The LG monitor is $50 cheaper than sumsung here in my country.

I'm ordering one next week.
This one (Acer 2051W) however is better than both if you can get it in your country.
It's not available here in Japan.

If you care about things like colour reproduction, then yeah, those non-TN panels are way better.Fighterpilot wrote:This one (Acer 2051W) however is better than both if you can get it in your country.
Are you kidding ?
According to this website Acer monitor have only 800:1 contrast ratio and 8ms Response time http://www.nextag.com/acer-2051-w/search-html
How could a monitor than have a contrast ratio of 800:1 and 8ms Response time be better than a monitor that have 3000:1 and 2ms Response time like the Samsung monitor ?
