LG Flatron L227WT-PF

Unfortunately, this is the sort of claim that immediately sets alarm bells ringing and this case is no different. Fine, 5,000:1 may sound fantastic and makes for a great headline, but what does it look like in practice? Not good, to be entirely blunt. Switch to the aforementioned mode and everything becomes a mess of pitch black holes, beetroot red skin tones and extreme colours. It's all rather ugly and though it may fool anyone who doesn't know any better into thinking this monitor is capable of producing amazing colours and dark level detail, closer inspection proves otherwise.

[...]As ever, image quality is of the utmost importance and though LG has done its best to ruin things with its F-Engine Movie Mode, provided you ignore this option this is a very capable monitor. Based on a TN panel, which is no longer a source for great concern, the L227WT-PF sports a 300 cd/m2 brightness rating and this is certainly no exaggeration. It also boasts 97 per cent colour gamut coverage and this combination immediately impresses, producing crisp, bright and pleasing images.

[...]Though image quality is generally very good the LG Flatron L227WT-PF is let down by a lack of adjustability and features at a price that demands more. Were it to become readily available at closer to £200 then it may be worth a second look, but until then there are better designed monitors out there that offer similar performance but more bang for your buck.
