This is a brilliant display for everyday use. Although it features only an analog (VGA) input, it produces clear, sharp images.

Outstanding image quality, photos look stunning

Poor button layout, no DVI connector, no audio

Sony SDMHS95PS

 

This expensive monitor demonstrates the most intricate industrial design - it doesn't have a neck. Instead, the front bezel, which is 3cm wide across ...

Interesting design, anti-glare coating

Trailing was evident in motion blur tests, colours not displayed particularly well

This monitor didn’t fare too well in our tests for motion blurring and it also struggled slightly in the colour tests. It did have the best viewing angles in the review though, as well as the best aesthetics, but these features aren't enough to justify...

Sony SDM-HS75P/S 17-inch LCD

 

The Sony SDM-HS75P/S is an attractive, glossy 17-inch LCD that's better suited for movies and games than for serious work.

Attractive design; accurate colors; digital and analog inputs; varied adjustment options.

Inconsistent screen brightness; glossy finish creates potential glare issues; loss of detail in saturated colors; lacks height adjustment; pricey.

Outstanding image quality sets this glossy-screen monitor above the rest.

Excellent image quality, Attractive design

Lack of physical adjustments

The Sony SDM-HS95P displays graphics beautifully on a glossy screen, and the easel-like stand looks striking. Height (and swivel) adjustment is all that's lacking.

Sony SDM-S95D

 

After having your hands on a digital camera, if you're like many, you likely can't stop clicking. Family portraits, candids, scenery, nothing's not photo-worthy to you! Of course, there's more to digital photography than snapping photos: you'll need to...

Ultra-thin bezel. Dual video inputs. Excellent text output

Lacks height adjustment. Does not support pivot rotation

The Sony SDM-S95D may not be the most flexible 19-inch LCD out there, but if good image quality and sleek lines are key, this monitor belongs on your short list.

Sony MFM-HT95

 

Native Resolution: 1280 x 1024 pixels x pixels, Screen Size: 19 inches, Supported EDTV and HDTV Resolutions: 1080i ...

Incorporates analog A/V inputs and an integrated NTSC TV tuner. Thoughtfully designed remote control. Good contrast ratio.

Poor image uniformity. Screen technology best suited for light-controlled environments.

The Sony MFM-HT95 is a versatile multifunction display hampered by mediocre image uniformity.
