ASUS PW201 20inch Wide-screen LCD Monitor Review

July 26th 2006 | Displays

The ASUS PW201 has a black piano finish and its bezel houses a 20-inch widescreen LCD panel (8ms response time) that features a native resolution of 1,680 by 1,050 pixels, giving users acres of desktop space to work with. The screen of the PW201 is that of the traditional matt, anti-glare version… ASUS’ SPLENDID Video Intelligence Technology offers a variety of preset viewing modes (eg. Game, Night View, Scenery, etc) that users can simply choose to instantly configure the video attributes of the PW201 to the video content they are viewing for maximum visual enjoyment.

Though users may have slight tactility issues with the PW201’s touch buttons, it is not severe to the extent of tainting the otherwise impressive PW201. The ability to change orientation from landscape to portrait with a single click of a button; highly audible built-in stereo speakers; a 1.3 megapixel camera; and compatibility with most video sources (except for HDMI devices), the ASUS PW201 is sure to create a lasting impression.
