L196WTY

Tested for our February 2008 feature "The Wide World of Monitors," the LG Electronics L196WTY-BF offers consistent graphics in a stand that swivels but doesn't lower.

Bundled display settings software Wide swivel

No DVI cable included Tall profile with no height-adjustment

A few minor gripes aside, the LG L196WTY is an excellent monitor for business or home use--if you don't mind the tall profile and non-height-adjustable stand

LG Electronics L196WTY Review

LG Electronics L196WTY Review:LG introduces the LG Electronics L196WTY which provides an individual with best viewing experience for an individual. Look at the benefits that LG actually provides for you

Wide Swivel stand, Almost 360-degree swivel ; provide best viewing experience, Software - Bundled display settings, Very cheap for a 19? monitor, On screen display easy to navigate (adjust brightness/contrast/movie and text, etc), Clear Maximum...

Might be too tall for an individual, Unadjustable height stand, May be too big to get used to it if you switched from 15

If you do not mind the unadjustable height stand and 19€² inch monitor. LG Electronics L196WTY could be a good monitor for both business or home use, especially with the 360 degree swivel which gives you the best viewing experience

LG Electronics L196WTY-BF review

The LG Electronics L196WTY-BF offers consistent graphics in a stand that swivels but doesn't lower. But it's not cheap for a 19in monitor.

A few minor gripes aside, the LG Electronics L196WTY-BF is an excellent monitor for business or home use - if you don't mind the tall profile and non-height-adjustable stand. But it's not cheap, and you may struggle to source on in the UK.

No Comment.

Great monitor when hooked up using DVI connection. However it comes with a VGA cord and I had to go buy a DVI cord to get good resolution

Does not ship with a DVI cord

Let me just say I love this Monitor.It could have certainly gone the other way though.I ordered this with the impression a signature would have to be given to release the package. Not so! It was left on my doorstep in the middle of a snowstorm in 0...

Great images Fast response time compact

None if you buy from a place who makes sure the item is signed for and not left outside exposed.
