A 24-inch LCD that supports 1080p for less than $400

16:9 aspect ratio supported by limited number of films

Whether the 16:9 aspect ratio will make any noticeable difference really depends on what type of content you’ll be watching; still, with a street price hovering around $350, the E2400HD is a good value. But even at this midrange price, we expect more...

Low price, Good performance in games and movies at optimal viewing angle, Built-in speakers and headphone jack, Solid foot stand prevents wobbling

Black level not as deep as we prefer, Bad lower viewing angle, Lack of ergonomic support, Includes only a VGA cable

Full HD resolution, HDMI, HDCP, good contrast and brightness, affordable, speakers

Has only a basic stand, some noticeable motion blur, needs a dedicated input button

Consider this monitor if you want a larger resolution for the home or office, but don't want a huge monitor to dwarf you as you sit at your desk. Maybe give it a miss if you're a gamer, as you might notice too much blurring.

BenQ's E2200HD does have its down-sides including a somewhat sub-par chassis and somewhat unattractive design. However, BenQ makes up for it with fair image quality, good viewing angles and an even better price.

Great value ; HDMI ; Picture quality is decent...

...but easily bettered ; Styling

As a low-end value monitor, we have few complaints, but it is easily bettered

1080p Resolution ; Fast response time ; Connections

Poor colour rendition ; Viewing angles

A versatile monitor that is let down by its screen quality

Full HD resolution, HDMI, HDCP, good contrast and brightness, affordable, speakers

Has only a basic stand, some noticeable motion blur, needs a dedicated input button
