Hi guys,

I'm looking at getting a new monitor. Could anyone clarify what the difference between these 2 monitors are?

I realise the H has a hdmi input, which would be nice but is not crucial.

I've read that the screen size is the same on both monitors, and that Samsung made a mistake on the specs list, but the L is still being listed as 23.6" vs the H as 24". Does anyone know for sure if they are the same (and are they both actuall 23.6" or both 24" if they are the same?) I've seen the L for quite a bit cheaper than the H and I don't think HDMI alone would be worth the extra money.

Any other differences in qulaity between both monitors?

It'd also be great to hear from people who own either of these, to say what their impressions of these monitors are. I also considered the BenQ EW2420, but the input lag / ghosting has put me off slightly.
 
Thanks for your replied PCM2. I've seen the EW2420 for a similar price to the B2430H. I've had a look through your thread discussing the pro's and con's of the BenQ EW2420. Was there any overall conclusion about just how bad the ghosting issue is, and whether it was worth it for the better image quality?

Also, do you have any idea if a EW2420 purchased now is likely to suffer the same quality control inconsistencies, or if this has been sorted out at all?

Thanks
 
Hi PCM2, thanks again for all your helpful advice. I've actually ordered a B2430L as it was on special offer for a little over 100 quid. I didn't think it was worth paying 50 more for the H. And the BenQ seemed a bit too inconsistent for my liking.
