By now, we all know that LCD prices are sinking faster than the Titanic, and it seems like a good time to get one if you're planning to upgrade your PC or buy a new one; and of course, the bigger the better.

The last LCD we reviewed was the Acer AL2216W, now we have a similar 22-inch screen from Dell. Let's see if Dell can match the Acer's price and performance.

The Monitor

The elegant looking Dell E228WFP sports a full-black paint job and has a grainy bezel surrounding the screen. The power and OSD buttons are placed on the bottom-right of the monitor. It has a dual-color stand that is a little bulky, but provides good support for the huge 22-inch monitor.


The monitor has a 22-inch TFT LCD panel that can support a maximum resolution of 1680 x 1050 pixels at 60 Hz refresh rate. The screen has a response time of 5ms, contrast ratio of 800:1, and brightness of 300 cd/m2.

Unlike the Acer we reviewed, this product from Dell has both, VGA (D-Sub) and DVI-D ports. This means, it can have 2 input sources at the same time, and you can switch between them with the touch of a button.

The panel has a viewing angle of 160 degrees (horizontal and vertical), and can tilt (using the stand, of course) 4 degrees forward and 21 degrees backwards.

Is it worth going for this monitor which cost Rs. 16k at tech enclave. Viewsonic is 3k more. Will the price drop in future

hey i read that you can connect 2 sources to this monitor, 1: via dvi & 2: via vga. i have a samsung 19' with dvi an vga. is it possible to connect a computer and also a cable in cord to it? the cable is from the security system, and currently i have to keep a separate tv for that which i would really like to trash. the cable of the security system is a normal cable cord.

by Punk, Delhi, on Jul 14, 2007 12:12 AM, Report abuse   Reply

The cable u have is a composite cable (yellow color) . This monitor will not accept that cable. It may be better to go for video capture cards, most graphics card also have S Video ports which can also be used if u ur security system has that facility

Wonder why you mention max. resolution instead of usable resolution at 75 Hz or greater.

by badvt, Chennai, on Jul 14, 2007 08:41 AM, Report abuse   Reply

Concept of refresh rate is different in case of LCD. Very few LCDs can do more than 60Hz and unloke CRT it is quite usable in case of LCD because LCDs don't flicker.

by Subhajit, Kolkata, on Jul 14, 2007 03:35 PM, Report abuse

LCD monitors have a native resolution unlike CRTS. They run best at the native resolution and the DELL monitor has a native res of 1650 X 1080 as mentioned. This is the optimal res.
