Philips 20" 200W6CS Widescreen TFT LCD

Think waiting it out has paid off for me as I am 90% sold on this screen, any chance you can try an xbox 360 on it? also, any stuck or dead pixels? awaiting the in depth review :D

Cheers

Here is a picture of it in the dark.

Backligth bleeds is minimal, there's a little in the corners but hardly noticeable.

Nice mini review.

Looks like a great screen - and no backlight leakage!

Photos seem to exagerate the bleeding, so I bet in real life there is no bleeding what so ever. It looks a hell of a lot better than the belinea monitor displaying a dark image :)

I think I will be ordering this monitor soon :cool:
 
I have also just got one of these, and initial impressions are excellent, good viewing angles, good response.

The backlight bleed is exactly the same on mine as seen previously, hardly noticeable, but a little off in the likes of FEAR, but I'm so far very happy with my purchase.

I just notice the box (didn't notice before) that mine is a 05 model, not a 00, not bothered thou, Phillips might not have changed the box but still a bit odd. And the screen is excellent regardless which panel it is.

No, that's right. Remember that we found out that Philips upgraded the panel on both '00' and '05' versions to 8ms. The difference is that the '05' is for the UK, and the '00' for the rest of Europe.

It's the latest version you have as Gibbo confirmed all that they were the 8ms panels with high contrast.


Tell me more, anything !!!! :p
 
Ah, well that's not too bad then.

The instructions must have a spec page, check the response time and contrast quoted there :)
 
There's no printed instruction, but a standard Driver CD for the 200W6 which has the 16ms spec on it and a 600:1 contrast ratio.

The most strange of all, the model number on the BACK of the monitor itself is the 00 model !!!!!!!!!!

What is going on? Everything except the monitor suggest it is a 05 model with 16ms but the sticking on the back of the monitor itself is a 00 model. It really looks like Phillips have just updated the panel and nothing else, not the box or the CD that it comes with.
 
Don't they sometimes say the panel in the on-screen display ?

OR Get a screwdriver and find out the old fashioned way :eek:
