Best 22" For £150??

Hi guys,

I'm going to be ordering a new monitor shortly and need to know what the best is for under £150.

I've got my eye on the Samsung T220 but can't help feeling that i'm overlooking others that may be better.

It will mostly be used for gaming and the usual browsing etc. No films or anything like that!

Looking forward to your suggestions,

Cheers!

I chose the Samsung T220 because the price is great for what you get, and it's great for gaming, etc.

hi, if you could maybe push your budget up a bit to £195, you can get a great monitor which has an e-IPS panel instead of your normal TN panel, will give you far better viewing angles and also the colours will be great http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-032-DE&groupid=17&catid=949&subcat= and also Dell has got great customer support

Fantastic! It was the price that got me interested but sometimes you get a bit suspicious about prices that low!

Thanks for your comments!

Yeh I was looking at this but don't really want to spend that much! I think £150 is enough to spend.

I understand how the colours will be better but the viewing angle for me doesn't warrant the extra in price as i'll be sat directly in front of it.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Viewsonic VX2260WM

It's pretty much identical to the T220 but without the annoying red tint.
