Philips 230WP7NS 23inch WUXGA LCD Widescreen Monitor - [hardware]
05:07 AM EDT - Apr,10 2006 - post a comment

Bona Fide Reviews posted a review of Philips' 230WP7NS LCD monitor. The 230WP7NS is a WUXGA (Widescreen Ultra eXtended Graphics Array) display that has a display resolution of 1920×1200 pixels with a 16:10 screen aspect ratio. Here's an excerpt:
To test the 230WP7NS we put the monitor through a series of tests including gaming, high-definition video, and a few monitor benchmarks. For gaming tests we used Half Life 2, Doom 3, and Battlefield 2. Colors looked good, darks very solid with hardly any back-light bleeding, and no noticeable ghosting. It seems ghosting isn't as much of a problem now-a-days as it was when LCD technology was first introduced; a majority of recent displays reviewed have had no problems. After games we loaded up our three LCD benchmarks (download them here, here, and here) that test for a multitude of things including ghosting, crosstalk, dead pixels, and color to name a few. We were disappointed to notice the display had a four stuck pixels scattered across the screen.

Lastly we of course had to watch some high-def video on this WUXGA display. Using Windows Media Player 10 we downloaded some 720p and 1080p movie trailers from this site. Running at 1920x1200, the 720p video looked good but was medium sized compared to the 1080p video which looked superb and nicely filled a large portion of the 23" screen.

Overall the Philips 230WP7NS is a good performer. Targeted towards small businesses and industry professionals, this display is not for the average consumer. The price tag of $1499USD retail, or $1007USD street, is a pretty good indicator of that. While disappointed with the 4 stuck pixels on the screen, the rest of our experience with the display has been quite positive. Dead/stuck pixels are currently the biggest downfall for many LCD's and because they happen seemingly at random there's no guarantee that the next 230WP7NS off of the line will have as many or as few stuck pixels as our model did. The 4 USB ports located on the monitor is a nice addition, especially in the business setting where a user may have quite a few USB-based gadgets that are connected and disconnected on a regular basis. Tilting and swiveling the monitor's screen is also extremely smooth and the resistance to movement is small enough to allow one hand to perform adjustments.
