Overview

Product Description

LG's 61 Series LCD Monitors combine superior technology with convenient features that provide clearer, crisper and a more color accurate image in an economical solution.

Full HD 1080p
Full HD contents should be displayed on a Full HD resolution display to maintain their original details.
Cinema mode
Video clips uploaded on web pages are in low resolution and pixels are distorted when the clips are viewed on full screen. On the other hand, watching the clips in their original size would mean being exposed to various distractive elements such as banners and text. Just like a movie theatre, Cinema Mode creates an ideal environment for viewing video clips posted online by dimming the areas excluded in your mouse drag and helping you focus on what you are watching.
Energy Star Rated
Energy Star rated products use less energy and save users money on their utility bills and are better for the environment Auto Bright Sensor
LG's Smart Monitor's Auto Bright function has a Bright Sensor that measures the amount of light in the area surrounding the monitor. After analyzing the brightness of ambient light and the data source, the monitor signals the backlight to create an optimized brightness that reproduces a clear image without causing eye strain.
Live Sensor
Live Sensor recognizes hands approaching the monitor and automatically turns on by a proximity sensor. This feature saves energy and contributes to the product life.
Time Control
The Time Control reminds you to take some time to rest by signaling with the power button light according to the interval set by the user.

Fab monitor
review by: Clifford Russell rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows Vista

This is an impressive monitor. I have it sitting side by side with an Acer AL2416W - which is a bit bigger.



Anyway, clever things... you can plug 3 devices in simultaneously - if you use all 3 connectors. I put the VGA to my old PC and the DVI to my new PC and the HDMI to my blue-ray player. The middle button cycles between each of them.



There is a headphone jack - which is for HDMI audio out only - so you can listen to blue-ray movies etc, but precious little use.



Weight wise, this is very light.



Menus - these are the usual fiddly things that are far too complicated to use.



The power on/off is a very sexy droopy piece of plastic lit using internal reflection from a hidden lcd. It is touch sensitive.



Overall looks - it's 18 months younger than my Acer monitor and you can see how design has moved on. It's sexier/sleeker etc.



Picture quality is excellent - however I had been expecting blacks to be blacker given the contrast figures. I had also been looking at some OLED stuff and some KURO TVs - which may have set my expectations too high.



Aside from not liking the general setup menus, it's pretty difficult to fault it.



3 Year warranty is a nice touch.



I plugged it into Vista 32 Ultimate with a GeForce 8800GTS it worked just fine. On my older XP SP3 Dell workstation with a GeForce FX 2500 128mb graphics - it needed the drivers from the CD - but then ran amazingly at full 1080P resolutions.

Very good
review by: Timothy Auger rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows Vista

I did have one reservation when ordering this monitor: the LG 22" that I have on my desk at work has a poor mounting to its stand and wobbles frighteningly much when colleagues lean on it as they tend to do when talking to me. Gives me an excuse to shout at them! This one however has no such issue - sound as a pound in fact.



I bought this to go with my gaming rig, but it has ended up as the primary monitor on my main pc alongside a 22" Samsung, replacing the 24" Samsung with those irritating touch controls instead of buttons. I use my primary monitor's alternate inputs when building/working on other pcs and the button on the side of this monitor makes life much easier.



As previously said by other reviewers it is light in weight and gives excellent display quality. The information on this implies that it tilts, but I have yet to discover how to achieve that. Not that it really matters much.



I didn't use the menus to set it up, but made all the adjustemnts via the nVidia control panel.



There are no speakers - but then who wants to listen to music thru the 'multi-media' speakers that one tends to find in screens of this type.



The fact that the headphones on this unit only work with the HDMI input is hardly a problem: just plug your headphones directly into your pc! Which begs the question, why bother have the headphone socket at all?



All the above being said, my favourite thing about this monitor is the power on/off and indicator. That is just so cool! Worth an extra star if there were any to give!

I was in 2 minds about buying this Monitor at first, But I Glad I did Excellent Monitor for the price.



Not one Dead Pixel and the Monitor worked straight out of the box and the color's on the games is just amazing also the Blu-Ray Movie look so sharp.



For the Price it's A Steel and Could not be happier with the Monitor.



As for the Ebuyer Service just Fantastic Ordered the Monitor on Friday and was Hear but Saturday Morning at 7.30am.



O yes before I forget the Monitor did not req any Driver with win 7 like my old one did so that was a bonus.



So if you are looking for a new Monitor if you are on a budget or not then this is the right choice.



Thanks again Ebuyer.

Just buy it!! If you don't like it, Ill eat my hat and record it, and send it to you.

Amazing
review by: Chris =] rating:
customer rating
operating system: Not Applicable

When I got this sleek glossy monitor out of the box, I was shocked. is it me or is 23" bigger than it used to be? I immediately plugged in my PS3 via HDMI, I must say the sharpness of the image was astonishing. I normally run my PS3 through my 32" Lg 1080p TV. My new monitor vastly improves the crispness of the image, making it sharper and overall more clearer image. Some reviewers state the stand makes the monitor wobble through slight movement, this did not happen to me though I have a rather sturdy computer desk. I'm still unsure on some of the monitors features such as LG's Smart Monitor's Auto Bright function and the Live sensor which I have yet to understand and discover what they do. Overall this is a very good gaming monitor for the price, yes it doesn't have wall mounts or a hard sturdy stand but for the product you receive and the price you pay, its well worth the money. :)
