Description:
The NEC LCD1935NXM is an extraordinary display for demanding users who need a large screen at a reasonable price. It offers 19 diagonal inches of real estate, a native SXGA (1,280 x 1,024) resolution with 0.294-millimeter dot pitch, convenient tilting, and easy wall mounting. The image is bright and clear with high contrast. Setting up the LCD1935NXM was easy. We plugged in the power supply, connected the monitor to our PC's video card, attached the audio cable, and followed the simple setup sheet to adjust monitor settings and to set our computer to 1,280 x 1,024 mode. Total setup time was less than five minutes. For wall mounting, you can tilt the monitor all the way back (parallel to the base) and then affix the base to a VESA-compliant bracket (not included). Note that the base does not detach. In or tests, the LCD1935NXM's image quality was quite remarkable. The horizontal viewing angle is rated at only 130 degrees, but the display dimmed only slightly as we rotated the unit away from straight-on. A modest rippling effect was noticeable at extreme vertical angles but not in normal viewing positions. Colors were vivid, text was sharp, and photographs exhibited excellent subtlety. The monitor remained bright and clear in a variety of lighting conditions (rated at 250 cd per square meter), and the anti-glare surface performed well even when placed near a window. Scaling and smoothing at lower resolutions was only fair, but because you'll likely keep the monitor in its native resolution mode, this isn't a serious problem. Full-cycle pixel response time is rated at 16 milliseconds, making the unit well-suited for video games and DVDs. The monitor accepts analog VGA 15-pin D-sub and DVI-D digital connections, so you'll be ready for either standard or high-end video cards (DVI cable and Mac cable adapter sold separately). The built-in stereo speakers are convenient, though without remarkable sound quality. Despite the monitor's large size and support for DVI, serious graphics users would likely prefer a model with UXGA (1,600 x 1,200) resolution. Still, compared to other SXGA models in its price category, the LCD1935NXM performed beautifully. --Mike Brown What's in the Box
