price is too expensive for its limited feature set. To its credit, the Brilliance 230WP7 offers network-management ...

LaCie 120

LaCie 120

By Lara Luepke

Well known for high-end LCDs made for graphics professionals, such as the 321 and 319 models, LaCie enters the mainstream corporate category with the 120. Though it doesn't break boundaries in the design area, it knocks out the competition with its ...

Benq FP202W

BenQ FP202W

By Kristina Blachere

The BenQ FP202W is the most bare-bones 20-inch wide-screen LCD we've reviewed, yet also one of the most expensive. At $649, it's $120 more than the generously equipped Dell UltraSharp 2007WFP. Presumably, the high price reflects the FP202W's faster ...
