LG Flatron W2486L review

By (expertreviews.co.uk)

With the advent of LED backlighting comes the obsession with creating the thinnest possible monitor. LG claims the W2486L is the world's thinnest 24in PC monitor, but it's a dubious honour.

Poor image quality, frustrating touch-sensitive controls and a high price mean this is one LED monitor to avoid

LG Flatron W2486L 24″ LED-Backlit LCD Monitor Review

By Simon Barker (zath.co.uk)

The W2486L LED monitor also has the added benefit of reduced power consumption over traditional LCD screens and because it is more energy efficient, it also runs much cooler, so as well as wasting less energy, the components are no doubt being put...

LG Flatron W2486L

By (cnet.com)

The LG Flatron W2486L offers great performance in games and has one of the thinnest designs we've seen of any size

The LG Flatron W2486L lacks ergonomic features, has a low brightness level, and its color reproduction looks dull compared with its competitors

The LG Flatron W2486L is a great LED-backlit monitor that few will choose over its main competitor.

LG W2486L 24 Inch LED Gaming Monitor Review

By Roland Hutchinson (geeky-gadgets.com)

LG has sent us one of their latest gaming monitors to review, the LG W2486L. TheW2486L is designed to be used for PC gaming and it features a large 24 inch LED backlit display with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080, which means it is capable of...

The only downside to the monitor is the combination of the the black glossy finish, and the touch sensitive controls which means that it shows up finger marks pretty easily when you use the menu, although this is a small price to pay for the picture...

LG W2486L

By (toptenreviews.com)

The LG W2486L is a prime example as one of the best monitors on the market today.

The LED backlit display on the 23-inch widescreen makes viewing much easier

The touch controls on the monitor are responsive or not at all

We're pretty impressed with the LG W2486L monitor in just about every regard. Most importantly, its image reproduction is superb if a bit less bright than we've seen with other LED displays. We're particularly fond of its ambient light sensing prowess....

For other top rated monitors, objectively reviewed and compared, please take a look at our Monitors Review site.
