BenQ X2200W LCD Monitor

BenQ X2200W LCD Monitor

Sudeep Naik, Jun 12, 2008 1007 hrs IST

The BenQ X2200W has sharper pictures with great colours, but can it ward off competition from cheaper 22 inch models?

Build and design, HDMI port, Senseye+game and PerfectMotion technologies, Loads of viewing modes.

Contrast and colour separation flatten at the extreme brighter end of the spectrum, slightest of mismatches in the HCR test.

With the gods lashing us with torrential rains and bolts of lightning, no one wants to venture out of their homes. And if you are at home, I'm sure you'd want to be glued to your computer playing games or watching movies. Doing this on a huge monitor has always been a dream for many people.

Keeping that in mind, we've reviewed the BenQ X2200W; a 22-inch LCD monitor that promises awesome picture quality and more.

The Monitor



The X2200W features a black matte finish bezel and an electroplated silver chin. It's supported by a small plastic stand that holds the panel firmly in place.

On the face of it, the monitor looks really simple, with nothing but a power button adorning the front side. The OSD buttons are placed to the right and are easy to reach and use.

The BenQ X2200W is a 22-inch LCD monitor and comes with a wide screen WSXGA+ panel that has a maximum resolution of 1680x1050 pixels with a pixel pitch of 0.282 mm. The panel has a response time of 5ms, contrast ratio of 1000:1 and maximum brightness value of 300cd/m2.
The panel can display 16 million colors and has a viewing angle of 160 degrees both horizontally and vertically.

The BenQ X2200W also has audio capabilities in the form of twin 2 Watt speakers that are placed below the panel.



The monitor has a variety of connectivity options as well. It has a D-Sub (VGA), DVI-D and a HDMI connector. Yes, H-D-M-I, but only 720p as the maximum resolution of the panel is less than 1920x1080. Also, since it has three different inputs, you can connect three different devices or comps to this single monitor.

The X2200W operates in 6 visual modes viz., Standard, Dynamic, Photo, Movie, Action and Racing modes. The Senseye+game technology is responsible to deliver the appropriate ambience and visual quality for any of the modes. The Senseye technology fine-tunes each color, one at a time, and similarly adjusts clarity and contrast, thus enhancing image signals to better quality.

The Senseye+game comes with two pre-set gaming modes: Racing Game Mode tailored for high-speed action and Action Game Mode for, well, action, what else?
