Looking for new 24" monitor

Bloodshed7 · 31 May 2009 at 18:46

I need to get a new monitor as mine is a tiny 17" and is very old. I'd love to have a 24" monitor which is around £200-£250 (if you can do less than that it's also good

). I want it to have HDMI and be able to wall mount it. I'm not sure what is good these days so I'd need some advice

Dell monitors are good value, see:

The ultrasharp is nice but out of my budget and the other dell has no HDMI.

this could be worth looking at

I have exactly the same problem, I heard some of the Samsung ones were quite good?

Yeah I heard that as well.

Just post any good 24" monitor, HDMI doesn't matter (adapter) or wall mountable doesn't matter (can get bigger desk)

What about this Iiyama, which is keenly priced and has HDMI:

Iiyama look after their customers pretty well, especially if there are any defects with the monitor and it needs returning.

Don't worry about lack of HDMI on a monitor, HDMI and DVI are pin compatible, they just use different plugs (and HDMI can carry audio, but these monitors don't have speakers, so no loss there).

I just bought a Samsung 2433 and for the price it's pretty nice - around £200. It has some backlight bleed but otherwise I'm pretty happy with it.

I'm thinking of getting the Samsung 2443, wall mount, DVI, Component (which I think will work with my xbox for HD and no decrease in quality over HDMI) and looks good.

plus one for samsung

plus two for the samsung!

Bloodshed7 · 1 Jun 2009 at 20:10

I can use the component imput for my xbox? Also does it come with wall mount included or do I have to buy one?

Doppleganger · 1 Jun 2009 at 20:34

You'll have to buy the wall mount separately.
