NEC LCD3090WQXi-BK

This monitor may be pricey, but for serious photographers and videographers, it's worth every penny.

Excellent performance out of the box. Good uniformity. Superb color, gray-scale tracking. Highly flexible control panel.

Expensive. Black levels could be better. Enabling HDCP limits resolution.

NEC LCD3090 WQXi 30-inch Display

We saw how splendid an IPS monitor can be when we reviewed Dell's 24-inch UltraSharp U2410 in January. “Sometimes you have to pay to play,” we concluded. Moments after reaching that summit, we observed NEC's 30-inch LCD3090 WQXi IPS panel looming...

IPS panel; relatively fast response time; supreme performance; ergonomic stand

Crazy expensive; no DisplayPort; lacks dual-link HDCP support

That brings us to the only issue with the monitor: It can’t support HDCP at 2560x1600 resolution, only at 1920x1080. This can be fixed by installing SlySoft’s AnyDVD HD (after buying the app, natch), which will circumvent the HDCP protection. Of...

Review: NEC MultiSync 3090WQXi LCD

NEC's MultiSync 3090WQXi is a 30-inch wide-screen LCD monitor aimed at professionals whose work requires color accuracy.

Adjustable stand ; Large screen ; Looks good at wide viewing angles

Expensive

The display connects to your Mac using one of the two DVI inputs. It requires a dual-link DVI-equipped Mac, such as a Mac Pro or MacBook Pro. Some Power Mac G5s and late-model PowerBooks also support dual-link, but check your system’s specifications...

NEC MultiSync LCD3090WQXi 30in Monitor

NEC storms into the 30in monitor market with a screen that puts the competition in the shade.

The NEC MultiSync is far and away the best 30in monitor I've ever had on my desk. The image quality is first rate, with supremely wide viewing angles that show what an S-IPS panel is capable of (take note Dell). The design is excellent, with extensive...

NEC MultiSync LCD3090WQXi review

This chunky monster is a fantastic performer, but can it justify that price tag?

Superb quality ; Very wide colour gamut ; Adjustable ; Easy-to-use onscreen display

Slightly uneven backlighting in our unit ; Bulkier than we expect from LCD

If you’re doing colour-critical work, this is a real, high-resolution treat

NEC MultiSync 3090WQXi review

NEC's MultiSync 3090WQXi is a 30in widescreen LCD monitor aimed at professionals whose work requires colour accuracy. The NEC MultiSync 3090WQXi is more expensive than Apple's 30in Cinema HD display, but it features a wider viewing angle, a higher...

Colour professionals who are looking for a larger canvas, but are unwilling to sacrifice colour accuracy and performance, should consider the NEC MultiSync 3090WQXi. It offers a supersize screen and tools for ensuring accurate and consistent colour.

NEC LCD3090WQXi review

NEC's LCD3090WQXi is a high-end 30in monitor that's a grade above the likes of Apple's 30in Cinema HD Display and Dell's UltraSharp 3008WFP.

The LCD3090WQXi is an excellent display with only one major flaw – its price. While the Auto Luminance system is unique for a 30in display, this alone isn’t worth the £300 extra the LCD3090WQXi costs over Eizo’s FlexScan SX3031W.
